I don't care about the theological aspects. If it's a really cool movie,
I'll want to see it. It looks cool in the previews.
Do you think the Christian aspect will be very obvious in the film?
Stephen--
Did you read "How Christianity (and Capitalism) Led to Science"? It's in
the same issue of The Chronicle - December 2, p. B11 (just before the
Narnia article in the print version). I get the print version from a
friend but I don't have access to the online version or I'd send a URL.
I am interested in this article. I have read only part of it so far, but
I will read the rest and I may want to discuss it with you if you have the
time. Quote: "The success of the West, including the rise of science,
rested entirely on religious foundations." I doubt I will arrive at the
same conclusion as the author after reading his article, but I'll try to
predict my reaction as "Christianity had some features that allowed
science to progress better than under some other religious/social
systems."
Mike
