What’s he supposed to do? Dress up as batman and go punch bad guys?
Well, I mean the Pope could dress up as batman if he really wanted to, but what the Pope does in his private time is his own business. But, didn’t the whole crucifixion thing that the whole religion is based on come about because of a punishment for a crime? You know that pontius pilate thing?


An absurdity of what the Pope being tough on crime would look like. Dressing up as batman and punching bad guys? An absurd level of toughness on crime.
But for the pontius pilate stuff, the whole crucifixion came about as an execution for the crime ginned up by the Sanhedrin (a Jewish judicial body).
