"the powerpuff girls represent abrahamic religion in its three aspects. the proverbial first-born, blossom, is judaism. the emotional, guilt-ridden, yet joyous bubbles is christianity. and the temper-mental, violent, and last-named, buttercup, is islam.

"the film that follows offers us a short history of world religion. the three girls romp playfully through a city in a game of tag. regardless of the damage they leave in their wake, they are destroying the metropolis through their frolics. we come to understand that the spread of the religions, their battles for supremacy, the sword-swinging missionaries, the crusades, the inquisition¡ªall these were merely the games religions play. yes, they left uncounted thousands dead, but it was all a misunderstanding! all they really wanted to do was love."
