I can handle the “self-righteousness” part the “extremism” part has the obvious political connotations.
It makes it look like the Pope is taking sides with the Left side.
I’m being more generous than others but that’s what I’ll say.

Anybody who actually takes the teachings of Christ to heart needs to run as fast and far as they can from this rectal aperture.

I just do not understand what this Pope is trying to do to the Church...or why.
Perhaps, if I’ve lived as good a life as I like to believe I have, I’ll find out soon enough.

“We need religion in order to respond to the thirst for world peace and the thirst for the infinite that dwells in the heart of each man and woman,” he said.No, we need Christ (the Word) in us via the indwelling of the Holy Spirit ... in order to respond to the thirst for world peace and the thirst for the infinite that dwells in the heart of each man and woman.
NOTHING ELSE -- NO RELIGION, NO PERSON, NO THING --- WILL MEET OUR NEED, SAVE CHRIST! AMAZINGLY, POPE FRANCIS DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THIS !!

“Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD God of Sabaoth!”
How extreme of the Almighty. Guess homos should get a pass.

Works-based religions are all about self-righteousness.

I was going to make a snarky comment.
But then I thought of all the lovely people I know who are faithful Catholics and who have to put up with this person, who is suppose to be building them up, putting them down.
And I decided that saying a prayer for them might be better.

Fair! I would only note that I haven’t met a denomination exclusively led by perfect human beings.
Nor was that ever the case, right? 12 disciples, of which 1 betrayed Him and 10 others then fled like kittens, including the one he called the rock denying Him three times in one evening...
... and He knew all that beforehand and still chose those 12 — and see what happened after! So, I figure He knows what He’s doing despite the strange persons with jobs like pastor and priest, bishop, Pope, etc.

"Religions Must Be Purified of Extremism, Self-Righteousness" What, and leave the Buddhists to run the world?
To: No.6
Perfection is not within the grasp of humanity.
But most Church leaders do their best to uplift the faithful not tear them down.
This man does not. And worse he seems to be doing it out of malice rather then simple error.
I find that terribly sad.
Especially for Catholics who are facing outright persecution for their faith.
