Lessons from the Silver Surfer !

I just saw the Movie : Fantastic Four : Rise of the silver surfer ! I should say the hero of the movie is the Silver Surfer as he is the one who sacrifices his life in order to save our planet. In the process, he destroys "Galactus", the eater of worlds !

On a more serious note, the finale of the movie of the explosive ending of a world eating villain by a seemingly small surfer is quite similar to our own fight against our superstitions. Our cultural civilizations have forced us to serve masters we do not often wish to serve. The most common reason is that we do not have a choice. In order to merge into society, we are often forced to align ourselves favourably to certain guidelines. This is often what blinds us from the truth, for example, the underlying spirituality beneath religious rites.

In the Movie, the silver surfer realized that we do have a choice and he chose to break away the bonds of his captivity and in turn saving others and paving the way for a future with choices.
