Europe and the Pope in the middle ages desperately tried to forge an alliance with the Khan, so if you are gonna blame Francis then you better complain about Christendom as a whole

By all means, blame “Christendom as a whole” why not, we are the worst gathering of people in the world.
I believe Jesus told us it would be so.
But, in all honesty, Snook, I feel absolutely NO guilt in what my predessors did to survive.
Much like right now. Still Faithful. Still Believe.
And still fighting the rascals who hate us.
Stop trying to apologize for this nut.
