They got a new POPE and he's AMERICAN!？ - Error Code Show

WEBVTT

00:00:00.819 --> 00:00:04.139
Hey everybody, we got a new pope There's a new

00:00:04.139 --> 00:00:07.080
one after only a couple of days in their conclave

00:00:07.080 --> 00:00:09.439
the College of Cardinals have elected a new pope

00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:12.960
Now personally, I had been rooting for Cardinal

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:16.760
pizza dance, right? Yeah, he was my he was my

00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.000
favorite, but the Cardinals went another way

00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:24.179
and shocked Everybody they elected the first

00:00:24.179 --> 00:00:30.039
American pope Robert Prevost, I'm not sure how

00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:32.759
to say his last name, of Chicago, Illinois has

00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:36.039
been elected to the papacy and taken the name

00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:39.439
Leo XIV. He was made a cardinal a few years ago

00:00:39.439 --> 00:00:42.000
by Pope Francis, and he's thought to be continuing

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.399
Pope Francis' kind of progressive push of the

00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:49.079
Catholic Church going forward. Jay, I know this

00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:51.920
is all fairly new news to you, but what is your

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:56.500
first reaction to a Catholic Pope from Chicago?

00:01:03.929 --> 00:01:12.010
Yeah, it's like Why do we care? Sorry, sorry.

00:01:12.129 --> 00:01:15.209
No, no, it's uh, if you've ever been to the the

00:01:15.209 --> 00:01:18.969
country, it's very very big very massive I got

00:01:18.969 --> 00:01:23.730
to go to the Vatican Was that two years ago two

00:01:23.730 --> 00:01:27.810
years ago now? Yes giant country someone say

00:01:27.810 --> 00:01:31.480
it's the world's smallest country, but No, they

00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:35.319
have a lot of cool shit. It is the largest branch

00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:38.760
of Christianity. Yeah. And the pope does have

00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:40.840
a lot of effect on kind of politics and culture

00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:45.719
and how things are moving. I've seen a lot of

00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:47.900
mixed reaction. Conservatives are not happy about

00:01:47.900 --> 00:01:50.439
this. This was not the guy they were rooting

00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:55.859
for. OK, well, here's my thing. One, get the

00:01:55.859 --> 00:01:58.340
fuck over it. You can't win everything. You can't

00:01:58.340 --> 00:02:01.480
win. the president of the United States and Congress

00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:04.819
and freaking everything and then want to also

00:02:04.819 --> 00:02:08.719
win religion. No. OK. Suck it up, you little

00:02:08.719 --> 00:02:16.680
snowflakes. Deal with it. Go cry and pray to

00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:22.219
the new pope. I don't know. Just going doubles

00:02:22.219 --> 00:02:28.349
the bears, the pope. Yeah, this was definitely

00:02:28.349 --> 00:02:32.710
a dark horse, a dark horse move from the College

00:02:32.710 --> 00:02:35.490
of Cardinals. Nobody again. When I heard it this

00:02:35.490 --> 00:02:39.530
morning, I was like, what? You know, now I did

00:02:39.530 --> 00:02:42.710
see some good jokes online that he would be excommunicating

00:02:42.710 --> 00:02:45.389
people for putting ketchup on hot dogs, because

00:02:45.389 --> 00:02:48.289
apparently that's a that's a Chicago thing and

00:02:48.289 --> 00:02:50.930
that the body of Christ is now a deep dish pizza.

00:02:51.710 --> 00:02:58.180
Oh, my God. We're going to go to church now.

00:02:58.460 --> 00:03:02.699
Like, give me pizza. Give me pizza. The big argument

00:03:02.699 --> 00:03:04.500
that's been going on a lot. I see this a lot

00:03:04.500 --> 00:03:07.219
within Catholic spaces is is there's this very

00:03:07.219 --> 00:03:09.219
big schism right now between what you kind of

00:03:09.219 --> 00:03:11.639
call cradle Catholics, which are people who were

00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:15.800
born into the religion and converts, adult converts

00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:19.800
specifically, because a lot of those adult converts

00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:22.000
are kind of coming from evangelicalism. Like

00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:25.659
they want that crazy. conservativism, but they

00:03:25.659 --> 00:03:29.639
think that the structure of Catholicism is more

00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:32.159
their way. But the people who are born and raised

00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:33.719
in the Catholic Church are kind of walking around

00:03:33.719 --> 00:03:36.960
going, why are you guys being so serious? Relax.

00:03:39.219 --> 00:03:42.659
I mean, most most Catholics who I know who are

00:03:42.659 --> 00:03:46.479
who are born into the faith are let's call them

00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:49.960
the more. It's it's almost a cultural thing and

00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:52.740
not really a religious thing for them, you know

00:03:52.740 --> 00:03:54.039
What do you what do you think with that? Do you

00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:55.599
think that that's probably where a lot of those

00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:58.139
adult converts are is? Evangelicals who want

00:03:58.139 --> 00:04:01.520
the ritual out of it So I actually just looked

00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:05.500
this up. I had to look this up. Sorry guys So

00:04:05.500 --> 00:04:10.620
I looked up so fun facts if you're born into

00:04:10.620 --> 00:04:15.300
the religion When you die and you go to heaven,

00:04:15.419 --> 00:04:18.279
you do get a fast pass for all the rides. Oh,

00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:20.620
really? Whereas if you're a convert, you don't

00:04:20.620 --> 00:04:22.160
get the fast pass. You don't get the best. You

00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:25.519
have to stand in line. So like, oh, it's you're

00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:27.920
still in the amusement park, but you don't get

00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:32.720
the fast pass. Right. You're standing. No, I

00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:35.579
think I think you're right. I think it's because

00:04:35.579 --> 00:04:41.839
like. There's a lot of. Rituals and it's very.

00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:47.939
I was never Catholic. Um, but it is kind of cool

00:04:47.939 --> 00:04:50.939
when you start thinking about like, Oh, this,

00:04:51.060 --> 00:04:53.360
this has been either a like standing gear for

00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:57.240
thousands of years or be like, we're doing the

00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:01.180
same motions. We're doing the same. I don't know.

00:05:01.899 --> 00:05:04.879
I don't want to say say on so dear. Uh, we're,

00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:07.540
we're saying the same like prayer that has been

00:05:07.540 --> 00:05:09.879
said for thousands of years. There is like that

00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:14.750
really kind of cool old. ritualistic feel that

00:05:14.750 --> 00:05:16.990
comes with like the Catholic faith. Faith. So

00:05:16.990 --> 00:05:21.129
I think I think you are correct. Yeah. And again,

00:05:21.350 --> 00:05:23.930
cradle Catholics repeat like. So again, from

00:05:23.930 --> 00:05:26.230
my background, my father was raised Catholic.

00:05:26.230 --> 00:05:30.250
He was Catholic. My mother was like non denominational

00:05:30.250 --> 00:05:32.790
Protestant kind of style. So I got both sides

00:05:32.790 --> 00:05:37.750
of it. Right. So I got to go to mass and crazy

00:05:37.750 --> 00:05:42.240
evangelical churches. Hmm. People who are raised

00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:46.439
in the Catholic faith, again, they view their

00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:49.019
faith, I think, very differently. Right. Like,

00:05:49.060 --> 00:05:51.019
again, because they're kind of born into it,

00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:53.560
they don't take it as seriously. It's just kind

00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:54.759
of like one of those things where it's like,

00:05:54.779 --> 00:05:59.300
it's always there, you know. And so watching

00:05:59.300 --> 00:06:02.000
these arguments is really fascinating to me.

00:06:02.259 --> 00:06:06.399
Right. To see them be like, you know, and also

00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:09.540
the Catholic converts tend to be a lot more culturally

00:06:09.540 --> 00:06:13.790
conservative. right small c conservative than

00:06:13.790 --> 00:06:17.310
like people who are raised within the church

00:06:17.310 --> 00:06:19.370
which you would think it would be the opposite

00:06:19.370 --> 00:06:23.110
right like that people raised within the church

00:06:23.110 --> 00:06:26.350
would be more conservative when when really it's

00:06:26.350 --> 00:06:28.509
it's the converts who who become more socially

00:06:28.509 --> 00:06:31.449
conservative than the people who are raised within

00:06:31.449 --> 00:06:34.970
the confines of the catholic church it's very

00:06:34.970 --> 00:06:43.610
strange to me yeah um Is kind of Is weird. Yeah,

00:06:43.610 --> 00:06:48.750
I mean, I also saw some reaction like USA USA

00:06:48.750 --> 00:06:55.930
Like Again there is a lot of people who believe

00:06:55.930 --> 00:06:58.930
that this because of if you actually by the way

00:06:58.930 --> 00:07:01.050
There was a bunch of people passing around the

00:07:01.050 --> 00:07:04.529
new Pope's Twitter feed Right because he was

00:07:04.529 --> 00:07:09.889
on Twitter Right his last few tweets were extremely

00:07:09.889 --> 00:07:13.370
critical of the Trump administration and Extremely

00:07:13.370 --> 00:07:15.350
critical of the American government and how they're

00:07:15.350 --> 00:07:19.670
treating immigrants and things like that so There

00:07:19.670 --> 00:07:21.689
is a belief that within the College of Card,

00:07:21.829 --> 00:07:24.110
obviously No one will ever know what was said

00:07:24.110 --> 00:07:26.410
by the College of Cardinals inside the conclave.

00:07:26.410 --> 00:07:30.339
It's still very very secret You know But there

00:07:30.339 --> 00:07:33.100
is a feeling that much like with the Canadian

00:07:33.100 --> 00:07:34.680
elections, the Australian elections being kind

00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:38.040
of a repudiation of American conservatism kind

00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:40.779
of rising again, that the College of Cardinals

00:07:40.779 --> 00:07:43.540
may have looked at this and said, what if we

00:07:43.540 --> 00:07:47.420
put in a progressive American pope, right? And

00:07:47.420 --> 00:07:49.220
that this is how they're meeting this moment

00:07:49.220 --> 00:07:57.660
in history, which I find to be fascinating. It

00:07:57.660 --> 00:08:02.319
is my only question here is how do you think

00:08:02.319 --> 00:08:12.259
our Jedi Trump is going to react if What was

00:08:12.259 --> 00:08:16.339
his name Pope Leo now Leo the 14th Leo the 14th

00:08:16.339 --> 00:08:19.459
starts bashing on America. How do you think Trump

00:08:19.459 --> 00:08:23.189
is gonna respond? him and vice president vance's

00:08:23.189 --> 00:08:25.389
uh initial responses were generally positive

00:08:25.389 --> 00:08:26.810
they're very nice apparently they're already

00:08:26.810 --> 00:08:29.129
trying to set up a time for the president to

00:08:29.129 --> 00:08:34.210
go see the new pope uh but i think yes i think

00:08:34.210 --> 00:08:37.049
if he's vociferously like criticizing how they're

00:08:37.049 --> 00:08:38.789
dealing with the immigrant situation everything

00:08:38.789 --> 00:08:41.350
else in the united states i think they will turn

00:08:41.350 --> 00:08:43.809
on him very fast now i think that the vp is much

00:08:43.809 --> 00:08:48.809
less likely to turn on the pope outwardly well

00:08:48.809 --> 00:08:51.519
he killed the last one right yeah He did, you

00:08:51.519 --> 00:08:54.120
know, he went and saw Pope Francis and the professors

00:08:54.120 --> 00:09:00.000
like, you know, so anyway, folks, let us know

00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:02.120
what you think down in the comments below. Are

00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:04.919
you excited for Merica Pope? Right. What do we

00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:07.340
think this new post going to be like? Were you

00:09:07.340 --> 00:09:09.679
were you following this? Were you fascinated

00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:12.720
by the smoke coming from the chimney? These are

00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:14.379
one of those lovely historical events that only

00:09:14.379 --> 00:09:16.360
happens a few times in your lifetime, so I find

00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:19.639
it very fascinating. Let us know what you think

00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:21.500
down in the comments below.
