Description
Article [1] Biblical texts condemn mankind (the clay) for questioning Yahweh (the potter) or daring to criticize the maker; Isaiah 64:8 as well as Roman 9:21 are but two examples. I propose a Judeo-Christian reading of Toy Story in that light; I also suggest a comparison with modern, more adult-related, narratives who spin the concept in ways that make mankind creators and have the "created" entities not only questioning the "potter" but taking command, sometimes violently. The similarities and differences between Toy Story on one hand and with The Matrix and Terminator on the other are very telling of modern fairy tale ideologies.
