The Catholic Church is Club Med compared to Islam.
Islam: killing and raping and oppressing for a thousand years.

Actually, it''s a tragic, evil organization. Ask any altar boy.

The Cathoholic Church is a joke.

The saddest part of this story is that the ad agency actually pulled the commercial.

Honey, if I go to Hell for not worshipping the pope then I''m going to have a lot of company and I''ll be just fine with that. You pathetic dogmatic cow.

If I give the Archdiocese a 20 dollar bill, will they finally go out and buy themselves a sense of humor?

I would say most of the ad is more strange than silly, and more irreverent than offensive. However, parodying the sung prayers of the Catholic liturgy (in the beginning of the ad) does fall into the offensive category. A comparably offensive parody (or any parody for that matter) of Jewish or Muslim prayer would _never_ be allowed to see the light of day in any TV ad. And for that glaring bit of insensitivity, it wouuld seem that the only true bobblehead in this story is DC metro''s "media relations director" Lisa Farbstein.

Good grief, The bobblehead Pope is a great idea. He is a real life bobblehead. But I want a bobblehead Jesus. Where do you get these?
