Conclusion​

Hopefully after viewing my website, you will see how these religious themes are portrayed in The 100 and in pop culture. These themes of Christianity such as good vs evil, sacrifice, believing in a higher power and the symbol of Noah's Ark were obvious to me when watching this show, so I knew it would be the perfect example for this project. As mentioned, I found it interesting that a show that is heavily science-based referenced religion so much, however, it works to show how religion and science co-exist in our society. The religion vs science debacle has been discussed for decades, but as is exhibited in The 100, science and spirituality are both very important to the structure of societies, and we ultimately need both to have peace.

I hope you enjoyed reading my website and that this made you want to watch this series!
