Some fanatical Christians obviously have a problem with Avatar. They call it pagan or even demonic.

Here is a couple of examples:

Avatar advertisement for paganism:
Avatar: Advertisement For Paganism


Is Avatar an Illuminati movie? del 1:
Is "AVATAR" an ILLUMINATI MOVIE? part 1

Is Avatar an Illuminati movie? del 2:
Is "AVATAR" an ILLUMINATI MOVIE? part 2


In the Illuminati videos they even compare the Na`vi to Nephilim, or fallen angels. They also seem to belive that Avatar is a sign of the end being near! They even seem to think that Avatar prepares people to love the Devil!


How can people become so narrowminded and paranoid?


Human No More

Because they thrive on people doing what they're told to. Part of Avatar's message promotes thinking for yourself and not blindly obeying, and that scares them.
"I can barely remember my old life. I don't know who I am any more."

HNM, not 'Human' :)

I don't understand those fanatics...  ???
Don't even try. You can't understand irrational beliefs. Best you can do is find the flaws in their "reasoning", deconstructing their arguments.

but when they clash with each-other,that's when it get's ugly. :P

doesn't religion tend to get in the way of desitions? like a lot? and aren't people suppose to see Eywa as a awesome goddess, maybe another version of god considering that people thought god was a girl in olden times? it just makes no sense why people think Avatar is no where near the good stage.

People who want their religion that encourages ignoring reason and evidence to spread are afraid of anything that does encourage these aspects. Science being the prime example. But also things like Avatar.

First one has more dislikes then likes, they are the same people who make terrorists blow them selves up, just these people don't blow themselves up,
Replied on the first one :
It's a movie, get over it, let others have fun if they like the movie, or even study the language, or even paint themselves blue, they want to have fun...
IF IT'S WHAT THEY WANT THEN LET THEM DO WHAT THEY WANT, Religion has caused many wars so far, and as far as I know, not even done anything good since the year 0... Just fight, fight, fight, war, war, war...
Kill the infidels, if you don't believe in our God you'll die...
Just get over it.

What the first one says makes sense... If and only if you go at it from the worst possible meaning and twist it just to make yourself look better.

...and that's one of the big reasons on why I honor that movie so much.

Here's my 2¢:

If the Na'vi have a religion with a deity named Eywa, how could it have evolved?  I suspect it comes more from a philosophy of "what happens after fko dies?" rather than looking up to "this great leader who will always serve us."

...but what if the mighty one isn't always there?  What if he is only with the spirits?  I suspect the Na'vi realize this, and so must care for themselves on their planet while they can.  In addition, they can always tsaheyl si back to the otherworldly realm that is within Eywa, and stay within a greater and more solid unity.

nearly every person asks why they are in my signature. it's just a matter of fun message scripting like this- [ b]2[ /b]=2(without the spaces.

WOW i cant believe how closed minded some people can be because if they dont understand or like something that doesnt go along with their belief.
So sad, very sad

The Christian church I grew up in has a bunch if sects....Southern, Independent, Free Will, and a whole bunch more but they all claim to be the ONE. They are basically the same...literal translation (english King James version only please), bigots, gay haters, and against every other religion including others of their own that may just be down the block. Only a white heaven, they think.

I was 7 in one of these when two African American men came to the church to attend services only to be told they could not enter because it was white only. My ancestry is half native american. We grew up in the South so they did everything they could to avoid being considered of color. This deeply offended me even at 7. When I turned 18 I moved out and left that narrow minded chruch. They have said I am going to Hell. Oh well, since Heaven in their mind consists of about 50 white people all members of the same church then I am glad to go someplace else. Needless to say in their minds Avatar and its message of hope and peace is satanic. I get reminded of that about every time I talk to a family member. At now56 years old, I could care less what they think and have not since I was a child. Wrong is easy to recognise at any age.

Give me big the blue Na'vi, dignity, peace and the idea of an deity that encompasses all. Very much like my ancesters before the invasion of 1492....

Dont preachers say to look for God on Earth? Basically God reated the earth and man, thus he lives in everything giving us a force to assosiate with. That is why I think it is always nice to go to the mountains or to a ntl park where the beauty of Earth is everuwhere and you can enjoy what was made for us.

Also God didnt write the Bible, man wrote it. Sure they wrote the teachings but for the longest time the church used its interpretaiing power to politically control whole nations and almost still does today.

Basically, just be a good moral person who defends the weak (like Jeasus did, and Jake) and is clean of action and thought. Of course we will make mistakes but God will accept you back so long as you believe that you did wrong and confess what you did to him and are sorry for it. Then you will be forgiven... pass on the forgiveness, spread the care for each other and maybe this world wouldnt be so cut throat and cruel to evreybody.

Yeah you are right about that. I have known very few really Christain people in my life and one of them is my grandfather. He is always the most helpful and kind to anybody, basically he has everygood moral written into this DNA. He is a great man and I love having his company. The only thing is that he NEVER goes to church. His reason? He hates being told that he is doing wrong when he knows full well he is following and even setting a good example.
