A king in medieval Europe warning the Pope not to talk about the Bible? That\u2019s what you just said. You know how stupid you sound, right?\u201d Scarborough said, kicking off a heated rant in response to Vance\u2019s comments. \u201cYou know how stupid you sound when you, new to the Catholic Church, are lecturing, Mr. Vice President, the pontiff on theology and telling him he should not quote the red letters?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople will look back one day and laugh when they have the safety of distance that you actually have a vice president sitting on stage warning the Pope, God\u2019s representative here on Earth for the Catholic Church, what he can and cannot say about theology,\u201d Scarborough added, calling Vance\u2019s comments \u201cutterly bizarre.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMorning Joe\u201d co-anchor Jonathan Lemire chimed in near the end of the segment, wryly remarking, \u201cThere\u2019s a short list of people who probably can weigh in on matters of theology. I think the Pope [is] probably on that list. That\u2019s just my guess.\u201d You can watch the full \u201cMorning Joe\u201d segment yourself below.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hr2ck70hOVM?si=uaZZtcNtgWWJp9QD\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Scarborough additionally defended the Pope for urging for peace and called out Republicans who have criticized the religious representative for commenting on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/media-platforms\/politics\/ann-coulter-end-iran-war-trump-video\/\">the Iran War<\/a> but not for other political topics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis concern is not geopolitics. His concern is not the fighting. His concern has to do with peace. He is concerned with the teachings of Jesus Christ,\u201d Scarborough noted, adding, \u201cI never hear those warnings when he\u2019s talking about abortion. I never hear those warnings when he\u2019s talking about traditional marriage. I don\u2019t hear those warnings when those warnings align with his political views.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut there\u2019s a war that, let us just say, started with the killing of over 150 young girls at a school that the United States lied about initially \u2026 Is the Pope going to get involved in that? Is the Pope going to be concerned about that?\u201d Scarborough mused. \u201cDoes the Pope think that Jesus Christ cares whether it\u2019s Americans or Iranians or people from other countries who are winning or losing wars? No.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Pope would probably believe, like another guy from Illinois, Abraham Lincoln, that his concern is not whether we are on God\u2019s side, but whether God is on our side,\u201d Scarborough concluded.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/media-platforms\/politics\/morning-joe-trump-jesus-photo-controversy-video\/\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thewrap.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Morning-Joe-4-14-26.jpg?fit=300%2C169&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Mika Brzezinski, Joe Scarborough and Willie Geist co-host the April 14, 2026 edition of \"Morning Joe\" (MS NOW)\"   data-portal-copyright=\"TheWrap\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\">\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> Alex Welch<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/media-platforms\/journalism\/morning-joe-jd-vance-pope-iran-war-video\/\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cMorning Joe\u201d host Joe Scarborough laid into Vice President JD Vance Wednesday morning for saying that he believes the Pope should be \u201ccareful\u201d when talking publicly about public policy and theology, remarking, \u201cPeople will look back one day and laugh.\u201d \u201cWhat are you?
