The Vatican, the spiritual and administrative heart of the Catholic Church, faces an unprecedented financial crisis, with reports suggesting it is teetering on the brink of bankruptcy.
A combination of plummeting revenues, disillusioned donors, and mismanagement under Pope Francis has left the institution struggling to meet its pension obligations, Daily Express reported.
In 2023, the Vatican reported an operating deficit of $87 million, an increase of $5.3 million from the previous year. The shortfall stems largely from a dramatic decline in global donations from the Catholic faithful and the broader public. more
This Commie (not my Pope) is about as popular as a wet fart or Jackass Joe, but I repeat myself.
This communist faggot piece of shit anti-pope needs to be replaced with a real Pope from the ranks of Opus Dei ASAP.
He just has to threaten to excommunicate everyone who doesn’t pony up.
Would you contribute to the anti-Christ?
you mean the gays and socialists arent stepping up with donations?
The first nonCatholic pope. Get woke, go broke.Hd is an obama clone.
Next up: selling indulgences.
How much for an Eucharist?
only read the bold typed “headline”
good, fuck the vatican. let the rot continue
The worst part about the Nope and his participation in politics by pushing Socialism and praising Communism is that it will taint the Catholic church for generations with the knowledge that the church can be influenced an bought by Man’s bad actors!
I will always participate in the Sacraments of the Catholic Church and have a sweet little farm community parish I support but we quit giving $$ years ago.
About the same time I quit supporting the RNC
Sell off a couple of big hats; problem solved.
Look, just have a guy bring over a wafer or a dozen and I’ll give you loads of money from some tax or other. He doesn’t even need to bring that weak ass wine you all have, I’ve got PLENTY (hic!) of my OWN, in a cooler next to my ice cream freezer!
Bergoglio is not, never has been and never will be Pope, and every one who voted to recognize the bastard as such is not, never has been and never will have a shred of legitimacy whatsoever. Bergoglio is a progressive/Marxist/Satanist. Period. Full stop. As such he/she/it or whatever is going to do what they do.
… Under his leader ship, or the lack there of;;;;
reach under your dress, pull some $$$ out of your ass
Time to start selling off some of the treasures that are in the basement of the Vatican.
Meanwhile, the left wing United Methodist Church here in the US has lost about one quarter of its congregations, representing around half of their income. “Go woke, go broke” seems to be batting 1.000, worldwide…
Believe I heard somewhere that they’re one of the largest property owners in the world.
Probably more than Blackrock and others…
Maybe start charging more for all the illegals they assist and traffic in the states. That and as suggested by others, sell some of their shit
maybe the Vatican should cozy up to Ukraine – they’ve outlawed the Orthodox church. There is a lot of free money floating around I hear
Reminds me of an old song: “If Your Phone Ain’t Ringing, That’s Me Not Calling You”
In other words: If the collection basket is empty, that’s me not donating… to Catholic Charities, diocesan favortism and nepotism, Peter’s Pence, Vatican corruption, and sex abuse settlements.
