184247, It's not the pope's job to be conservative.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Thu Oct-01-15 01:56 PM
You can absolutely be very liberal and very catholic. You can be catholic leadership and liberal.

It's possible to be the pope and progressive.

It's possible to be the pope and progressive on some issues and conservative on others.

There are points in history where religious people were progressive on certain issues.

I guess my point is that religious, christian or catholic (or even the pope) doesn't HAVE TO equal conservative.
