Oops. A mistake like that would be enough to piss off a Pope.

Reminds me of the so called first Pope when they asked him if he knew Jesus Christ....
“Then he began to call down curses, and he swore to them, “I don’t know the man!” Immediately a rooster crowed.” ( MATTHEW 26:74 ).
But the question is why was the Pope speaking in English?

“His Holiness meant to use the Italian word for example, which is caso.
Instead, he used the word cazzo, which Italians use as a synonym for the four-letter obscenity.”

Please, please. Relax.
This is not what El Pope said. This is an error by the Vatican Job Placement Translation team. They are still learning. They have no credentials. Just weeks ago, they were homeless and living on the streets of Rome.
I also want to point out that the “mainstream media is against our Pope!!!!!!!” They are distorting everything.
To: Gamecock
Since he does not speak English, I’m not sure how he could be swearing in English.

For all, he wasn't speaking in English. He was speaking in Italian. The words look to be pronounced almost the same. No grownup Catholic pretends that the Pope is impeccable.

Through no fault of the poster, the article is overwhelmingly misleading. The story reads as if the Pooe actually uttered the EFF word but is really hardly the case.
The story is a sensation only if you speak Italian and realize the similarity in the pronunciation of the words intended to be spoken.
FTA:
His Holiness meant to use the Italian word for example, which is caso.
Instead, he used the word cazzo, which Italians use as a synonym for the four-letter obscenity.

That’s not an F-Bomb, that’s a verbal time bomb that could go off on any non-native speaker of Italian.

Did he say the F-bomb in English, Italian, Latin?

To: Gamecock
Please! The scary headlines and even some of the leads make it sound like he swore in an unguarded moment of irritation over some mishap. It was an innocent and thoroughly unintentional slip of the tongue.

Look at the context of his words - God stopped him from pushing a 50% income tax.
