"Is He a Fanta Drinker?"

I think its a nice, subtle way of asking whether Priests, Bishops, Cardinals, Religious Communities and Catholics in public life are loyal to the Pope and faithful to the Magisterium.

    Francis:

    Forget trad or schismatic, I dunno wot you've been drinking, but I'd say you're bordering on the Protestant with that type of attitude towards fanta ;)

    Fanta, every bubble is 'filled with faith'
