568. Arbiters of Bad Taste - Navigating Complex Themes: Review of I Am Mother, Sci-Fi Themes, Christianity, and Balanced Ideologies

Simon and Darian discuss the intricacies of sci-fi and Christianity. Drawing references from 'I am Mother', AI, and 'Star-Trek', they explore themes of deities, dystopia, and societal future expectations. The conversation also critiques remixes of film classics and oversimplification of sci-fi. Furthermore, they explore Christianity through anti-dogmas teachings of Jesus, contrasting followers of Paul and Jesus, and discussing leadership, nationalism, and religious-political perspectives.
