Okay but the corpse thing was actually hardcorr and we should still do that.

[–] ReconciliationTime22128@sh.itjust.works 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It was… something. I almost wish more had survived about it

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 16 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Imagine it, our narcissistic leaders would hate it. Not even death is an escape from the arm of the people.

[–] ReconciliationTime22128@sh.itjust.works 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

lol. You can imagine Trump putting Biden’s (soon to be) corpse on trial.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 8 points 5 days ago

Yeah but we also get to do it to Trump and then maybe we can eventually get some sort of hellish court thats so backed up everyone on trial is a corpse. Imagine it. We're already in dystopia anyway.

The term nepotism comes from the root nepot meaning nephew.

Nepotism comes from the practice of high-ranking clergy siring children, and then wanting to promote their bastards into choice positions. They couldn't claim to be the lad's father, so they'd instead claim to be his uncle. Thus the kid was his nephew.

That is mind blowing! Thank you for that interesting fact

"greed of gold"? What a weird way to phrase it.

This isn't really a shitpost, it could be funnier

[–] ReconciliationTime22128@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 days ago (2 children)

True. I couldn’t think of a better term for it. What I was getting at was absolutions. Which was the medieval payment of money to allegedly pay their way out of sin, which led to Martin Luther’s discovery of Sola Fide. It’s a fascinating piece of church history.

[–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Totally is, but I think if you deep fried this and added some dumb clip art this would be a shitpost instead of just an anti Catholic post.

My favourite thing from the first link above is that this dude is no older than 27 in this drawing.

Man, being the pope sure does take its toll…

IIRC there was one who held regular orgies at the Vatican, but I guess that can just fall under "adultery."

or dint get his soul reaped by DEATH, JD VANCE.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago (2 children)

One of them gave birth iirc

[–] ZC3rr0r@piefed.ca 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

That turned out to be a rumour. There's no proof Pope Joan ever actually existed.
