Hunger Games - MOCKINGJAY : Satanic Deception at work - Mockingjay is Mocking "J" ( Mocking JESUS )
EDIT:
Because so many people went on a tangent about Jesus. Let me simplify it:
Think about this;
Why call it a Mockingjay? Why not a repeatingjay? Or an echoingjay? Or a copyingjay? Or a parrotjay? Or anything else that goes with echoing or copying?
Why M O C K I N G J A Y?
Who are they mocking?
Or, to be specific, WHAT are they mocking?
When you mock, you reduce a value.
So, what are they trying to elevate by mocking your spriitual powers?
MOCKING JESUS is not about mocking a hairy bearded man dressed in red and blue. Its about mocking YOUR SPIRITUAL CONNECTIONS.
SO if you have understood this part, you will know that it is doing something to reduce your own spiritual value. A reduction in your spiritual value is dangerous, as the vacuum will be filled by other things.

A "mockingjay," in the context of the story, is some genetic hybrid bird that is a cross between a mockingbird and a "jabberjay," another variant of bird within the context of the story.
Is there such a bird as a repeatingbird or an echoingbird? Even in the story?

If you read the books you would knnow.
I didn't read the books, and even I know.
You are a know-nothing.
Oh, for the love of...
It's a fucking bird , you dolt.
Is it really possible for people to be this shamelessly stupid? Please, someone tell me this is a Poe.
Save my ever-dwindling faith in humanity.
Hello, I'm from Texas. May I introduce you to our State Bird? It's the mocking bird.
(Why the hell anyone decided to make that the state bird, I have no clue.)
I don't even follow the series and I know it's a bird. Even before someone who read the series clarified that it was a fictional bird for me my first assumption was that it was a type of bird (or a word for mockingbird in a different dialect). Not once did I think "Ah, they must be mocking Jesus!". To be fair, having heard the synopsis of the story I could see it being a mockery of Tea Party Christianity, but that in and of itself is a mockery of Jesus.
...y'know, if you're going to complain about that particular book series, there's a much juicier angle involved about xians being thrown to the lions, and all that. what with the fictional setting being an obvious pastiche of imperial Rome, y'see.
I thought the movie was fairly tacky and shallow even though it tries to be profound for a teen film (although a nice spectacle like many blockbuster films these days). You must be utterly insane if the main thing you took home from the film was that it was "mocking Jesus" based on the title.
Oh wait, you've obviously never seen any of the movies nor read the books, you're just another dumbass on the internet.

Actually... Ibuki's pretty sure the book's called Mockingjay because a Mockingjay is a bird while the other jays abhie-chan mentioned don't exist and don't roll off the tongue nearly as well.
And honestly, Ibuki's surprised that this quote wasn't from David-chan. It seems like the kind of rant that would be usually right up his alley.
Well, because, in the books, a mockingjay is a cross between a mockingbird and a jabberjay (birds bred by the Capitol to spy on rebels and then repeat their speech to them). It's a symbol of rebellion, as the only reason they exist was because of rebels outsmarting the Capitol by feeding the jabberjays lies.
I haven't even read the Hunger Games and I understand this better than you.
And do you seriously think Jesus of Nazareth was the only person in history to have a name beginning with "J"? It could be "mocking Jay-Z", "mocking Jennifer Lawrence", "mocking Justin Timberlake".
Hell, even I didn't read the books or watch the movies I'd have assumed a Mockingjay would be some kind of hybrid of a mockingbird and a bluejay. Either that or someone's codename.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
"He's expired and gone to meet his maker. He's a stiff, bereft of life, he rests in peace. If you hadn't have nailed him to the perch he'd be pushing up the daisies. He's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-parrotjay!”
"Think about this;

Because all of those names are stupid and none of them roll off the tongue as well as 'Mockingjay'. Oh, and by the way, NOT EVERYTHING ON EARTH IS ABOUT JESUS.
Because in the books the common mocking bird interbred with the genetically engineered jabberjay. Hence mockingjay. I agree that its a shitty name but come on.
I guess its not just the bible, they just have trouble with reading and retention in general.
If you had read the books(which you didn't, as usual), you'd know that the name is a portomanteau of the words mockingbird and jabberbay. The first one exists un nature and has that name, whether you like it or not. Besides, whatever name they had, you'd have a problem, so?
Confused?
