TSAR WARS

With the growing excitement about the new Star Wars movie, I think it’s time for me to get into the action by developing my own video game based on the movie.

I’m going to call it “TSAR WARS” and it would feature me as a crime-fighting Pope that can travel through the world and time to fight and destroy evil dictators.

In the game, I’d be able to travel through time and kill off people like Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Lenin, Pol Pot, and the Sith. I might also want to get rid of Galileo because he caused the Church some problems, too.

My goal would be to create peace and harmony in the world.

My weapons would include boiling holy water, an iron Bible with spikes, and an ability to cause people to fall asleep through readings of my catechism. I need to set a meeting with PlayStation.

  1. Most Holy Father,

    Brilliant idea! And you should definitely take out Galileo, I mean you can't take out the Sith and leave Galileo. It's a no-brainer.

    Your Servant,
    GodlessMom

  4. An idea of staggering dimension.

    Might you want to test it out on our own political administration here in the United States? It would definitely give you the attention you desire, and us the reprive we deserve!

  5. Barbara, you continue to amaze me. Let me talk with the Execs at PlayStation and get their thoughts.

  7. That sounds like a great idea! Good luck with this project and be sure to post when the game is available in stores.

  8. Sounds good. Maybe you could dust down the old pope mobile and have a Pod-racer style level.

  9. Peace and harmony achieved through spiked bibles and boiling holy water! Genius! Pure genius.

    Killing people for the lord isn't new of course, but this crusade of yours is fresh.

  10. I would kill them with Kindness! That is a really powerful weapon. Are you really the pope?

    ReplyDelete
  11. You really DO continue to amaze me, Your Holiness. But I guess that is why you're the Pope, and W ain't.

  12. THAT's AWESOME Papa JR!
    i think you should have a sexy blonde sidekick --
    hmm, interesting that you included Lenin... you have a special aversion to communism i see--

  13. Would the apostles be your sidekicks? Or some of the saints or angels? Maybe Matt Damon could be the model for a Loki-type character ("Dogma").

    And I can see the ol' popemobile a la batmobile, all decked out with special options ... shooting rosaries out the back, giving the road a covering of holy water, a Horn that can knock down buildings ...

  16. What the...?!! Hey! Corrupting the minds of the yoofs thru pop culture is MY domain popey!
    DO NOT forget our prior agreement or my creepy minions (lawyers) will be paying yours a visit.

  17. Please Your Holiness, don't be concerned about threats from Lord Lucifer. No one can harm you except God himself/herself.

    Well, I guess Jesus could too, but he's into turning the other cheek, whereas God can be quite vengeful. But not to worry. God picked you to be the Pope, and you can't have done anything to displease him/her this early in your Pope-tum.

  18. Tan Lucy Pez why did you put God himself/herself? In the bible it says God gave His only Son to die on the cross for our sins. HIS ONLY SON!!! How special is that?

  19. Personally I really rather dont like star wars. I know, I am weird right? A lot of my class mates at high school say I am, cuz I dont like star wars. I just dont see whats so facinating about it.

    However, If you did something like X-men, I would get it. I LOVE THE X-MEN! Especialy wolverine, he is cool!

  20. With the wave of a Pope ring, you spawn dozens of small altar boys wearing their tighty whiteys and help you fight crime and do other worldly favors. Bradsblog

  21. your holiness,
    don't forget your other mighty weapons:
    death by incense asphyxiation
    head injury with holy scepter
    strangulation by rosary.....

    ReplyDelete
  22. You all have such wonderful ideas. I can't imagine they'll turn me down now.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Or a beating with the cross.
    I imagine being nailed to it is not pc

  24. Tonight's dinner consisted of medium rare NY strip steak, scalloped potatoes and fresh sweet green peas with sauteed mushrooms. I'll bring along my personal chef if we get that invite to the Vatican. Deal?

  25. Scott, you're invited anytime.

  26. You're just stealing ideas from South Park!

  28. Time for everyone to be jealous, even envious. My family is going to see the new Star Wars movie TOMORROW night! Yes, Friday, the 13th. A sneek preview. Hooray!! My daughter will blog about it all after we get back:

    You should include poisoned Pinot in your weapons.

  29. Ho Pope,

    Why stay in modern times? You could do something along the lines of Command and Conquer and re-live all the old battles - Derry,
    Aughrim, Enniskillen and the Boyne. Defeat Protestantism in one fell swoop, get Luther, Calvin, Knox, Pastor Jack Glass, Ulrich the Z, not to mention King Billy himself, and put them all to death.

    Codemasters (Genius atPlay) might let you name the game "Worms:the Die-it"

  33. Luther was a great man! I don't know why you would want to kill him!

  34. i forgot to add this if galileo had not been there we would have never been able to solve the mysterious of outer space and would have remained as ignorant of space as we are of pollution these days...also, could u tell me y there are no women in the the papal heirarchy...i am extremely against the church against many of its ideas, i study in tenth grade and have got to know this much thro my history teacher and therby wanted to know why in an age of liberalisation and globalisation there has been no advancement in the church's character towards advancement and freedom of the people!!!!!

  36. thats what i wanna say as well, people who attacked the world did not do so without any rhyme or reason, but with a powerful objective and only the one with the drive and determination to complete it cld ever achieve wat hitler did!!!

  37. 48 comments must be a record! It is so good to see that the Catholic church has not lost its appeal nor fallen out of favor with all the recent scandals over the past few years.

    It must be your reasuring presence, Pope Joe!

    Three Cheers.

  40. Vipul,

    Good question. Let me blog about that. I need to get back to work. My computer is having some problems. The Vatican I.T. crew is not very helpful.

  41. Your holiness,

    It sounds an awful lot like an old cartoon by Hanna-Barbera called "Super President". The president, with
    the help of his loyal chief of staff, would head for secret subfloors of the white house to his special jet whenever trouble appeared that was too difficult for the normal authoriites to handle.

    Looked and sounded an awful lot like "Space Ghost", Birdman and of course, Scott McCloud the EBI's "Space Angel" from Cambria studios here in sunny CA.

    Which reminds me, you should start a new late night show on the EWRT network... "The Pope Coast to Coast".
    Whaddya think?

  42. I think the guy who writes this blog is very intelligent: not as intelligent as our lovely new Pope but... you know how to make people laugh. Are you a professional comedian?
    I have to say though, with this one you are a bit wide of the mark. The REAL Pope Benedict XVI would never advocate what you're suggesting. I think one thing we've learnt is that peace and harmony don't happen through bashing people over the head. A truly intelligent and truly gentle man like Papa Ratzi can see that. Doug, no one is forcing their views on you. Even with evangelisation there is the free will to refuse that God gave everyone.
