Bishop KJ

Bishop Karloff Jimenez (aka Bishop KJ) is a little old man who happens to be a bishop in the Roman Catholic Church of the Philippines. Bishop KJ is close-minded, very grumpy and often has ridiculous ideas for getting his way and making the Church reign supreme in the Philippines. He's the leader of the KJ Trio which consists of himself, Tristan Sacristan and Sister Madre Mia.

Character History
Bishop KJ first appeared in Butthurt Philippines as an unnamed bishop on June 25, 2012. Due to great positive reception, the unnamed bishop was made a bonafide main character in BHP and was given the name Bishop KJ (After the acronym for "kill-joy") on February 7, 2013.

Bishop KJ and the CBCP
In the Philippines today, Roman Catholicism has a strong hold over the Philippines. The CBCP (Catholic Bishops' Council of the Philippines) is a Catholic organization with a sizeable influence over the Filipino masses. The Filipino bishops were criticized for meddling in politics (a violation against the Constitution regarding the separation of Church and State) and living a luxurious lifestyle. Bishop KJ represents the negative reputation of the powerful Filipino Catholic clergy.
