There’s some difference in this area between church and movies. Church’s issues with indoctrination—er, I mean salvation—of children is complicated, problematic, and sensitive. Instilling morals in children is probably good, though perhaps instilling the notion that morality is a quest rather than a set of rules seems more beneficial, though perhaps too complicated for a young mind. Then again, lying may not be the greatest strategy either, because disillusionment is a hell of a drug. Movies are more industrial and manipulative regarding children, looking to separate parents from their money by creating dumbed down material. But it seems mostly fun and harmless I think. Maybe others think differently.
Movies and church bear some pretty fundamental similarities. It’s no wonder something like Scientology that combines the two seamlessly has had so much success in Hollywood. When stars are treated as though they are prophets already, it makes sense to turn them into literally holy figures.
I may not believe in logic-defying theories, but I do worship at the altar of Christopher Nolan, so it’s hard for me to say I’m not religious.
