Hollywood’s big story?
I recently saw The Eternals, one of the latest Hollywood blockbusters in the cinema. The movie is part of the ‘Marvel Universe’ series, with that title itself suggesting something supernatural. Expecting an entertaining challenge to my faith, I was not disappointed, though I came away somewhat disturbed.

The basic plot has elements which resonate with Christian viewers. It features a god-figure, Arishem, sovereign creator of good and evil. Arishem has created the Eternals as his agents to combat the evil Deviants. But the Eternals are deceived by Arishem, not realising that they are implementing his ultimate plan to destroy the earth as part of a re-creation process.
