Ogni Morte di Papa
Published at 09:21 on 22 April 2025
The title of this entry is an Italian saying that literally translates literally to “with every death of a pope,” and idiomatically to “once in a blue moon.”
Well, it happened, and it was inevitable. And odds disfavour the next pope being as liberal as the current one is, simply based on the pool of most likely candidates. My hope is that he’s at least not going to be a raging fascism-abetting reactionary who goes around loudly praising the likes of Trump, Netanyahu, Putin, and Orbán.
