A priest kissing a girl. Finally!!
Whether or not Alberto CutiƩ decides to kick his sweetheart to the curb the Holy See will assuredly defrock his ass. He's a very popular dude in his parish and beyond so when he reenlists with another team he will take a lot of the Vatican's customers followers with him. Pat Buchanan once wrote a nice piece all about Catholicism's skid but he doesn't think the church has become too anachronistic to connect with 21st millenials. He says the church is no longer ass-kicking enough to get the job done. Of course, that doesn't explain the rise of evangelism. Joel Osteen's followers fill a convertedpro basketball arena to find out how they'll become wealthy by listening to him every week while Catholics struggle to fill the ornate purpose-built churches they already have. If you can believe in a virgin birth and want to hang out with a bunch of like-minded people would you rather rock out in a cushy megachurch where they promise you wealth for simply reading along in the bible or attend full mass (Latin available in selected markets!) on an oaken pew listening to a guy down on pre-marital sex and masturbation? Alberto CutiƩ opted for old-fashioned stuff the first time around. Next time around he could have a wife, a huge following and tons of money doing the same job wearing a tie instead of a collar.
