A movie about faith, about growth.
I find that I have gradually been able to appreciate the beliefs and pursuits of others from my own perspective and observe their evolution.
One’s beliefs are changing
There are all kinds of beliefs in the world, and that is the meaning of everyone's existence.
Everyone's belief formation is closely related to the environment in which they come into contact. Poverty makes people yearn for prosperity and pressures people to yearn for freedom. The changes in Changez in the play come from this.
A person's belief cannot be left to freedom. Its firmness and purity are not innate, and we need to take care of it carefully. Therefore, we need to get in touch with things that are good for our faith, and stay away from the factors that shake our faith.
How to view changes in beliefs
On how to evaluate a belief.
Intuitively, there should be no distinction between high and low beliefs. But whether there is a difference between advanced and backward beliefs, and what kind of differences exist between different types of beliefs.
Since beliefs are based on our worldview, there should be differences in beliefs based on real, false, partial or more comprehensive worldviews.
These are things that I don't understand yet.
Open faith and black and white faith
These young men were engaged in their own valuation.
Just like Underwood Samson.
Moving human beings in and out of binary columns.
Worker, reliability.
American, Pakistani.
Martyr, infidel. Alive, dead.
I was tired of the reduction.
I was tired of deciding from a distant perch
the fate of people I did not know.
Yes, I am Pakistani.
Yes, I am a Muslim.
Yes, I am an opponent of your country's assault on mine.
But that's not all that I am.
We are both more than these things, Bobby.
I've never taken up arms and I never will.
This is an explanation of Changez in the play, showing two different forms of belief.
And about the spread of faith
When people are young, or when their worldview has not yet formed, by instilling relevant concepts into them, it is easy to lead them to form corresponding beliefs, no matter how outrageous their beliefs appear to us.
