I've heard you can also use the in-game item "prepubescent boy" to attract the rare catholic priest. Feed it enough prepubescent boys to give them the "resassigned" perk.
Although be wary because there's a 2% chance they'll get the event "convicted" where you lose your priest to the unreasonable mobs of atheists who claim it's wrong to insert the divine seed into the unworthy.
But if you do get the reassigned perk, there's a 0.2% chance that you'll get to make a custom saint, who, depending on their country of origin, can reduce the legislation on child molestation for the good of the faith.
I'm still waiting on the "David vs. Goliath" gamemode, where the honorable nuns go undercover to various neighborhoods to poke holes into condoms to reduce the debuff "The Sin of Birth Control", which affects the "Future lower class believer" stat.

Haha ok, this is without a doubt the most funniest thing I read here so far!

No, there is no conviction, a bad roll just means the priest is reassigned to another parish.

If we're truthful, there's a percentage. I presented it as a low percentage because humor goes better with a dose of truth than with an easily disprovable fact that can get someone riled up for no reason:

Niantic's main source for hubs were registered pieces of art, churches have many pieces commissioned and registered so they got a lot of the virtual hubs. This was news ages ago.

They were submitted by Ingress players. One of the acceptance criteria is "PUBLIC PLACES OF WORSHIP". This obviously includes all the churches, shrines or other sacral objects.

Indeed, though I was led to believe it was due to the art and that was just an acceptable criteria of a venue. I could vary well be mistaken as that seems as if it were ages ago... which it sort of was. My b.

They'd have to do side-hugs though regular hugs are too much fornication.
Edit: Ooops sorry, side-hugs are actually gateway drugs, we're doing christian air slaps now.

This reminds me of the case of Russian blogger Ruslan Sokolovsky who decided to test how the law about "insult of feelings of believers" was applied, went to a church and played Pokemon GO there (he posted a video about that). He's still on probation (the guy got lucky). I'm not even sure why I'm writing about that, I don't really have a point.

Can't wait to collect different crosses to nail you Jesus to, different legionnaire's spears to stab him with etc. Maybe there'll be different foods for him to multiply?
Also half-expecting this catching flak because female saints are under-represented or something.

I can't figure out if it's the funniest or saddest thing I've read this week.
On the one hand, it's hilarious that they think they can get kids to get interested in religion by copying a "trendy" game
On the other hand, it's kinda sad that they are even trying to be hip by copying a game that hasn't been trendy in what? 3 years? (God took 6 days to create the Earth and everything. Took them what? 3 years to get their app running?)
Up next: Jesus-Man. A cool game where Jesus is eating bread and drinking wine, while trying to avoid Roman Legionnaires chasing him?

Game is broken. Jesus is said to have been crucified with either 3 or 4 nails but over 30 holy nail relics are venerated. Gotta catch 'em all?

"The Vatican has introduced a new app for iOS and Android that is heavily inspired by Niantic’s Pokemon GO.
It might be fun to chase after Pikachu or Squirtle, but the Vatican is keen for you to follow the words of Jesus Christ with Follow JC Go.
Pope Francis has given his blessing to the smartphone application which has you creating your own avatar and capturing famous saints from the religion.
Having launched on October 19, the game has you capturing in a mixture of saints, biblical characters, and other figures to join your Evangelization Team and complete in-game challenges.
“You know, Francis is not a very technological person, but he was in awe, he understood the idea, what we were trying to do: combine technology with evangelization,” Ricardo Grzona, executive director of Fundación Ramón Pané, told Crux Now.
While exploring using GPS technology random saints and other holy figures might ask you trivia questions regarding bible quotes and other things, so you best keep a tome handy.
There’s only a Spanish version of Follow JC Go right now, given that its the native language of Pope Francis, although we’d be keen to see an English release.
Despite its obvious inspiration, this could be a great way of educating young players on religious history, if that’s the kind of thing you’re into. "
