Dreamsmp Biblical Parallels (pt 1?)
Sup nerds! I say, writing a ten page essay as to the biblical parallels of a minecraft server. Basically I kept making ‘Tommyinnit is Jesus jokes’ until I inevitably actually started thinking hard about it and realised how many parallels to the Bible the Dreamsmp has. So, of course: ten page essay. Hey, I didn’t get top of my year level in Religious Education and go to Catholic school all my life to NOT know things about the Bible.
Note: These are parallels between the stories! Certain characters are nothng like the Biblical figures they’re parallel with, but their story and characters are. I’ve modified certain situations to fit more, and some parallels are a lot more accurate than others! This is all for fun. This is me relating the Bible to Minecraft for gods sake!
Thanks to @nitpick7 and @alipadi for helping me with research, telling me if a joke is funny and for reading this. This is quite old because I kept forgetting to post it lol. Theres a lot more but I haven’t written it yet, hence the ‘part 1?’ because I don’t know when I’ll be continuing this
Tommyinnit and Jesus Christ
Tommyinnit is the son of God himself, Jesus Christ. He died, then three days later rose again in Pandora’s Vault (the equivalent to Jesus’ tomb). He was resurrected by God (Dream, sorta, you’ll see how I contradict myself in the next couple of sentences). During Lent, Jesus spent 40 days alone in the desert with only the Devil and his temptations for company. Tommy, during his exile, spent like a week alone in the wilderness with only Dream (who is also Satan, this is where I contradict myself) and his manipulation for company.
Tommy was willing to sacrifice himself for the good of the people he loves, Jesus literally did just that for all of us. Jesus was hated and inevitably killed for what he stood for, and Tommy is hated and has died, and probably will continue to die for what he stands for (A large percentage of the Pharisees found Jesus ANNOYING. So if you didn’t, please consider getting baptised). When Jesus died, he went to Hell and presumably fist fought Satan. When Tommy died, he went to his Hell, didn’t fist fight Satan, but was confronted with Alivebur and his competitive solitare, which might as well be the same thing /j.
And as a funnier, more weird parallel, if we’re assuming Tommy’s mother is the Samsung Refrigerator, then we can draw parallels to The Virgin Mary. Samsung Refrigerators, unsurprisingly, can’t have kids, a similar thing with Mary’s whole ‘ever virgin’ thing. Basically I’m saying the fridge went through the Immaculate Conception.
Tubbo Underscore and Simon Peter
Simon Peter was Jesus’ best friend and right hand, and Tubbo is what Simon Peter was to Jesus to Tommy. To start, Peter was Jesus’ most trusted disciple, like Tubbo is Tommy’s best friend. Since the beginning of his following Peter was there for Jesus, and the same goes with Tubbo to Tommy.
Peter is ‘the cornerstone’ or ‘the foundation’ of the Church and established it as it is today. Tubbo was seen as the ‘heart of L’manburg’ and his presidency was arguably the most useful, productive and peaceful rule (The Church as far as I know hasn’t been blown up three times though). When Tommy and Wilbur (who I’ll get to in a bit) both turned down the presidency, Wilbur handed it off to Tubbo, like Jesus gave Peter the responsibility of leading the Church without Jesus.
Peter denied Jesus three times like Jesus said he would, and Tommy knew that Tubbo didn’t really trust him during Exile. Instead of denying Tommy, Tubbo doubts Tommy. The first is right before Exile when he makes the choice to exile Tommy because he doubts Tommy can change, the second is Tubbo believing Tommy’s dead and doubting he’s alive, and the third is Tommy’s actual death and doubting that he’s dead.
In the iconic story of ‘Jesus walks on water’, Peter plays a prominent role. That moment on the water, instead of it being that Peter becomes afraid while walking towards Jesus, it’s that Tubbo gives up trying to fight Tommy. In the blown up community house, the day before Doomsday, Tommy and Tubbo have their iconic fight with the line ‘The discs were worth more than you ever were!’.
This is our metaphorical ‘walking on water moment’, but instead of Peter walking to Jesus, its Tubbo and Tommy being torn further apart. When the iconic disc line is said by Tommy, that’s our version of Peter’s fear on the water. Tubbo suddenly realises what’s happening and stops fighting entirely, ready to let himself drown. But, like Jesus came to grab Peter out of the water, Tommy stands by Tubbo.
Wilbur Soot/Ghostbur and The Holy Spirit
I’m aware how strange this one is. But hear me out, because I’m also aware that I’m really smart (/j). The Holy Spirit is what gives the Disciples hope, courage, the fire in them to go out and do stuff. Wilbur had and has a similar effect, but in a weird way. Let’s break this down.
L’manburg Wilbur gave the people of L’manburg the hope and the courage to emancipate themselves from the Dreamsmp. He gave Tommy the courage to duel Dream for what he stood for. He gave Tubbo a purpose. He gave Fundy a home. And he gave Eret, though they didn’t end up keeping it, something to fight for. During The L'manburg era, Wilbur was their courage, their hope, their energy for what they did. He was their Holy Spirit.
After Jesus’ ascension, the disciples wait for the Holy Spirit. During Elections, Wilbur’s character based around giving people courage dies and spirals into something dark and cold. This is the 40 days leading up to Pentecost. There is no courage, no hope, no anything, just fear and desperation. When Wilbur dies on November 16th, all courage and hope dies with him. Wilbur takes his apostles’ faith down with him.
Then there’s our metaphorical Pentecost: the rebuilding of New L’manburg and Ghostbur’s appearance. Wilbur returns as something resembling original L’manburg Wilbur, but not actually that courage and bravery. He returns as Ghostbur, who resembles Wilbur but not in the same ways. This is like how at Pentecost, the Apostles are gifted with the Holy Spirit, but no Jesus. They’re still on their own, but they have the bravery to move on and go out to spread the word and rebuild the Church. In the Dreamsmp, Ghostbur’s return helps spark the rebuilding of New L’manburg.
Ghostbur gives what Wilbur did give and couldn’t give throughout his life. He’s Tommy’s comfort during his exile. He’s Tubbo’s guidance during his presidency. He’s Fundy’s closure. He’s Techno and Phil’s reminder. Ghostbur is a different kind of bravery and purpose than Wilbur was, but it’s still the Holy Spirit within each of them nonetheless. And even without physical presence, he’s still there (Wilbur Soot my beloved I miss your streams king).
i get muslims cause if a dude showed up and started spreading the word of god id be like "ok, sure, another prophet", but then if he said "i am his son" then id be atleast a little weirded out too

Its meme time
Alright grammarly this is the final straw. Do you even know what context is? Or how different words have different connotations to them? You're correcting a language that uses nothing but subtext and connotation and tone and you can't even figure it out?
This one is for grammarly.
I see you.
I see you after all you've done to me.
You come in, sweep me off my feet, correct my comma usage and wrap me around your little finger making me dependent on you.
You taunt me with your premium features, making me wish I had just a little more money to fully commit to you and you never go on any good sale.
Then you drop me into a filthy hole with the rest of the garbage by incorporating ai that can't tell the difference between its and it's and leave me to rot.
So I move on, I find something better than you could ever be. Just for you to flash a 50% off sale in my face like we were nothing. Like I never meant a goddamn thing to you.
Now you want me back?!?!
After all this, this how you want to wine and dine me back into your arms?
Well, I won't play your game. I've grieved our parting already and now I feel nothing but utter indifference toward you.
