Did a Pope Get Pregnant? No—But there are More Scandalous Truths
from Philosophy All Along · host Philosophy All Along
#Conclave #Pope #PopeScandals Did a pope get pregnant? Nope. But one did sell the papacy. Another resigned and got imprisoned for it. And one pope allegedly died while having an affair! With a new conclave underway, it's the perfect time to ask: how has papal power actually been used? In this episode of Philosophy All Along, we bust the myth of the “pregnant pope” and dive into five true historical scandals—each revealing something deeper about pride, authority, and the moral risks of certainty. This isn’t just gossip. It’s a philosophical look at how institutions shape—and sometimes warp—the truth. 👇 Let me know in the comments which scandal surprised you most. 🔔 Like, subscribe, and stay curious.
