He’s not supposed to be there. Do burglars get to defend themselves when the homeowner looks scary? If someone killed your mother after breaking into your house would he care if he THOUGHT he was doing the right thing?

And Osha wants to 'go see the galaxy' or whatever? Does leaving one strict order of Force uses to join ANOTHER strict order of Force users make any sense?
because one order lives exclusively on Brendok never leaves and one Order travels the entire galaxy. As evidenced by the Jedi on Brendok.
She knows it’s her only other option.

Of COURSE he's wrong! That's what is so laughably absurd about all of this! He disobeys the council, and other Jedi tag along to go test Osha... This is so unlike what Jedi are supposed to be, but the show doesn't have any clue what it's doing. It needs rogue Jedi to have its anti-authority fetish story. That's the point.
Are you going to pretend the Jedi Order was always perfect? The Lore is filled with good Jedi, Fallen Jedi and everything in between.
It’s like the catholic church. There are good priests, there are bad priests, There are priest who will cover for the bad priests to protect the church.
Most catholics will tell you the church as a whole is good and important.

I assume you meant comparative not competitive?
they absolutely are in some ways.
Do you know many other organizations that demand chastity, teach spirituality while also involving themselves in politics?

No they aren’t and the only reason you think this is based off of one throw away line in ANH that was meant as an ignorant mockery towards Vader. Disney has taken that and used it to undercut the Jedi so of course a simp like you buys into it 100%. Don’t be such a tool.

Chastity is to keep them from attachment which leads to fear and so on which corrupts their power
Spirituality for them is more like a Tibetan monk where they focus their minds to be aware of the force. It has nothing to do with ideology which is what you’re incorrectly suggesting. Pre Disney you had to work hard, train your mind and focus to be able to access the force and that’s what this is for. Now all you have to be is selected and you have automatic powers beyond anything because it’s stupid but you prefer that
With politics they’re council, politicians go to them for clarity and they’re present so that violence is quelled. Again your understanding of all things pre Disney is non existent

they are a monastic order that teaches a belief in a higher power (the force)
How are they not a religion?
They treat the force like the power of a god. they do not seal to control it. Its spiritual.
Yeah they just “council” politicians, defend the republic, lead armies of the republic against its foes.
But they are not involved in politics.

Sammy, I know you’re a spoiled mamas boy but in the real world you can’t redefine everything and make shite up just because your arguments are weak.

Again, what is the difference between the Jedi Order and a religion.
and what’s your basis for saying they aren’t?

Already explained that clearly. There’s zero overlap, you’re just making shite up in your head because of your own weird issues.

Well Tibetan Monks are a religious order. They’re buddhist idol.

are you saying jedi have no ideology?
Thats just completely wrong.
You make it sound like there mechanics.
They are a monastic order dedicated to a specific set of teaching regarding a higher power. they have a creed.
Posted on 7/20/24 at 5:42 pm to SammyTiger
I didn’t say they were Tibetan monks you moron. Try not wasting so much time making shite up that has to be corrected. Do you know what ideology means? There’s no ideology, their orders practices are solely based on how to access the force without manipulating it. Everything they do is functionally designed to do this. They don’t worship the force idiot

ed. Do you know what ideology means?
“system of ideas and ideals”
“a manner or the content of thinking characteristic of an individual, group, or culture”
I think that’s oxford and Merriam Webster.
what do you think it means?
what do you think constitutes a religion?
Is Buddhism a religion? they don’t worship buddha.

that’s just fricking false. They are not just practicing using the force. They have a clear code of ethics and morality. If they didn’t they wouldn’t care about manipulating the force.

Almost like you were:
So are you dumb or a liar?
Sol believes Mae was in danger.
But he was wrong. He learns he was wrong. And he feels guilty killing Aniseya because he found out Mae wasn’t actually in danger. As any normal person would.

What she is doing is what Jecki says in episode four, that it’s an honor to see anyone transform into the Force. I believe that Aniseya is transforming herself and Mae into the Force in a way that doesn’t kill them

You really can’t help yourself from being dishonest can you? Everything in your post is a false equivalence, false accusation or just flat out false. Like I said and you just confirmed all you do is invert and try to redefine reality because in actual reality you’re wrong.

No she’s wrong. Name another person who’s transformed into the force and lived.
Obi Wan
Anakin
Yoda
Luke
Qui-Gon
So when you say the show does no world breaking then you site the world breaking it just proves you’re a Disney simp which we all knew but you just confirmed again

the other witches do it.
so them.
how does this break the world?
Everyone you named became one with the force as they were about to die. They didn’t want to just teleport.

Yes it does and you continue to cite the content that’s the subject of the critiques thinking that’s a real position to take.
“Everyone you named became one with the force as they were about to die. They didn’t want to just teleport.”
^^^
This is False, Luke wasn’t about to die when he did it and he did teleport.
