Pope Francis's death following a meeting with Vice President JD Vance has stirred controversy, particularly with reactions like those of Marjorie Taylor Greene. Though not a liberal, Francis faced criticism from both sides of the ideological spectrum for his positions on LGBTQ+ rights, abortion, and his approach to the war in Ukraine. Notably, he expressed sympathy towards Russia while seeking to mediate humanitarian issues, reflecting a consciousness of global dynamics as the first pope from Latin America. His legacy remains a mix of traditional values with attempts at progressive outreach.
"Pope Francis's death and the reactions to it highlight the complexities of his legacy, which straddled between traditional Catholic teachings and moments of progressive dialogue."
"Despite hopes from liberals, Pope Francis remained a conservative figure on issues like homosexuality, abortion, and cryptocurrency, often siding with traditional views."
