Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
==========
Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world
==========
IMPORTANT
Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta
==========
Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

So, what happens if you've survived a spouse and remarried? Do you have to choose who you want to spend eternity with?
What about adopted and surrogate kids: do they have to hang out with their biological parents now?
Heaven is such a ridiculous concept.
Child mortality was high back then, eh?
Edit: just saw the Anakin after.
Can you explain the Anakin joke, then?
No, but i guess it has another meaning than what i initially thought.
Israel.
What makes me sad about heaven is that there must be a cutoff in the monkey -> human evolution chain. What happened to the very first human that met that cutoff? They'll be in heaven but their parents are too monkey and didn't make it :(
I love this reflection. It kind of shines a spotlight on the fallibility of mainstream religions under rational thought. Could there be something after death? Sure. But the stories people are peddled arent based on any truth, it's just telling people what they want to hear to get them to join the club.
There's a people heaven, and a dog heaven, and a monkey heaven, a bird heaven, etc. Like, what? There's an estimated 8.7 million species on earth, you think there's a heaven for each of them? When evolution spins off something new or species cross breed, like a liger from a lion and tiger, does a new heaven just pop into existence?
Mainstream depictions of heaven are bunk.
If you believe evolution is real, you'll obviously never go to heaven, so you'll never find out.
I don't think God discriminates against monkeys
I thought only humans went to heaven. It's a real can of worms otherwise. Do worms go to heaven? Mosquitos? Bacteria? Viruses?
I hope in a separate heaven then. Or hell? Is a mosquito automatically evil, just because they do evil things (like sucking blood) and literally nobody likes them, not even their predators?
not the mosquito's fault, is it?
American needed another distraction for their pedo kings
Good. Good.
Statistically, if there's an afterlife, there's billions of babies and fetuses in it.
Why are they in a fucking cemetery?! What the fuck is going on up there?
Nietze was wrong, God is undead.
jedis arnt human though, so they dont have a christian equivalent heaven. maybe there is a force version of heaven.
So the entirety of the force ghost thing didnt happen, yeah?
I'm more concerned about the tombstones shown in the panting in heaven. like what happened to THOSE people? are they Super Dead?
If I'm not mistaken, Buddhism had a being that was the ghost of a ghost. Yes, ghosts could die. Probably that's the case.
This picture is from a Jehovah's Witness publication. This isn't a depiction of heaven, but rather a future paradise earth. And the picture depicts various people being redirected back to life.
I saw this picture and it immediately gave me flashbacks to JW flyers
Shit, I've see this painting in person multiple times. I think it's in one of the Manhattan museums. And I never asked any of this.
Those are for the living, waiting to rise up.

That's a lot less dark than i was expecting.
When you reunite with your kids in heaven because their mom went crazy and drive the minivan into a lake with the kids inside.
If i'm wrong someone can correct me, but don't a lot of christians believe that your aoul lies in wait until the day of judgement anyway? So everyone shows up at heaven at the same time.
Time works differently when you're dead
Edit: sorry... don't let me ruin your meme lol, i'm just religious infodumping
It depends. Some sects believe in the concept of "particular judgment" -- you are judged and go to heaven (or hell, or Detroit) immediately upon death (I think Catholics believe this). Other sects believe in the doctrine of "last judgement" where all the dead are put on hold until the end of the world, and then judged en mass. There is, as usual, conflicting Biblical passages on this point.
Well, there's also an apocalypse, right?
My family took a novel approach to it. Everyone gets judged when they die, but only the worst go to hell, and the best go to heaven. The rest wait around until the rapture and then there is Judgement 2: Judgement Day where all the people that were waiting around get judged against all the new people, and then they are split based on some kind of holy bell curve. It was really just a lot of bullshit to get around my family being full of drug addicts and racists and no one wanting to admit that if they go by the Bible they are hellbound.
Holy moly bell curve.

Measles. Thanks RFK Jr.
Isn't it a little tortuous to send children to heaven as children. Even if just a spirit, the appearance and mind of a child feels a little Kirsten Dunst in interview with a vampire. Same with the old. Who wants to go to heaven as an old man or woman?
Most conceptions of heaven kinda feel like hell. This picture scares the hell out of me.

This looks like some jehovahs witness "art."
lots of diversity: check no interracial couples or evidence of them despite lots of diversity: check heaven is a physical place where you keep your body and there's flowers and columns and shit: check 80s romance novel cover horny painting art style: check
No women in pants: check
No clothing diversity
sometimes they do some clothing diversity to indicate country of origin
at least it's not ai slop
I really don't want to think of the implications of there being grave stones in Heaven.
