Someone in the Vatican's technology team is either very stupid or very, very smart.
I'm coming to wonder if Comic Sans might actually be a valuable tool of propaganda in the hands of a group beset by controversy. It helps endear you to a beleaguered base while distracting your opposition: classic plain-folks and derailing tactics in one neat package. As a bonus, bickering over the choice of a font makes the opposition look ridiculous, which poisons the well against them just a little bit more when they stop being distracted, AND gets them to do all of this work for you.
A part of me likes making up conspiracy theories for fun. Maybe this is just that part of me talking. But it's still fun, and I wonder how feasible it would really be to use Comic Sans this way.
