    What happens if they hit the pope with the pipe hammer and he sits up and screams “Ow!” ??? 🤔

    • jellyfishhunter@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      The hammer deals holy damage, so it’ll be very effective to keep hitting.

      I’m guessing the college of cardinals makes that decision on a case by case basis.

    it’s fun, but alas, false.

    • Kommeavsted@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      The snopes article doesn’t say it’s outright false, just that it’s not based on available evidence. So stating it as fact rather than rumor is misinformation.

      The Vatican has failed to deny it for over 20 years of inquiry. The impact of this claim is benign compared to pretty much anything else the church has factually done.

      it’s funny and harmless, meme on.

      source
    • lazyViking@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Yes, that is the definition of a factoid

      source
      • juliebean@lemm.ee ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        i had never heard that definition of factoid before this thread, personally, so i figured folks might appreciate a source. *shrugs*

        source
  • papalonian@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Fun fact: the word “factoid” means a false bit of information that is being passed as fact. It doesn’t mean “a small interesting tidbit of information”.

    Though I suppose the official definition will be changed since the proper one is seemingly dead

    source
    • Fetus@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      A really fun factoid is that factoids being false information is not actually true!

      You know, it should be obvious, but until you brought it up here, I was guilty of thinking of it as just some colloquialism (which it very well may be). But if you think of the suffix -oid, taking “humanoid” for example, you get something that isn’t presenting itself as a human. But I didn’t come to that conclusion, I just was like, wow, they bop the Pope with a hammer.

      So thanks.

      Which means that OP used factoid correctly.

      source
    • Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Yeah, most lexicons being descriptive rather prescriptive makes etymology one hell of a twisted labyrinth. I agree it’s important for a lot of reasons. The last thing we need right now is a State enforcing some kind of “Newspeak”

      If they were physicists they’d hold the tip of the handle with a pinching gesture, then pull the hammer back to horizontal and let it drop. Swinging with a perfect arc it would thud into the pope’s head with just enough force to hurt anyone who was still alive, and get a response.

      However seeing as they’re still using a hammer to test for brain activity - we can assume the Catholic Church isn’t that friendly to science or something.

      source
      • DocMcStuffin@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        I shit you not, it took the Catholic Church until the 1800’s to finally accept that the Earth revolves around the fucking Sun. Maybe the 1750’s if someone’s feeling generous, but they were still censoring Galileo’s and Copernicus’s books at that time.

    • frezik@midwest.social ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Oh, they did. Telling if someone was really dead was difficult until modern medicine figured it out in the last century or so. People got buried alive by unwitting village elders all the time.

        it was common enough that the “Safety Coffin” was invented to help deal with it. If you heard a bell ringing in the graveyard, someone was alive down there.

      It’s unclear. The Vatican denies it, but apparently weirder methods have been used to certify the passing of a pope before, so who knows.

    • Ferrous@lemmy.ml ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Same. I had to look it up. In doing my deep research, I learned that they used an EKG on Jonny P II to confirm his expiration. That shit’s hilarious. It was someone’s job to EKG that OBVIOUSLY dead corpse, lol.

      • GoodLuckToFriends@lemmy.today ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        Eh, a lot of the time EMS will do the same thing on a corpse call. It’s one of those ‘dot your is and cross your ts’ things. I’ll give the JPdub EKG a pass.

    Isn’t that what JD Vance did when he visited the pope, killing him?

    Since the Trump administration thrives on falsifying news, can’t we go in the counter offensive by mass spreading JD Vance killed the pope? I think this would be so funny and his dumb fanbase might actually believe it and start to hate him for it.

    Nono, I remember this from JPII’s death. They yell his birth name 3 times into his room and then they use the hammer to smash his ring and seals. Dude was in a coma for a just long enough for us to hope for a Undead Pope -> Emperor on the Golden Throne situation.
