I vaguely remember a priest having blessed his guns in Constantine ( the Keanu Reeves one).

Or perhaps it was Dogma?

You might be confusing movies with Texas...

We genuinely have churches that'll have congregants bring in their guns en masse to have them blessed so that they'll shoot the right thing. Seriously.

Texas: the state so bad that even the dude who designed the flag rated it one star.

They just copied California's original flag.

Star Bear out of 5 is a much more accurate rating for California anyway 😁

I just wish they would redraw the bear. He's scared right now. The bear should be neutral or angry, not scared.

I haven't seen Constantine but George Carlin as a priest in Dogma blessed his golf clubs. That allowed them to kill a demon.

That's what I'm thinking of!

In Dogma, the catholic Cardinal played by George Carlin blessed his golf clubs. Silent Bob used it to kill the demon.

And I believe all of Constantine's weapons were blessed. So he could kill demons.

maybe we're thinking of Equilibrium?
