.... and to some Christians it would be a foursome gang bang

... don't worry I was already going to hell anyway so no need to warn me about how sacrilegious this is

Look up Asura-Mazda. That's probably the "god" that formed the basis for YHWH.

Zoroastrianism ... one could spend a lifetime just reading about the history of all religions ... it's so much history and endlessly fascinating to me and how it's all affected and influenced our current world.

I was raised a Roman Catholic but I don't think I was ever religious because I always questioned everything about it ... I'm also Indigenous Canadian so I have my own spirituality which is more of just my own personal views of the world we live in ... now I just enjoy reading about all the long documented history of religions .

I also am very interested in Zoroastrianism. There's something about it, even as an atheist, that I find very appealing.

In our household we watch this episode every Christmas as a Christmas tradition, and it gets better every year. And by better, I mean way, way worse in every way. It's SO good

So it fucks up generations of your family too?

[–] kat_angstrom@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago

Oh, kids aren't allowed to watch it, only adults with certain... Predilections

The single line "I fell asleep reading a particularly erotic chapter in my grandmother's journal" is worthy of it honestly. I don't think any other sequence of 12 words can evoke anything close to the emotional rollercoaster I felt when that sentence was spoken.

I always feel the need to remind people that, at a certain point in this episode, she tells fucking shit psychologist that grandma's diary made her horny.

And the ships psychologists reaction to this is telling her to read even more and see if it makes her hornier.

edit-that was supposed to be ships psychologist bit im leaving it as it is

As you should

[–] Yamainwitch@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I love how irl no one ever talks to me about the emotional impact of this episode but here, you guys GET it. What in the ever loving FUCK were these writers thinking? Like, WHAT? It lives rent free in my mind forever.

They can't just make an episode about ghost sex and expect us not to meme about it until the end of time.

[–] Yamainwitch@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Absolutely! The laughs and the jokes almost make the trauma worth it hahah

[–] Farvana@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Beverly was always a self insert (like most trek characters) for professional STEM types, in this case the career doctor who loves romance novels.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I know I posted this meme before, but I can't help myself...

[–] Yamainwitch@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

It slaps (those cheeks lol) every time

[–] charonn0@startrek.website 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So that's what caused WW3.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

No, this is what caused the Eugenics Wars. The race to create the perfect sexy ghost candle. But they couldn't figure out how to do that genetically, so they made Khan instead.

Wouldn't the ghost have boned her?

But ghosts don't have bones.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

It was a mutual boning.

[–] verity_kindle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Beverly aggressed on that ghost, she boned it.

OK now the un is Satan

[–] muad_dibber@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Current timeline plot twist: the fact that this episode was written, is what's keeping the Vulcans from admitting us right now.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 1 year ago

Not the lack of warp technology?

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago

Scots ghost called “Ronin” moment.

Highly logical
