You know you're in a bad movie when the Catholic clergy is being played by Jews.

My mom always said that if the Protestants catch a Catholic in their church, they feed them to the Jews.
I'm Jewish; I'm not religious at all, and I wouldn't pretend to know anything about Catholic politics.
I'm Jewish, not Catholic, but I'm a spiritual person.
