I feel that the current image isn't that great for demonstration, especially when resized on the page. It's way too small to make out that there's supposed to be a Doctor Doom in the picture and the center figure too closely resembles Isaac from Dead Space with whom most people would be more familiar with than the Celestials pictured. Most comic fans probably know them by name, but have no idea what they look like.

With all this in mind, i'd like to start discussion of possibly changing the image for something else. I'm not sure what, hence this discussion.

It's curious, though I suppose appropriate given that religion is included among examples of various "tropes" on other pages, that the Mormon doctrine of eternal progression is included on this page. I've corrected, expanded, and separated the section on that subject in order to give a more accurate explanation of what Mormons actually believe.

Yes, but your paragraph seems like more a wall of text rant than an explanation. I'm not saying take it down, for this if it weren't there already, I'd add that Mormons indeed believe that, but maybe you could make it shorter, and even take out those dang citations. They make you look like a fundie, and there's no such thing as notability.

Why the are here such examples like Goa'uld?

Because he know I'm going to go out in this plane and I'm going to remove one of His creations from His universe. Hide / Show Replies

I would guess because although they aren't sufficiently advanced compared to Earth humans, they are sufficiently advanced to have convinced their subject races that they're gods.
