I'm returning to finish off my God in the MCU series I did a year ago (can't believe it's been that long!)

For those of you unfamiliar with this series, I try to give a recap at the beginning of this video. I highly recommend checking it out on my channel if you haven't seen it yet though. 

This is a religious-leaning video, so if you're not into that kind of thing, just a heads up! I hope you enjoy it. This will be live next week for everyone else.

A Christian Defense of Avengers: Infinity War || God in the MCU

Does the MCU contain anti-God themes with an agenda to persuade viewers that God is actually evil? Are there parallels between characters in the MCU and the Bible with a motive to skew the Truth? I'm returning to an older series where I argue in favor of Marvel films from a Christian perspective. In this video, we'll discuss Avengers: Infinity War, Chris Pratt, and the cinematic themes therein. I hope you enjoy and participate in the conversation!

Hey Holden! Great video, I really love this series. I wonder if there is a concise way to address that, while I totally agree that the movies aren’t anti-Christian programming or propaganda, there are likely some intentional or unintentional parallels to God/Jesus/The Bible in these films (and a lot of other popular media). We live in a society that, for better or worse, is heavily influenced by Christian beliefs and values, and modern storytelling makes good use of the pervasiveness of those themes and stories. So, yeah, there are parallels to these things—but it isn’t nefarious. It just IS.

I talked about that in another video. So much of our culture has been influenced by Christianity that it's just a part of secular culture as well. I think that's absolutely fair to say.

With regards to “I am” copying the bible. As Peter Quill said “It’s not that unique of a thing to say”

I almost asked in your live stream today if you had any plans to do more of these. I now wish I had so that you could have given that look to the camera and said, "who's to say?"
