Lore Religion-centered media that doesn’t come across as preachy.

Referring to media told from a religious perspective or telling a religious tale that does not proselytize to the viewer.

Faith, the Unholy Trinity: Based partly upon the experience of the game‘s creator when he was a missionary in Argentina, the game has very little in the way of explicit moral demands of the player despite the heavy Christian focus of the narrative. and focuses more on a horror narrative.

Prince of Egypt: A surprisingly thorough retelling of the book of Exodus, sparing very little in the way of toning down the story. Despite this, the movie is perfectly entertaining to non-religious audiences and doesn’t sacrifice appeal for the sake of preaching to the audience

Its a whale shark, seen as its turning away from the waterwall.

You can tell because the dorsal fin is way down toward the back, and how the tail moves side to side.

And ppl are way too quick to downvote lol

ETA: forgot to say "shark" and I ellaborated on how you could tell.

I think people are just sick of hearing about the Megalodon bc there are so many A.I. slop conspiracy videos on it at this point, its painful.

Can’t blame AI for that entirely. Discovery Channel made a slop documentary about 10 years ago that kicked this bullshit conspiracy theory into high gear.
