Crusader, I don't think they were intending to make fun of the Pope because he has Parkinson's. I think they were making fun of him because he seems to be a billion years old. Kind of like making fun of Dick Clark because he's a billion years old. Tacky, sure, but not offensive in his own right, save that he's the Pope and your religious leader.
We all have problems to one extent or another. This thread seams to be a light hearted attempt to joke about it. Not to be taken seriously! I like Dick Clark and Phyllis Diller. But they, like almost everybody on this planet are humorous/ funny. The Bush Twins, Rob Zombi, Marth Stewart, me and you......... Lighten up. You is funny too. oh yea, Marlon Brando, Very large Flesh Golem!CrusaderX said:
The difference is that the Pope is suffering from a disease that greatly contributes to his appearance of fraility. Making fun of people who are suffering from diseases (from Parkinson's to AIDS to whatever) is indeed offensive. I'd say the same thing if someone posted that Michael J. Fox looks like a creepy, frail freak because of his Parkinson's, too.
