"Selfies" may be all the rage among tech-savvy youth these days, but a Filipino Catholic bishop warned that too much of this may be a sign of selfishness.

Ironically, the statement comes just weeks after no less than Pope Francis himself posed for a selfie with youths in the Vatican.

Former Manila auxiliary bishop Teodoro Bacani Jr. said the selfie—a photo a user takes using a smartphone's front-facing camera—shows unnatural self-centeredness.
“We are selfish, this is what we need to do away with. [It's all about] I, me, myself [like] those who keep on taking selfie photos,” he said in a homily, excerpts of which were posted on the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines Tuesday.

He said the selfie phenomenon reveals a culture that needs God more than ever before.

“What God wants to say is, ‘Leave your selfishness.’ This is what you need to leave and live in God instead because in God is true peace,” he said.

Bacani called for a return to God or repentance, which he said is part of the message Our Lady gave to three children in Fatima, Portugal in 1917.

He said penance means returning to God and does not necessarily mean extreme physical mortifications or self-inflicted pain.

Bacani pointed out prayer and penance form a formula for lasting peace. — TJD, GMA News

The pope's selfie trended globally, so I'm sure the bishop must have seen it. I think he consciously made a swipe at the popular pope. These old power hogs like to spar at each other.

Selfishness is placing concern with oneself or one's own interests above the well-being or interests of others.

selfie is simply trying to be attractive. nothing more.

seems like the Bishop needs a short lesson on Morality 101

Selfie simply means not bothering another person to have a picture taken. It also means not minding if the resulting photo has a distorted perspective due to too short focal distance. That implies unselfishness and humility.

“A bit like in television today, he delivered a message through a story or a symbol,”

Aka Jesus was the proto-netizen who predates /b/ tards with their picture memes and and hashtagger twitter users using short tweets.

So if Jesus returns in this time, he will be posting picture memes and making tweets under the name "cooldude475" or an ordinary generic name.
