They have no idea what weebs are going to do to the poor mascot.

Dogma vibes

That's just a golden calf with more steps. Little fuckers even yellow. Damned priests need to read their book

Archbishop Finichella says the mascot was inspired by the Church's desire “to live even within the pop culture so beloved by our youth.”

I think her name is Lucy but they all call her Luce

Light, huh? Soon famous sinners are going to start mysteriously dropping dead from heart attacks...

It's pronounced as loo-che

[–] ynazuma@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

You can pronounce it however you want, It is the same root word.

Lucifer means morning star. Luce means light

Sounds like you're interpreting too much into this. They probably just wanted a short name that's easy to remember with a somewhat religious touch.

Really…

I mean, obviously man.

Good try, but I much prefer this Luce mascot: https://www.tenutaluce.com/en/
