God & Graphics

This graphics stuff in the movies has made God more popular. Since man can do magic through software, God in It’s screen avatar is now capable of performing better feats. Or rather, there is more authenticity now on the gizmo’s He carries, than it was earlier.

I have always pondered about the fact why God goes through this inextricable web of designs to eliminate the bad guys. After all, He is supposed to be all-powerful and he should have been simply killing them by wish rather than a long drawn battle. If an argument is put forth that God was restricting Himself with the limitations of the avatar, then also I have an issue. Even within that, there was unbelievable stuff done by Him.

I don’t know why these story-weavers of Him have to do this character build up. Apparently even God needs advertisement to be believed. Whichever God it maybe, there should have been something miraculous done by them to be accepted. Now, I don’t know why we complain about Saibaba, when he materializes chains and rings to gain more credibility. Baba himself has told that these miracles are nothing but his visiting cards. And Gods then was probably forced to carry a few Themselves!!

It was Kamal Haasan who told that, the main reason of atheism growing in Tamil Nadu is the mythological movies. How very true?! In these movies, though He triumphs at the end, first He is made laughing stock by some stupid, good for nothing villains getting the better of Him for a major part of the movie. And in the end, do some really unbelievable stunts to come out winner.

Now, I am afraid that the graphics thing is going to help atheism flourish better. With TV right at your drawing room, Gods are now unleashing a barrage of arrows that does almost everything else but killing.

I only wish that we grew up faster & sooner and understand the real greatness of God and how we can realize Him ourselves without the aid of graphics. And, He is there everywhere, just everywhere.
