What is it with "holy men" and humorous head gear?

[BurtWorm]

Why do the water bottles look more dignified than the humans?

[Dhalgren]

1. Looks like the "bar scene" from "Star Wars"...

[BrklynLiberal]

18. Bwaahaaahaaaaa. Excellent.

[Fenris]

2. I've always wondered...

why God is apparently so concerned with the type of hat that one wears.

[matcom]

4. because that way he/she can tell us apart

from the "animals" :eyes:

[Fenris]

6. Frankly, I think this world would be a better place...

If pigs wore tophats.

[Theres-a]

15. hmmmmmmm

[flakey_foont]

3. Where's the guy

with the CAT IN THE HAT .hat?
no Viking helmet?
or better yet, MIGHTY THOR helmet?
or the mini umbrella hat?

[sui generis]

8. sign me up for the propeller beanie

[terrya]

5. Is that one guy wearing a 10 gallon hat??!!??

WTF!! :-)

[Fenris]

9. Sort of like a Village People line up, no?

[terrya]

11. Yes...but I'm not sure who the 3rd from the left is supposed to represent.

:shrug:

[BurtWorm]

13. He's representing the Coneheads, apparently.

[Fenris]

14. The druid.

He was replaced.:D

[Spider Jerusalem]

17. Maybe he's Aleister Crowley's successor.

[tjwmason]

27. My guess is one of the Orthodox churches

The little thing dangly thing round his neck is very typical.

[Dhalgren]

20. Why, it's Bret Maverick!

Who's the tall dark stranger, there
Maverick is his name
Ridin' the trails to who knows where
Luck is his companion
Gamblin' is his game

Riverboats ring your bells
Fare thee well Annabelle
Luck is the lady that he loves the best
Natchez to New Orleans
Livin' on jacks and queens
Maverick is the legend of the West!

[Spider Jerusalem]

7. The hats contain special transceivers.

They amplify the God-Signal™ that these guys are receiving from the alien entity known as JHVH-1.

[KittyWampus]

10. What About The Ritual Headgear Tibetan Buddhist Monks Wear?

looks like a cocks comb or the "brush" atop the Spartan helmet.

[wtmusic]

12. Good thing Catholics don't subscribe to that crazy stuff...

[Fenris]

16. Hi! I'm King Jesus!

LOL. The Roman Church has never been one for subtlety.

[ScreamingMeemie]

24. As a child, I never could understand the "vow of poverty" thing, while

walking into churches with so much wealth in them.

[Fenris]

26. Ha! You and me both!

The less conservative Catholic church in our town was very austere; the conservative one was sickeningly ornate.

[immoderate]

19. Tradition -- Hats used to signify status.

But now we have cars.

--IMM

[leftofthedial]

21. In the 12th century this used to impress the peasantry

[Bridget Burke]

22. I prefer these to the Backwards Baseball Cap....

Still worn by clueless white guys everywhere.

[tjwmason]

32. As long as Bishops don't get confused and wear their mitres backwards

There are these little dangly bits (whose name I forget) which would fall right in front of their eyes.

[iconoclastNYC]

23. To fool the rubes

"Give em the old razzle dazzle"

Elaborate churches, stained glass, incense, elaborate hats and costumes, snake handling, talking in tongues, church bells, organs, music

All to sell the myth that these people have monopoly access to god and heaven.

[wtmusic]

25. Now is this one for real or just the product

of some Hollywood producer's twisted imagination?

[Theres-a]

28. what!

[tjwmason]

29. Now you've got me going to hell

For laughing at that picture.

Don't take it too badly, I was already going there for many other reasons.

[Theres-a]

30. See you in hell.

[tjwmason]

31. I reckon it's going to be the most kickin party down there n/t
