Vídeo: Não, o Papa não substituiu o Natal por uma “Festa da Paz”

no the pope isn’t replacing Christmas with a feast of Peace social media users are claiming that Pope Francis has announced that the Catholic Church will celebrate a feast of peace or a party of Peace instead of Christmas this year some of the posts share the claim with a link or screenshot of an article from Argentinian news Outlet El cronista making the same allegation ultimately there’s no proof that the pope has made any such announcement the konista article has since been taken down and it had not responded to our requests for comment as of the time of this report the social media posts sharing the claim also provide zero evidence and rehash debunked conspiracy theories linking the pope to Satanism and others that he wanted to get rid of Christmas to appease Muslims Christmas is one of the most important dates in the church calendar and a central part of Christian doctrine indeed Vatican news the holy Seas news portal has already posted the schedule for the Pope’s liturgy during the Christmas season he’s due to hold Mass on Christmas Eve and address and blessing on Christmas Day and yet more masses on New Year’s Day and The Epiphany it’s possible that there was some confusion over the Pope’s previous Christmas messages and the idea of a feast of Peace in the past he’s used his Christmas message as an opportunity for call for peace drawing parallels between the life of Jesus Christ and current events for example last year he said that children dying in Wars including Gaza and The Wider Holy Land were the little jesuses of today pointing at their childhoods that have been decimated by violence he also said that Israeli strikes were reaping an appalling Harvest of civilians and condemn the attacks by Hamas calling for the release of Israeli hostages held in Gaza the year before Pope Francis uran enter the senseless war in Ukraine calling for peace and for people to help the homeless immigrants refugees and the poor [Music]
