Stalin once asked sneeringly (that was his style) “how many divisions” the Pope had. The answer, of course, was “none.” But, then, Uncle Joe never had 10 million Twitter followers. That’s almost as many people as the Big Evil killed.
As Jeff Schapiro of Christian Post reports, the Pope is appropriately humble, Tweeting to the multitudes:
“Dear Followers I understand there are now over 10 million of you! I thank you with all my heart and ask you to continue praying for me.”
Pope Francis is a force in this world and the gratitude one feels for that cannot be expressed in words. Or even 140 characters.
