Title: Is Pope Benedict XVI a villain or not ?
Post by: Naryar on January 29, 2011, 02:39:49 PM
Discuss.

I was searching for a little while. I personally think he's Lawful Neutral but hardly can be considered as one.

Power greedy ? Yes. Uncompromising ? Yes. Cunning ? Hell yes. Magnificent Bastard-y ? Possibly. Evil ? No.

If he honestly believes in a god, then no.
The day there's a pope that actually doesnt believe in god, then he'll be magnificently evil.

But the concept of evil is different from person to person, so while he may not be to you, he may be to other people. :P

well, knowing he was part of something where children were abused and he wanted to have it unknown to the world... yes, this one is evil.

I'm pretty sure he was related to the Nazis or something similar. That ranks pretty high on the list of Evil legions, behind The Sith, and only slightly ahead of AceUplink. =P

Personally, I'm not that interested in what the Pope is doing. I don't really like religion all that much.

Yes, he was apparently a member of the Hitler Youth at one point.

Yes, he was in the Hitler Youths at one time, but it seems he didn't liked it.

Its not your fault if youre a part of the Hitler stuff...
You either do it, Or you die... Being an Official though, Thats somethign else, But just a soldier... Its not like you WANTED to do those things.
(Maybe they did, But maybe some dindt)




PS: Wasnt Hitler Youth the thigny were the little kids get taught military stuff?
If he was a kid back there what could he do about it? :P

Yeah he did it because he was probably forced. But again, he was a child back then, and he did probably not knew about what was revealed after World War 2.

Anyways, I'll give him credit for an awesome smile.

He's the dude that tells people to accept it when God says it's their time, and then leaves in an armored vehicle.

He actually looks like Darth Sidious in that photo. I keep expecting him to go "Execute Order 66".
