Obama: Antichrist Superstar?
 TT

It's an odd case of life imitating art. The McCain campaign released an ad which lampoons Obama for behaving like the second coming of Jesus Christ. It shares many themes and images with my web miniseries, The Grand Inquisitor.

The Golden Compass: The Anti-Narnia?
 TT

Unlike the successful movies based on C.S. Lewis's Narnia series, the film version of Phillip Pullman's The Golden Compass failed in U.S. theaters – perhaps due to right-wing critics who labelled it a "stealth atheism" campaign. With multi-million dollar movie franchises at stake, a controversy surrounds both authors' work that challenges our society's limited vision of the divine.
