Pope Francis: Celebrity Tweets

Some celebrities chose to take to Twitter to trash the Catholic Church when it was announced that Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina would be the next pope.

Breitbart's Big Hollywood pointed out some of the ugly tweets.

A few examples:

The Catholic Church should do this new pope thing once or twice a year. It is really a great distraction from all the kid rape. #Conclave

How do we know that the black smoke doesn't mean that they are burning the black cardinals? #GottaAsk #TheyHaveDoneWorse #Conclave

The new Pope came out on the balcony, saw his shadow, and realized there was six more centuries of scandals.

It would be kind of funny if the new pope has a heart attack when he comes out.

Please Lord, let the new pope's first words to the assembled be, "Can you believe this shit?"

What's Latin for "bring me some boys"?

What slime!

I doubt these people have the guts to trash Islam the way they do Catholicism.
