The Pope Admits That Priests & Nuns Watch Pornography

Fact checked
Pope Francis

Pope Francis has admitted that even priests and nuns give into temptation and watch online pornography warning that it “weakens the priestly heart”

The Pope made the comments during a convention with seminarians in Rome, in response to a question about how the new generation of clergy could use social media tools to spread a Christian message.

He told the group to avoid temptation by deleting adult apps from their phones.

Sky news reports: Francis, responding to a question in the Vatican, said: “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 said he wasn’t referring only to “criminal pornography like that of child abuse”, but also to “normal pornography”.

The Pope urged prospective priests to delete any such sites from their phone “so you won’t have the temptation in hand”.

Francis warned: “I tell you, it is something that weakens the soul. It weakens the soul. The devil enters from there: he weakens the priestly heart.”

In 2020 there was embarrassment for the Vatican when the Pope’s official Instagram account liked a revealing photo from Brazilian glamour model Natalia Garibotto.

She claimed to have gained 600,000 followers as a result and Vatican staff launched an investigation into how it happened.

In Monday’s comments, reported on the Vatican website, the Pope also addressed the digital world generally.

  1. In an extraordinary turn of events, last Thursday, October 6, 2022, the vigil of Our Lady of Victories, just as Don Alessandro Minutella was preparing his evening talk, on the Radio Domina Nostra, it appears that the Holy Father has anticipated his request to declare the Apostolic See impeded.

    This declaration follows the Holy Father’s statements, that he is still the Pope, that he never abdicated and that he retains the Petrine Mandate. All of which Andrea Cionci has openly demonstrated in the newspapers of Italy during the last two years, WITHOUT anyone refuting him on the evidence. And now his book, “The Ratzinger Code”, is a best seller in Italy,

  2. [26] The fairies are not to be seized on, and brought to answer for the hurt they do. So also the ecclesiastics vanish away from the tribunals of civil justice.

    [27] The ecclesiastics take from young men the use of reason, by certain charms compounded of metaphysics, and miracles, and traditions, and abused Scripture, whereby they are good for nothing else but to execute what they command them. The fairies likewise are said to take young children out of their cradles, and to change them into natural fools, which common people do therefore call elves, and are apt to mischief.

    [28] In what shop or operatory the fairies make their enchantment, the old wives have not determined. But the operatories of the clergy are well enough known to be the universities, that received their discipline from authority pontifical.

    [29] When the fairies are displeased with anybody, they are said to send their elves to pinch them. The ecclesiastics, when they are displeased with any civil state, make also their elves, that is, superstitious, enchanted subjects, to pinch their princes, by preaching sedition; or one prince, enchanted with promises, to pinch another.

    [30] The fairies marry not; but there be amongst them incubi that have copulation with flesh and blood. The priests also marry not.

  3. God’s Kingdom is established upon His power and authority. Any institution/organization that claims the Name of God cannot truly be God’s if it rebels against His authority or His authority system. Seeing how so many priests have rebelled against the teaching of Christ, Is the high priest really an authority established by God? It would seem that he outs himself with his own rebellious acts.

  4. Prayer Against the Sins of the Flesh (28 July 1998)

    “Pray much for My youth . . . many will be lost due to (this) sin . . . I was naked in the sight of all men so that you shall defeat and kill the desires of the flesh which lead to this sin of fornication and adultery. Children, My adversary used this sin to claim all men to himself…Any sinner who constantly prays this prayer will gain true repentance…The more you pray it, the more (souls) will return to me and leave fornication and adultery. Many people will be lost due to the sins of the flesh. Work hard to save souls…”

    Holy and merciful Father, Your only- begotten Son is standing naked in the sight of all men, so that Your people will know and fear Your holy law. Accept my humble prayer for all Your people who are living under iniquity, fornication and adultery, that through all the shame and disgrace of Your only-begotten Son, You will touch their lives for repentance and save them. May they, through the Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ, which I plead to fall on their hearts, gain repentance and be saved. Through His shame make them bold for repentance. Amen.

    • Not likely they whose course of normal business everyday is Christianity dont know all the books and prayers.
      The question is why does Papa tell the world his brothers and sisters are pornography watching spawn of Satan What’s his intentions? To strengthen the church or tear it down? How would he know what they’re watching on their devices Is he spying on them all?

  5. Look at disqus the Enabler facilitating the dirty troll to use multiple identities to post his filth And they pretend they have standards Such frauds.

  6. “By there fruits ye shall know them”never more relevant. A simple case of Francis being caught out and back peddling, in futile attempt to hide the obvious fact that only he and he alone can puts likes to his own twitter account. The list of his sins just keep growing.
