People need hope. Without it, what is there to look forward to?
Watched “Knowing” Last night. Another appacalyptic movie. Spoiler alert: The world ends, but aliens save a boy and a girl and bring them to a new world somewhere to repopulate it…
Fascinated by one of the comments made in one of the extra features: concerning “hope.” “I think the alien mythology offer humans a great deal of hope. Hope of human survival against a backdrop of a planet that seems to be doomed weather because of nuclear annihilation, environmental degregation, government indifference to our problems… Whatever it is that is bad here on earth, the aliens are going to come and pluck us here off the earth and somewhere, somehow in some far away place, human beings are going to survive and live on….”
Still can’t tell if this lady was serious or not.
A better hope: 1 Tim 4:9-10
