And it’s fantasy, so there’s magic and demons and gods and talking puppets. But for crying out loud, if you’re looking for spiritual lessons, you don’t find them in a TV show; and reading, let alone *writing* a book on the subject is one huge, pompous, self-involved waste of time. And it’s Joss, not Josh. Bleeding dumbed-down postmodern cultural wasteland we live in....Tuesday 25 May 2004, by Anonymous : BtVS and Angel are both really good shows with good stories. Good stories tend to tell us something or offer insight on things in our lives. I don’t think its so far fetched to analyse the spiritual themes in the Buffyverse, but I seriously doubt that anyone should use these shows to do a kind of "spirituality for beginners" exercise. These shows are great to watch and do sometimes offer an interesting world-view but it isn’t a full-on spiritual show, it doesn’t offer a complete guide to life and so shouldn’t be treated as such.
