A potpourri of popery

A protest song from Tim Minchin (if you're sensitive about the F-word, be aware that he does use it once or twice in this video):

I have to admit I was a bit shocked by this one.  The German at the beginning is not correct.

It is, of course, very unfair to suggest that the Catholic priesthood is similar to the Epstein client list.  They're completely different.  The Catholic priesthood does boys, the Epstein clients do girls.
