‘Aw, I wanted to be ginger! I’ve never been ginger! And you, Rose Tyler! Fat lot of good you were! You gave up on me! Oh, that’s rude. Is that the sort of man I am now? Am I rude? Rude and not ginger.’

I believe in her

I think those lines, simple as they are, are the core message of many scifi/alien films: what example do we provide for other alien life? What will they learn about humanity when they see us? Are we straight-up killers or are we a species that shows compassion? Do we show them war, or do we show them peace? And the scary thing is that there are people, many people in fact, who would say “yes, I am a killer” without giving a chance to anything else

how easy it is to destroy– and how brave, to be alive

“Firstly, Rose is neither shallow nor stupid. She doesn’t settle for second best. She gets the person she fell in love with. And, as a bonus, he’s now able to spend the rest of his life with her, as she with him. Secondly, the very same person who experienced the heartbreak of losing Rose for the first time now experiences joy at the prospect of a lifetime in her company. In this full sense, the Doctor who lost, finally wins.” — Paul Dawson, Doctor Who and Philosophy: Bigger on the Inside

And you only have to look to real life to see that love looks past age too. So of course an ancient, time-traveling alien can fall in love with a young shop girl. Of course a woman with more compassion than the ocean could hold can fall in love with a man who’s killed billions. Because love looks at what matters. It’s really good at that. And if you think otherwise, you’re missing out on the entire message the Doctor has been trying to tell us for the last fifty plus years. And in that case, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.
