Who here plans to heed Pope Francis' words and abstain from pointless internet antagonism during this holy season of Lent?

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - During Lent, Catholics are called on to give up something, like sweets. On Wednesday, Pope Francis added a modern twist to the list of things to quit during the season and beyond: insulting people on social media.
The pope made his appeal to tone things down while speaking to tens of thousands of people in St. Peter’s Square for his general audience on Ash Wednesday, the start of the 40-day season that leads up to Easter.
"We live in an atmosphere polluted by too much verbal violence, too many offensive and harmful words, which are amplified by the internet,” he said. “Today, people insult each other as if they were saying ‘Good Day.’”

Tell him to give up communism first then we'll talk about trolling.

The Pope is just following Jesus's teachings.

Nah, We'd rather just quit eating meat on an arbitrary one day of the week, as we go find the finer seafood restaurants on a Friday night.

I get where you're coming from but Jesus' teachings and the tenants of the Church are pretty communistic in nature. He isn't really preaching anything new.

Tenets, and no they aren't. Communism and religion can't coexist. Marx said so himself. You can argue that the Church's teachings are egalitarian, but not communist.

They are more socialist but most people don't know the difference between socialism and communism.
