Catholics Outraged as Visitors Take Selfies with Body of Pope Francis
Catholic faithful around the world expressed indignation this week after videos and pictures of individuals taking selfies next to Pope Francis’s open casket began circulating on social media.
Since Wednesday, over 128,000 people have visited Saint Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican, enduring roughly eight-hour-long queues to enter the Church and pay their respects to Pope Francis’s body. The late pontiff will lie in state for a three-day ritual prior to his burial on Saturday.
Videos circulating of individuals recording selfie videos and taking pictures next to the late Pope’s casket during the few seconds that they are allowed to be in front of the coffin began circulating on social media, eliciting outrage and condemnation from Catholics, who denounced the practice as distasteful and disrespectful behavior in such a solemn moment.
The moment you live with so many people loses a lot of intimacy. The lines, the speed, blur that experience,” A Spanish man identified by the Spanish news agency EFE said. “Many come more to have their pictures taken than to pray for the pope.”
Martin and Catherine Gilsenan, a 59-year-old British husband and wife, spoke with the Daily Mirror on Thursday and said that they found the mobile phones very distasteful, explaining that people were being asked to put their selfie sticks away when they got to the front.
“There were also many people looking around and getting upset with those on the phones. We have phones but we kept them in our pockets and afterwards found a spot inside the church for 15 minutes of quiet contemplation,” Martin Gilsenan said.
“What did surprise me is the fact that earlier we were told no photos in the Sistine Chapel and here people were getting their phone out and doing selfies with the coffin,” Janine Venables, a British woman from south Wales, told the Daily Mail. “I did think that was a bit in poor taste and I’m surprised no one stopped them.”
The Daily Mail reported on Friday that an unnamed Brazilian priest is among the individuals who published selfies next to Pope Francis’ body on social media. A Vatican source told the Mail that it would be good if people could try to remember where they are and have respect, but “there’s little else that can be done.”

Jody Vance said to the Pope, "President Trump wants to meet with you again Holy Father'.
Papa Francini replied, "I can't wait".
Brazil's President Lula looks like Zelenskyy's older brother.

I didn't like him. He was a woke pope. Hopefully the next pope is hardcore catholic. I notice carney wasn't there which shows tremendous disrespect.
Zelenskyy looked like he was dressed to go for dinner at Swiss Chalet. You'd think all the money he's skimmed from the war he could afford to buy a decent suit.

There are only two political leaders I care about, Mark Carney did not attend Papa Francini's Funeral. The Governor General went instead - that's not a good look.
Can’t expect much more from the influence that comes from the stupid/narcsisstic generation.
You mean, he didn’t go there to show respect and mourn the passing of a great Christian leader, a servant of God whose very breath was devoted to the pursuit of peace, mercy, and divine truth?
If you watched the video you know they were referring to the blue suit when every other leader was in black and stepping on the carpet approaching the casket. The red hat is just for click bait purposes just like every YouTube video does.
He should have worn his red nose since he already was sporting the yellow hair.
Which is in the political section and Trump The Clown attended his funeral, therefore it's fair game.
You wonder if what's good for the goose is good for the gander. I saw nobody complaining about Prince William wearing blue and he's a royal.
