"If someone is gay..."
Speaking of which, Vanity Fair has an interesting article on the now-infamous gay lobby in this month's edition:

'Functionary!'
Sourpuss, perhaps or rather eh, ah, no
"Liturgical obsessive!"; "sayer of prayers!";
"triumphalist"
"authoritarian"
"elitist"
"ostentatious"
"moralistic"
was the Pope looking in the mirror when he threw all these out? It's uncanny.
"Sourpuss"
"Pretender" (possibly said of OLJC Himself)
Rosary counters!
He set my radar off from the first moment he appeared on the balcony. Something is seriously amiss. The name calling alone is unworthy of the office.
Anthony Braincin
yes I too noticed that there was something off-- even at the balcony. His blessing was even less than perfunctory-- almost disdainful-- it certainly wasn't carefully done.
I can hear the Francis apologists: "Jesus insulted people too, you know. He called Herod a fox and some white-washed tombs."
"poison of immanence" - although I haven't a clue what that means.
“ for authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence.”
Not only not absurdly PC, but false, and showing great insensitivity towards those Christians in the Middle East, Pakistan, and now Africa, who are being daily persecuted and murdered.
Is it just Papal insults you are collating or are you interested in recent invective coming from Archbishop Bergoglio as well?
If the latter, then the following has to be a bit of a classic:
"Journalists sometimes risk becoming ill from coprophilia and thus fomenting coprophagia"

I do hope he doesn't have first-hand experience of these vices.
Seriously, these nonsensical, inconsistent and incoherent ramblings appear to me to be merely those of a confused, if physically energetic, old man. How far does he have to go before people understand that he's 'lost it'?
i have a serious question: has anyone heard Francis ever talk about the importance of being/staying in a state of grace? persevering in grace? I have yet to.
i may be wrong so please someone refer me to a passage.
@ JB
There is no such passage. I would be happy if he just said “go and sin no more”. But seemingly this “call to action” is not modern(istic).
A trendy message is this:
Francis' message to university students: "YOU MUST LIVE, NOT JUST EXIST"
You must not be spectators but protagonists” in the “challenges” the modern world throws at you. Don’t be mediocre, bored or like everyone else. “You can’t live without facing challenges,” “don’t stand on the sidelines; fight for dignity and against poverty.” This is the lifestyle Francis advised young people to lead, in the first meeting with university students since the start of his pontificate. (…)“Please don’t look at life from the sidelines, go an immerse yourself in challenges, in life, in development, get involved in the fight for people’s dignity, against poverty, in the defence of values and in so many other struggles we face today,” Francis urged. http://vaticaninsider.lastampa.it/en/the-vatican/detail/articolo/francesco-francis-francisco-30313/
I look forward to receiving my copy.
It will be a delight to be able to use so many insults while still avoiding being judgemental.
I do seriously wonder if he has dementia. "Rambling" is the kindest one can say about some of the utterances.
Perhaps you could translate that passage for me? It could be some socialist ideologue giving an extempore pep-talk to his people.
Yes. Plainly false. All I can think is that the Vatican is so scared of terrorism that mindless drivel like this keeps flowing out.
His favorite one: "Idiologues"
Also: Lepers, rigid, backward.
No Catholic God
Proselytism as nonsense
Idiologues
Rigid
Lepers
Please stop writing nonsense and pray for the Holy Father!
Long faced!
Mournful behavior!
Behave as if going to a funeral procession! (um, maybe they are?)

Thanks for this. I'm saving 'Self-absorbed neo-Promethean Pelagian' for the next time someone tells me they think Francis is so much better than Benedict, because 'You can understand what he says'.
Today's papal homily is a gold mine!
http://vaticaninsider.lastampa.it/en/the-vatican/detail/articolo/santa-marta-30604/
Inspiring, no?
Absolutely think he is spot on.
"Ideologue of the Logos!"
that one seemed aimed at his predecessor
Anonymous: Where did you find "ideologue of the Logos"?
I have been puzzling what it could mean. The word Logos makes me think of the opening of St John's Gospel and the identification of the Logos - Word - with Christ. Ideologue means a theorist of some ideology. So "ideologue of the Logos" can just mean a theologian? However in Pope Francis's vocabulary he generally gives a pejorative meaning to "ideologue" as somebody obsessed with some ideology such as Marxism. But how can being obsessed with Christ be bad? Puzzling but perhaps if you could point us to the context it might be clearer?
“It is an ugly thing when one sees a Christian who does not want to lower himself, who does not want to serve, a Christian who parades around everywhere. It’s terrible, no? That person isn’t a Christian: he is a pagan! The Christian serves (and) lowers himself,” said the Pope on Dec. 18 in St. Peter’s Square."
Pagan!
Nicolas Bellord, Don't be surprised that Pope Francis is so unclear about "ideologue of the Logos." The Pope is always unclear - that's his trademark.
Maybe Bones should retitle this book, "Francis's Little Book of Insults and Head-Scratchers."
Hmmm, I thought "little monsters" were the fans of Lady Gaga, but apparently the term also refers to religious with poor formation:
http://cnsblog.wordpress.com/2014/01/03/wake-up-the-world-quotable-quotes-from-pope-francis-meeting-with-religious/
Bemused, it refers to religious with GOOD formations. This is another attempt to put down the orthodox and the prayerful religious who focus on Christ Himself.
Sweetness, Little Monsters, And Hypocrisy
Below are a few statements and actions made by Pope Francis during the first week of 2014.
Francis said, "I think about the temptation, that we may have, or many others have, to announce the Gospel with 'inquisitional beatings,' with condemnation. No! The Gospel must be announced with sweetness, with fraternity, with love!”
OK, that's a good statement even though it could be taken to imply that Catholics who have strong morals participate in '"inquisitional beatings" of others.
(What does Francis think of St. Anthony who was known as the hammer of heretics or John the Baptists moral preaching to Herod?)
http://cnsblog.wordpress.com/2014/01/03/wake-up-the-world-quotable-quotes-from-pope-francis-meeting-with-religious/
In the same week Pope Francis told us to announce the Gospel with "sweetness and love" he said these things about faithful Catholics.
"Seminarians who grit their teeth and wait to finish, follow rules and smile reveal the hypocrisy of clericalism - one of the worst evils!"
"Religious need to wake up to the world or risk becoming "abstract ideologues or fundamentalists."
About seminarians "You have to form the heart, or we will make little monsters. And then, these little monsters form the people of God."
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/pope-francis-warns-priests-can-become-little-monsters-if-they-are-not-trained-properly-9037708.html
So Francis accuses others of participating in "inquisitional beatings" on the same day he calls Catholics who follow the rules hypocrites and evil.
He calls other Catholics "abstract ideologues or fundamentalists" and says other Catholics are "little monsters."
In the same week Francis tells us to announce the Gospel with "sweetness and love" he uses the harshest possible language to describe his fellow Catholics.
Or is Francis telling us we when we speak to others it is "sweetness and love" to accuse them of being "abstract ideologues or fundamentalists," hypocrites," "evil," "little monsters," or that they are responsible for "inquisitional beatings?"
Or is Francis reserving the right to use this critical accusatory language about those he does not like while we are suppose to respond to the culture of death only using sweetness?"
What are we to make of the fact the Vatican has hired one of the worlds leading homosexual promoting corporations to advise them?
http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/engel/140101
Ernst and Young is one of the most effective corporations promoting homosexuality worldwide - and now they are on the Vatican payroll in an absolutely essential and hugely influential position. Adding insult to injury, just a quick review of the policies of the other three advisory firms recently hired by the Vatican to reform its administrative and financial practices reveals a pro-homosexual pattern similar to that of Ernst and Young.
This is a scandal beyond words and Satan must be loving it.
It's a few days old, but I thought "heart as sour as vinegar" was a good one.
“I’m reminded of those religious who have a heart as sour as vinegar: they are not made for the people." -- from the meeting with religious superiors.
Brilliant. I would buy this. If we can't do anything to change a mediocre papacy, at least we can laugh about it.
p.s. see, we are not sourpuses after all!

This site makes no sense, it claims to be Catholic and has pro-papacy propaganda all over it but when it comes to the current Holy Father its nothing but disrespect and bashing. It appears more anti-Catholic (protestant) than Catholic.
Francis is the one that doesn't make any sense Here!!!!!!Because he is not consistent with the teachings of the Catholic Church, he contradicts previous popes, contradicts the catechism and the scriptures.
One thing is true that the Holy Spirit is not leading Francis . He is going from error to error.They rebelled against Benedict XVI don't expect anything good from this impostor!!!!!!

"Self-absorbed, Promethean neo-Pelagian!"
## My favourite. With definite shades of Captain Haddock - as quoted here:
http://www.tintinologist.org/guides/lists/curses.html
It would seem that the Pope is a reader of "Tintin"...
Wow! No love for the Pope here. I don't think he is bashing good and holy Catholics, at all. I don't think he is bashing Pope Benedict, either. I think he is trying to get some priests and bishops and the rest of us to recognize the fact that they and we aren't particularly living the Gospel message. If he has to use strong language to do it, then so be it. To understand where he is coming from, you would need to understand all that he has seen and experienced in his lifetime.
I'm living where a Bishop closed a school in a poor area (that was considered a "mission school" to the last bishop) and transformed it into a penthouse for guests, and for himself if he doesn't want to drive 15 minutes to his mansion. Something is very wrong with this picture. Pope Francis has seen men in the priesthood who are living for themselves and not Christ. He is trying to change this. It is a problem.
His comment about gays, - was it anything different than what the Church has always said? I didn't take his "Who am I to judge" comment as a green light for gays to continue their lifestyle and have sex with other men. He said if a gay man loves God and tries to live for God, who is he to judge his attractions. However, I would think at some point he would have to address this topic more thoroughly and in depth.
I just think his entire time as pope will be trying to shake up those in the Church who need shaken.
Jesus would rather forgive than condemn, but, unlike Francis, He acknowledged the sin. Whenever He forgives, he says, in addition, "Go, and sin no more." Does Francis say this? It's hard to tell if he even believes in the reality of sin as an offense against God, especially when he says atheists can be justified or saved by following their consciences, while at the same time they commit the grave sin of unbelief.
what a breath of fresh air this pope is. it is about time someone calls out these scribes and pharisees who would rob all the joy from the gospel, you go Francis
Aversa: I think Pope Francis is aware of the reality of sin. For instance read this quote from Evangelii Gaudium at para 172:
"The Gospel tells us to correct others and to help them to grow on the basis of a recognition of the objective evil of their actions (cf. Mt 18:15)"
He's best friends with a modern-day Pharisee, Rabbi Skorka.
(Modern Judaism = Talmudic Judaism, and the Talmud contains the Pharisees' wicked, man-made laws; see what St. Maximilian Kolbe has to say about the Talmud.)
If he believes that, then why doesn't he advocate correcting those who adhere to false religions? Instead, he says we should value the differences between them (Evangelii Gaudium §255)!
Do you think the previous papal criticism of saying prayers like "parrots", is no longer in effect following the blessing of the parrot?

Your book is mentioned here:
http://theweek.com/article/index/256252/pope-francis-insult-comic
Were you 'commissioned'?
Bergoglio has become a nightmare for those catholics living in italy like me. His daily chats at Casa Marta have become his way of Magisterium. And every chat has to be "doctored" before going to the press. Some of the things we are seeing here are absolutely outrageous. And I am quite sure his "best" has still yet to come.
Paolina Canossa
Yes, one must have meticulously researched references!
It isn't a Pope's solemn and sacred duty to be a "breath of fresh air", whatever such vague nonsense means but to defend the unchanging deposit of Faith, and strengthen his brother bishops in teaching, preaching and sanctifying in accordance with the unchanging Faith, the unchanging truth.
Like the dubious canonizations? See this article by the SSPX.
Insulting the Traditional Latin Mass and those who love it:
"older people nostalgic for structures and customs which are no longer life-giving in today’s world..."
"young people addicted to fashion..."
About Traditional Mass goers:
1. Old people who cling to a nostalgia for structures and customs no longer life-giving in today's world.
2. Young people addicted to fashion.
You hit that head on. Exactly what I thought. With Francis it could go either way. Good comment!
1. This world is life destroying not giving. Too many have no clue what is right and what is wrong. They are numb from all the world's modernist changes.
2. It's not a fashion it's the original church.
3. Only a modernist would think in this upside down judgemental inappropriately uneducated on the facts manner.
4. Enough said..
1. The world has become evil in its own right.
Those who do not have a solid knowledge or upbringing of what is right or wrong transform themselves into modernists. Our Lord's ways and rules are not modern. And they are not redundant.
2. The young that become Traditionals are not touched by the perversion and evilness of the world. They are innocent and pure.
3. Read the bible it could help.
This would appear to be your standard type of attempt to pick and choose the words of a person to present a skewed picture of someone. When someone speaks as often as the pope, absolutely anyone is going to be able to dig up something that they object to when it is taken in isolation or out of the context of the full body of what has been said by the person.
As Cardinal Richelieu famously said "If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him."
Even the scripture in the Bible is subjected to such misrepresentation by those who wish to distort and criticize its message. If it can be done to that, then it can be done to any man.
Fortunately, those of reasonable intent who truly desire understanding of what is being said can look at the full body of comments and see that these sorts of distortions are off-base.
There is nothing truly "life-giving" other than the timeless Holy Sacrifice of the Mass which should be conducted in the most solemn, reverent and universal way possible. The true liturgy is that which cannot be manipulated in any way by the priest offering it. The liturgy should in all its outward signs reflect the awesome, beautiful, transcendent reality that occurs therein - Our Lord, through the priest, becoming present, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.
Just think that we could have had some judgemental African Holy Father who believed that what was sin between 50 and 2500 years ago remains such today, and that hatred of such sins had not somehow evolved into a moral defect itself.
Pain and foolishness lead to great bliss and complete knowledge, for Eternal Wisdom created nothing under
the sun in vain. See the link below for more info

Brilliant. All these insults came directly from his own mouth. It is really disturbing to see a Pope who regularly trashes the faithful.
Fascinating, all these people feeling attacked... As my grandmother used to say: "if the shoe fits..."
The shoe fits Pope Francis himself...and maybe your grandmother.
But the emperor still has no clothes.
You need to remember, folks, that Bergoglio "recevied his vocation" while working as a bouncer at a Night Club...
He still talks like one...and surely should have remained such...
It is obvious that the man NEVER had a DIVINE vocation...
I do not even see evidence that he has the faith, because for him, seeking applause is ALWAYS more desireable...
A Catholic in mourning...
Anonymous: Whatever misgivings and perplexity one may suffer about what Pope Francis is reported as saying I do think one should avoid making judgements as to whether he had a vocation or not. These blogs are of vital importance and as we have seen with Nick Donnelly and his Protect the Pope website they are under wrongful attack for being extreme. We must avoid anything that can justify such attacks.
Incidentally I wonder what the Guild of Blessed Titus Brandsma should do about the attack made on one its members.
The exclamation points are entertaining but a little misleading.
Hopefully people aren't too offended by these "insults." They are clearly in keeping with Pope Francis's vision for a more open and engaged church, which I find exciting.
“They disguise themselves, they disguise themselves as good people: they make themselves up like little holy cards, looking up at heaven as they pray, making sure they are seen—they believe they are more righteous than others, they despise others."
this bloke has a lotta hate for devotion.

The picture "Pope releases pidgeon", shown on this site, is connected to an insult. This pidgeon was a gift from a man who attended the wednesday-morning-audience. The pope took the cage, opened it and let the pidgeon fly. It was like binning a birthday present before the face of the person who gave you the present.
(Please excuse my bad English. My native tongue is German. Nevertheless, I hope, I got my idea to you.)
Very good idea this list, but it would be better if you have been the original text (generally the pope Francis speaks in spanish or in italian) and then your translation, because the lenguage of the pope is very specific.

hard-headed, foolish, and slow of heart domesticator of the Holy Spirit!
I think a good new blog could be, 'what does the pope really say.' it's a rhetorical question, the answer agiven - 'not what Christ would have him say'. in his latest homily his audience is told that 'heresy is ideas gone crazy'. I thought heresy was truth being denied? he exhorts people to pray, celebrate and imitate 'christ'. but who is Frankie's 'christ'? someone found only in an undusty Gospel. he does mention sacraments, but what does the pope really say when he talks of 'sacraments'? they clearly can't parrot sacraments, as in repeating an authentic source because that source is authentic...hmmm, what does the pope really say? he really says, today I'll attract some docility with these words, tomorrow I'll attract some dicility with those words, but make no mistake, if you don't follow me into the hell-mouth in October i'll no longer mince words for you parrots, even if you are 'parroting', the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Frankie's 5 June address was a wee winner for the those with tickets to the insult lottery: 'uniformists - these are hard!' I guess Frankie, destroyer of the Franciscans would know about hard-hearted acts of destruction in an attempt to impose the spirit if Vatican ii uniformly; 'alternativists' - some sort of church ripper-uppers it would seem, I guess he would know about that too, and last and certainly least, 'exploitationists - businessmen'; again I guess he'd know, he's certainly hired enough of them.
p.s. once again Frankie called upon listeners to be 'docile' to whatever spirit is Frankie's 'higher self'. what's interesting is that Paul VI called upon people to be 'docile' to changes his 'higher self' was guiding him to make in the liturgy.

"“The Jesuit must be a person whose thought is incomplete, in the sense of open-ended thinking.”
An insult to faithful Jesuits. An open-ended thinking where the smoke of Satan easily penetrates! The saintly Fr. Herdon must be turning in his grave! The teachings of Jesus are incomplete? Tell St. Francis Xavier that, or St. Peter Canisius.
St. Ignatius, pray, pray for this Pope.
Jorge said, "I’m not interested in converting Evangelicals to Catholicism. I want people to find Jesus in their own community. There are so many doctrines we will never agree on. Let’s not spend our time on those. Rather, let’s be about showing the love of Jesus."
But what does the Jorge really say? He says this: "I'm not interested in...Catholicism. I want people to find [themselves] in their own community. Doctrines are disagreeable, let's not spend time on those. Rather let's be about showing love of the first modernist, formerly known as satan.'

Non-walking walking Christians who are not walking but are walking but not in the presence of Bergoglio's utterly rebrobate concept of 'Jesus'.
"I don’t understand a Christian who is still! A Christian who doesn’t walk, I cannot understand! A Christian must walk! There are Christians that walk, but not in the presence of Jesus."
"...the Argentine Apostate [Bergoglio], in his public and televised address to the Pentecostal Community in Caserta at the end of July, embraced his “brother pastor” and then apologized for the work of countless Catholic martyrs and saints to win back souls from Protestant sects and to stem the spread of their blasphemous heresies in Catholic lands." --- http://christorchaos.com/?q=content/accepting-apostasy-increments-part-four-0
For myself, all I can say is that the ArgentineApostate is an affront to the True Christ Jesus (the one evinced by 2000 years of Real Catholicism) and His True apostles, like St Frances de Sales, and all those who suffered for keeping the True Faith and for daring to preach the True Faith and administer True sacraments under the brutal sword of Protestantism.
‘Insulting is not Christian! Even words kill’. Finally, it's official, Bergoglio publicly declares himself non-Christian. We don't have to sweat over this fella anymore.

Murderous, cowardly, hypocritical gossips (daily homily 9/13/13)
I fear you are absolutely right. To say of Pope Francis (as someone here says) "He is going from error to error" is sowing discord among the faithful in a truly shameful way. Are the scribes and the Pharisees still amongst us? Most assuredly they are. You only have to read this blog.

After the Xmas speech to the Curia your book is going to need a large addition.
Tim
Are you going to add a "Christmas insults for your co-workers" section to the book now that Francis has publicly belittled his staff at a Christmas gathering?
Proverbs 11:12 "He who belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent."
Can somebody get Francis a Bible with that verse highlighted?
Praise God for this Pope and the great things he does!

You left out RABBITS?!!
And now some guy has made a shameless ripoff of this anthology of apothegmata, at
http://retrocatholic.com/
Do not forget how early on Pope Francis (no spring chicken himself) referred to Pope Emeritus Benedict the 16t as "grandfather" and "ultimate grandfather". This to his predecessor and one of the greatest theologians of the Catholic Church in centuries. A foreshadowing indeed.
See:http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/pope-francis-calls-benedict-xvi-the-ultimate-grandfather-34885/

Do you think we have enough to fill the Little Book, or would it be a bigger one by now?
I am a retired professional salesman. I am shocked that such a poor communicator holds, arguably, the world's most important communication position. He seems to relish attacking his own people but we can't be absolutely certain. Why can't the guy speak more clearly? If he wants to hand out communion to divorced couples, why won't he just come out and say that? Why play games with that Synod, stacking the deck with liberals and the like?
I'm just a regular guy in the pew, not anxious to complain about the pope. I've never complained about any pope in my life and I'll be 65 in a few days. But it seems like we need to say either JPII and Benedict were horrible and Francis is wonderful or Francis is horrible and the JPII and Benedict were wonderful. All three can't wonderful and all three can't be horrible.
He talks too much and he criticizes too much. He did not realize who he is now. I miss Ratzinger so much it hurts. Please God, have pity on him and change his ways. Please!

This list is indeed outdated! An update is required, sir, since pope was very active recently (insult-wise).

I wasn't born until 1968 but I always thought to myself that the Rosary missed out significant events in the life of Christ to meditate on. I thank St JPII for the opportunity to meditate on the institution of the Eucharist, the Transfiguration, the Baptism of the Lord, the work (which the Church ever continues, or at least did until the election of Pope Bergoglio) of the Proclamation of the Kingdom of Heaven and most importantly at this time when Marriage and the Family is under great attack from within and without the Church the Wedding at Cana. I suppose I find great comfort and inspiration in all 200.
This Borgolio when he talks causes me so much disgust that I feel like vomiting. Since he was made Pope he did not open his mouth one time in favor of the Church of Christ.
By the teachings of the Holy Roman Catholic Church, the heretic Pope automatically excommunicated himself. So, if it was ever a Pope, it is not today.
Sadly, all three were/ are horrible; none guarded the Sacred Deposit of Faith. All three contributed to the damage done to the Church, Francis being the worst and JP2 second. All three Modermists.

"By the teachings of the Holy Roman Catholic Church, the heretic Pope automatically excommunicated himself. So, if it was ever a Pope, it is not today."
What do you mean, mr. anonymous, with the expression "Holy Roman Catholic Church"?
Do you mean something different from the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC and ROMAN APOSTOLIC Church, founded BY and ON Our Lord Jesus Christ, Born by Perfect Virgin Mary?
If you do, you have already admitted with your own words of NOT belonging to the ONLY ONE Church of Jesus Christ.
If you don't, I ask you a second question:
why do you want to sell as teaching of the One, Holy, Catholic and Roman Apostolic Church what has NEVER been taught by Her?
That is the Pope can become heretic, so automatically excommunicating himself and so ceasing to be Pope?
The Church of Jesus Christ, in truth, has NEVER taught that Peter can fall in heresy, so ceasing latae sententiae to be Pope.
Indeed, if She had ever taught such a NEGATION of Word of Her Founder: She would not be the Faithful Bride She is assured to be by Her Divine Bridegroom.
And I remember you the Word of Our Lord Jesus Christ about Peter's faith:
"Simon, Simon, behold Satan has demanded to sift all of you like wheat,
but I have prayed that your own faith may not fail; and once you have turned back, you must strengthen your brothers." (Luke 22,31-32)

What a great collection of the damning ramblings of an insane, hateful old Marxist Prot. He projected himself quite well.
Wow!! Think maybe he doesn't like us very much??!! I don't think you can even measure that amount of pure HATE. Kind of like an 'infinite' kind of HATE.
" Kind of like an 'infinite' kind of HATE."
I am reminded of Jadis' reaction to Aslan in The Magician's Nephew. Or to Aslan's music.
I am going to have to sue you for splitting my gut. :) I cannot stop laughing at this.......which in itself is a sign of how sick it all is.
Thank you!!
