In a stunning move, the University of Chicago announced that it will be canceling Pope Leo XIV\u2019s Religious Studies course titled \u201cCatholic Social Justice: Using Faith to Help People.\u201d The decision follows a $100 million federal cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a public statement, the University claimed that \u201climited enrollment\u201d and \u201cbad ratings\u201d were reasons behind their decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhile we respect the work of the Pope, he had terrible ratings and only five people enrolled. We reserve the right to prevent him from spreading his terribly-rated messages across our campus. We appreciate your attention to this matter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Dealer <\/em>contacted Pope Leo, who began answering in Latin, before saying \u201cOh shit! I\u2019m American.\u201d In response to his class not being offered due to funding constraints, Leo told the Dealer <\/em>that he had \u201coffered to teach the course for free.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTo spread the word of God is priceless, and in these trying times, it would be an honor to enlighten bright young minds in how they can use their faith for good. We are all children of God and would do well to lift one another up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n In other news, the University has agreed to a contract with the Trump Administration preventing future cuts insofar as its instruction remains fixated on \u201ccore American values.\u201d The Pope dispelled rumors that his course was removed due to this agreement: \u201cHow could my aims be antithetical to those values? This country was founded on principles of freedom, liberty, respect, and prosperity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Last week, following remarks the Pope made about protecting migrants, President Trump called the Pope \u201ca COMMUNIST loser who was VERY wrong about immigrants.\u201d He continued on TruthSocial: \u201cIf only he had to take in people with nothing who were ROBBING our great Country.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Dealer<\/em>, sensing a potential connection, hired detective Sherlock Holmes to investigate. When presented with the facts, Holmes replied, \u201cDo you want your money back? Of course they\u2019re fucking related.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Dealer contacted Pope Leo, who began answering in Latin, before saying \u201cOh shit!
