She could think he's the Antipope.

But there's a danger there if he collides with the Pope as it will cause a catastrophic explosion.

Funny enough, the book Angels & Demons by Dan Brown, which is about the murder of a Catholic priest whom was involved in creating antimatter at CERN, has a direct reference to TNG.

EDIT: In case you aren’t going to read this book or haven’t, the reference is an explanation of how the warp core on the Enterprise-D is powered by matter/antimatter reactions.
