Dear friends, I am pleased to get in touch with you through Twitter. Thank you for your generous response. I bless all of you from my heart.—
Benedict XVI (@Pontifex) December 12, 2012
An encouraging start from His Holiness, no Ed Miliband-style typos or accidental trolling of any of the other major religions. He’s no Dalai Lama though…

Andrew Pierce on Ed Balls…
“Porky Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls sweet-talked guests at a fund-raising dinner by saying if he wasn’t a politician, he would be a chef. That’s not surprising, since he was accused of cooking the Treasury books when he was Gordon Brown’s boot boy.”
Bloody foreigners, coming over here taking all our twitter followers
“Could Try Harder”, eg:
Carissimi, gaudeo ut loquar Twitter. Vobis gratias omnes animo de tua liberalitate responsa. Ex animo, vobis omnibus benedicat.
………et brutus si inat
whoops – it should have been ‘sic inat’
my slips are heeled!
I will not be following
Now Kebab just say 3 hail marys and bend over that pulpit while I show you my wrath.
one world government..so says the po.pe
age of consent in the vatican to remain at 12?
holy is a man with a hole.
father is kind.
so let kindness prevail.
but not only for those over the paywall.
they know not what they tweet
His Holiness should have set an example, and prefaced his Tweet with “+JMJ,” as all RC children who attend religious schools have always been taught to place atop a page when writing. (For non-RC’s, it is a sort of “PBUH.”)
You mean “attended within living memory”, and: AMDG – ad majorem Dei gloriam (to the greater glory of God)
Now sadly defunct
or – E&OE – and you’ll have to see our lawyers about compo
Pope tweets my hamster.
illegitimis non carborundum
“Thank you for your generous response.”
That’s a bit presumptuous, isn’t it?
He is thanking the 700,000 followers on twitter. Not bad after 2 weeks.
But nowhere near my 31,345,852.
And he can’t even sing.
Evil man
Hypocrite.
Yes, you clearly are.
Yeah, people are dying through starvation all across the world. You are contributing the population explosion. People live in fear of you and your mafia organisation.
But don’t you worry, Ratzi, you’re safe in your gilded cage.
Piss be with you
Yes dickhead and your government is promoting homosexuality and abortion and hiding the population decline with untrammelled immigration
Your proving darwin correct ,you are replacing your race with superior beings who were not propogandised in school and whose political leaders werent all brainwashed on ppe courses in the universities.
The war on global warming,food security,fuel security is a war on you
you’re reading an awful lot into someone’s distaste for that pernicious, ridiculous archaic load of nonsense that is the Catholic Church (and it’s not alone in that amongst organised relgions)
The likes of Guido might want to fawn over an old man in a dress and kid themselves that he’s God’s infallible representative on earth but the non indoctrinated amongst us realise the absurdity of of devoting one’s life to a book of fairy tales that has been written and rewritten by vested interests for hundreds of years.
Libertarian Guido is seemingly fine with unlected church representatives installed in positions of political power purely on the basis that they worship a similar sky fairy to him.
Seeing the insanity inherent in such garbage doesn’t make you a lefty warmist homosexual; it simply makes you less gullible.
Feeble minded nonsense.
You sound very indoctrinated (and hysterical) to me. Be careful, too much viewing of Dawkins’ website can lead to intellectual blindness.
Im not the one insisting that followers of Dawkins (who I find intensely annoying myself) are given positions of political power am I?
I’m the very opposite of indoctrinated, I’ll leave the blind devotion to oddballs like Guido and his fat mini me.
So the Pope delivers his first tweet on the 12th day of the 12th month of the 12th year of the 21st century. Coincidence obviously.
I believe tin foil hats are in aisle 666 of most Tesco’s these days…..
And you posted at 12:00
Look out for a black cat.
And Jesus had 12 Apostles.
It could be a miracle.
We will get him to bend to our will.
The pope should get a proper job.
“Thank you for your generous response.”
You won’t get one from me
So the Pope issues his first tweet on the 12th day of the 12th month of the 12th year of the 21st century. Coincidence obviously.
And the Great War ended at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the eighteenth year (“18,” a Kabbalistically significant number). (*Woo woo*) Cue the freakin’ music already:
FFS is this some sort of parody? An Italian comedy show?
Limerick from @twitmericks
The Vatican City’s big hitter
Is newly converted to Twitter
So follow the pontiff
& get what you want if
It’s blessings & not a quick titter
Tweets are the works of the Devil, they are Satans shite just like Quaker chocolate bars.
