I'm watching Black Lightning right now, and am enjoying the show so far. I'm in Season 2, atm, but I'm not that familiar with the DC universe. Are there gods and what not, like Thor, in this universe? I've listened to Annisa constantly say "This is a blessing from God" and Jennifer saying "How do you know it's not from the devil?
It makes sense that religion is a big part of black culture, but for me personally, I find it weird that in these shows there is still a thought process of "Black Lightning(or any super) and then God almighty" in terms of power. With the Marvel universe, which I'm more familiar with, it makes sense with Thor and Dr. Strange showing the mystical and spiritual side of the universe. How do you all feel about people still believing religion and an almighty power when there are super heroes running around?
I just saw a scene where a mother told her sim she wanted nothing to do with him because he was of the devil and her real son was dead. This makes sense coming from our perspective, but if you ha e super hero's like Black Lightning running around, I feel like you should be more accepting of general craziness like this.
