Justin Bieber Beliebes

The greatest news of our generation for religion has occurred. (Assuming, you ignore every other bit of news about Religion that has ever happened). Justin Bieber has been baptized and saved!

Religious publication, GQ, provides us the story:

“I want to know Jesus,” Justin Bieber sobbed to Pastor Carl. And so together they prayed. Suddenly, Justin was overcome by the Gospel, and he said, “Baptize me.” And Pastor Carl said, “Yes, buckaroo”—he really does call Bieber buckaroo, and now you should, too—“let’s do this. Let’s schedule a time.” But Justin Bieber couldn’t be Justin Bieber for one minute longer. “No, I want to do it now.” And Pastor Carl saw salvation in Justin’s eyes, and knew that his baptism couldn’t come quickly enough.

This is the same Bieber who a while back was interviewed by Complex and had the following to say:

Like I said, you don’t need to go to church to be a Christian. If you go to Taco Bell, that doesn’t make you a taco.

These statements quickly made Bieber unpopular with both Christians and Taco Bell fans everywhere, but it seems that he has seen the light. Now, having been baptized in Tyson Chandler’s tub, Justin “Buckaroo” Bieber is a changed man. There is no word on how he feels about Taco Bell, but I suspect like in matters of the faith he will come around to that too.

If only Catholicism were so easy…
