This Papal takedown after he compared people to bats has just gone wildly viral all over again

Poke Staff. Updated September 22nd, 2022

Everyone loves a good takedown and this one is top drawer, a most expert response to Pope Francis after he said people were like ‘human bats’.

It’s from a couple of years back but it’s just gone viral again on Twitter and if you haven’t already seen it you’re in for a treat (and if you have, well, we reckon it merits another look).

The comeback came courtesy from the self-explanatory Twitter account @GiveBatsABreak and it took flight again after it was revisited by @BudrykZack.

Remembering the time the Pope used a bat-related metaphor and a pro-bat account countered with a scriptural argument in favor of bats pic.twitter.com/O3ap90mP4T

And here’s the thread in full.

Fabulously informed and beautifully, respectfully put. Magnificent stuff.

It's not often one is able to thoroughly dunk on the head pontiff but he called his shot and hit it outta the park. 10/10

This account now has possession of the Vatican treasury because they owned the Pope
