Well. Well. Well. Here we are, 2013, and it seems that everyone, even the Pope, is flouncing piracy laws. And flouncing them hard.
According to TorrentFreak, someone (or someones) in Vatican City is downloading some “eye-watering media.”
After finding out that priests in the Irish town of Limerick held “secret pirate movie clubs” in their monastery of Oscar bait such as Lincoln, Les Misérables and Django Unchained, TF looked into the downloading habits of the “most religious city-state in the world”:
The Vatican is a small place so downloading levels are very low. However, we did notice that one particular IP address came up a number of times…It seems that while Vatican dwellers aren’t all that interested in Hollywood movies, they do enjoy adult related celluloid.
In the interests of science we researched each of the titles (including the curiously named RS77_Episode 01) and discovered that downloaders in the Vatican have one or two unusual ‘niche’ interests…There isn’t a commandment that covers these films directly, but some might argue there should be.
Gay Star News (really, doing God’s werq) did a little searching of their own and found that the downloads include a lesbian film starring trans performer Tiffany Starr and a German title loosely translated as “Teen slave punishment games in dark basement workshop.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
We guess that shouldn’t come as a shock considering that Catholics have an affinity for that kinda stuff.
In an interview with the Huffington Post, Starr said that she was “pretty excited” about it, though she’s still totes against piracy. And Lea Lexis, another porn actress whose films proved popular in the VC, is now inspired to set one of her films in a church.
Whomever that illegal pirate may be — parishioner, priest or pontiff — at least they can rest assured knowing that they’ve contributed to an art form. Michelangelo had Pope Julius, Lea Lexis has some dude into German kink. A patron’s a patron.
Oh, and that Lea Lexis film that proved so popular: a scene downloaded from WhippedAss.com that “featured her flogging, paddling and spanking co-star Krissy Lynn before engaging in hardcore sex.”
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy….

For an organization that has a long, long history of torture and abuse of oneself and others, this isn’t surprise. Everyone expects The Inquisition!
