- What would Francis call people who use “fake religion” to mask Marxism?
- Are “Climate Change” true believers “coprophiliacs”?
- Regrettably, he has a taste for it, and propensity to regurgitate it
From The Daily Mail: (excerpt)
• The Pope slammed producers and consumers of fake news in an interview
• He said news outlets that spread disinformation risk falling prey to ‘coprophilia’
• Consumers of fake news risk ‘coprophagia’ which is eating excrement
Media that focus on scandals and spread fake news to smear politicians risk becoming like people who have a morbid fascination with excrement, Pope Francis said in an interview pubRegrettablylished Wednesday.
Francis told the Belgian Catholic weekly ‘Tertio’ that spreading disinformation was ‘probably the greatest damage that the media can do’ and using communications for this rather than to educate the public amounted to a sin.
Using precise psychological terms, he said scandal-mongering media risked falling prey to coprophilia, or arousal from excrement, and consumers of these media risked coprophagia, or eating excrement.
The Argentine-born pontiff excused himself for using such terms in order to get his point across while answering a question about the correct use of the media.
Frankly we are impressed with such erudition about shit and peoples taste for it.
Reminds us of the old adage with supposedly smart people. BS is just what you think it is, MS is “more of the same”, and PhD is “piled high and deep”
More adages for the Pope to internalize: Dress a turd in pseudo-science and it is still a turd
OK, we are getting carried away. But one last provocation: Which captioned photograph is better:
