I have never been inclined to papiolotry, as opposed to a great appreciation for the office created by Christ and its vast history, but if I had been, this kidney stone of a papacy would have cured me of that affliction.

Meet new paganism same as old paganism.
At least in traditions doctrines which cannot be changed were securely professed.
I see the Pope has called for peace in Ukraine.
To support his inclinations, I’d like to see him spend a few days at Ukraine residential war scenes.

Had I not previously read a few histories of the Papacy, I would certainly agree with you. If he’s not the worst, he’s definitely near the top of that list.
I was very fond of Pius XII, the pope of my youth. They all went downhill from there.
