Former President Jimmy Carter will become Catholic if two things happen: First, if Pope Francis stays in office. Secondly, if a female priest asks him to join her church.
Cue raucous applause and chants of “Jimmy! Jimmy! Jimmy!” from the Colbert Nation studio audience.
Carter guested on Tuesday's “Colbert Report” to promote his 28th book, “A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence and Power.” The liberal former Commander-in-Chief and the conservative Comedy Central character duked it out over a number of issues mentioned in the book's subtitle.
While both are Christian, they are divided among the denominations.
