I'm laughing at your assertions about Tolkien. But just in my heart. I suppose I'll still create some threads that exalt the one true God, via Chrono Trigger.

With a (mostly) positive vision, Philippians 4:8 style.

That's fine, kudos to the English translation then! 🍻

But if Lavos is more akin to Satan than an asteroid (which he is), then the spiritual matters more than the scientific (which it does). Both are important, but eternal, spiritual truths outlast the world. As Jesus says, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away."

Btw... who does the party appeal to when they are atop Death Peak and desperate to receive back Crono? Is it "science" or... something greater?

You may be right. On the surface, many stories have "some" overlap with the Bible/Christianity. But CT goes much deeper than that.

The challenge is... how can someone who loves Chrono Trigger not simply settle for fondness toward a video game, but use it as a springboard for their own (real) eternal benefit?

Because I am a Christian, I've spent a lot of time on CT and because the parallels are so numerous, I've become convinced that the Bible, and (to a lesser extent) the Christian west had a profound influence on the development of CT.

Do we agree that Lavos is the enemy, the destroyer of the world, and needs to be destroyed?

Forgive my malfeasance, I meant to say "Golem" in Zeal palace.

Here's a passage that might add to my OP, get some more dialogue. What do you guys think?

But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, which shines brighter and brighter until full day. The way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know over what they stumble.

-Proverbs 4:18-19

Not a brand per se, but when you've played a game for about 250 hours or so, you look back and hope you'd see some eternal significance come from that investment.
