Mel Gibson shows his Irish Passion...

You'd know he had Irish roots - Mel Gibson, like many Irish stars, has attacked the The Roman Catholic Church, saying he does not believe in the Church as an institution.

The actor, who says that he is an "old fashioned Catholic" who rigorously supports the Latin Mass, is shooting new movie Passion in Italy.

Gibson, 46, had a Catholic upbringing and attended a Catholic boys school in Australia. "I believe in God," he tells Italian newspaper Il Giornale. "My love for religion was transmitted to me by my father. But I do not believe in the Church as an institution."

Gibson has a private chapel at his home in Malibu, California, at which the service is conducted every Sunday in Latin.

Latin Mass is now said rarely in churches - it was abolished in the 1960s amid reform to bring the church service closer to the people by ordering clergy to say Mass in the vernacular.

Gibson also reveals in the interview than his only daughter Hannah wants to be a nun.

He says he is very happy about her decision adding that she is "healthy, smart and well travelled" and he doesn't have to worry about her.
