Catholics are pretty under-represented when it comes to cartoons. Sure, there are plenty of Protestant characters, even some Jews, but rarely do you see Catholics. That’s why the Church is doing its best to convert cartoon characters. Among the most recent converts are Homer and Bart Simpson.
The Vatican’s official newspaper, which was taking time to address the truly important matters facing the Catholic Church today, said that Bart and Homer were Catholics because of the way they live their lives. This is news to the writers.

- Jesus Christ — “South Park”
- Yogi Bear (converted in the final season so that Cindy would marry him)
