David Letterman Mocks Pope, Catholic Church [View all]

David Letterman pulls every punch he can when it comes to President Barack Obama, but he has no qualms mocking the Pope or the Catholic Church.

On the July 23 edition of CBS’s The Late Show, Letterman brought up Pope Francis’s recent visit to Rio as part of World Youth Day.

“And I’m telling you if there’s anything the kids can’t get enough of, it’s a 76-year-old virgin. Come on! World Youth Day. Or as the Vatican calls it, salute to altar boys.”
