insulting the Pope on a forum

This pope is giving so many off the cuff, unrehearsed interviews, that the Vatican - and he himself - is forced to do continuous damage control.

He has directly or indirectly insulted and/or belittled orthodox Catholics numerous times, be they pro-life, opposed to homosexual marriage, teachers and promoters of NFP, those who attend the Latin Mass, or simple faithful Catholics sending him spiritual bouquets of Rosaries.

He says not to judge others but then he oh so humbly speaks of others as

"Pelagian!"

"Mr and Mrs Whiner!"

"Triumphalist!"

"Liquid Christian!"

"Airport Bishop!" 

"Leprous courtier!"

"Idealogue!"

"Long-faced, mournful funeral Christian!"

"Gnostic!"

"Careerist Bishop!"

"Sourpuss!"

"Pretender!"

"Liturgical obsessive!"

"Sayer of prayers!"

"Authoritarian!"

"Elitist!" 

"Querulous and disillusioned pessimist!" 

"Sad Christian!"

"Children who are afraid to dance, to cry, afraid of everything, who ask for certainty in all things!"

"Closed, sad, trapped Christians who are not free Christians!" "Specialist of the Logos!"

"Rosary counter!"

"Functionary!"

"Self-absorbed, Promethean neo-Pelagian!"

"Restorationist!"

And what pray tell do we do with a Pope who says not to judge others out of one side of his mouth, then does exactly that out the other?

What about not breaking the bruised reed?

Who is more reviled in this world, more bruised, than orthodox pro-life, pro-family Catholics?!?

Sorry, criticize me all you want, I'm just following the lead of our Holy Father. My criticism if that is what it is, is pretty minor compared to his list above.
