I'm not sure if this is too sad to laugh at.

Oy...

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

This looks like a plagarism of "King of the Hill"'s Mexican soap opera about Monsenior Martinez, the "action priest" whose catchphrase is, "Via con dios."

Father Meyer said it got a huge response. "They were going like hotcakes. Young kids wanted them to hang in their bedrooms, high school students wanted them to hang in their lockers," he said. "That is invaluable. If we can get kids to hang a picture of a priest in their room, we've done something huge for vocations."

You don't suppose that 95% of the young kids hanging this poster happen to be female. I could be wrong, but I doubt that the poster would have the same appeal if the model had been middle-age, balding, and slightly over weight.

Could be just a good looking guy with props.

You're not saying the Catholoic church is using sex to sell itself? For shame!
