It Ain’t Police Academy, But the Hijinks Could Cost You Your Soul!

The three consciously-casual males at left aren’t new contenders for The Bachelorette.

They’re competitors in Priest Academy, a French web-based reality show brought to you by the humble servants of the Besancon diocese.

A source in France said the premise behind Priest Academy is to encourage more men to become priests because there’s apparently a shortage. Adrants reader Olivier Mermet, who sent us the link, exclaimed, “And do you want to know the worst about it? This is F***in’ true stuff!!”

Indeed. The first episode, which debuted on June 12, generated 90,000 views.

For more social media fun and games with your immortal homeboy Jesus, check out the Pope blog. And hey, it’s never too late to score one of those rad WWJD wristbands.
