Good, let me convert to satanism to make up for it.
I hate how they are treating religions differently in my country. We are supposed to be secular.
Jehovas Witnesses were again at the local market this morning.
Religion is disgusting. Not my thing.

wikipedia says 47% of the French population is Catholic. That’s more than 33M people.
And while Francis have been in France he have never made a visit in the traditional sense, he was there for specific events eg addressing European Parliament and Council of Europe so it’s been nearly two decades since Benedict’s visit.

I was there, it was the second time I saw pope Leo XIV (first time was in Rome in April) but it really feels nice to see all these people from all walks of life and from all of France come together for this magnificent mass.
Religion does come from the Latin “religare” which means “to link” after all
