Am I being overly cynical, or is the Pope more of a celebrity than a politician?
since the church has no military/economic power, his influence is purely cultural so yes the pope is basically a celebrity.
Wouldn’t the Catholic Church be closer to a corporation in that sense? With all the churches they own and the land those churches take up. Granted, even within that framing, the pope is arguably still more celebrity than CEO, if only because there is such contention with the Catholic Church and trying to make any sort of decisions that have broad impact on Catholic practice risks another schism.
