The Counsel of Trent

When can Catholics rightly criticize the Pope — and when does that cross a line?

In this clip from The Ben Shapiro Show, Ben Shapiro and Trent Horn discuss papal infallibility, prudential judgments, and the difference between disagreeing respectfully and dismissing the Holy Father outright. They also get into media bias, selective outrage from both left and right, Pope Francis, Pope Leo, and how Catholics should think about papal comments on politics, war, and public policy.

In this episode Trent uses 3 longstanding "Rules of the Internet" to analyze the Trump vs. Pope Leo Fued.

In this episode, Trent breaks down Louis Theroux’s Netflix documentary on the manosphere and exposes the uncomfortable truth behind red-pill influencers and OnlyFans culture: both sell fantasies to vulnerable young men. Whether it is promises of wealth, status, sex, or intimacy, these industries prey on dissatisfaction and turn despair into profit.

Is Catholicism a cult? That accusation falls apart fast. In this episode, Trent Horn shows why the word cult is often used in a sloppy, self-defeating way, and why many anti-Catholic arguments about obedience, canon law, and Church authority collapse under closer examination.
