How come a large percentage of movies potraying the apocalypse always focus on the way it is most likely to go is the devil came to eath?
If Christianity is so popular, how come the only time you ever get to see some actor potraying Jesus H. Christ, is when he's getting whipped and dehumanised (aka the Passion)??
The only explanation I can come up with is that it's most probably blasphemous to act out how you think the world (usually New York or somewhere in the US) will turnout on the big day.
I mean there's movies ranging from The Devil's Advocate to End of Days etc. That basically play out the whole "End of the world as we know it" phenomenon. And yet there's only a handful of movies that focus solely on Jesus. And they're all more or less focusing on the same subject matter. i.e. Either Him being tortured (a la Passion of Christ), or on his way to getting tortured (
And considering Christianity is one of the most popular religions, right up there with Islam and all the others; it's kinda strange that one of the minority religions get more airplay.
Why is it that you get some brands aligning (for lack of a better word) their products (one way or another) to the devil or hell or somewhere close to there... (brands like Hell's Angels comes to mind)
Come to think of it...
There's a chilli sauce called "Hot as Hell" available at one South African
restaurant. And beleive me, it truly is hot. But I wouldn't go as far as
comparing it to Hell. Seeing as none of us actually know what hell tastes like.
Or even how hot it is...
And then again, you find only a handful on the other end of the scale. There are relatively fewer brands who market themselves as being "affiliated" to God/Heaven/Jesus.
For some reason I can only think of one brand (Sweets from Heaven) in comparison to the afore mentioned "Hell brand".
Again, why are people more attracted to Hell than Heaven? Is it because we all have that devilish side that these brands seem to cater for? Is it becuase people thinks the Heaven brand if for sissies?
Right now I wish I had studied Marketing or Phsycology, to better understand exactly WTF!! (what the fuss)!
