German Vicar Distributes Porn Films by Mistake
BERLIN (Reuters) - A German vicar inadvertently supplied his parish with dozens of hard core porn films in an unsuccessful bid to teach people about the life of Christ.
Frithjof Schwesig, vicar in the southwestern town of Lampoldshausen, had ordered 300 copies of a video film portraying the life of Christ as told by the gospel according to Luke.
"In a first batch 20 to 30 videos were distributed and we immediately got a reaction from five to seven people saying we must have given them the wrong film," he said.
"It was a real porn film. Within an hour our staff had collected all the videos. Really, all were withdrawn."
Schwesig said there had been a mistake at the Munich video copying plant and his staff established in a viewing session that night that 200 of the videos were pornographic.
Undaunted, Schwesig said he was pressing ahead with the life of Christ video campaign.
"It's extremely successful," he said.
...and that's all I'ma say about that! Well no...actually I have one more thing to say. I wonda how many of the church members REALLY returned their copy of the wrong tape. Things to make you say, "hmmmmmm".
