Somehow, I really don't think this is what Jesus would wear.

8. He is a Tom Wolfe wannabe....
wearing a white suit after labor day! It may not be a sin, but it's a major fashion faux pas.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...


...unless you're the self-proclaimed spiritual leader of the world, telling your flock that they'll burn in hell for doing the exact same thing.

15. Anyone who calls themselves a representative of god
and dresses up like that deserves to be mocked.

16. As opposed to God's representatives who wear. . .
seersucker suits and nooses around their necks?

I knew in my heart by pure logic that any man who calls himself a religious leader and owns more than one suit is a hustler as long as there is someone in the world who has no suit at all. ~ Lenny Bruce

VATICAN CITY — Whether it's Prada and Gucci, or just fancy ecclesiastical tailoring, Pope Benedict XVI is his own man when it comes to dressing. Just days before Christmas, Benedict showed up at his weekly public audience in St. Peter's Square wearing a fur-trimmed stocking cap that could have passed for a Santa Claus hat.

Earlier this month, he made another fashion statement — donning a red velvet cape trimmed in ermine for the traditional papal visit to the statue of the Madonna near the Spanish Steps that marks the beginning of Rome's Christmas season.
<varied clips>

The bright red Santa cap certainly has a distinguished papal pedigree.

Called a ``caumaro,'' the long forgotten head-covering dates to the Middle Ages and figures in many famous papal portraits, including one of Julius II by Raphael. It was last worn by John XXIII, who was pontiff more than 40 years ago.

The velvet cape called a ``mozzetta'' has also been part of official papal attire but hadn't been seen since John XXIII's successor, Paul VI, in the 1970s. With its regal trimming, it is reminiscent of a time of papal political power some prefer to relegate to history books...

23. I think most gay people
at least the ones I know, have very active senses of humor and would agree that Poparatzie certainly has a 'flair' for fashion.
