So at work the other day I see a woman with a t-shirt with Kylo Ren's ignited lightsaber, hilt up, so it look's like a cross. I forgot if it was on the back or front of the shirt but it mentioned Isaiah, as in "Isaiah x:xx". I didn't catch the exact chapter and verse.
But since it's usally a christian thing, I'm wondering, does she not know that Kylo Ren is the bad guy? How clueless is it to appropriate something from pop-culture that would espouse the opposite of what you believe in? I did a quick look at the wikipedia entry for book of Isaiah, and really don't see the connection.
Hopefully the woman was wearing the shirt ironically?
The I saw her son's shirt. I'm sure the quote was on teh front of the shirt: Judge me by my size, do you?
I'm thinking, Ok, Yoda quotes can be appropriated for a Christian ideology. The back had Yoda in a Mickey Mouse hat, in line for a ride but the sign in front of Yoda said, "you must be this tall to ride." Ok, that was a funny t-shirt.
