Pope Francis was born December 17, 1936. He is 76 years old.
Jorge Rafael Videla was born August 2, 1925. He is 87 years old.
Whoever was giving Communion in the fake photo seems to be at least as old as Videla.

To his credit, Moore has acknowledged his error:
CORRECTION: New Pope too young, photo circulating not of him giving communion to Argentine dictator Jorge Rafael Videla

That photo being passed around 2 us, incl on my Twitter feed, of the new pope w/ the old dictator is a fake. I took it down & u should too.
