A poor church, for the poor? A nice sentiment, but I don't think that'll go down well in Vatican City. Good luck to him in his attempts to reform the place and the organisation. He's started off in the right spirit.

I see the argie president has gone whingeing to him about the Falklands. I hope he told the wrinkly faced bitch to **** off.
POPE Francis has opened his inaugural mass by engaging the front row in a few minutes of cheeky chit-chat. The new Pope confirmed his informal, off-the-cuff style by picking on crowd members at St Peter’s Square with distinguishing characteristics. Pope Francis said: “So…any Catholics in today?” After his initial question met with a deafening cheer, the Pope continued: “How about anyone from a small provincial village?” Having elicited a show of around two hundred thousand hands, the Pope then chose a man in a hat, asking him what his name was. “Domingo,” came the reply, although the Pope deliberately misinterpreted this as ‘Domino’, for comic effect. The Pope said: “So, Domingo, God tells me you’re a homosexual.” After a short pause, the Pope continued: “Just messing with you, no seriously it’s going to be a great mass today.” Cardinal Angelo Sardano tweeted: “Pope Francis is absolutely smashing it!”
POPE Francis has urged Catholics not to waste their valuable time on caring. In his first Pope speech, he said the church needs to start dazzling people with really good prayers and even bigger incense burners if it is to move on from just being ‘a big sex club’. Francis said: “Without praying to Jesus, we’re basically just Liberace impersonators who eat fish on a Friday and tell people where to put their orgasms. “So let’s really think about these prayers that we’ve been doing. Should they include more celebrity gossip? Are they loud enough? Should we shout them in an angry voice?” He added: “The New Testament actually has very little to say about compassion. At least mine doesn’t. Then again, I did steal my Bible from a hotel, so maybe it isn’t a very good one. I really wouldn’t know.” Francis wants the church to take on ‘new and exciting challenges’ including a relaunched Inquisition, insisting it would make the Church ‘unbelievably relevant to a wide-range of people’. The Pope also warned that without more chanting Catholicism ‘could end up as an NGO, like those scumbag hippies at Amnesty and Oxfam’.
