Same Shit, New Pope

I share JT Eberhard's disdain for Joseph Ratzinger[1]. He's a terrible person who's done the world terrible harm. He's probably the only person in the world who's done the world more harm after being a Nazi than while he was.

I hold no optimism that his resignation[2] will improve the Catholic Church. Their hate, lies about condoms[3][4][5][6], protection of pedophiles[7][8][9][10][11], and shitty treatment of women[12][13][14] aren't limited to just that one man. It's institutional. At best, the next Pope will be marginally better than this one.

The Vatican will continue getting Africans killed, and its members will continue to defend that despicable behavior[15]. It will continue its efforts to suppress women's rights[16]. It will continue to protect those who rape children.  It will continue to be bigoted toward homosexuals[17][18][19], Jews[20][21][22][23], and sometimes both at once[24].

It will continue to be the kind of organization who had a questionable relationship with the Nazis[25][26][27][28][29], was later led by one[30], and has done more harm to world than even they did.

It will continue being one of the most evil organizations[31] in the history of the world.  Just with a different monster running it, pretending to be infallible while pushing clearly fallible nonsense.
