RELIGION IN JAMES CAMERON'S AVATAR / A Catholic Priest's Account and Reflection

James Cameron's Avatar was not simply a successful film. It was—and continues to be—a cultural phenomenon. A modern myth. An emotional experience that many viewers even described as "spiritual." And this is where it's important to pause. Because when cinema begins to offer spiritual experiences, the question is no longer aesthetic. It is THEOLOGICAL. IT IS ANTHROPOLOGICAL. IT IS PROFOUNDLY HUMAN. Today we are not going to analyze Avatar for its visual effects, nor for its technical innovation, nor even for its superficial environmental message. Today we are going to ask ourselves some uncomfortable, but honest, questions: WHAT WORLDVIEW DOES AVATAR PROPOSE? WHAT IDEA OF GOD—OR OF THE DIVINE—DOES IT CONVEY? WHAT KIND OF SPIRITUALITY IS IT FORMING IN THE VIEWER? I INVITE you to travel to PANDORA in a very different way, looking BEYOND THE OBVIOUS!!! 📡My social media: 📷Instagram:   / unperegrino_gris   💻Facebook:   / unperegrinogris
