New pope, new pope thread, same old Catholic Church.

"Pope Leo XIV (born Robert Francis Prevost; September 14, 1955) is the bishop of Rome, head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of the Vatican City State. He was elected pope in the 2025 papal conclave on May 8, following the death and funeral of Pope Francis."



In his first address, he said "he was "deeply hurt" by events in Gaza, expressed hope for a "lasting accord" between India and Pakistan, and wished for a "authentic, true and lasting peace" in Ukraine."



"Pope Leo has just finished his news conference in Vatican City, during which he emphasised the importance of careful communication "in favour of peace"."



Nothing on the Catholic Church abuse scandals, but then, he's preaching to the converted who don't want to hear about that.
