VATICAN CITY - Pope Francis has often warned against gossiping among friends and neighbors, but now he says it should also be avoided in those modern temples of cheap talk: beauty parlors and hair salons.
The pope exhorted some 230 Italian Catholic hair cutters, stylists and beauticians - on a group pilgrimage to Rome - to"avoid falling into the temptation of gossip that is easily associated with your work". Instead, they should pursue their profession"with Christian style, treating clients with gentleness and courtesy, offering them always a good word and encouragement," he said.
Francis noted their patron saint is Saint Martin de Porres: a 16th century barber-surgeon who joined the Dominican order in Peru and spent much of his life helping the poor and sick. Italian barbers and beauty parlors are traditionally closed on Mondays, which is why the group chose their day off to visit the Vatican.
Oh where did you hear this 🙄
that ain't it chief
Getting rest by toni and I house in her name only
Stay in your lane bro
Gossip bad,but fukking alter boys good.
Should they listen to NPR instead? 🤣
The church loves secrets
In that case we'd not have TMZ.
Ahahaha he knows everything
Pope is also sending money to the hordes of illegals trying to infiltrate our country. Thanks pope, you are truly evil. Destroy Christianity by merging all religions? I have heard of this before, in the Bible.
He was just teasing them
Ha! He should be telling his priests not to sexually assault young boys
What about raping kids did he say anything about that......
?
Most likely he meant stop gossiping about pedophile priests, the church is falling apart because of your gossips...priests are good...
Is this a joke?
I don’t even know the over/under on pedophiles vs hairstylists. Ima take the overs.
Then were am I going to get the neighborhood news the Pope probably not going to the right stylists.
Calling out hairdressers? What an asiinine thing to do.
Pay attention Trump you could use some prayers bro
'לשון הרע לא מדבר אליי'
Is gossip code for crimes against humanity?
People in church gossip.
But he told them at the water cooler
Really Frank? This is the most important thing to talk about? How about the church continues to hide sexual abuse of kids.
Are the stylist democrats?
Haha 😂 nae chance all they do is gossip
Good luck with that!
That's hairlarious! 😃
What?!!!
Wow
Todavía me cuesta creer que un jesuíta, una persona que sobresale por encima de las pequeñeces del resto de sus colegas, sea tan pendejo; o peor, que nos haga creer que sus *peroratas* tienen una función ejemplarizante.
asesinar a Carlos Rouro
That’s his main concern?
Fix the raping kids problem you have and we’ll continue to 💩 talk with our stylist!
Ok “Admitted to Guilt Gang”. Get your hair did, nails did, Telling all what you did and didn’t do...DOES NOT MEAN OLD MEN drool over kids? Especially male kids
MR POPE IF I WERE YOU I WOULD VISIT THE U.N CONDEMN CHINA FOR THE KILLING OF OVER 2 MILLION INFANTS WORLDWIDE EVERY YEAR. THESE ARE GOD'S CHILDREN AND YOUR DUTY TO PROTECT THEM. IF YOU DON'T GOD WILL HOLD YOU ACCOUNTABLE. PRAYING FOR YOU TO DO THIS. I WILL GLADLY GO WITH YOU SIR
Way to take all the fun out of barber shop
Ya cuz that’s the biggest problem for the Catholic Church. Cmon!
And pay no attention to damn Bannon sleeping around the corner.
He knows those hairdressers have an acute sense of gaydar!
Don't gossip, but okay for priests to molest children?
“....or be damned to eternal hellfire and (horrors, no!) FROSTED TIPS!!”
I have a couple other ideas he could espouse to make the world a better place...
Haha
Really? Clergy abuse and this is what you preach?
He's dodging endgame spoilers
You telling me I can’t go to the barbershop & talk shit about people?
🤣🤣He has a better chance at Trump asking him for forgiveness.
Oh, oh, Holy 1. Let's refrain from gossiping, not until you have the facts. Then go to a confessional and tell the person behind the screen. I think they call him the Wizard or something.
But rapist priests are perfectly fine. 🙄 The Catholic Church is a haven of greed, crime, misogyny and rapists. Pontifex
Annndd.! Please wear Tbacks..😇🙏
Thou shalt not pedo kids
Does he realize that part of their trade requires interpersonal communication
Where is this guys moral compass?The abuse in the Catholic church, but don't gossip with the gal cutting your hair?
Thou shalt not enable and shield pedophilia, while damning legal lifestyles.
I think the gossip of the satanic catholic pedophile cult is already out... 🤣🤣
Worry about molesting alter boys
I don't have a problem with hair stylists. There's an advantage to not having hair. ;) They really shouldn't gossip though.
c_sesin That’s like telling Trump to try to be positive.
Meanwhile the Catholic Church protects pedophile Priests. Pope no longer has any morale authority.
Idiot
Si jesús viviera, le solicitaría al papa ridículo, que estilista le recomendaría para su cabello.😏
That’s classic. Doesn’t he know that’s 99% of the fun of getting your hair done!!!! (Oh...maybe not.) —Sorry. My bad!
Thou shall not covet little boys but sure tell the hair stylists to stop gossiping. 🤦
RIDÍCULO
How am I to get the latest news then? Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Monsters are such innnnterstin’ creatures
Sounds like the pope believes the gossip that hairdressers and stylists gossip. Judge not, Pope.
Whois that criminalthat has hidden pedophile preachers molesting children. This entire thing is a farce protecting that dishonest criminal. And that is a Church Not in my view
He is a blithering nut case
Oh yes please don’t gossip. That’s bad. Meanwhile priests, cardinals and bishops routinely molest children. priorities CatholicChurchisfuckedup
Who died and made him GOD? Like, really!?🤔
Ha! Ha! Ha! Now can he address the Catholic Churches' involvement in the enslavement of African Peoples. ourtuitionhasbeenpaid
Sort of like going to a Whitehouse state dinner and the menu is either Big Macs or Pizza?
We all know who has the gossip, they get caught all the time.
Bravo 👏
Lmao!! ❤
What the heck !
In America.....the media would be losing their minds over something like that.
In the book of Titus, God told the older women not to be addicted to too much wine, and not to gossip, but teach the younger women to care for their husbands and homes. TITUS 2:3-5. Amen
Wow. I think the popes priorities are a bit off. Wouldn’t you say. He’s got to much time on his hands.
My stylist is cheaper than a therapist & more trustworthy than a Priest so I’ll take my chances.
Good luck with that one. When was the last time Pope Frankie visited a stylists chair?
there are probably worse things they should avoid, was it a democrat audience$
Isn’t that the same as telling one of their own... You know, nevermind. You already know what I was about to write, don’t you?
Tell your priests to stop raping children. Thanks.🤨
...and avoid the temptation to stereotype.
Seriously? The Pope is telling them to avoid gossip? He should concentrate on much worse sins in his own church
Twitter is gossip.
Hahaha he knows his hairdressers🤣
With all that’s wrong in the church, this is what he’s focused on?!
'Loose lips...' Nevermind.
AnoNQcue If true (or not) - Fake Pope is 👇 If Fake News (or not)- NBC News are👇
Thousands upon thousands of sexually abused children by the clergy...no big deal. Gossip at the hairstylist...THE HORROR! priorities
Ha...I love holy declarations on 1960’s TV tropes!
Yeah, gossip is what's wrong with the world.
That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.
Really dude? There aren’t more pressing issues to address in the Catholic Church?
The Weather will suffice.
Why do these queens have 230 beauticians? I thought they were supposed to be humble and meek. Pathetic.
Good to see that Pontifex is in agreement with my mantra. That our focus as hairstylists should be to only share information that’s positive, empowering, and uplifting. I’m discussing this issue in tomorrow’s podcast of TheSheCompassShow
Stylist-patient confidentiality is fairly important. God knows that they've been told a whole lot more than most doctors. 🤷♂️
Everyone knows you don't go to a salon just for the haircut.
But if you succumb to temptation of becoming sexual predator or pedophile ... The Pope has your back
Rome is burning and this is what he cares about.
Because they have all the dirt on EVERYONE.
And then what did they say? Were they mad? Dish!
WTH?
But gossiping is like half the fun of the job
i love are pope
