Nostrum Virilium XVI

All you must do to have eternal life is believe in Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was God, but he became human and lived a righteous life, despite being tempted to sin as we are. He did good unto all men, cast out devils, healed the sick, and did all manner of miracles. He was killed, not unwillingly, but out of his love for us. He died and spent 3 days and 3 nights in hell. Through this, he atoned for the sins of the world. After these 3 days, he rose again. After 40 days, he ascended up to heaven to sit on the right hand of God, where he now waits until the last day, when he will make war with the kingdoms of this earth, and establish an everlasting kingdom on the earth.

All who believe in him have their sins forgiven through his death; and they will be brought back to life just like he was, and will join his army to conquer the earth.

The Jedi, Rebel Alliance, and Galactic Republic in Star Wars are based on New Age religion, Universalism, Catholicism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Democracy, Republicanism, Vigiliantism, Rebellion (obviously), Communism, Christianity, Gnosticism, Judaism, Samurai, Knights, Cowboys, etc.

The Sith in Star Wars are based on the German Empire (Second & Third Reich), Roman Empire, British Empire, Christianity, Sorcery, Judaism, Occultism, Witchcraft, Knights, Samurai, Paganism, etc.

George Lucas claims his religion is a "Methodist-Buddhist."
George Lucas was inspired by the Hero's Journey, written by Joseph Campbell, who was himself influenced heavily by Carl Jung, the guy who basically invented psychology, which is satanic to the core.

George Lucas also claimed he asked his mother once, "If there are so many religions, how can there only be one God?"

His conclusion was that "All religions must be true."

He likened the force once in an interview to the 'spirit' or 'force' that Native Americans (Indians) would use to bless the rocks and trees and that they would pray to when they hunted and killed an animal.

George Lucas claims to be heavily into anthropology. Which, as a study, concedes to evolution.

If you are a Christian, you can't believe in evolution.

If you are a Christian who claims to believe in evolution, you believe that man is a beast. In believing that man is a beast, you believe, therefore, that Jesus Christ was not fully man and fully God, but fully beast and fully God. Evolution is, as such, incompatible.

The problem with Star Wars is that it was made by the wrong people. And that it continues to be made by the wrong sorts of people.

Really, like with any media, as a Christian, you can't take it as seriously as the people who write it and make it their life do.

Star Wars is not, and has never been, my religion. My religion is Christianity. It will always be Christianity. It will never not be Christianity.

With this in mind, a fictional franchise that I enjoyed as a child, even then wishing it was made by and loved by people with more respect for Christ, is something I can easily enjoy as just a mere fantasy.

And that's all it is.

Christianity, however, is no mere fantasy. And you can pretend to yourself that Christ never rose, all you want. And you can point at my love for fiction as though that is somehow evident that my love for the Bible is just a manifestation of that. It isn't. It never has been, and it never will be.

Fiction is fiction.
The Bible is nonfiction.
You can pretend it's fiction if it makes your fedora-tipping self feel better.

My personal ranking of the Star Wars films (AKA, why the fandom probably hates me):

1. Revenge of the Sith
2. Return of the Jedi
3. Attack of the Clones
4. The Phantom Menace
5. A New Hope
6. Empire Strikes Back
7. The Force Awakens
8. The Last Jedi
9. The Rise of Skywalker

Also the 2011 special editions are peak and I’m tired of pretending they’re not.

Did it ever occur to you that I don't merely sound power hungry? And that there's nothing wrong with desiring power, aside from abusing it? Or perhaps you believe that power will inevitably be corrupted, trusting not in the teachings of the Lord, but in the words of lord Acton, a heretical catholic and a liberal, a practitioner of the vain philosophy of man, who claims that 'absolute power will corrupt absolutely.' Do you believe it's impossible to desire to wield power justly for one's own people, of which you so clearly are not?

Do you think I'm not aware of what you preach? The lives you tell them to indulge in, which you have also tried to get me to indulge in? And when I refused, what did you do? Did you accept that I was not interested? No. You scoffed and you mocked, like you did to my Lord. And you continue to do so. And when I accepted, and later repented and spoke against you, did you turn away from the way you lived, and tell those you led astray to do so as well? No. You cried, "Oh, hypocrite." And you continue to do so.

And to you, who whisper in the pews in the halls of the congregations I no longer sit amidst. Who scoff and mock in shrieking laughter. You relish not in reverence towards one another, but in the mockery of such reverence. You relish not in sanctity and holiness, but in the mockery of all that is sacred. You profess yourselves wise, but are as fools. You find my seriousness towards the things of God not something to be taken as respect and adoration for the divine, but as something to be mocked and cast as infantile. You value not the chastening of the Lord. You value not His teachings, nor His people whom you profess to sit among. You would not desire, as our Lord would, that I be led away from temptation. You would take part in the things our Lord despises and lead me into houses and to places of work and worship that would permit such debauchery. You would distract me from our Lord and disturb my rest when it suits to pursue vain ambitions. You would bring me before depravity and leave me there, if need be, and the depraved, their smiles, their grins like irreverent blighters, would scoff, and mock, and hold all desire for me to remain in their hands, or cast me out to leave me to further degrade in my solitude. For among you, I sin. Away from you, I sin as well. It seems I can find no peace, and no brethren befitting. May our Lord help us all, then. For He is the only true hope in the end. The Lord be with you, amen.

If I can't win with her, then I must win against her. And if I can't win against her or win with her, I will not and cannot "just move on."

(If you're confused what this message is about it's because it's not meant for you.)
