What Can We Learn?
Aesop gained insight by meditating on the actions of animals.
John Muir believed humanity could better understand itself by reflecting on the nature of trees and mountains.
Zoroastrians looked to the stars to find direction in life (one star even lead them to The Life…).
What all these examples have in common is the truth that wisdom is often found in sources we might think have nothing to teach us. So, when we come to these seemingly benign sources, we would do ourselves a great service by intentionally adopting the attitude: I bet there’s some wisdom in there somewhere.
But what if the source isn’t benign? What if it’s something that rubs us the wrong way?
This week, God and the Movies takes us to a provocative, some would even say polarizing story that leads us to make a choice: will we dismiss the questions and issues the story raises or will we choose to have an open mind that believes there’s some wisdom in there somewhere?
