The Thin Place #24: Looper and the Morality of Time Travel

from The Thin Place · host Kenneth R. Morefield

Ken and Todd look at Rian Johnsonâ€™s sci-fi, time-travel hit, Looper. Is changing the future the same as â€œplaying Godâ€? Is there anything theological about the filmâ€™s depiction of addictions? What verse in the Book of Genesis makes Ken doubtful that time-travel is ever really possible? Just what exactly is soul annihilation, and why does the way we interpret the film have consequences for the way we conceptualize hell?
