What Does the New Pope *Really* Believe? 1s6q62

It looks like we have a new Pope....and JD Vance hasn't managed to take him out yet. But what does the Pope actually believe and will his American identity undermine the more progressive legacy of Pope Francis? This week, I welcome back friend of the show, Dr. Kevin Carnahan, to address this issue! We talk about Augustinian theology, the misunderstood politics of the Catholic Church, and why Pope Leo XIV may dislike JD Vance as much as his predecessor. Listeners beware that there is a slight echo on my audio here. I had just purchased a new microphone and didn't have the settings exactly right during the recording of this episode.
