S04 E51: Habemus Papam (We Have a New Pope!)

A few weeks ago, we talked about the passing of Pope Benedict XVI. For Catholics who believed that B16 is still the pope, and Pope Francis is an anti-pope, if the College of Cardinals don't elect a new pope 20 days after his passing, the Seat of Peter will be vacant. This is against the teaching of Vatican I that says the Papacy will never be vacant. Lucky for us, and unbeknownst to many, a Papal Conclave was held. This link tells us the result (but don't get spoiled by it, listen to the episode first) --> https://www.fromrome.info/2023/01/30/53048/

Also, we'll talk about this Pope Francis' statement that "Homosexuality is not a crime" --> https://www.ncronline.org/vatican/vatican-news/papal-first-francis-backs-decriminalization-homosexuality-not-crime
