  • Captain Janeway seems to have died. As she wanders around the ship in ghost form, she encounters someone who appears to be her father from the afterlife. He tries to convince her to come along with him, but Janeway feels she's not quite ready yet.

      It was a stupid thing for the alien to say, all he did was give Janeway even MORE incentive NOT to go with him. He was undoubtedly angry and said it without thinking how Janeway would react to it. Even if the alien was confined to one planet, the alien was STILL being stupid as Janeway would warn other races to stay away from the planet plus making idle threats makes him look ridiculous.

      They add nothing of worth to current day society and quite frankly I feel that religion, like smoking, alcohol and driving should only be for people over the age of 18. Indoctrinating children with faerie tales and lies is tantamount child abuse and it should be illegal.

      +Richard Down Janeway is the best captain imo look at her predicament she stranded 75 years from home with only small crew and ship she has to get them home in a unknown region of space where there are lots of unfriendly aliens try to destroy Voyager. in the first episode she refuses to sacrifice the lives of an entire alien species just so they can get home quickly I applaud her for that(I know a lot of people think that was a stupid decision) but sacrificing the Ocompa so they can get home quickly would have been very selfish imo. she isn't perfect(I always felt they tried to hard to make Picard seem perfect) She cares greatly for crew and would die to protect them if needed

      @ LIBERALGUNSMOKER and @ryan macdonald thats not why they find it scary. They find it horrifying because if you were in this same situation, where an unknown entity is trying to deceive you after what you thought was your death, disguised as the people you cherished most in this life and using them as bait, do you think you would be able to tell the if it was real or not? Honestly the alien in this scene did a pretty bad job and trying to force her to choose. Most people who dont study their own dreams would not be able to tell they are being tricked. Because riddle me this, im willing to bet nearly every single time you dream at night which is every single night youve ever been alive even if you dont remember them, during the dream, you think its real, dont you? You interact with the characters in your dream as if they are real, right? You think everything you experience in the dream is real until you wake up right? Unless your are a very seasoned lucid dreamer with 10+ years of practice i doubt you would react the same way Janeway did. Because guess what? You dont get to wake up when you die lol. So how would you ever know you are being tricked in the the first place??? This is why its absolutely horrifying.

    This scene is truly one of the most disturbing in all of Star Trek. The fact that Janeway was this close to be essentially dragged to hell, which is truly a horrifying prospect in itself; and the aliens final remark only solidifies his character as a demonic entity.
    Supposedly, some people who claim to have been to Hell have described new arrivals being greeted by demons disguised as loved ones before tormenting them. Perhaps this was based on those testimonies.
    Honestly, few other scenes in science fiction give me so much chills as this one.

If you asked your loved one a secret question, they will give the right answer. They have also refined the light and the fake love ones to emit a love feeling to us. We are drawn toward this. They can fake it enough to fool us.
      This is actually the "heaven" we have been sold. People think the light is the entrance to heaven. They end up going through the life review which is a trick to make you think you have to incarnate again. If you do not want to incarnate again you are subjected to constant persuading, if you still refused to live again on earth, they just mind wipe you against your will.

      She flipped off what is known as an archon. These beings use us to feed off our lower vibration emotions. It is trying to get her to reincarnate, so like the matrix, it will use her like a battery. Like she cleverly surmised, she has to volunteer to go with it, however this is not really volunteering, as the whole experience is deceptive. If we knew what we were really getting into we would refuse immediately.

    Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed in form.
    The energy that makes up a persons consciousness is no exception.
    Janeway's inner strength and courage would have been a huge bounty for a being able to consume that sort of energy.
    I liked how she pieced it together, how she was able to reason her way through the encounter without getting angry.
    Passionate reasoning!

      No no; while it is absolutely true that we are made up of energy this does not mean that anything of a persons mind would be left after they are dead if only because our conscious mind is as every part of us physically based: so in other words even though the energy that makes us up will continue after we are dead does not mean that we will have anything to do with it; if only because if and when we die our organic machinery stops functioning and we cease to be; and there is, nothing.

      While I do not agree with the second line of your statement I do applaud you for your appreciation of Janeway, and you are of course entitled to your own thoughts on the matter. Personally I think of the brain as a computer, one day it will stop running, or turn off, and that's all she wrote.

Like this character, God bribes people with the notion of heaven; while threatening them with the date of hell; all the while trying to convince us choosing to believe its an act of free will. What is being asked is for people to give up their ability for logic and reason.

      @Maverick.3.16 Před 6 lety +12

      Ok Sooo..... bear with me here, but this can potentially be reality shattering. Fair warning if you prefer the blue pill.
      What if..... this happens to humans all the time? The tunnel of light, the deceased family members, telling you to follow the light, transition to the "next realm". Everyone seems to always go so willingly, because of our irrational attachments. But instead of going into a different soul harvesting matrix, what if they just sent you back to this one? Here on Earth? Isn't this place basically hell on earth? Inescapable suffering? Catch 22s at every turn, in this rigged system they call life? Calamity forever alternates with Prosperity, yes? Karma is even a rigged system. Good deeds don't generate good future happenings, but rather just set you up for the inevitable lows/bad? If people did good deeds just to generate good happenings in their life, are they actually good people..? Are people who conduct themselves in a decent way with the main driving factor being a heavenly reward later on actually good people..?
      Science says soon Virtual Reality will be nearly indistinguishable from the our own. To quote The Matrix..."What is 'real'? How do you define 'real'? If youre talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, taste, see well then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain". Is it really outside the realm of possibility that we are already in a soul harvesting matrix? It would make sense to have many billions of other people in the simulation, so that people would be none the wiser that their experience isn't 'real'? I mean how easy would it be for "them" to pretend to be God/The Creator/etc. and just swindle your soul after death basically? Not to mention, if you didn't have the luxury of a undamaged body to go back to, like Janeway, you would be very much at "their" mercy (or lack there of). Apparently this is what buddhists have secretly know for a long time, hidden plain view. There is already a lot of evidence out there supporting the theory of reincarnation. For those who would say that this is all simply nonsense and based on my 'beliefs', well i would say that i hold all beliefs very loosely, and that belief in the truth is not required of it to actually be true. There is a considerable amount of evidence that our lives here on earth are NOT ultimately reality/the only reality/ the only 'life' we've got to live. For those wanting specific references to evidence supporting these theories, i can provide.
      Ohh one last thing. Science says Atoms aka the unit of matter that makes up everything 'solid' in our universe is made of 99.9999% empty space... Ponder that for a second. What do you thing that actually means? Einstein's theories on relativity, which are accepted by most scientists, basically say time is a illusionary construct, meaning reality is ultimately TIMELESS... So if the two most important things that make up our reality, Time and Space, aren't actually 'real' according to science, what kind of implications can we draw from this?
      Edit: I just realized... Wanna know what makes this even scarier? Im certain 99% of people would fall for this trick. How do I know? Because 99% of people are incapable of distinguishing their own dreams from reality, until they wake up... right? Almost everyone who isnt a seasoned veteran in Lucid Dreaming interacts with their dream characters as if they are real... right? But you dont get to wake up when you die, now do you...?

    Just want to say that (tied with Picard) Janeway is my favourite. No other captain could have done what she did. Taking an Intrepid-class tub across an ocean of unexplored space... No back-up, no allies, no cosy starbase pitstops... just light-years of terror wrapped in darkness & silence. The Borg, 8472, Temporal wars, alien torturers, plagues, anomalies, soul stealing entities... Janeway beat back everything and scorched her way across the Delta quadrant. If she couldn't trade or parlay, she would blast anything that stood in her way. And she really really cared about her crew. They were her family. Every death broke her heart. She even spent time with lowliest crewmen just to get to know them. She was truly the best. Mulgrew did a great job.

    Ah yes, when you die you see a tunnel, the light at the end, you go toward it and see your loved ones, you willingly walk into the light because it feels like love. Yet what happens is you get there, find out you have to prepare for another life here on earth and that is how this matrix works, how they feed off of us. We keep incarnating, taking over a body that was not prepared for us, so we end up possessing a human body that already had a soul, just so these creeps can keep eating our energy.
    Too bad there are so many people that do not realize this is true.

      One thing people need to know, they have refined this deceased love one trick. Now we are all watched constantly ever second. If you asked your loved one a secret question, they will give the right answer. They have also refined the light and the fake love ones to emit a love feeling to us. We are drawn toward this. They can fake it enough to fool us.
      This is actually the "heaven" we have been sold. People think the light is the entrance to heaven. They end up going through the life review which is a trick to make you think you have to incarnate again. If you do not want to incarnate again you are subjected to constant persuading, if you still refused to live again on earth, they just mind wipe you against your will.

That the soul that believes this body is created for them, they can sometimes enter the womb and bond with the baby, otherwise they can become the "imaginary playmate" and create a bond that way. All this is done so that they can get permission to enter the body. If the body was really theirs.. why would they need permission?
