EVIL DREAD

Just when you think you are going to avoid a zombie apocalypse a number of things happen that make you wonder if we live in a bad b-horror film and that what we are seeing is something that is going to wind up ending badly and leaves us with a feeling of evil dread. We need time to understand the metaphysical happenings and worldwide changes going on that can easily put a person in to a state of shock and anxiety.

Popular fascination with armageddon has become a goldmine for Hollywood as film after film has had the underlying theme of apocalyptic doom and predictive programming. We have been witnessing a mother lode of celluloid apocalyptic themes and now it seems we are living in the reality that was once on the screen.

Most of the themes we see on the screen circle around the issues of “the invisible indefinable enemy, dimensional travel, temporal shifts or disturbances and the war between mankind and a legion of demons that are hell bent on establishing a cult of followers.”

We are also being fed movies that appear to impart historical fact, when quite simply that which appears to be non-fiction is fiction.

For years, the “born again” dispensationalist eschatology has been thrown into literature and movies. Many believe these movies have been a detriment to the faith because much of what is shown or written in these books are not based on any scripture or canonized doctrine.

Therefore, much of what has been written about the end of the world or the antichrist has been heresy. Many movies and books have taken liberties with passages of scripture and with interpretations of apocalyptic themes found in Nostradamus Quatrains, the Book of Daniel, the book of the Apocalypse and various apocryphal books that try to determine what the future holds.

Whatever this future might be, the echo of its thunder is rumbling into the present, causing us to think that the end times are approaching. To some the trumpets have already been blown and faith in unfounded b-movie heresy is creating prejudice that is misleading and probably even manufactured as a way to create order from the potential chaos that awaits us. We will eventually realize that our faith has been betrayed and the concept of modern apotheosis is and always has been a lie?
