In a short segment on Sundays episode of Last Week Tonight on HBO, the snarky late-night host hilariously highlighted the hypocrisy within the church lamenting the fact that Ireland became the first country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage by popular vote.
I think that you cannot just talk of a defeat for Christian principles, but of a defeat for humanity, said the Vatican's secretary of state (and second-in-command to the Pope), Pietro Parolin last week in a statement.
Settle down a little, Catholic Church, said Oliver in response. Remember, your organizations victories for humanity include crusades, forced adoptions, and running a wildly successful international pedophile exchange program.
Lets save the defeat for humanity accusation for things that truly deserve it, Oliver concluded.
