Pope Francis Accidentally Used The 'F' Word During Sermon!

Pope Francis was speaking from a window in St. Peter's Square when he misspoke and used an Italian curse word.
On the completely innocent subject of sharing one's wealth with others as Catholicism teaches, Pope Francis had this to say, "If each one of us does not amass riches only for oneself, but half for the service of others, in this [expletive]."

The Argentinean Pope was delivering his blessing in Italian — a language he is not used to speaking — when he said cazzo instead of caso, which means "example" or "case." Cazzo is the equivalent of "f*ck" in Italian, but can also be interpreted as "c*ck" or "d*ck." The Pontiff recognized his mistake and immediately corrected himself.But the moment would be remembered forever.

"In this case the providence of God will become visible through this gesture of solidarity," he continued and recovered from the gaffe.The Pope seems to be forgiven for the sin, with many people commenting on the viral video with, "I love you, Pope Francis!"

The Vatican has not commented on the flub.
