Avatar and Avatars

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had attended a secret underground theatre in Tehran which he used to watch decadent western movies in private.

Of course other decadent western movies he could watch in the privacy of his study on his computer where he could also have his chair taken out to be steam cleaned afterwards while he washed his hands and also laundered his underwear (not to mention using glass cleaner on those stains on his computer screen!).

But this movie was different. James Cameron's Avatar in 3D.

So he attended the secret underground theatre. Put on the glasses. And watched it in 3D.

He had trouble sleeping afterwards that night.

A Thai Buddhist monk paid his admission at the theatre in Bangkok where James Cameron's Avatar was showing in 3D.

He put on the glasses and watched the show.

He had trouble sleeping that night.

An Orthodox Jewish rabbi in Jerusalem used a Hanukkah gift certificate to purchase his way into the theatre where a 3D performance of James Cameron's Avatar was being held.

He put on his glasses and watched the show.

He too had trouble sleeping that night.

In the theatre district of Mumbai, India- there was one theatre that was not showing a Bollywood film. It was showing James Cameron's Avatar in 3D. A High Priest of a Temple of Vishnu paid the admission and entered the theatre.

He put on his glasses and watched the show.

He too had trouble sleeping that night.

A woman who was the former Governor of a northern U.S. state looked around the line at the movie theatre hoping no one would recognize her. As a good Republican and a good Christian, it might hurt her chances of taking a run at the Presidency in 2012 if she was seen buying her way into a movie that promoted the same New Age pantheism as Disney Films' Pocahontas did back in 1995 (not to mention virtually the same plot according to some).

She bought her ticket, put on her 3D glasses and watched James Cameron's Avatar.

She too had trouble sleeping that night.

The being of light manifested itself to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

"You're Imam Mahdi," said Ahmadinejad awestruck.

"I am Imam Mahdi," the being of light answered and then spoke a few words to Ahmadinejad.

Ahmadinejad smiled, "That will bring about World War III and the end of the world but I shall do as you say."


The being of light manifested itself to the Thai Buddhist monk sleeping on the floor of his cell in the monastery in Bangkok.

"You are Maitreya," said the Buddhist monk awestruck.

"I am Maitreya," the being of light answered and then spoke a few words to the monk.

"That will bring about destruction and cataclysm on our planet but nevertheless I shall do as you say," the monk bowed his head to the floor.

The being of light manifested itself to the orthodox Jewish rabbi in Jerusalem.

"You are Messiah," said the rabbi awestruck.

"I am Messiah," the being of light answered and then spoke a few words to the rabbi.

"This will mean the Apocalypse and World War III but I shall do as you say," the Rabbi lowered his head and bowed to the being.

The being of light manifested itself to the High Priest of Vishnu who was praying on the floor of the Temple of Vishnu.

"You are Krishna," said the High Priest awestruck.

"I am Krishna," answered the being of light and then spoke a few words to the High Priest.

"This will mean the end of this present age and the world as we know it but nevertheless I shall do as you say," the High Priest prostrated himself on the floor of the Temple.

The former Governor woke up in the middle of the night fearing that Katie Couric was in her bedroom.

"Oh, it's you, Jesus," the former Governor felt relieved especially as she could hear the Katy Perry song I Kissed A Girl being played loudly in the room next door.

"Yes, I am Jesus," the being of light answered and then spoke a few words to the former Governor.

"Well that will bring about Armageddon and the Apocalypse and World War III but nevertheless I shall do as you say, Lord," the former Governor fell on her knees in front of the being of light.

Somewhere on this earth in a deep underground cave, a golden cobra danced to and fro in front of its own reflection in a diamond studded golden mirror so carefully polished that the cobra could see its exact own reflection.

The golden cobra bowed to its own reflection in the mirror and hissed in a voice more terrifying than the voice of a snake of Voldemort in a Harry Potter film, "Let the games begin."

Around the golden cobra circled tiny 3D holographic images of the Imam Mahdi, the Maitreya Buddha, Krishna, the Messiah of Judaism and the figure of Jesus.

It was the middle of the night and a 3D holographic image of a giant QUESTION MARK suddenly appeared to militant atheist Richard Dawkins who had only seen the 3D version of James Cameron's Avatar a few hours earlier.
