    Hollywood has a new cash cow, and his name is Jesus. As studios scramble for post-COVID relevance, they’ve traded superheroes for the "chosen" ones, grossing hundreds of millions by turning ancient dogmas into bingeable blockbusters. We’re dissecting the "happy gauze" applied to biblical atrocities and the rise of masculine religion vs. feminine spirituality on screen. From Avatar’s blue-tinted woo to the thirst for religious sequels, it’s clear the industry cares less about salvation than the bottom line. It turns out even the Son of God needs a high-budget filter to be marketable.

    Pope Leo XIV is suddenly very concerned that the world is too violent, which is rich coming from the leader of history's wealthiest criminal organization. While he decries the erosion of human life, it’s mostly just a Trojan horse to smuggle in anti-choice dogma and play to "end times" fantasies. We’re dissecting the selective outrage that ignores secular suffering while demanding moral authority the Vatican forfeited centuries ago. If the Church actually cared about peace, they’d trade their gold chalices for boots on the ground instead of just offering more holy lip service.

    Jan 20 2026
    As religion bleeds followers, it’s looking for a digital transfusion from the high-tech elite. We're dissecting the rise of techno-cults, the Vatican’s desperate attempt to regulate AI with its Antiqua et Nova policy, and why tech bros like Peter Thiel are now becoming guest speakers at megachurch revivals. It turns out that when you can’t get answers from a burning bush, a large language model that tells you exactly what you want to hear is the next best thing. Silicon Valley is building the new gods of a digital age where faith and profit finally merge.
