( some of the character appear both in the present time and also in the 1600 ) obviously reincarnate . god be an impersonal force . animal life and plant life be all the same . ( this be pantheism ) . redfield have try to mix eastern mysticism with western christianty . his attempt at syncretism may fool or confuse those who be not seeker of truth but this movie be a feeble excuse for any ultimate reality . a the ad in the old berkeley barb use to say for $ 10 . 00 will show you how to start your own religion . a one famous prophet have say and use the force luke .
