Pope Francis has come under the spotlight for his seemingly unexpected rock-hand sign during a religious event. Such actions have led to the rise of his theories about the Pope’s authenticity.
The pictures circulating online, which belong to an event in the Philippines, showcase the Pope with the ‘devil’s hand sign.’ The hand signal includes extended index and pinky fingers while other fingers are retracted.
Moreover, the hand sign appears in several manuscripts, especially of satanic nature. People used the sign to salute the devil, and later, rock culture incorporated it as a symbol of dark and heavy music.

They appeared in numerous devious institutions, along with inverted cross signs and unusual figures. As fans wondered about Pope’s relationship with such concepts, the Associated Press clarified the matter.
Additionally, they claimed that Pope Francis and Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Tagle saluted the crowd with the hand sign as it meant ‘I love you.’ The event hosted over 20,000 devotees, and the sign was one of the ways for the Pope to connect to the crowd.
Despite such clarification, Pope’s images have continued to haunt the internet’s dark corners, giving rise to new theories. A recent video highlighted several odd details in the preacher and his outfits.

In one instance, the Pope’s shawl included a Nazca Linie Atacama Giant figure. People have associated such figures with extraterrestrial beings. However, followers later stated that a local ambassador gifted the shawl to the Pope.
Similarly, people have linked a snake, a satanic animal, with the Pope because the audience hall of the Vatican appears like a serpent’s head. People considered such coincidences because many halls had been built before the Pope joined the Catholic movement.
Pope Francis has been called ‘too woke’ for giving a hopeful sign to the LGBTQ+ community!
Besides the satanic allegations, the Pope has been the subject of criticism from the right-wing community. Over the years, the Catholic Church head has said and done things that don’t align with the teachings.
The Pope made headlines as a woke religious leader after his support towards LGBTQ+ people. He even met with a group of trans women as part of his inclusivity message.
Moreover, the Church’s head had a personal session with a victim of abuse in Chile. The devotee claimed that the Pope felt upset and disturbed by the whole tragedy and stated that being gay wasn’t the problem.

However, people raised claims about how they interpreted the conversation. Many added that the Pope’s comment had aligned with the dismissal of violence, not with something groundbreaking as others believed.
Previously, in 2013, the Pope had said, “Who am I to judge?” when inquired about gay individuals visiting the Church. Later, in a BBC report, he stated that homosexual acts were sinful rather than the orientation itself.
Regardless, the apparent progressive shift created a drift among his 1.3 billion Catholics. Over the years, the Pope’s leadership has welcomed more people, including same-sex couples and divorced Catholics.
Some of the conservatives have claimed that the Pope’s behavior and shifts in ideology are backward. As conversations sparked, many referred to him by the nickname the ‘Pope of Surprises.’
