The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...

Lmfao anyone see the movie Dogma, this is modern day Buddy Christ! 😂

BuddyChrist

Buddy Jesus would have been an a better choice. The internet fanfiction might have worked for them. I predict they won't be pleased by the fanfiction they're about to get from under age manga.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 hour ago

not...publicly pleased, at any rate...

but amongst themselves? probably swapping their favorites around.

Better than Bloody Christ, for sure.

The Buddy and Bloody of Christ, though… Now, you’ve got a sacrament going.

Because an official anime boy mascot would be too apropos?

Missed the chance to call her Vati-chan.

Are they running so low on young people to molest they've resulted to youthful dolls?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 31 minutes ago (1 children)

These are useful for luring new victims back to the rectory.

"Hey little girl, would you like to come to my office to read from the old testicles?"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 23 minutes ago

So is it blessed anime, or holy anime?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 minutes ago

All I hear is, the Vatican is after the young crowd. Imagine that....

How is this NOT the onion...

Child Rape, Incorporated really shouldn't, they really really shouldn't, they really really really just should not

Her name is Light? Like the guy from Death Note?

What’s Luce for?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 29 minutes ago

Yuru-kyara but for the pope?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 hour ago

Don't let this distract you from the fact that the Pope still doesn't have a moe moe

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

No way they're going to regret that decision....

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 hours ago

that's adorable. I like the frog looking one, as my name implies.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

I hope this goes the same way as the Tony T Tiger VTuber career

Target demographic: lolicons

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 hour ago

I would say the target demographic is Catholics. That's an important distinction, because it includes shotacons too.

Thank god they didn't go furry with any of their characters.

2034: The Vatican unveils official furry mascot

[–] [email protected] 1 points 24 minutes ago

That's when they finally get me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Aslan from the Narnia series is basically a feral fan-made fursona for Jesus

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Please no. I think I'd have no choice but to firebomb the Vatican.

Edit: Catholic furries are fine, I don't have anything against them so long as they're not trying to proselytize or something; but I don't want the Catholic church anywhere near me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Yeah I feel the same, I was just joking

"Ara Ara! Popu-Sensei is so kawaii!" /s Too bad there are so many cases where Catholic anime turns into the darkest type of hentai.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

For young people? What? That doggo there has me rediscovering my faith

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

I mean, look, it's wearing a hat
