Evan Shively- Class Film


What stood out to me in the movie was the scene you played for us earlier in the year. The scene contains a church with the backdrop missing as it is beginning to be tore down. The preacher stands in front of a backdrop of nature and mountains. This to me reminds me of the naturalistic roots of christianity. If God is creator then earth is his creation. The man made structures that we invest so much into, are merely that man made. Nature however, is created through a divine hand. It is weird to me that churches often times separate people from nature instead of worshiping in nature. For me nature brings me closer to God, churches should not shut that out.
