This really looks like what I would expect the entrance to hell to look like. The big being in the center looks like he has some kind of demon growing out of the left side of his head.
The victorious Christ is rising out of Hell and casting off the demons that are trying to drag him down. And beneath these demons are the representatives of the Catholic church. Figure that one out.
"Emperor Palpatine will have an audience with you now". (Even from that distance his wretched eyes look pitch black. Very fitting for a former SS boy.)
How do you commission a work of art like that without saying "Now I don't want some regular Jesus on a cross thing, this has to be Bad-Ass first and GIANT second"
everybody looking at this feels the evil of the background. Catholicism has nothing to do with Christianity and is very paganistic. This man has a cross on his staff with an emaciated Jesus on it, like satanists. He also has a mitre of the fish god Dagon. He's got knights templar's crosses on his regalia. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/88 ...
He also has a pine cone on his staff which is a symbol of fertility and immortality. http://historical.benabraham.com/assets/images/Con ...
The image of "don't ***** with me" resonates from this throne.. really anything he can do to appear as though he's a "god" so he can continue keeping his business the number one profit maker in the world is a good thing for him.
The moment he gives up this image of power people will see him for what he is: a lonely, pitiful power-hungry elderly man just looking for a buck.
The book of Daniel and Revelation clearly tells us that Satan is using the Catholic Organization to distort what God says in the Bible. To replace God and His commandments, and they even admit it in their documents! Who can forgive sins but Christ alone? Clearly the Antichrist.
