Chrissy Jaeger-Matrix
The movie the Matrix is really similar to Chronicles of Narnia. Just like he said that he did not intend for there to be any religious undertones, but there are. In the Matrix there is a world that is not the real world, in fact the world that everyone lives in is being controlled by “evil.” And there is the “one” who can save them all. In this movie you can see underlying principles of Christianity. The “one” is like a Christ, who saves man kind from the evil they are not even aware of. Not only that but I like that the real world is dirty and hard and broken, but you are more alive and you know the truth, and it can be better. This is sort of like Chrisitianity. Being a Christian is hard, and dirty, and broken, but you know the truth and it makes you alive. I wonder if the people who made the movie meant for this to happen, or if it was just a coincidence. Or, maybe it is more that eternity is in the hearts of all men, and so even if they do not realize it the truth seeps out.
