Pope 2.0?


So the pope has finally gone digital. Finally I can see what he's up to whenever I want to enlighten myself. I think that this whole idea is just to try and get young people to follow religion and once again have faith in the catholic churches of today. I applaud his efforts, just like the pastor guy who dressed up like movie characters, I think that this is the first step in a much needed church overhaul. Let's face it: 95% of the people who regularly attend church have grey hair, and once they're gone, they're gone. The churches of today need to drastically change in order to accommodate and attract young people, or they will die out. In these times, not many people want to spend their Sunday morning getting up early and getting dressed really nice to listen to someone talk for a couple hours. that's what school's for. people want to be entertained and have their religion apply to today's standards. The church claims that it can't change to keep up with the times because then that would involve changing their entire mentality of what they believe in. But if they don't start thinking of change now, it may be too late. So good job pope Benedict, it's a step in the right direction.
