I'll admit to being biased against the show from the start, but your description of it sounds like Jesus is just a constant deus ex machina. Is there more to it than "Jesus shows up and everything's cool now?"
- colordrops 5y agoConsidering its meaning, is your use of the term "Deus ex machina" (god out of the machine) intentionally ironic?
- boomboomsubban 5y agoIt's just the term for a seemingly unsolvable situation suddenly being solved by an unexpected occurrence.
- jollybean 5y ago"but your description of it sounds like Jesus is just a constant deus ex machina." - there is no reasonable way to infer this from the given comment. Thee 'bias' may be a bit stronger than imagined.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoNot particularly. Their description was that everybody has real problems that are changed by coming in contact with Jesus. Real problems, solved by a solution suddenly showing up in the third act. A deus ex machina.
