>Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerer's ways, Lord Vader. Your sad devotion to that ancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you enough clairvoyance to find the rebels' hidden fortress.
>Sure I was in my early twenties during the Clone Wars and considering my rank most likely fought in them and can personally remember when thousands of Jedi were using their devotion to that ancient religion to mega flip and magically conjure up shit all over the galaxy as intergalactic sorcerer cops. Hell, I even remember when the Jedi were an officially recognized political organization whose headquarter was located in a gigantic government building on the capital planet across the street from the Intergalactic Senate where the Jedi were called upon by the Senate frequently to use their mystical sorceress powers to lend aid in conflicts and political issues but that won't stop me from being dismissive of the existence of supernatural powers!

People call Christianity and Judaism cavemen religions even though they're very much still active. But I think you're just memeing anyways.
a lot of /tv/faggots are clearly re-watching the old trilogy lately based on all these meemsI'm one of them
>>63476568
Was this guy just super insolent or was Vader in really pathetic standing with those officers, until he murders one of them?
>>63476568
If the pope claims he can heal the sick would you believe him? Yet we all saw previous popes do it.
People are just skeptical of religion

I don't care about Star Wars at all. I have no desire to see the new one.
Is this bad?
>>63477250
quite the opposite

It is a good decision.

Popes never healed the wounded. God never healed anybody, so called miracles are just scientific events we don't understand yet.
Religion is for the ignorant and deluded.

Science is the study of natural law, my friend. Where does that law, set in stone as it is, come from?

>>63476979
Your analogy is shit.
This is like if people refused the validity of Christ if 15 years ago (the year 2000) there were 10,000 Christs walking around turning water into wine and performing miracles on full display in major metropolitan centers all over the world before returning to Christ Headquarters in Washington DC across the street from the White House where they would meet with Bush frequently and perform miracles to deal with conflicts in the Middle East.

No I didn't.

Poeple had no idea Star Wars would have sequels then.
It was just garbage entertainment for the masses.

Don't argue with them. Nobody on 4chan is religious. Literally everyone who claims to be is a troll.

Not the christian god for sure.

>>63477577
There is no proof he existed aside from religious books, which are known to have been manipulated by the church to have power on the small folk in the past 1700 years.
>>63476568
Clones, droids and jedi fought in the Clone Wars. Not random dudes. At best they were planetary militia and never saw a jedi in battle. And it's no secret the jedi existed but few believe in their magic powers because very very few regular people saw them firsthand.
There's a lot of inconsistencies because of the PT, but this is still passable.

This all comes together to a good point: The Imperial Officers, in their callousness and desire for control, are willfully blind to evidence of the power that binds the universe. It is in their character, being rank and file pawns of the Emperor who uses the dark side of The Force for deception and control, to deny both that there is a positive natural Force that they are suppressing, and also a dark element of The Force that is oppressing them.
Aka The Holy Spirit triggers bad guys
>>63477849
What this guy said. Han also didn't believe in the Force despite being alive during the republic.
>>63477837
>There is no proof he existed aside from religious books
My little anon can't be this retarded.
>A New Hope
Officers diss Vader all the time. Tarkin puts Vader in his place.
>Empire Strikes Back
They're all afraid of him and he can kill and promote them at will.
Just what is Vader's position or rank in the empire anyways?
>>63477946
Big guy
>>63477946
In A New Hope Vader was probably viewed as a glorified messenger for the emperor and nobody really felt like they had to take shit from him. After the Death Star blew up Vader likely received more freedom to fuck around with the troops in order to get their shit together.
>>63477837
>surely not the Christian God
Might want to check your definitions homie, methinks you are assuming a lot more about God than what it is said, and you are free of course to forsake scripture or anything else to seek the truth if the words blind you. If you can admit there is a natural law, I suggest you focus solely on that. If you are saying Science defeats notions of God because it observes and records natural law, then I would remind you that a collection of written laws on the nature of the universe is called a Bible.
I don't think you've done your meditation or your reading. Don't forsake the past, it has brought us here, where we are. There is something going on here and it's your mission to figure out what.
>>63477725
Neither of those seem to be known to the common public. For all intents and purposes, Vader was just an Emperor's lapdog, just like Motti was for Tarkin.
>>63477997
UUUU
>>63477946
in the first only tarkin reprimanded darth. All the other officials feared him, except for the guy who got force choked. He is seens as being on par with Tarkin as they always talk to each other as equals.
>In A New Hope Vader was probably viewed as a glorified messenger for the emperor and nobody really felt like they had to take shit from him.
most likely not. He is commanding almost everyone in the first, that officer was an accident and he got assaulted by vader with no repercussions.
>>63477725
That only makes it funnier.

>scientific events
Do you mean natural events? A scientific event is like publishing a paper or recording some data. "Scientific" isn't a synonym for "real".
>I find your lack of faith disturbing.
This line is so iconic, but it always bothered me. Even "annoying" would've been better, but overall it's very autistic wording.
>>63476568
He was an awesome character. I think it's amazing how all the Imperial officers look so similar but you can pick them out so well. They had character and were 3-D. But look at Gunray or any of the separatists from the prequels: they all are unique aliens but you can't tell them apart.
>Imperial officer is patrician tier
>>63477005
I don't know. I haven't seen it over since September. We just know the movies way too well.
>>63477016
It's a hard thing to answer. Darth Vader ISN'T the top man, as we seemed to think he was as children. He's high on the ladder but he takes orders and is basically an agent of the Emperor. He isn't the head of the Death Star. Tarkin probably is, so Vader is just to help out.
>>63479085
Only to you I think. Annoying would be worse, but maybe you are right a better word would be better. I just can't imagine what it would be. The line would need to be rewritten.

Take a film class, kiddo.
he was meming
Remember that time Liam Neeson figured out how to become a force ghost after he had died and then taught Yoda who taught Obi-wan, who in turn didn't teach it to Anakin so he must have figured it out himself?
He was a good friend
