Roger Avary discusses the concept of "spells" and "magic" as narrative programs used to control the human mind. He contrasts "bad spells" that promote disintegration with "good spells" that promote humanity. Avary praises Dallas Jenkins and the series The Chosen for successfully telling a story centered on forgiveness, which he considers a much harder feat than depicting revenge.

She argues that many people, including Trump, may lack the "eyes to see" the spiritual reality of the situation.
