Challenging the Beliefs of Star Wars
Over the last two years, I have gotten the most dumbest, irrating, and nastiest comments from people who claimed to be Star Wars fans. Well, lets start there, the word "fan" is short for the word "fanatic", which apparently is what they are. Their thinking seems a little skewed in the process governed by their fanatical worship of a universe that defies even the most basic laws of science and physics, and whose evolution is at a pure technological stand still. This is unbelievable!
Two years ago I wrote an article why Stars Wars was pure fantasy (Harry Potter is more believable), while stories like Star Trek and Beyond Mars Crimson Fleet were based on real science , and therefore totally possible and real science fiction . And that's when the negative comments started along with the personal attacks on my book.
Yet, none of these commentators can understand that a parsec is a measurement of distance (distance traveled in 3.26 light years) and not time, or that a light saber is simply not possible because the containment field that would more than likely be magnetic (because a gravitational field to bend laser light of that magnitude would need the power of a small black hole, sucking not only light into it, but its owner as well) (1) comes in polarities and (2) would give off enough electromagnetic energy to turn anyone within thousands of miles of it into toast. And talking about polarity alone, the swords would either lock together (opposite polarities) and couldn't be pulled apart, or would repel each other (same polarities) so as to never make contact.
"Their sad devotion" to this stupid movie series just goes to show you that extremism comes in all flavors along with borderline insanity. How dare I challenge the mythical and ridiculess universe of these movie zealots with the truth about the real universe!
In a news article before Sir Alec Guinness died, similar fools were bowing and calling him a Master Jedi Knight. He was amazed. He commented that he was just an actor playing a part and was greatly offended they couldn't tell reality from fantasy. Makes one wonder where our future is really headed.
