[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This question misunderstands the nature of the Catholic faith. The Pope is only considered infallible in very specific matters of church doctrine. His random thoughts about US politics are not that and hold no extra weight. —I’m not Catholic, but I do have a basic education[/quote] This is the correct answer. [/quote] Yup. And abortion is moral doctrine, the Pope can't change the teaching on that even if he wanted. Immigration is considered prudential policy and his musings on it have no authority over policymakers. [/quote] The Pope has no authority over US policy at all. --Catholic[/quote] When several Bishops call out Catholic politicians (Biden, Pelosi) for failing to impose Catholic views on fellow citizens, the Pope does have authority, and he is not an American.
