Super Priest = Super Duper Pope!

The Mexican Super Priest

Every Sunday at the Ojo de Agua parish in Saltillo, Mexico, Father Humberto Alvarez dons a special chasuble, a special superhero robe decorated with images of Batman, Superman, and Spider-Man, and hoses down the mass with a holy water-firing squirt gun. I guess I don’t understand church very well because if someone had just told me when I was a kid that I could wear my Spidey undies and bring a toy gun, then I’d probably be Pope by now.

Robert Rodriguez is making a movie about that guy and Danny Trejo is playing him. Should be a gory one.

WOW...I knew you had to be involved somehow. How you guys never did a cross promotion is beyond me. It seems a natural fit.

Why isn't this man Pope yet?

Kal said...

Because the MAN keeps everyone down. Even a holy man with a super soaker full of holy water. He isn't blessing anyone. He's just trying to find out if there are any vampires in his congregation. You know, those daylight vampires who can go into churches.

There was a great sketch on 22 Minutes last night about combining Catholicism and Canadianism. The Eucharist was celebrated using an extra-large double-double and a box of Timbits.

Now that is funny. How many Timbits did they give you. I bet it was that crappy little box with like six in there. Baby, I START at 12 when I go Tim Hortons slumming.
