Science fiction explores afterlife, divinity, and belief systems in imagined worlds. Does it challenge religious orthodoxy, questioning faith and dogma, or expand spiritual imagination, offering new metaphors for divine experience? Should believers view sci-fi as threat or enrichment, or can storytelling bridge understanding between science, ethics, and spiritual contemplation?

Science fiction does not truly use religious concept, they try to implement their own ideas. For instance, the concept of avatar is a popular belief in Hinduism and James Cameroon used this concept in his movies, but in entirely different ways.

It often pushes people to rethink rigid beliefs by exploring possibilities beyond traditional doctrine. At the same time, it can deepen spiritual reflection by offering fresh symbols and questions. Most believers can treat it as enrichment, not danger, since good stories encourage thoughtful dialogue.
