Religion is only fearful; what causes this popular belief system -Nibiru, Tyche, whatever- is that some people want the world to end; and are hopeful it will. Call it man’s inherent suicidal tendency. Faced with fear, stress, or anguish, fight or flee instinct takes hold; at issue is what to do when there is not a single thing to be afraid of. Who do you fight? Which direction do you run? You know its hopeless… so rather than suffer you take a third option. And don’t say there isn’t a historical precedence for suicide; cultures around the world have supported it as long as man has aged. A non-productive member of society can starve to death; be a burden on family; or if able – end it. Noble men and women end it. Leeches take advantage of family and make everyone suffer.

So what if idiots suicide? Fewer idiots and religious nutcases- better for everyone else. Its like survival of the fittest. They should kill themselves more often. And the movie is a good comedy. A drama parody.

Lars von Trier hasn´t taken a lot of things seriously in is career,
he does very good stuff which should always be considered
AT LEAST sarcastic…
but then again people who write about that guy these days simply
haven´t seen many (or even any) of his movies.

Dude, please do not bring religion into your argument. Religion as taught in modern times is not an accurate account of history and it actually does make mention of two apocalyptic events in the Old Testament being the Deluge and the Exodus out of Egypt. Go check your facts.
