Bottoms Up for Benedict: Pontiff in Porno Picture Shocker

This photo from the pope's recent visit to Edinburgh is all kinds of wonderful. For a start, there's the Bottoms Up Pole Dancing Revue Bar and adjacent sauna parlour in the background [the Pope's route took him past an area of Edinburgh so stuffed with strip pubs and sex workers, locals call it the Pubic Triangle].

Then there's the popemobile's tinted glass make it seem the pontiff is actually a kind of underwater exhibit from a freakshow. Does he have gills, you wonder? Thirdly there's the man throwing what looks like a Nazi salute at his holiness. So - sex, freaks and Nazis, all in one pic. Can't say fairer than that, can you.

Picture came courtesy of the always entertaining blog McShandy's, who was tipped off about the photo by crime writer Ian Rankin. [Old Town Top Rankin, in this case.] Cheers, gents!
