We find ourselves nodding, vigorously, as we read now his fourth address, in two weeks — aimed directly at Tangerine and Hegseth, who’ve both framed the war against Iran as being a divine right — and a Godly action. It is no. such. thing.
And the Chicago-native American Pope, in Italy — the leader of over 1.42 billion religious souls, worldwide, and over 75 million, in the US alone… is no longer mincing his words, thus:
…In his strongest words yet, Pope Leo XIV on Saturday denounced the “delusion of omnipotence” that is fueling the U.S.-Israel war in Iran and demanded political leaders stop and negotiate peace.
Leo presided over an evening prayer service in St. Peter’s Basilica… [as the] United States and Iran began face-to-face negotiations in Pakistan….
History’s first U.S.-born pope didn’t mention the United States or President Donald Trump in his prayer, which was planned before the talks were announced. But Leo’s tone and message appeared directed at Trump and U.S. officials, who have boasted of U.S. military superiority and justified the war in religious terms….
“Enough of the idolatry of self and money!” Leo said. “Enough of the display of power! Enough of war!”….
In the basilica pews was the archbishop of Tehran, Belgian Cardinal Dominique Joseph Mathieu. The U.S. was represented in the diplomatic corps by its deputy chief of mission, Laura Hochla, the U.S. Embassy said….
Praying for peace, Leo said, was a way to “break the demonic cycle of evil” to build instead the Kingdom of God where there are no swords, drones or “unjust profit….”
Now you know: Leo XIV is right.
We are neither omnipotent, nor clearly in the right, any longer.
We need to end this — accept Iran’s offer of… peace. Now.
