The heartbreaking thing about this movie being self-banned by Disney is thatβ¦ this segment is a masterpiece. The actorβs performance, the integration of live action and animation, the intensity of the color. Itβs all spectacular.

Chuck Smith would be rolling in his grave if he could see his church ordaining women
Chuck Smith (founder of Calvary Chapel) taught against women teaching doctrine specifically. From Smith's video on 1 Timothy 2 (starts around 40 mins to the end):

PRIDE: The account in Daniel 4 describes a temporary, divinely imposed period of insanity (classically called boanthropy).
The Biblical Account (Daniel 4)
Nebuchadnezzar had a dream of a great tree cut down, leaving only the stump. Daniel interpreted it as applying to the king: he would be driven from human society, live with the beasts, and eat grass like an ox until he acknowledged that the Most High rules over human kingdoms.
Twelve months later, while boasting on the palace roofββIs not this great Babylon, which I have built by my mighty powerβ¦ for the glory of my majesty?ββa voice from heaven declared the kingdom departed from him. The text states:
Immediately the word was fulfilled against Nebuchadnezzar. He was driven from among men and ate grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven till his hair grew as long as eaglesβ feathers, and his nails were like birdsβ claws. (Daniel 4:33, ESV)
After βseven periods of timeβ (widely understood as seven years), he lifted his eyes toward heaven, his reason returned, and he praised the Most High, declaring that those who walk in pride God is able to humble (Daniel 4:34β37).
Medical/Psychological Description
This matches boanthropy (a specific form of zoanthropy or clinical lycanthropy): the delusion that one is an ox or cow, with corresponding behavior. Related conditions can include schizophrenia, psychotic depression, or bipolar disorder with psychotic features. Other historical suggestions have included porphyria or late-stage syphilis (general paresis), but the classic and most precise match is boanthropy.
Key distinctions from dementia:
β’ Temporary and of fixed duration.
β’ Fully reversible with complete restoration of reason and rule.
β’ Focused animal-like behavioral change rather than progressive memory loss and cognitive decline.
Historical Notes
Official Babylonian royal inscriptions do not record the episode (unsurprising for a humiliating state secret). There is a noticeable gap in detailed personal activity records during part of his reign. Fragmentary cuneiform material and the Dead Sea Scrollsβ Prayer of Nabonidus (a later king afflicted for seven years, involving a Jewish figure) provide parallels that some scholars see as background or possible corroboration; others view the Daniel account as adapting motifs from Nabonidus traditions.
Theological Point
The narrativeβs purpose is clear: God humbled the proud king so he would know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men and gives it to whom He will. When Nebuchadnezzar acknowledged this, his reason and kingdom were restored. The story illustrates that pride itself is a form of madness, while acknowledging Godβs sovereignty restores clear-mindedness.

What?! The church wants to fight over women preachers and the timing of the rapture of the church?! NOW? 4 days after the election? This election?? IS THERE NOT A CAUSE??!!!!!! While these guys wet their skinny jeans over any excuse they can find not to be unified, the church needs to unify and fight for our NATION. Whereβs your call to action for the NATION by the church? Address currant events and the state of what has happened and what God says about it. Will you help your hurting congregations and tell them how to be full of faith in the midst of scary things? Will u preach and demonstrate the importance of bravery and loyalty to Jesus now? What about having hope for your future, your stance against Islam, or living by a different spirit than the world we live in? What about the obvious injustice of the voting system and lack of Christian voters? What will your churches do in the midst of the persecution that is coming? Do they know how to walk with Jesus in the midst of a socialist growing culture? Do they know the local, regional and federal civil servants that are not hostile to the church and to their freedom? Are u going to be a church leader and a generational shepherd or are u going to join the dark side for the sake of your latest pet peeve? LEAD AND FEED IN FULL DEMONSTRATION OF THE SPIRIT AND OF POWER or go sell tacos from a pick up truck.

Only citizens should vote in American elections. Every ballot cast by a noncitizen cancels out the vote of a lawful American.
Washington state should hand over its voter rolls and let investigators do their jobs. States that stonewall federal investigators are asking voters to trust that their elections are secure. Their word alone isnβt good enough.
Breaking: First Assistant US DOJ Attorneys for Washington state, Neil Floyd and Pete Serrano, announce that investigators have found over 400 cases of noncitizens voting in state and federal elections.
The DOJ prosecutors claim that WA state is refusing to cooperate and hand over voter rolls. They believe the number of noncitizens voting is much higher β in the thousands.
