Don Draper Stole Our Imaginations

Don Draper Stole Our Imaginations

Our main source of dissatisfaction with our bodies is media. Led by ad men, who make billions from our self-loathing, the media steals away our imaginations. How can we steal them back, make our conceptions of beauty functions of virtue again?

From Series: "Crave"

We're made in God's image, but we have bodies, while God is spirit. Are our bodies accidental? Are they temporary? Or are they good, vital and essential to our spirituality? How can we resist the cultural narrative that teaches us to hate our bodies?

[/one_half][one_half_last]Why do we love stories about monsters? Vampires, werewolves, zombies and ghosts fascinate us – which is strange. Monster stories aren’t really about monsters – they’re about us. Monster stories externalize our deepest fears about ourselves. If we’re willing to face our monsters head-on, we can find freedom and hope.

Let the monsters die so the human can thrive!
