Kingdom Hearts & Entanglement Theology

Christian Ashley Episode 335 • 17th December 2024 • Systematic Geekology • anazao ministries

Talking about a classic videogame franchise that combines Final Fantasy with Disney, as well as discussing the merits of event-based metaphysics, Joshua Noel, Christian Ashley, and Joe Dea have a great time in this episode! We go over the ontological arguments the Kingdom Hearts franchise speaks to regarding what makes us, us! We also discuss how everyone in the games seems to either be revealed to be Sora, Kairi, or Xehanort, and whether that tracks with Christian thought on how we are all in relationships with one another!

.

Is Kingdom Hearts a hack and slash? Is Kingdom Hearts a spin-off of Final Fantasy? What is Kingdom Hearts a metaphor for? What is the message of Kingdom Hearts? What does Kingdom Hearts teach us? What is the quantum entanglement theology? What is the entanglement theory? What is the doctrine of entanglement? What is ontology in simple terms? What is ontology in theology? Are we defined by our parts or are we something more? What role do our memories play in defining who we are? We discuss all this and more in this one! Join in the conversation with us on Discord now!

Systematic Geekology

Our show focuses around our favorite fandoms that we discuss from a Christian perspective. We do not try to put Jesus into all our favorite stories, but rather we try to ask the questions the IPs are asking, then addressing those questions from our perspective. We are not all ordained, but we are the Priests to the Geeks, in the sense that we try to serve as mediators between the cultures around our favorite fandoms and our faith communities.
