Read about a bunch of losers getting suicidal after watching Avatar - and not even coz of its bland excuse for an engaging plot - apparently real life just can’t compare to James Cameron’s rainforest paradise.
But I guess some of the underlying themes – eternal life, renewed creation, new bodies etc. are actually pretty reminiscient of Christian theology; and as the Bibles says, God has put eternity on the heart of man – so on one level, I can understand the longings of these goons. So here are a few reasons why heaven will be better than Avatar®
- No 3d glasses required (no headaches either!)
- No stoopz blu ppl
- No environmental agenda/pantheistic paganism subtext
- God is present as a Person; not some vague, unsatisfying and ultimately static panentheistic life force
