They literally called Terminator 2 "Judgement Day", therefore yes, there are Christian aspects. And Terminator 1 could be said to loosely follow the Christ birth allusion in Revelation about the dragon waiting to devour the yet to be born child. And how the woman fled into the wilderness to avoid harm.
It wouldn't be the first time that Christian concepts have been modified for cinema. Even "the Force" from star wars is an allusion to Christ stating that with enough faith you can move mountains ("cast into the sea" etc). And it paints a picture of a sprawling society where the force (faith) had been twisted by a dark order under Palpatine (a representation of the Catholic Pope / Papacy). The "dark father" Darth Vader could be a reference to Priests that take the title of Father in the Catholic Faith. The Rebelion represents the Reformation. Even the showdown with Palpatine is done in a cathedral-like setting. And the power of Palpatine is overthrown by Darth Vader (the dark father), which itself may represent the success of reformers in creating schism, where Darth Vader would represent Martin Luther (whom himself was a priest).
Yes but what’s interesting is this shows the terminator movie was about a sub story of the Bible. Not exactly “the main story” so to speak.
And places AI as Satan etc as well as putting other things in to perspective.
That X-Files episode basically shows you one for one what the terminator movie really was.
Imagine the terminator movie, but the main elements are Christian elements. And Mulder and Scully are showing up diagnosing it as it goes along. That’s that episode.
Just finished watching it, and found several non-intersecting ideas, sort of a Bible buffet.
Protecting a child/toddler was done to Moses by Pharaoh's daughter, and to Jesus when Joseph was given the dream to go to Egypt to protect from Herod. I don't recall any 8-12yo children requiring protection from anyone in the Bible.
The Battle of Armageddon theme is a mix of the actual battle and the crucifixion. The real Battle of Armageddon is going to be 200 million of satan's army amassing, and Christ winning it. Doesn't sound like any Christian army will be there at all, just Christ.
The zionist kikes are waiting for a militant-messiah type, which is why they are trying to bring about the chaos that they believe will usher in their "militant messiah" and why Jesus was crucified - because the kikes wanted a savior from the Roman oppression, not the Savior that would bear the sins of everyone.
The dead body idea mimics both Lazarus (John 11:39 - Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that had died, said unto him, Lord, by this time he stinks, for he has been dead four days.) and the two prophets in the end times who are killed and their bodies are seen by the whole world:
Rev 11 7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.
11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
I didn't get a direct "prophetic" vibe from the episode, just some general thematic elements that are pervasive throughout literature.
Edit: Rev 11:9-10 actually sounds like a tiktok challenge.
