A church minister from Strängnäs in central Sweden has resigned from his post after his porn-surfing habits led to the spread of a virus that knocked out the local church network, Metro reports.



The Church of Sweden minister admitted to spending a lot of time at work viewing pornographic websites.

But his habits might have gone undiscovered had not the sites he visited given rise to a lethal computer virus.

"He recently decided to resign," Charlotta Novosel, a legal spokeswoman for the church, told Metro.

The church authorities have not yet decided whether the minister should be formally defrocked.

The number of sex-related cases involving men of the cloth has skyrocketed in recent years, according to Metro.

"Priests are people too," Archbishop Anders Wejryd told the paper.

"But I have no understanding at all for someone sitting and surfing for porn on the parish computers," he added.

A pastor in Gothenburg recently came under scrutiny for moistening post-it notes with his penis and sticking them up in an office.

After an official review, the authorities decided to allow the minister to remain in his job.





What is the fun in moistening a post it? I guess I don't have a penis so I wouldn't understand....

I have a penis and I think the danger of paper cut on thy penis is enough to ruin any oooooooooooooooooooooo I'm rubbing it on a Post-It, enjoyment. But then again who knows....
