No está muy católico

Can anyone tell me the origin of this colloquialism please? It doesn't seem to be common in Argentina or Mexico, as they never use estar in this instance.

Yes, I know what it means, thanks. I'm just looking for the origin or where it is most commonly used, as my Argentinian and Mexican friends aren't familiar with this saying.
