The Polish legislature is currently debating a law that would make Jesus Christ the King of Poland:
WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Lawmakers have drawn up a resolution naming Jesus Christ as the honorary king of Poland, but have failed to win support from the country’s powerful Roman Catholic church.
Lawmakers for the ruling Law and Justice party and League of Polish Families as well as the opposition Peasants Party back the resolution, said Szymon Ruman, spokesman for parliamentary speaker Marek Jurek.
The Roman Catholic Church, though, isn’t biting:
“Let parliament deal with passing better laws that we need,” Gdansk Archbishop Tadeusz Goclowski said.
“This kind of action, although it may stem from good will, sounds a bit like propaganda,” said bishop Tadeusz Pieronk.
That’s the understatement of the year.
What I wonder, though, is how long it will take for Pat Robertson to pick up on this idea.
