Pope Francis says nuns watch porn – 14 superior reactions
The Pope’s job is to guide Roman Catholics around the world in their spiritual journeys and in a Q&A post on the Vatican website, he was asked about dealing with the internet as a Catholic.
We’d have gone with ‘Don’t click on links that say you’re getting a tax rebate.’, but the Holy Father opted for ‘Steer clear of pornography.’
“It is a vice that has so many people, so many lay people, so many lay women, and also priests and nuns. The devil enters from there.”
He advised would-be priests to delete any porn apps or sites from their phones, but the BBC thought the nun angle made for a better headline.

Is that what they call the Holy See? Anyway, it was too great a temptation for tweeters to avoid.

etc. https://t.co/84brbARASN— Nick Pettigrew (@Nick_Pettigrew) October 26, 2022
Now, that’s how to go out with a bang, not a wimple. Got to go. Got three Hail Marys and a Glory Be to say as penance for the wimple comment.
