A Christian Review of Avatar 2

 

From a Russian film maker, Vasily Yatskin.  Some outtakes:

War with the Creator

In the first film, the main character, who is still struggling to choose between returning to being a human or remaining a full-time avatar says: "It seems that the real world (the good world) is in my avatar, and my human existence is like a bad dream." In the second film, he has transitioned into a full-time avatar. Even the alien whales in Avatar 2 are presented as psychologically and emotionally superior to humans. 

Here the Devil rejoices! After all, he hates everything created by God. He longs to coax people away from the Creator and what he created with the lie of transhumanism, to lead people away from two genders and patriarchal family values into transgenderism.  

It is futile to explain to people who do not accept Christianity that the invented "world of our own" is finite and God's world is infinite in the extent to which The Father can perceive it and be its co-creator. Transhumanism is a deception, a false transformation, a pair of external crutches instead of an inherent, inexhaustible source for self-perfection. No synthetic strawberries can ever replace fragrant forest strawberries. 

But synthetics are easier to produce on an industrial scale. It doesn't matter what they feed people with, as long as the people feel satiated,  and they make money on it, and take control of the basic resources of life. 

Idols and heroes

In the Avatar films, the idol is the sacred Mother Earth tree, which every Na'vi tribe has, and which it will fight to protect at any cost. Again, creation is put in the place of the Creator.

In the second film, one of the human avatars, a female scientist, gives birth to a daughter whose father is unknown.  Is this some kind of a hint that perhaps the little girl was conceived from the Mother Earth tree? Is the girl perhaps a pseudo-Christ?
