after Mass, the priest said: "So, shall we all watch a video? There's 'The Life of John Paul II' (or somesuch), or The Life of Brian".video in a pub in Ireland while it was banned for being blasphemous

Cool priest.
We had a great one in school who was constantly on about performance cars.

Oh, and for the record, I thought 4 Lions was funny too, for the same reasons.
