[petelamana (OP)]

Okay, I know that this forum is for considered convos about serious topics, and I have contributed to many.  However, since it is Sunday, a day to kick back, I thought I would jump into the shallow end of the pool...

In both the original 1954 Japanese Gojira film and the 1956 American Godzilla, King of the Monsters! version Godzilla is defeated, actually killed.  (Which is absurd, since later movies showed that he is essentially immortal.)  So, my question is... If he/she (Godzilla seems to be either, depending upon the situation) was the result of nuclear testing in the south Pacific, and was killed in the first movie, how did he resurrect for a sequel?  I mean, I get that he is "God"zilla, but devine?  I don't think so.  And, it was never established that each nuclear detonation would result in a Godzilla-like creature, so...how did he return?

I apologize for the goofiness of this question, but it is said that the more complex the mind the great the need for play.  Unfortunately, that doesn't necessarily apply in my case as my mind is probably on the same level of complexity as Lego blocks.
