The Devil Wars Prada 2 Review

  The original Devil Wears Prada movie was about how the Runaway, the “beacon” of the fashion industry was run by a woman akin to the devil herself, Miranda Priestly, played by the legendary actress Meryl Streep. One of her interns, Andy, played by Ann Hathaway is tested as she is transformed by her job from a kind hearted gal to someone willing to throw people under the bus to keep her job. At the end Andy faces a cross roads, and decides not to become the devil’s daughter, and instead chases her journalism goals. The film is a classic, and when sequel was announced I had reservations. The first film tells Andy’s story as protagonist so well from beginning to end, that a sequel felt unnecessary.  My reservations about sequels have merit for some of worst films are sequels made too long after the original, examples being Coming To America 2 and Happy Gilmore 2. Usually what happens is a major regression of the progress the characters had, which a chief example of this is The B...

Neon Genesis Evangelion Anime Examined

  The Apostle Paul warned the Church of Corinth that they put up with another gospel, “But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his trickery, your minds will be led astray from sincere and pure devotion to Christ. For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted,  this  you tolerate too easily!” (2 Corinthians 11:3-4), and that anyone who preaches another evangelion (gospel in Greek) is condemned, “But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel (evangelion) other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!” (Galatians 1:8-9).  Neon Genesis Evangelion is a acclaimed anime that is as well known as Gundam. The story uses many symbols, themes, and t...

Lilith The Mother of Demons

  The first time I ever heard the name Lilith was watching Cheers, and later Fraiser, she was a character of cold personality who Fraiser Crane marries and has a child with. Every joke about her spoke of the legends of her contained in The Gilgamish, The Bablyonian Talmud, The Book of Zohar, The Alphabet Ben Sira, and other Jewish Mystical Writings like the Midrash. I did not really understand who she was until I read the Third Volume of Lancelot-Grail Cycle, le queste del sainte graal in which Sir Galhad, Percieval, and another Knight dicuss Lilith on a ship in their journey, mentioning she was the first wife of Adam; that before Eve was another womn who is mother of all witches and demons. This concept that Lilith is a first wife of Adam is found in Roman Catholicism and Judaism. However, she predates these notions of being Adam’s first mate as demoness and the first Succubus and Vampries in the Gilgamish. In that Sumerian Legend it says of her,   “The Anzu-bird   ...

Spirit of Death At Work In Our World

  The Global Suicide rate is “at 1.9 out of 1000,000 people. That comes to 1 out 100 people worldwide.” (Wikipedia). Suicide is not anything new, King Saul threw himself on his sword at prospect of being captured, and Judas Iscariot after betraying Jesus hung himself. What is unique is the uptick, the rise in this century. I believe this trend and the obsession with death, particularly the prevalence of horror movies now is a sign of something more. It is not just a passing fancy, it is Biblical Fufillment.  We have to remember something first. The original angel of death was Satan, ”Now since the children have flesh and blood, He too shared in their humanity, so that by His death He might destroy him who holds the power of death, that is, the devil,” (Hebrews 2:14). One of the devil’s offices was custodian of death, I believe Anubis the god of the underworld in the Egyptian pantheons is based on him. If we understand this, then Satan is likely not given up on exerting this po...

Aliens are Demons

  I wrote a blog post not too long ago postulating that aliens might be a different species, and not angels. After some more rumination on the topic, I have come to conclusion that aliens, that is extra-terrestials are demonic entiries. This is a very traditonal Christian view of aliens, and yet I believe that case I am going to make will prove this to be true. The first problem with aliens or extra terrestial life is that it posits God as an alien, twisting Ezekiel 1. Alien can mean “not from here,” so that would seem accurate, however, alien as it now means implies a certain type of being that is not human and is not spirit, when Christ our Lord said, “God is Spirit, and his Worshippers must worship him in spirit and truth.” (John 4:24).  The first sign aliens are demonic is that they draw people away from God for explanations and focus, when the Hebrew writer says, “fix your eyes on Jesus, the Author and Prefector of our Faith,” (Hebrews 12:2) and the Apostle Paul says, “I ...

The Occult: The Thread of the Serpent

  The world Occult means “hidden” or “secret.” It generally is the seeking of mysteries and powers through magical means. Jesus Christ our Lord ]made it clear that He was not an occultist, “Jesus answered him, “I have spoken openly to the world. I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together. I have said nothing in secret.” (John 18:20). There is a heretical sect known as Gnostic Christianity that claims to know secret knowledge, which makes it occult by definition and Jesus clearly rebukes this in the Apocalypse, “But the rest of you in Thyatira have not followed this evil teaching; you have not learned what the others call 'the deep secrets of Satan.' I say to you that I will not put any other burden on you..” (Revelation 2:24). And that is exactly was Occultism is, evil teachings and deep secrets of Satan. In almost all the high occultic traditions and even demonic powers the serpent is a focus. In Egyptian Occult the top powers are Anacon...

Woman: The Gateway of Sin

  Many scholars and exegetists will claim that Sin came into the world by Man, by Adam. that the codex for Original Sin is Patriarchal, that this explains aggression in man, and why wars happen. This is false, sin did not first come into the world by a man, rather a partnership between The Deceiver Satan and the first Woman Eve:  “You will not surely die,” the serpent told the woman.“For God knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.  When the woman saw that the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eyes, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom, she took the fruit and ate it. She also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it.” (Genesis 3:4-7). It was Eve, not Adam that participated first in this disobedience. She certainly was being Deceived by the Serpent who is Satan, “And the great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the wh...
