i cant see anything in that 2nd pic, i cant even see lord vader.
anyone think starwars kinda had a bible theme going on? there was this thing called the force, its everywhere, but in order to use it you have to believe (faith), han solo wasnt a believer, big city guy, Luke (bible name) simple humble country boy, he was a believer, vader is Lord vader, kinda like a bad Jesus, fear is the path to the dark side, wasnt there a planet called endor and then you had the witch of endor, yoda is methuselah, etc etc.

Well the force use to be cool and could have had a theme like that, than George Lucas rather than leave it vague and similar to faith or a universal energy, decided to say it was essentially organisms living in the bloodstream.
It can't be something you can desire to have or develop with a sharpened or calmed mind, you are born with it.
Ghosts are generally souls or emotions trapped here from trauma in folklore and fiction. Was that graveyard the site of a battle or something they decided to make a graveyard to avoid having to move the bodies far?

The problem with these sorts of situations is the brain. And not in a bad way, for the brain.
Our brain scans images looking for familiar, recognizable shapes. Since a human form is extremely common it is an easy one to recognize. So when our brain wants to make sense out of something that makes no sense it works harder to find familiar shapes. Finding a shape resembling a body means our mind translates it into looking like a body, because our minds can process that.
Adding in an element of "creepy" pushes the brain harder to do this because it wants to explain what cannot be explained. Such as finding images that resemble human forms when you feel you're being watched. Your brain is in overdrive seeking this visual.
This is the same concept as the "face" on Mars. Once a picture was taken from a different angle and time of day of the same spot there was zero indication of a face. It was merely shadow, angle and our mind making nothing into something.
Same thing happens when people see angels, demons, faces, etc... in cloud shapes.
Biblically I can find no basis for the idea of a ghost.
Besides, if there was something in that pic it looks like a human using Predator cloaking and holding his crotch. A rather odd combo that makes me laugh more than get creeped out.

I can see the apparition on the left, but not sure about the one on the right. I reckon I have to see a picture of the original scene without them to know what your brother was seeing. Can you get him to take the same picture to compare the two that does not have those seemingly 2 apparitions in one of them? I just see the one for sure.
Also, come older cameras can somehow do a double image; of imprinting an image from an earlier shot on a new picture. I doubt that is the case here but I do notice a glimmer of orange light above the image on the left in the trees that would make me think that.
Anyway.. any chance your brother can take the same picture to see with those apparitions not in it in order to make out clearly what seems to be 2 apparitions in this picture you are showing?

Actually the force is a very new age concept. A non-entity lifeform that surrounds us all and grants those few selected special powers to use it to do their bidding. It is neither good nor evil, but only a reflection of the user.
They "know" things through the force, much like psychics (occult).
And in SW "absolutes" are part of the dark side. So truth is not absolute, but subjective (new age). An ironic statement by the Jedi's.
Evil is only evil when you make a decided choice to engage in evil behJedi' s.
People have both good and evil within them and choose which path to follow (mans duality, eastern philosophy) as opposed to the biblical teaching that man is sinful.
To continue your parallel you have a "bad Jesus". Not sure how that parallels anything biblical. It is an actually evil storyline.
This powerful, murderous leader is really just the puppet of a stronger, disfigured evil lord that used manipulation and deceit and an appeal to selfishness to turn someone from light to dark. Even to the point of causing him to slaughter children by his own hands, turn on his closest friends and supporters and teachers, kill millions in an attempt at a control grab and even to murder his own adult children.
There is no parallel.
Even using the Luke dynamic you're grasping at straws. If Vader were "bad Jesus" (why that alone doesn't stop you from this idea is beyond me) then who is bad Jesus son? Luke? Where is the biblical "Luke" parallel?
And the use of "lord" extends out well beyond Jesus. After all Vader was a Sith 'Lord'. And the Jedi were Knights. Both common terms in historical medieval times.
The Endor name, which has obvious occult ties, is a bit of a turning point in the battle for the Rebels. Making this (nature oriented occult planet) a positive place for the "good guys" in their fight against the bad guys.
All you have is a few scraps that remind you of biblical things, no real parallels to anything substantial. There are way more new age connections than biblical ones.
An excessive response? For sure, but I'm bored =P
