VIDEO : Stephen Colbert Says He is a Devout Christian

Just when you thought you knew Stephen Colbert, the newly appointed king of late-night comedy is about to offer a surprising look into his very soul. Shortly before he took over the reins for David Letterman on CBS?s The Late Show, Colbert sat down with Father Thomas Rosica, the Vatican?s English language spokesman for the Holy See and CEO of Salt and Light Television based in Toronto, Canada, and poured his heart out about his job, his devout faith, and Pope Francis. Colbert added in the interview that he hopes his connection to his faith helps him find his humor. He says, "We know that I could do my show and make jokes about the Church, and now sit with a priest and laugh about it, that?s a fairly modern behavior. That?s not a hundred-year-old behavior, this is a modern behavior?this is, I hope, the right relationship to have with your faith, which is to love it, but not to exclude it from your intellect.?
