Idolatry

Which ring?😕😕😕🤢🤢🤢

To be fair if a complete stranger attempted to kiss my ring I’d be a little uncomfortable.

He won’t wear the red shoes, now no ring kissing. If he doesn’t want to be the Pope and act like the Pope nay be he should step aside.

Diva Pope

Seems fair, I'd expect at least dinner and a movie before anyone can kiss my ring. ;-)

What is the thing with kissing the ring though? Is that not what is suppose to happen when the pope extends a hand? I'm confused

Pathetic false humility. Describes his entire papacy!

Mmmrrrr

Fnaar fnaar

Are we not all admonished to be vicars...? ( 2 Cor 5:20)

This is hilarious 😂

Be better if his Priests adopted the same principle!!

The pope is so smart to avoid❣️

cringe

The only way to heal the People & the Church around the World is to rebuild from the ground-up. Interject Women into main service. It is Time.

Very disturbing.

Maybe he’s lost the official “Pope ring” and he doesn’t want anyone to notice.

Sometimes he likes being the head of one of the worst institutions known to mankind, sometimes he doesn’t.

Francis is a phoney pulling a stunt like that.

maybe if it was an altar boy.....

You need to be careful when kissing Priests rings.!

he only likes it when it's the young birds

Probably sore by now.

Ummm

Be careful where you choose to tie your laces your excellency

Hope he bathed

it's been a long time since the British attacked the POPE! 🙄🤔

Insert joke here [ ] 😂

viezeriken

My favourite person to have a papal audience is 'Anne' from Little Britain.

super awkward
