"Mockery outweighs piety after Pope's Twitter debut "
"The 85-year-old pontiff was not following any other Twitter user, besides the seven other language versions of his account. Papal tweets will also come in Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German, Polish, Arabic and French - but not in Latin, the official language of the Catholic Church.
The Pope sends his first tweet
"HOLY HASHTAG: Pope hits Twitter
His second tweet - "How can we celebrate the Year of Faith better in our daily lives?" - prompted a string of tongue-in-cheek answers.
"With some nice cold chocolate milk. And the Lord?" wrote one user tweeting in Portuguese with the handle @tensoblog.
Another distinctly sin-minded user, @binnie, joked: "Hookers and blow."
Along with the absurd, there were also serious answers like that from @francagiansol, who tweeted: "With humility and charity and by setting an example."
A formal-sounding @RoyalBlueStuey wrote: "The Rosary and the Mass".
"By preaching more acceptance Your Holiness. The Church has lost its footing in adapting to the times," wrote @klubbkiddkl, an avowedly lapsed Catholic.
Fast-paced tweeters replied so quickly that many did not realise the Pope's question was rhetorical.
A few minutes later the Pope tweeted: "By speaking with Jesus in prayer, listening to what he tells you in the Gospel and looking for him in those in need."
The Vatican has emphasised that it welcomes all kinds of reactions to the Pope's tweets as it regards social networks as a democratic forum.
