VATICAN CITY — The Vatican newspaper and radio station have called the film "Avatar" simplistic, and criticized it for flirting with modern doctrines that promote the worship of nature as a substitute for religion. Lately, I've been wondering if part of our inability to see the natural world as valuable and worth preserving comes from our modern religious notions that put mankind in both roles as creation and creator? Where people once used to worship the natural world, we have now taken all that we used to see as divine about nature and attributed those qualities to a person. We have closed the loop, putting ourselves and our own wishes, represented by human deities, above the natural world. | |
