Offending Catholics one eyeliner at a time

I'm going to preface this by saying that I'm Catholic and I find this hilarious.

So I read an article from MSNBC (courtesy of Mom) about a British cosmetics line by Topshop that got kicked out of stores in Singapore because it offended Catholics, who make up 15 percent of the population.

The line is called Jesus cosmetics (I can't help but laugh every time I say it aloud) and "extolled the virtues of 'Looking Good for Jesus'".

The photo is an example of something you'd have found on the shelves in Singapore before the line got banned. It just looks so goofy.

I don't know who comes up with this stuff, but it's great.
