Discovering Truth at the Movies: Planet of the Apes

Today, we’ll take a look at the movie Planet of the Apes, in which an astronaut lands on a planet ruled by apes. There are people on this planet, but they are hunted and enslaved by the apes. At first, he thinks he’s on a different planet. But, finally, through a series of events, he comes to realize that this is earth sometime in his far-distant future. We’ll consider both the 1968 original and 2001 remake to help us set up a question that C.S. Lewis tackled in Chapter 4 of Mere Christianity: Where do we get the idea “It’s Not Fair?” We’ll tackle this question: Who Is the Law Giver?
