We've heard of priests doing stuff to get young people pumped up about the church -- adding an acoustic guitar to the service, getting a rad crucifix tattoo -- but a Catholic priest in Illinois blows them all out of the holy water. Emphasis on blow.

Reverend Christopher Layden, 33, was recently arrested and charged with possession and distribution of cocaine at his home, the University of Illinois campus church rectory. He pleaded not guilty in court and is currently under suspension by the Catholic Diocese of Peoria.

If he wasn't ratted out by the Drug-Busting Bear, we suspect campus officials got suspicious when the nuns started hitting the bathroom five at a time.


Our biggest problem with cocaine as a drug is that it does nothing to increase the trippiness of black light posters like the ones below ...

Our Favorite Blacklight Posters

    Lucky for all of us, Planet Psychedelic Mushroom appears to be centrally located to Earth.

    "Caterpillars smoking hookahs" is just one distinct sub-genre of the blacklight community.

    We will be playing "Don't Fear the Reaper" on repeat as long as this poster remains on the wall.

    Too easy.

    Dude, it's cool to have a majestic beautiful unicorn on your wall, right?

    M'lady is packing the bowl.

    Dragon? Check. Wizard? Check. The only thing missing is a hot fantasy babe.

    The devil? Smoking a doob? Doesn't get more hardcore than that.

    Einstein was all about psychedelia.

    If this poster was on our wall, we'd never sleep again.
