Very serious discussion of religion, human nature, mixed with the background of current affairs. Excessive use of beautiful lines to express intent without moving people.

shallow. Faith as a way out of suffering is now as illusory whether it is upheld or destroyed, and the attitude of each character reflected in the central weight of the priest as a symbolic entity in the story is enough to shake its persuasion. The power gap (McDonald's humor is not very helpful for this) also directly limits the film's deeper exploration of human nature.
Father Leary: Jesus Christ! What happened to you?
Father James Lavelle: Brendan Lynch.
Father Leary: Brendan Lynch? He is a Buddhist!
Father James Lavelle: So what if he is a fucking Buddhist? You think Buddhists don't beat people up? You think Buddhists don't fuck their kids like everyone else?
Father Leary: You are obviously very upset.
Father James Lavelle: Tibetians spit on blind people in the street! They are killing albinos in Africa! You are so fucking naive!
Father Leary: Please do not curse at me, Father. I think it would be best to countinue this conversation in the morning, when you are sober.
Father James Lavelle: Why you are a fucking priest at all? You should be a fucking accountant or a fucking insurance man!
Father James Lavelle: The limits of His mercy have not been set.
