<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I just think that the values promoted throughtout the movies are quite universal. Most religions promote goodness and the self-sacrifice for the greater good. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Precisely, values can be promoted without pushing a particular religous agenda. Which is why it ticks me off to see movie critics say things like, 'among other problems with Reloaded, the overt Christian theme that prevailed was sickening,' when they are using the 'prayer scene' as a basis for that. In case they didn't know, almost <B>all</B> religons pray, so you can't pin any one down in particlar. Anyways, sorry if that was to off-topic .
