My guess is he meant “pinnacle of creation” or something to that effect and misspoke. I want to believe he was just sloppy and it doesn’t mean a profound misunderstanding on his part. He is the pope after all.
A "sloppy" pope? OK...but I think he thinks that Jesus was a socialist, like the pope is.
I didn't leave the RC Curch, the RC Church left me...years ago.

He seems to misspeak a lot.
