the person that posted this article is mad. for life madness was dat a slap, iz dat hw dey slap people it was a tap, like a let go tapping. the pope tapped the aggressive lady to let go. these dumb nigerian bloggers be posting piece of bull shit. kindly watch the video and don't be decieved by these misleading article...

Stop it! Stop trying to cover up just because hes the pope. There is enough hypocrisy in the church already.

This incident has been reported worldwide using the word SLAP because he clearly SLAPPED the womans hand. A tap is totally different from a slap.

He has already apologised and we have forgiven him. Call a spade a spade and stop trying to obfuscate issues just because you like the guy

If it was Donald Trump that did this the pope would have called for his resignation ... I think this is the worst pope in recent history , very partisan and dark

This is FALSE

This Pope has related to non-Christians in a way non-Catholics wonder if Catholics are truly Christians

A Pope that keeps twisting the bible and urging followers not to follow many of the things written in the bible, because according to him, the bible needs to be revised(including the Lord's prayer)....is that one a Pope or an agent of Satan in disguise dressed as an angel of light?

The way the woman dragged the Pope back was very wrong.

It was very funny and rude. grin grin She pulled him back like a child, refusing to let him go. I think the Pope was soft on her. I would have punched her face. grin grin grin

This Pope has really tried since he resumed office.. they can undergo pressure too. They are human but still they have to know the position they occupy.

You succeeded in saying nonsense.

You did not read the post but rushed to comment.
I blame the editorial for portraying the news this way. You should have at least tried to read it too.

The woman grabbed his hand and pulled him closer, he had to tap/slap/beat the woman’s hand to be let go so he can continue his greetings with others. There’s no reason he should be apologizing in the first place.

See the "slap" for which he apologized

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WySwhj2SwE

Now compare it to oyedepo's slap for which he never apologised.

Lol! The woman dragging him can she drag her father in such a manner?

People try to walk all over you because youre trying to be gentle for Christ.

Why are you touching somebody you dont know Did the Bible tell you to do that smh

I dont agree with all the Catholic stuff but this should be one thing that I can take away from that church. At least being a Christian doesnt mean people should do you anyhow

I am not Catholic but the woman was disrespectful of the Pope. If someone pulled me back in such a terrible manner, I would throw a punch. angry angry Had the Pope not been standing well, he could well have stumbled to the ground considering his age.

No error, the woman might be someone’s wife.
Does being someone wife's give licence to drag others in the public? Or being a Pope, does he not deserve a respect

In fact, she could have dislocated the old mans wrist with the way she was rough-handling him so the slap was more like self-defence.

If he were an old man living in a care home, his family could sue the healthcare facility for abuse. What a crazy human lol I thought the Pope is even supposed to be treated with more trepidation since you respect him so much!

Nigerian youths are the worst hit when it comes to the European mental brainwashing of Africans through SLAVERY AND COLONIALISM. Comments here expose the fact that they don't even know anything about the Popes of Rome, the Vatican, the Catholic Church, Islam and their real purpose and objectives in global politics. Dumb miseducated youths.

When you get to the gate of Rome in italy, there is a Roman written inscription by the word 'Vicarius Filii Dei', Which means 666.


Those who worship in the catholic way are being mislead to the bottomless pit of hell.

The pope is an Anti-christ.

All the people that thronged Jesus during His earthly ministry, the bible didn't tell us He slapped any of them. One even touched His garment and power came out of him but He didn't slap her

Have you seen the video clip? Go and watch before endorsing a dumb crude behaviour. The Pope is aged. The woman did it cynically. I would slap her on the face if I were the one. angry angry
