In one of the opening scenes of Dogma, a recent Kevin Smith movie, Loki
interprets the Walrus and the Carpenter as religious figures who attract
followers (the oysters) and then eat them. With this interpretation he
dissuades a nun from her life's calling, convincing her of his feigned
atheism: those religious figures are just leading us to doom, and are not in
support of or embody an diety at all...even though Loki is an angel,
technically, and has, as Bartelby points out, been in the presence and even
sopken with God himself. He makes connections with Buddha, Jesus, and other
historical religious figures...
