You know, I just can’t leave this whole matrix thing alone. And now it seems that the Catholics are getting in on the act in the form or a new poster that “personifies the priest as a hero”:

“Just as Keanu Reeves fought against the powers of evil, a priest comes to help people fight against sin. There is a battle out there,” explained Father Jonathan Meyer, associate director of youth and young adult ministry for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis.
…
The poster, which is modeled after an advertisement for the movie “The Matrix,” is the brainchild of Father Meyer. It features a priest in full cassock — and the requisite Roman collar — holding a cross in one hand and a rosary in the other. And he is wearing sunglasses.

But you know, they really might be on to something here. Imagine an edgy poster, vivid colours, Brad Pitt… I was thinking maybe something like this.
