He has been protecting pedophiles in the past: https://willcountygazette.com/stories/671124585-if-he-saw-and-stayed-silent-he-s-not-a
That’s a job requirement with the Catholic Church.
Find a cardinal that hasn't
Somewhere there must be at least one, but he will surely never be considered for the position of pope. For that exact reason, obviously.
Still better than the other US candidate

But still worse than a good person
Yeah, with hirachic systems, it's not the nicest people climbing to the top.
With the catholic church, I'm happy when it doesn’t go back in time but slowly forward.
There was no chance that some Jesus type person with a completely white west would get elected, but there was a good chance that a completely soulless bastard would've risen to the top.
My first impression after hearing him, is that the catholic church has a chance to reform now.
Dolan would have been a disaster, as he's licking authorats boots and actively fighting to hide child abuse.
I see... So we just need to silently accept that the Church is and will be actively protecting pedophiles because reasons... Ok! Also you seem easily manipulated if what you have seen makes you say that "the catholic church has a chance to reform now". Bro, for fuck sake, wake up! This guy is the classic conservative piece of catholic shit against women, homosexuality and so on...
You read an article on the willcountygazette and formed a very strong opinion begging me to wake up, and got the audacity to call me easily manipulated?
Maga loathes the guy and calls him woke. If that isnt an indicator...
What's the opinion you talk about? That Prevost is a protector of pedophiles? I call that a fact. Another fact are his own words about homosexuality. That a group of fascists don't like him don't make him automagically less conservative and definitely don't mean the church is going to "reform", especially after two thousands years of the same bigot shit.
