Dogma	comment	In 1999, Kevin Smith brought The View Askewniverse into the realm of religion with Dogma. May God have mercy on our souls.Late one night, abortion clinic employee Bethany (Linda Fiorentino) receives a visit from The Metatron (Alan Rickman), the angel who acts as the voice of God ("Any documented occasion when some yahoo claims God has spoken to them, they're speaking to me"note Or they're talking to themselves). The Metatron tasks Bethany with a holy mission: she must visit a Catholic church in New Jersey on a specific day to prevent disgraced angels Bartleby (Ben Affleck) and Loki (Matt Damon) from taking advantage of a special absolution ceremony being held there. The ceremony would grant forgiveness to anyone for any sin, and because the Bible says God must hold true in Heaven what holds true on Earth, this ceremony would allow the angels to return to Heaven.The angels' potential absolution presents a big problem: God had specifically barred them from ever returning to Heaven, so their dogmatic absolution would disprove God's infallibility, and thereby bring an end to all existence. Since God cannot directly interfere with the angels' plan, Bethany must do the job herself.Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith) turn up as "prophets" sent to guide Bethany, and the trio later finds allies in disgruntled apostle Rufus (Chris Rock) and muse-turned-stripper Serendipity (Salma Hayek)—but even with God's blessing on their side, the group's mission grows more difficult thanks to someone working behind the scenes to ensure the absolution of Bartleby and Loki...Around the time of the film's release, Kevin Smith heard of a group of people planning to picket Dogma at a theater near his hometown, so he decided to go and help picket his own film. When he arrived, less than two dozen people had actually showed up for the "protest", including the reporter and camera crew for a local TV station who recognized him.

Dogma / int_1964a1b5	comment	Holiday Pardon: The plot revolves around a special absolution ceremony happening in a Catholic (at least the film's version of it) cathedral in Redbank, New Jersey. Two Fallen Angels set off on a journey to exploit this because the ceremony would grant forgiveness to anyone for any sin, and because the Bible says God must hold true in Heaven what holds true on Earth, this ceremony would allow the angels to return to Heaven. However, the angels' potential absolution presents a big problem: God had specifically barred them from ever returning to Heaven, so their dogmatic absolution would disprove God's infallibility — and bring an end to all existence. The protagonist is given the Call to prevent this from happening.

Dogma / int_5e7163c9	comment	Alternative Character Interpretation: Invoked on behalf of numerous Biblical concepts; the characters in the film are quite different from how typical depictions go. God for example turns out to be One of Us; a big fan of skeeball. And God gives all his tickets and winnings to local children. What a deity! The Bible is interpreted in a decidedly un-Catholic way. (Specifically, no, indulgences do not work the way the movie says they do, but the Protestant interpretation of Matthew 6:19-21 explains how Dogma's indulgences work. This is lampshaded in the airport scene.) Of Hell, instead of being a place of damnation for horrible people, it is for people with huge Guilt Complexes who believe that God can never forgive them, so they opted to take eternal suffering for their guilt. Azrael says it became a place of eternal damnation because humans thought they deserved it. Before that, it was just a place where God had no presence, which sucked, but it wasn't torture.

Dogma / int_a27c0c2c	type	Artistic License â€“ Religion
Dogma / int_a27c0c2c	comment	Artistic License – Religion: The concept of Plenary Indulgence is portrayed completely wrong. Multiple characters who should know better (angels and a cardinal) describe it as a clean slate, and the forgiveness and removal of all sins. It is not. Plenary Indulgence is the removal of the need for temporal punishments of sins that have already been forgiven. It does not remove nor wipe out a person's sins. One might argue that Bartleby and Loki failing to understand the concept properly is part of the joke. Also, Metatron calls himself a "seraphim" and reveals two wings. The singular of "seraphim" is "seraph," and they have six wings. Interestingly, a lot of the film's plot runs on the fact that Azrael, through Bartleby and Loki, is intentionally exploiting loopholes and using everyone's beliefs against them. The Cardinal is using the concept of Plenary Indulgences wrong, the whole "God is infallible" idea being proved incorrect has no basis in any official teachings, and half the stated rules and consequences happened (in-universe at least) centuries after the Bible began to be written. It's a humongous Batman Gambit running on nobody being 100% in the know about what was and wasn't possible, with the only omnipotent being in existence (God Him-/Herself) being stuck in a coma. The rite of purification to make holy water is a little more involved than making the sign of the cross over some water. Granted, Bethany has that whole divine descendant thing going for her, but still. In the Bible, it's OK for the humans to hear God's voice, but no human can see God the Father's face and stay alive. In the film, it's inverted.

Dogma / int_b0cd3349	comment	The concept of Plenary Indulgence is portrayed completely wrong. Multiple characters who should know better (angels and a cardinal) describe it as a clean slate, and the forgiveness and removal of all sins. It is not. Plenary Indulgence is the removal of the need for temporal punishments of sins that have already been forgiven. It does not remove nor wipe out a person's sins. One might argue that Bartleby and Loki failing to understand the concept properly is part of the joke. Also, Metatron calls himself a "seraphim" and reveals two wings. The singular of "seraphim" is "seraph," and they have six wings.

This was fully explained in a deleted scene where it was revealed that Hell was originally "just" the absence of God; because humans believe that God would never forgive them for their sins and (subconsciously) beg to be punished, Hell gradually transformed into a "suffering pit" where horrible things happen—things so horrible, even the fallen angels can't stand the howling of the damned.

The origins of the Mooby franchise, as related by Loki, include allusions to Mickey Mouse (the bi-coastal theme parks), McDonald's (the fast food restaurants), Barney And Friends (created by a school teacher) and various doll lines for little girls like Barbie and My Little Pony (whose creators are mostly known only to fans of the respective franchises). A fairly obscure one: The Golgothan's first line — "Not born, shit into existence." — is taken verbatim from Grant Morrison's Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth. It pertains to a very disgusting-looking Clayface in that, if you're wondering. The next line — "No man of woman born" — is an odd shout out to Macbeth. Silent Bob throws the angels off the train and explains his actions to a concerned man who witnessed the event. Bartleby gives a shout out to The Incredible Hulk before he kills a police officer. Immediately after Rufus falls to Earth, Jay speaks up standing over the body. After God revives Bethany at the end: A poster for Darkstalkers 3 can be seen.

Dogma / int_e54326a2	type	Hell
Dogma / int_e54326a2	comment	Of Hell, instead of being a place of damnation for horrible people, it is for people with huge Guilt Complexes who believe that God can never forgive them, so they opted to take eternal suffering for their guilt. Azrael says it became a place of eternal damnation because humans thought they deserved it. Before that, it was just a place where God had no presence, which sucked, but it wasn't torture.

Bethany turns him down, but Jay persists: "What if there's a bomb about to go off or something and we're all gonna die? Would you fuck me then?" Mostly to shut him up, she agrees. Flash forward all the way to the end of the movie, when Bartleby is close to un-making reality, and Jay drags Bethany behind some overturned equipment to make good on the deal. Early in the movie, Rufus rants about the Bible being edited to say that Jesus was white, when he was, in fact, black. Then much later in the movie, Rufus reveals that Bethany is the great-great-great-etc.-grand niece of Jesus. Then, stoned out of his mind, Jay responds "Wait, does that make Bethany part black?" And again at the end of the credits in the DVD. Jay: "So, Bethany... part black?"

Bartleby's sole non-jerkass moment in the film is stopping Loki from gunning down the woman in the boardroom whose only fault was not saying "God bless you" after Loki sneezed.
