The Vatican announced this morning that they will be launching their own airline carrier. The planned airline will take passengers to various Roman Catholic holy sites around Europe and the Middle East, supposedly for a greatly discounted rate. The entire airliner will be adorned in religious decoration, and will feature Christian entertainment in-flight. The effort is hoping to shuttle 150,000 Catholics a year on its single Boeing 737, which is run by Italy's Mistral Air.

Ok, this is all well-and-good, and I'm sure I could go into a lengthy diatribe about how the planes are fueled by communion wine* instead of jet fuel, but actually I have a semi-serious question: What happens if the plane crashes? The only Roman Catholic-only airline in the world... crashes? Or, even worse, becomes the victim of a hyjacking. I'm sure it wouldn't cause the fall of the Church or anything, but its kinda like hearing that Britney Spears decided to surgically attach a penis to her forehead. Its interesting news and all, but it definitely can't look good.
* - Everyone knows that Jesus powers 737's not with communion wine, but with the simple sex appeal eminated from his bad-ass pair of sandals.
