Superman's father sent his only son to Earth to save men kind. His father is in heaven, he is on Earth, although he doesn't belong here, he is unique.
Superman makes sacrifices, he is miraculously powerful, he saves many lives, loved by most, hated by a few.
Then there's Lex Luthor, trying to control the world. Superman has to stop him, and he is willing to give his life to give humanity a second chance.
Our super hero was close to death, after Luthor and his men tortured him, but he survives... at the end of the movie, Superman flies up high.
Isn't all this way too Jesus-like? Isn't Superman Hollywood's Jesus Christ?

SuperMan wasn't sent to Earth to save men kind. He was sent because his planet was going to be distroyed, and if his father wouldn't have sent him, he'd be dead too. His dad didn't send him so he could play a hero. Only to save his son's life

it truly is amazingly exciting. in case you watch the interest of the Christ, you'll see something about Jesus' eyes--they're gold! The eyes are the abode windows to the soul, and it truly is exciting to be conscious that Mel Gibson make Jesus' eyes the colour that represents the incorruptible God. Hollywood does no longer have what it takes to portray Jesus actual. now to not instruct what He looked like. it truly is actual, He might want to seem Israeli, yet He doesn't be handsome. Isaiah describes Him as no longer being comely, in that we'd want to choose Him. God needed His be conscious to be the drawing component, when you consider that from that factor on, it really is all we'd want to ought to bypass on besides. Whey we see Jesus, i imagine we will be bowled over. save in options, His scars will nevertheless be there as a witness. it would want to be that his face might want to resemble Jürgen Prochnow.

Superman would have to vie with Luke Skywalker and ET for the honor of Hollywood's JC.
The problem with these stories is there's no real message of love and comfort for the rest of us, no guidelines on how to live our lives, no guidance on how to be a better person. That's Hollywood, where anything goes.

Yes! I'm glad you found the message! God uses this as a way to tell people about Jesus. Lord of The Rings is another one, Star Wars is another one, The Chronicles of Narnia is a really big one. There is a lot.

Yes the similarity is unmistakable and now to top it all he has a son and that is a secret to the rest of the world. Sounds like the Holy Grail story.

It is a theme used many times. The ancient Greeks had Hercules. His father was a god. He was born from a mortal woman. He was killed by man. He went to heaven to be with his god father. Sounds like JC doesn't it?
