Emperor Palpatine and Pope Benedict

Were Emperor Palpatine and Pope Benedict XIV separated at birth? You decide. Pretty freaky . . . .

"Hard to see, the darkside is...."

 

I remember, watching him coming out of those red curtains on tv, I had a shock.

"He looks like Emperor Palpatine."
Me and my bro just chuckled. I'm sure GL has nothing to do with this election.

 

Yep. Unless it's actually Palps himself trying to take over the world...

 

What about this?

I would think you would be a little more discrete about such offensive material...

 

Offensive material?

 

I'm sure I would not be the only person on this board offended by this thread... And the only reason I am even humoring it with with a response is that I'm hoping someone will realize it's offense, and lock it.

 

Strange. I can't see anything wrong in this thread.

 

I'm sure no one intended it to be offensive... but you certainly must understand where superimposing the head of a leader of the Catholic Church onto the body of a "dark lord" might be construed as "offensive".

 

I'm Catholic, and while other more serious people may be offended I really couldnt keep from laughing

 

"superimposed"? what in the world does that mean? i thought that picture was a candid shot of pb practicing in his back yard.

 

Ok... mabye I am taking it too seriously... Like I said... I'm sure no one intended it to be offensive. Mabye I am just taking it the wrong way. (I have a tendancy to complain too much )

 

I'm Catholic and I don't find it offensive but there are people out there that would start bitching at you about and want you dead.

 

I'm not Catholic but I find this extremely offensive.....everyone knows that George W. Bush is going to be Emperor.

 

touche'

 

I'm Catholic.

 

this is sooo great.

 

I'm not Catholic and I'm not offended.

 

I'm just going to put this in here because I don't feel like making another thread...

Today I was working out at the gym and there was this old guy there that looked almost identical to Ian McDiarmid. The body, stance, face, hair, eyes. I heard him talk though and he sounded nothing like him

 

I`m Catholic,its not offensive its just stupid fun...

My cousin tells me theres a picture of Palpy and Benedict's faces scanned together

 

I'm not catholic and I'm not offended.

 

X2

 

I'm catholic, but as a SW fan how could I not make the comparison?
