Infallibility only prevents you from loving up so bad on doctrine that it gets people sent to Hell.

Once you're just an ex-Pope, you'd be far more canny to just tell people that you're using infallibility and then lie to them, damning them for eternity.

Is there a history of ex-popes? I assumed they always just died of old age and then we're replaced with the slightly newer model.

I say this as a former catholic who never paid that close of attention to the pope.

Time for some Content from donut twitter: some #resistance dipshit steals images of an african model to pass off as their profile while they scream at berniebros, gets called out for using those images, locks account and calls for a mass report of the person who caught them out.

Be thankful that the neoliberal faildaughters who got into the DCCC are incompetent nepotism cases, and keep them well away from political power.

I think maybe three popes including Benedict have left office voluntarily instead of just dropping dead. The last papal resignation was in the 1400s or some time equally absurdly long ago.

EDIT: Wikipedia says only five popes have ever retired, and besides Benedict the last was Gregory the something-or-other in 1415.

Ex-popes can take levels in anti-pope to get a version of their excommunication powers. Their levels stack so there's no reason not to become anti-Pope. You might want to dip a level of rogue for better backstab though.

i think a few years ago the line was that the accusations were anti-catholic bigotry so its really really convenient for them that the first pope to be mildly non-homophobic is also the first pope to acknowledge the whole child sex abuse thing

Elizabeth Bruening, kindest person on Twitter and three times the Catholic I'll ever be, was absolutely furious at the Church for its handling of sex abuse cases, and you still had shitheads calling her a bad Catholic in TYOOL 2018.

If you're not rooting for a fire-and-brimstone cleansing of the ranks at this point, then something is really wrong with you.

Its like with objectivism, only two kinds of people are objectivists

a. rich people who want to stay rich
b. poor people who think they are only held back from wealth by taxes and regulation

Like, no one is an objectivist who also believes they would be at the middle or bottom of society. All objectivists intrinsically believe they would personally thrive in their ideal environment.

You can end sentences with prepositions. I give everyone permission as an English teacher.

Better yet, grammatical correctness is not as important as ideas.

Just because you think you speak English Ben, doesn't mean you know how to correct other people's grammar. Also you're racist.
