danny’s Reviews > Jesus Wept: Seven Popes and the Battle for the Soul of the Catholic Church > Status Update

it's so hard to get through this just because pope benedict was a racist nazi

yeah so john paul ii was just racist, nothing groundbreaking

so i didn’t know about opus dei’s self-proclaimed rivalry with the jesuit order, which makes it ever more sweet that pope francis came after benedict and effectively crippled them

joseph RATzinger is proof the pope is not infallible and i'm glad we course corrected with francis and leo. i have discovered that i really love narratives that spread over the course of over a century, with characters coming in that will be important later

the duty of every catholic is to be a revolutionary
