172: Pope Caganer |
|
|
|
The Poop... whoops... Pope has been honoured by the Catalan people who have given him his own Caganer, showing him quietly and reverently depositing a little turd on the ground.
Caganers are traditional figures made for Catalonian manger scenes at Christmas. Along with Mary, Joseph and the rest of the Christmas cast, the Catalans also add a character with his pants down, transacting his business in a corner of the stable. Some say it's just for laughs, while others think there's a theological point being made about the earthiness of Christ's birth.
"Even the President of the United States sometimes must have to stand naked," sang St Bob Dylan. And likewise the Pope, of course. Baring his buttocks in your manger scene for just 14 Euros. Order here!
