This documentary can be said to subvert my deep-rooted concepts.
What is the exact definition of faith? What is the basis for the existence of faith? The positive and negative functions of faith?
I have always believed that Chinese people have no faith and are more likely to make mistakes in certain things than those who have religious beliefs, and are more likely to lose themselves in the path of life. To a certain extent, I believed that religion was a very correct thing at that time. Religion can become a powerful driving force in people's lives.
This film gave me a new understanding. Religion actually incorporates the element of divinity in education, using the unknown to explain the unknown. The beneficial effects of religion can be accomplished by education, and education can technically avoid the negative consequences of belief in religion. Some people like to use "lack of faith" to explain some of the inferiorities of the Chinese. I think this is nothing more than a lack of proper education. In today's economic conditions, religion is no longer necessary, but a cultural spread. The functions of religion can be replaced by more scientific methods.
Few people in China believe in religion. Compared with Guanyin Bodhisattva and the like, we believe in the asylum of our deceased ancestors and seek more confidence than Thaksin. This is due to China’s unique geographical advantages. Without careful analysis, the economic foundation determines the superstructure. I feel that Marx’s words are more meaningful.
The beginning of this tragedy was the sinful human nature, and it was the church that expanded the tragedy. Except for certain natural phenomena, most things can be controlled by people. Religion itself is not wrong, but people are wrong.
It is better to be self-control than to be controlled.
