Tehanu, certainly. But even in Ged-centric novels, the themes of life, death, and afterlife are very non-Christian and that has not historically made it on screen.
"Aargragaah. It mean lit’rally der time when you see dem little pebbles and you jus’ know dere’s gonna be a great big landslide on toppa you and it already too late to run. Dat moment, dat’s aagragaah.”

Lightspeed Magazine has The New Atlantis in full online.
It's a 1975 story that I read in the 00s and I remember thinking that while powerful, it took the themes of the day past the logical extreme. How optimistic of me.

I fixed it, thanks, Inanna!
That was so weird, because I haven't had the ship article open since the accident, and I've dumped my cookies since.
