An interesting column and thought provoking. I was wondering how he would fit in the 2d movie and it makes sense to me.
"Therefore rather than writing off the theological theory of Indiana Jones as so much wishful thinking of an imaginative Christian with too much time on his hands, we ought to ponder the mysterious interactions of creativity with truth. In attempting to tell a good story did the various Indiana Jones writers unwittingly tap into deeper truths?"
If we accept that Truth is universal, and natural law written on the heart of every man, then we have to believe that it must seep into just about every opening. CS Lewis wrote quite a bit about the revelation of Truth in pagan mythology and how God could and would use even non-believers and the uninitiated to proclaim the Word.
I have no illusion that Spielberg or Lucas had any intent of using the Indiana Jones films to promote a Christian worldview. Neither does the author. The author does make a valid case that the fact that the films could be perceived as doing so, may be more than mere coincidence.
