Silent Destruction

From the movie Baraka

  During one of our media appreciation classes, we were required to watch a movie called "Baraka" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baraka_(film) . What struck me most about the film about the was though it was close to a silent movie (there was some annoying disturbance thanks speaker settings I think was wrong cause some of the sounds were screeching in my ears) was the volcanoes in the movie. Brilliant idea that was because it just about summarizes the movie of Baraka which shows how humans destroy nature because of their selfish nature. The volcanoes showed me (I think) the doom of humanity for destroying mother earth. It was silent (the volcano)but it was so obvious that great mountain of destruction was watching over the humans from its great height above. When it erupted I "felt" its anger towards the ways of men just exploded and it was punishing mankind with its burning lava. Now the "dawn" hit in me the face when i realized that according to the Bible the punishment for "the unrepentant" is an eternity doomed in the "lake of fire". Lava=Lake of fire. Scary.
