(ANSA) - Vatican City, November 14 - Pope Francis warned that
"gossip kills" during his weekly general audience on Wednesday
in St Peter's Square.
"The gossiping man and the gossiping woman are people who
kill others because the tongue kills, like a knife," the pope
said during a lesson on the eighth commandment - you shall not
bear false witness against your neighbour.
"Be careful. The gossiping man and the gossiping woman are
terrorists because they throw a bomb and then go away.
"They destroy other people's reputations".
