Are You Kidding Me?

We started off with babes in bikinis, moved onto shirtless Chippendales, then spawned off a whole breed of calendars from every walk of life featuring half naked (or totally naked but strategically covered) people. You remember the old ladies in England or all those little towns trying to raise money for something that are featured on the talk shows where the people pose "naked". There are also, and I do enjoy these, the calendars with the naked guys from that French rugby team.

I get those.

What I don't get is the the calendar I read about on Kenneth in the (212) and then further on tmz.com. It seems there is a calendar going out and about with pictures of hot priests who look like celebs. Yup, sort of a Vatican beefcake calendar.

You have got to be kidding me right? First of all, who is going to hang this calendar in their bedroom and go all goo goo eyed over the priest in the cassock? Certainly not little Mary Margaret dreaming of becoming a nun (although I have known some freaky people in my life time who have had a priest fetish, but I'm sure this wasn't aimed at them). And what is with taking the holy men of the church and turning them into "sex" objects. I thought the Church was against the whole sexuality thing. I'm just absolutely baffled. I would like to know who thought that this was a great idea. Of course it will probably sell a good many just for the novelty of it.
