I hear that Pope Francis is going to be delivering his Easter mass from a juvenile detention center. To show his 'humility' he will be washing the feet of twelve inmates. Young, virile, rough, hardened, bad boy detainees.

Don't knock it! Finally a high-up religious figure who seemingly isn't afraid to mix it with the general public.
