I hope everyone will read this and share it. I posted the full piece. Hamza Howidy is a Palestinian from Gaza City. He is an accountant and a peace advocate. I follow Hamza on X and his tweets are very important. Unfortunately, he is being blocked. In his words, “But the protesters aren’t interested in peace. Some of the groups have been blocking Palestinian peace activists like me—and I am from Gaza, the very place they claim to care about! Instead of blocking peace activists, they should be inviting us to join these protests and guide them in the right direction—a place without hatred with a focus on calling for the release of the hostages who have been held captive by Hamas for more than 210 days.”

Well, in a perfect world, there would be no orphans or foster children to adopt because every child would have their own biological parents (who would be good to them), no one would have any children who didn't want them, and there would be measures in place to keep families from being separated. So whoever would want kids would have to have their own biological kids (or work out some arrangement to share non-biological kids with their biological parents, but I'd imagine that that would be difficult).
Plus, having eternal health (and everything else) would probably help with having the physical and mental health to conceive, carry, and raise these kids properly. Most of the answers on this thread just show that a lot of people don't really understand (and nobody fully understands) what it would be like to live in a perfect world.
Thanks for the question, Anon! I had to combine the “10” with the “more than 10” because I ran out of space! Hope it works.
For me I have a lot of health issues and can’t work because of it, and family issues as well, but if it was a perfect world, I would choose two kids. That way they have each other.

The idea that woman is not also the image of God comes from Greek philosophy, where they believed woman was somewhere between men and beasts.
Likely brought into the church by Tertullian, who blamed women for "deceiving the image of God". (Heads up- Adam wasn't deceived by Eve; if you read the story again you'll see that Adam was right there when the snake deceived Eve. He was fully aware of his actions.) In Tertullian's blame, he did not include women as part of the image of God.
On the contrary, Genesis claims that man (as in mankind), both male and female, was created in God's image.
This isn't impossible because nothing is impossible with God.
Woman is just as much created in God's image as man is.

“Can you define woman without excluding any woman?” Yes, I can, actually.
A woman is a person born with at least one X chromosome and with the absence of a Y chromosome.
It’s fairly simple. People with Turner’s syndrome (XO) are ALWAYS female, and people with Klinefelter’s syndrome (XXY) are ALWAYS male, because the presence of the Y chromosome makes them male. And this isn’t my opinion by the way, this is medical literature. We’re also talking about sex here, not gender. This includes any variation of chromosomes - for example, the extremely rare genetic disorder, XXXYY, people with this disorder are ALWAYS MALE, even though they have more than one (and two!) X chromosomes, because the presence of the Y chromosome makes you male.
I give any radfems and/or TERFs the right to use this explanation whenever some TRA trues to pull the “but what about (extremely rare genetic disorder) or (someone with no ovaries, a hysterectomy, etc). Because you don’t really need to define “woman” by external genitalia or even anatomy, because there’s one thing that all women have, no matter what. And it’s at least one X chromosome, and no Y chromosome.

Unpopular opinion: Anakin isn't as melodramatic or as much of a human disaster as fandom makes him out to be. Well, ok, he is a bit, but not in the way he's often portrayed. He can be reckless and a showoff (much of it is stemmed from insecurity and trauma, in any case) but he's pretty competent and doesn't need Obi-Wan to pick up after him constantly
strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree
Anakin is a 19 to 23 year old man under intense pressure, fighting a war, raising a teenager, and hiding a secret marriage. For the most part, he actually does it really well. He has a good success rate on battles plans and achieves his mission objectives 9 times out of ten. His men like him. His padawan likes him and actually learns a lot of useful skills over the course of their time together. He does fine without Obi-Wan coddling him or picking up after him or whatever. In fact, 8 times out of 10, it’s Anakin who has to rescue Obi-Wan from his mistakes.
The one area of his life where he really seems to fail is dealing with loss. Losing his Mom breaks something in him. Obi-Wan faking his death breaks something in him. The fear of losing Ahsoka leads him to do some stupid, dangerous, and occasionally a-moral things, but he still lets her go when she asks him to. The fear of losing Padme sends him off the deep end, but he’s not a perpetual disaster. He has one clear pressure point that he handles very, very badly, but is an otherwise competent and put together young adult.
Also, you can’t tell me a child who grew up repairing junk on a desert planet has fewer practical life skills than a guy who grew up in a cloistered temple where everything was handled by servant droids. You can’t tell me. I won’t believe it.

William Afton was a psychopath who took pleasure in murdering children and cared for no one but himself. He was indifferent and abusive towards his own children, eventually murdering them in cold blood. He had the chance to be a good father, but he wasted it terribly. His family could have never been a happy one without him being an entirely different character.
Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader was a lost soul who started out wanting to be a hero, but spent his whole life being abused and manipulated by people who had authority over him and wanted to control him. He was traumatized by a childhood in brutal slavery, and he had his morals skewed by a hyperstoic, utilitarian cult and a psychopathic despot who was grooming him for his own ends from an early age. He was eventually manipulated into service by that despot after a political struggle that left him no good choices and was forced into atrocities to protect his family when he saw no other way. This all culminated into emotional turmoil and psychological confusion, which led to him lashing out at his loved ones uncontrollably and being separated from them. His wife died mysteriously and his children were taken away to be groomed by his enemies to be pit against him, while he had his body damaged and his spirit broken by his family's apparent death, resigning himself to enslavement to the evil despot who had groomed him. He only hurt his daughter without knowing her identity and relation to himself, and when he found out that his son had survived, he took measures to try to protect him, only hurting him under extreme duress and eventually sacrificing himself to save his life. Anakin loved his family deeply and if external circumstances have allowed him, he could have been a great husband and father and his family could have been very happy together.

Yeah, and then rumor has it that JJ Abrams tried to get back to that original plan, but the executives hijacked the project from him and reshot almost everything. More wasted potential.
it's so frustrating to be someone who was really hardcore reysky in 2015-2017. on one hand, i love that rey is a skywalker and continues anakin's legacy even though they aren't biologically related. i genuinely think that's awesome and rey IS a skywalker. on the other hand, when i rewatch tfa i think it's blantanly clear that rey is meant to be luke's biological daughter and that when they changed directors between the first and second movie they changed the entire plan and i find that really fucking frustrating.

Either this is a crudely composed joke or you need to get your head out of the slash gutter and look up real Disney canon and Legends material (Mara Jade, Nakari Kelen, etc).

He ogles her when he's alone with her or with droids, even when it's not the right time. And then in both Legends and in Disney canon, he goes on to develop romantic interests in other women and even marry and have a son with one (who started out trying to kill him), while showing no romantic interest in men, and you call it comphet? The only compulsory thing I see is projecting homosexuality on him with no canonical proof other than their stereotypes and bias.

I'm sorry, but did you see the way he looked at Leia before he knew she was his sister? Did you see how he reacted when she kissed him?

Does this look like a guy who's not interested in women to you? He's obviously interested in brunettes like his father before him.

I assure everyone that I would never give JJ Abrams of all people credit he doesn't deserve. But the man has given multiple interviews over the course of the last nine years about the narrative trajectory he originally envisioned when he, Michael Arndt, and Lawrence Kasden created The Force Awakens. I'd have to be both flat-out stupid and ignoring basic tenets of media literacy to pretend he didn't set up clear and obvious character arcs for the new cast of characters in TFA that Rian Johnson then deliberately chose to ignore

Thanks for thinking of me for this, @nerdychristianfanboy!
Man, with these parallels and all that setup with the timing and the age difference between them, they really should have gotten together and been Rey's parents. Of course, considering that the official Disney canon has been questionable at best since TLJ, which leaves room for a reboot, I still haven't given up on this concept.
