Yesterday was the anniversary of Pope John Paul II’s death. Someone yellowfaced the Pope in Lódź (Poland) and wrote “Maxima Culpa”, which is latin for “maximum guilt”.

  1. Sinead O’Connor was on the right side of history. Her tearing up JP2’s picture on Saturday Night Live ended her career but it made the world pay attention to the atrocities committed by the church.

  2. As an Italian living near Rome, I know this guy had a LOT of skeletons in the closet. The scandal of Banco Ambrosiano, cover to pedophiles, stupid turbo-right leaning world view, leaving cardinal Romero to die alone… He did a lot of bad stuff and for sure didnt deserve to become a saint. Disgusting decision, honestly.

  3. Maxima culpa is from the Mass, “mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa” is the confession done before the eucharist is blessed.

  4. Fuck him, he covered up child abuse by the church as an archbishop, he certainly didn’t do much against it as a pope either.
