Pope Francis dropped an F-bomb during his Sunday prayer at St. Peter's Square

“If each one of us does not amass riches only for oneself, but half for the service of others, in this f–k [pause], in this case the providence of God will become visible through this gesture of solidarity,” Francis said to the faithful gathered in St. Peter’s Square, Italian media reported.

Did you actually read the article at the source? There is no lie, no spin, just the story. If a news article portrays anything Catholic in other than glowing terms, it is considered Catholic bashing by some. The man made a mistake, that’s all the article brought out.

[Gamecock]

Maybe!

[FreedomOfExpression]

Actually, the earliest explanation was at the source article.

[Gamecock]

So you are the arbiter of all that is good and proper for FR?

I thought this was FR, not the other site.

But it wouldn’t be an F-bomb that he dropped.

It was a C-bomb.

[Gamecock]

Oh, search Google News for this. It’s viral. You are going to hear about this in the morning when you examining people’s pinky toes.

Just remember you heard it here first!

[EDINVA]

Your explanation ruins all the fun, tho.

DPM? Detroit People Mover?

[Gamecock]

Save for later to refute Libs

I’m sure the left and other idiots will have fun with this.

This thread, on the other hand, has been above reproach.

[crusty old prospector]

So, it sounds more like a D-Bomb.

From the article:
“..His Holiness meant to use the Italian word for “example,” which is “caso.” Instead, he used the word “cazzo,” which Italians use as a synonym for the four-letter obscenity....”

It would appear that he was speaking in Italian... and just sort of screwed up.

This just lends itself to SO many jokes though...

RE: You’re talking about Peter? he was not a Pope, he was a disciple.

That’s why I used the modifier — ‘so called’.
