Exactly. We'd be happy to send them to Vatican City since they are such better, more charitable people.

Leo has been nothing but very conservative thus far and consistently voted republican. He even took the effort to vote republican absentee. Some random bishop in California doesn't speak for Leo. But please, continue the standard politics board pope hate

Probably a good idea to pretty much ignore what Popes and bishops say when it comes to this sort of thing.
