Why Star Trek is Better Than Star Wars

Star Trek is one of the best sci-fi and was created by a positive thinker who was known as Gene Roddenberry, convsersly, Star Wars is one of the worst and was created by good vs evil dichotomy supporter Gearge Lucas.

1) Star Trek focuses on more real life issues than Star Wars such as overcoming prejudice and saving endangered species etc. Star Wars is more about having fun than commenting on serious reality issues.

2) A Star Wars Fanatic named Eric Amonson says that Star Wars was factual and using quotes from Lucas, far away galaxy and a long ago time period to show it as "air-tight logic" if this is no joke, which I think that is the case, then Eric is a liar! I know too that Star Trek is pretend, so that is not a lie.

3) Star Trek has vastly more gray areas than Star Wars does, which Star Wars only promotes the good and evil dichotomy that has throughout history only caused problems like factions and even war.  Therefore, Star Trek is more appropiate for a world of gray areas, even Lion King has more gray than Star Wars, like the Hyenas and the outsider lionesses in Lion King 2, which ONLY has ONE gray character, Darth Vader, only because he was Luke Skywalker's DAD!

4) Star Trek is far more open-mindded about the unkown in misunderstood creatures, where Kirk refused to kill the Gron after winning the fight (Arena (TOS)) and Star Wars briefly gave Colo Claw Fish a BAD NAME (The Phantom Menace). Star Trek would have been a lot more careful in viewing Colo Claw Fish because like giant squid of reality, we would know very little about them for the same habitat-related reasons.

5) Naboo's planet-core is very obscene, for it is not either molten or totally solid like realistic terrestrial planet cores should be. Despite a few mistakes in Star Trek like hte Enterprise design, they never ever had a planet with a interior like Naboo's, a caro with sea monsters lurking in it.  If Colo Caw Fish are real, which they might be on our own Milky Way, they would live somewhere like the ocean floor of their home planeet, which in turn would have a molten core like Earth does, generating a magnetoshpere to protect its atmosphere from the stellar winds of its parent sun.  If Naboo were real, it would lose its habitabiliy and end up as barran as the MOON!

6) Star Trek offers us hope for the future in a positive manner and rebels against more real-life issues than Star Wars does. The TOS crew in thier film all have uniforms with mini-skirts on them, symbols of women's liberation.  Star Wars mainly rebels against a fictitious "evil empire" and carries the tradition that is convential thinking which things like Star Trek rebel against.

7) Although Star Trek has pretty often dealt with fighting, it is more for alternatives to fighting that Star Wars is, and it promotes getting along, for the Klingon Empire was not seen as bad as the Galactic Empire in Star Wars. Kirk got over his hate for Klingons that was spawned by his son's death in The Search For Spock in The Undiscovered Country.  The ONLY villian in Star Wars Luke Skywalker was willing to redeem was his FATHER!

8) You do NOT need the so-called "Force" to do what is right, for we can all get along when we put our differences aside and do not fight over one faith being "right" and all others being "wrong". We create God in our own images according to interpretations and belief systems.

9) Gene Roddenberry wanted his story to be as believable as possible, only letting few unrealistic things slip like Matt Jefferies mistake in designing the Enterprise. Star Wars on the other hand, is extremely unrealistic.

10) Star Trek is far mmore balanced than Star Wars, varying its story plot while Star Wars always carries the same plot. And it is by far that Star Trek has much better morals than Star Wars does.

11) Star Trek inspired a lot more scientists and engineers than Star Wars did, some say that most Star Wars fans work in retail, but I am not certain of it.

12) Star Wars fans sometimes waste weeks or months of thier school or work to camp out by a theater just ot be the first to see a Star Wars flick. On the other hand, Star Trek fans camp out no longer than hours to be the first to receive a Star Trek item or attend a Star Trek-related event.

13) In Star Trek, money has no meaning, and Star Wars is a lot about making money rather than the possible positive future that Star Trek envisions.

14) Some Starwoids who are uninformed, not lying, claim that the Death Star is more powerful than any enemy Star Trek ship, but they have not watched episodes of Star Trek that depict spacecraft that DO blow up planets, such as The Doomsday Machine (TOS) and a Voyager episodes where Species 8472 bioships blow up planets. In Nemesis, Shinzon has a planet-destroying spacecraft with full Death Star like powers called the Scimitar.

15) Star Trek was written as a blueprint for the future of humanity where we would "Boldly go where no man has gone before". In Star Wars, it is just fun and excitment without any realistic meaning of our future as a species.

16) Kirk's show inspired people ot be scientists, astronauts, aerospace engineers and other people of greatness. Star Wars of course, inspired people to shut thier brains off and just escape from reaity or realistic thought.  A Starship built by the middle part of this century is far more realistic than several aspects of Star Wars.  I plan to eventually have an international starship bound for either Alpha Centauri or Epsilon Eridani dubbed "Orion II" developed and completed by then.

17) If Star Wars is a drink, it would be salty dish water, whereas Star Trek would be lemonade.

18) If Star Wars were a resturant, it would be a fast food place, and Star Trek would be Panda Express because it is yummy and healthier!

19) If Star Wars were a character on a cereal box, it would be that teenage boy from the Pops commercial and depicted on the box, for it is like just having fun. Star Trek on the other hand would be Tony the Tiger because it is Grrreat!

20) Kirk and Company saved the whales from extinction via tiime warp with the slingshot method in a captured Klingon Bird-of-Prey (The Voyage Home). Would any Star Wars heros even give a care for endangered wildlife, NO, for they can sometimes be against animals they know little about.  The Persecution of wolves is where animal stereotype and hunting endangered species collide!  Star Wars would have encouraged the wolves' extinction as a species while Star Trek would save them.

21) Some Starwoids give Star Trek as bad a name as we have given to some misunderstood animals saying that the Federation is bad, and only the Rebel Alliance is good, the Federation would NEVER EVER put up with the Empire's ways! The Federation is very wonderful in thier ideals they hold dear.  That is SLANDER on their part to give Star Trek such a hidious name that it is obvious that it does NOT deserve.

22) In the San Diego Air & Space Museum in 2008, there was Star Trek, the Exhibition on display there for several months, this is very appropiate for what Star Trek inspires. Star Wars got to be displayed from 1999-2000 at the San Diego Art Museum, for it was just schlock in comparison.

23) If Star Wars were a cartoon video game character, it would be Spyro the Dragon, because dragons are like an animal equivalent to Star Wars as a provenn fantasy that it unrealistic. Star Trek would be Mario, for it is super good.

24) If Star Wars were a Lion King-related feeling, it would be Anti-Timon & Pumbaa Fanaticism (ATPF), for it is way like the so-called boys' toys gender-role atitude. Star Trek on the other hand would be the Protection of Timon because it is pro-unity and loaded with gray areas!

25) When Vulcans say "Live Long and Prosper", they wish you very well. When Jedi say "May the Force Be With You", they are saying like God is on our side and against all else, and it can cause serious wrong choices in REALITY when people say God is on their side, as an excuse for thier big wrong choices.

26) Star Trek has indroduced an advancxed diversity concept in the 1960s, and unfortunately, we are going backwards thanks to crap like Star Wars, which may have diversity in looks, but is backwards in promoting good and evil dichotomy instead of mostly gray areas.

27) Star Wars is often like a bully and is said ot be better because it is more fighting rather than refusing to fight when possible. Star Trek would break the male-gender role stereotype while Star Wars would enforce it.

28) Star Trek is to Carl Sagan as Star Wars is to Jerry Falwell.

29) Star Trek = Smell of Flowers. Star Wars = Smell of Poop.

30) Star Trek = Deodorant. Star Wars = Underarm odor!

31) Kirk is sex and Jedi are SEXLESS!

32) Regarding celibacy motives, Navigator Illia was sworn to celebacy because Roddenberry wanted a family audience and new that was required to do so (The Motion Picture). Gene Roddenberry objected to the source of sexual repression, which was blind faith.  However, Star Wars makes it taboo for Jedi to have girlfriends (Attack of the Clones) and promotes it and its source, not merely for family audience!

33) In Las Vegas, there is a place at the Hilton there called "Star Trek: The Experience" which is far more exciting than a Star Was Museum in Washington and the Star Tours Star Wars simulator ride at Disneyland!

34) Star Trek is to the Beatles as Star Wars is to a typical 1990s rock band.

35) Star Trek = quality. Star Wars = popular fun.

36) Star Trek would be the gold metalist while Star Wars would be the cheater!

37) We were created by exploding suns billions of years ago and evolved over millions of years from simpler life. Star Wars says that the made up "Force", not sex or star stuff or organic matter made us.  It is now an undisputed scientific fact that organic matter is abundant in space and peppering galaxies, and it was manufactured in stars, we evolved from such matter and that is how life develops, not with this made-up force that is said to be in every living thing.
