CBC Continues to Bash Christianity with "Gag" Portraying Nun and Priest Necking

OTTAWA, February 16, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Canada's national public broadcaster, the CBC, is apparently not satisfied with offending Christians with a live gay marriage aired on the day designated by Christian groups to celebrate the sanctity of marriage. A CBC comedy program called 'Just for Laughs Gags' which aired Friday night, had two actors dress up as a nun and a priest and go out on a busy street for a "make out" session in order to secretly film reactions of passers by.

The incident is not the first time the CBC comedy program has offended Catholics. LifeSiteNews.com spoke with the Catholic Civil Rights League about a similar program a few months ago. In October last year, the same program showed a 'gag' of an actress in a Catholic nun's costume dropping sexually explicit photographs of naked men. The photos appeared to be falling from a black book which seemed to be a Bible.
