I hate the pope but I highly suspect he's not the one running his accounts

Exactly. Anyone thinking that it was the actual pope having a wank on Instagram is crazy.

Anyone thinking that it was the actual pope having a wank on Instagram is crazy.

First just stop to think about it. Obviously there are people that will believe that.

Next realize that some 'reasonable' and 'intelligent' people can be lead to believe that.

Then go one step further and realize the pope probably approved this as a marketing ploy. "Look catholics can be edgy and modern too!"

The catholic world grift, same as any grift, knows it has to get with the times, a world where cheap sex, public sexuality, and sewers of pornography flow like a river into the public square and the public consciousness, where it all is used to wash them of their culture and atomize them from history and tradition till only malleable (((individuals))) remain, existing at the whims of an ossified digital state-- the "modern man".

All these 'old powers' understand they have to recruit new generations, and with them also their opiates, and so they do. They buy-in to the new rome, the new babylon.

One can only hope some Islamic nation conquers Italy and purges the church. What a terrible loss of ancient relics and history that would be but at this point the church is limping and wounded by this pope.
