2020 started off in an interesting way, Pope Francis apologizing for slapping a woman's hand who was yanking his arm. I mean, I can easily understand why he would do that but I'm also not the Pope so things are different for us both.
Pope Francis apologized for his "bad example:"
In his traditional Wednesday remarks, the pontiff offered an apology as he ruminated on patience and how it conquers “iniquity and power.”
“Many times we lose our patience,” he said. “I do, too, and I’m sorry for yesterday’s bad example.”
This is not the first time the world has focused on papal handshakes gone awry. In March, Francis repeatedly withdrew his hand from worshipers as they sought to kiss his ring.
