God-fearing patriots will now have a choice to make on Saturday between watching Donald Trump’s military and birthday parade, and a special address by Pope Leo XIV.

The pontiff has announced plans to screen a video message and mass in his hometown of Chicago at the same time that the president’s multi-million dollar party will be happening in Washington, D.C. Tickets for the event, which is to be held at the Rate Field, home of the Chicago White Sox (Pope Leo’s favorite team), are being sold online at $5 each. As of Wednesday the 40,000-sea stadium was almost entirely sold out.

A prayer service, which is reportedly directed at young people of the world, begins at 2:30 p.m local time and mass will be held at 4:00 p.m. Both will be live streamed.

Wow, classical feces vs. turd choice. Why can't Americans just stop eating shit altogether?

But still, it is a nice trolling from the Pope.

Well, there's also the protests happening in pretty much every major US city as well, so there's a third non-fecal choice of there

Catholics are on are side in this. You reactionaries will throw all your allies out the window to preserve some mythical high ground you've never once held.

They'll have people in death camps, but at least you didn't have to be nice to people you don't like, huh?

Get some perspective.

Taking Christian doctrine literally is ridiculous and should be treated as such.

I hope you are able to find someplace to relax with fresh air, gentle sunlight, and shapely old trees with birds chirping cheerfully.

And I hope someone kicks you in the nuts you pretentious douche. Being passive aggressive is the cowards out in online arguments. Buck up or fuck off.

Have you tried turning the other cheek?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 18 hours ago

Turning the other cheek is what bullies want. Give bullies black eyes. That's how you stop bullies.

May you and peace find each other in a loving embrace, my friend.

He believes in literal demons. The world would be better off without Christianity at this point.
