Wow, they should really give Oscar for the best movie to "Conclave".
Quote:Megyn Kelly Slams ‘Conclave’ Movie as ‘Anti-Catholic’ and Calls Out Religious Hypocrisy in Hollywood
Along the way, every single cardinal you meet in the Catholic Church is disgusting, except for the one liberal guy from America (played by Stanley Tucci) who is pushing for a bigger role for women in the church. But even he turns out to be pretty craven.
They are all gross. And in the end, the only one who has any virtue is the one who is secretly a woman and also maybe Ralph Fiennes, who plays the cardinal shepherding the process and allows said intersex person to become pope without telling anybody.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
