Love and forgiveness

"A man confessed to you that he poisoned the holy wine. Would you still go out for mass? (Drink the holy wine for Mass)" "Jesus is not humane enough, he is too sure, heaven, afterlife, he is sure The absolute existence of these things." "sitting in my room, sweeting. I turn to him for help. I seen a naked man... Utterly desirable. I turn to him for help and he just makes it worse. up there in my room... That's my Gethsemane (the place where Jesus was betrayed and arrested by Judas)" In the end, although some people stayed, no one accepted his sacrament, only the girl who "he didn't save" accepted and embraced him and cried. . At this moment the priest seemed to be redeemed. The priest's salvation and self-salvation under the secular world, he is besieged in faith and desire. He must first affirm himself. "Ask yourself to those who are innocent, throw stones at them", not to mention that this is not a sin! What is the nature of Catholicism? Is it the so-called dogma stipulated in the Bible, or the love and forgiveness of human nature. Morality should first respect and protect human will and freedom. How many pseudo-morals still exist in the modern world!

    The whole film shows the inner contradiction of the protagonist very well, and Father Matthew is also a highlight. The development of the story is helpless but very realistic, and the last scene is really heartwarming.

    You just broke a man made law. God loves all. It's pretty good consider it was made in 1994. I don't understand why it's so difficult for people to accept homosexuals, especially for church goers. There's nothing in the Bible says that homosexuality is a sin.

  • Father Greg Pilkington: [Father Redstone has been addressing Father Pilkington in Latin] You've lost me, I'm afraid.

    Father Redstone: I said: I know all about you. You're a boil on the body of Christ. A monstrous, living, breathing boil, ready to erupt at any moment into pus, and blood, and stench.

    Father Greg Pilkington: I think I preferred it in Latin.
