Watch Pope Francis Chat With Special Needs Kids Online

1 minute read

Pope Francis took to the Internet Thursday morning to speak with special needs kids in a Google hangout.

Despite the tech-savvy nature of the event, the Pope proclaimed on the chat, “I am old-fashioned when it comes to computers. I’m a dinosaur. I don’t know how to work a computer.”

When a 14-year-old from Argentina talked about using a tablet, the Pope admitted asked, “Is it difficult…I don’t have one.”

That’s not to say the Pope is a Luddite, though. The 78-year-old pontiff once referred to the Internet as a “gift from God.”
