Yet another post referring the spiritual connotations of Doctor Who:
So, the last season with Matt Smith, they introduce the production of "the Flesh", an invention of man to produce "fleshly" robots that can take our place in work situations, while we sit back and relax....hmm, letting our flesh take over our hearts, wills, minds while they have free-will over our lives? The flesh holds all the memories, feelings, thoughts, etc of the regular human!
And, inevitably, the humans treat the flesh as second-class or lower than second-class, casting them aside when a version doesn't work properly or whatnot, which leads to anger and a rising up...the flesh rearing its ugly head!
In some fashion, the Doctor is cloned into a fleshly version, so there is the real version and the "fleshly" version. (For viewers, the coolest part is when the flesh of the Doctor forms and he goes through his entire history of past doctors..."You want some jelliebellies?)
So, as I said, the flesh rises up and threatens to destroy not only the scientists who have been working on this project, but the whole earth...and once again, the Doctor has to save the world he loves (For God so loved the world...)
And here's the thing: His fleshly self sacrifices himself, as in, he takes on the likeness of sinful flesh...
So, the message of the day, through the power of our "Great Physician" we can overcome the nature of our wickedness, our flesh, and move on to all that is awaiting us....the great adventure in the sky!
He who has ears to hear, let him hear
