A few days ago there was a Twitter spat between Jordan Peterson (3.9 million followers) and Pope Francis (18.9 million followers, not including the 1 million assumed-to-be Latin Mass supporters who follow him on his Latin account).
The news of this may fill you with delight or horror; or both. The Pope’s Twitter account usually contains a collection of short pieties which are intended to cheer the soul and not tax the mind. But on this occasion, Professor Peterson’s mind was not cheered (the jury is still out on his soul). He took issue with the Pope replacing piety with politics.
