Here's a nerd rage video against the TV-series Rings of Power. But what makes it interesting is that it's the best video I have ever seen on Christian philosophy. Ie, what does it all mean. And, what is it that the Bible wants me to do with my life? The video is interesting because the Rings of Power is post-modern, ie post-Christian. Which is true for most works of popular fiction since the 1950's and which today totally dominates the media landscape. I found this video contrasting a Christian work with a post-modern work extremely illuminating.
J.R.R. Tolkien was very Christian and very conservative. He shared an office with, the just as Christian, C.S. Lewis and they were simultaneously writing educational Christian fables for Children. Narnia is more on the nose than LOTR. But they're both deeply Christian, reactionary and conservative.
