Which is important, truth or temporary peace?

There are a lot of religious things in the film, but the film tells it more clearly. This movie feels dizzy in some places. Even if the sarcophagus is finally found and the DNA comparison is performed, it can only show that she is a descendant of Mary Magdalene. Although there are documents indicating that she was once the wife of Jesus, it is not certain that she is a descendant of Jesus. Ah; besides, Sir Lei Tibing’s ultimate goal is just to prove the truth of the facts. At this time, Robert Langdon and Sophie are also looking for the truth of the matter together. Why do they want to monopolize the cryptex, as long as they don’t expose themselves. , These two people will naturally find out the truth of the matter with his help, the purpose is the same and there is no problem of benefit distribution, why should he trouble himself, is it not good to sit back and enjoy the benefits? Is it just to frame up two religious followers? Isn’t it the same when I finally found this hand?
Robert Langdon is a religious believer to a certain extent, and the biggest contradiction between him and Sir Lei Tibing lies in this. To a certain extent, Robert is a submissive and a little pragmatic person. He doesn't believe in the wild history or How willing to pursue the ultimate truth of the matter, for him, since history has been like this, and now it has achieved the goal of peace, there is no need to go over these old accounts, as he finally said to Sophie, "He forgot We study the reason of history—to stop the killing. "The important thing is what Sophie thinks. It doesn’t matter whether Jesus is a man or a god. The important thing is that he is already great and has created a great history. What if a miracle has been created". To a certain extent, Lei Tibin is more eager for the truth. He hopes to make the truth public, even if the truth is cruel and dark, even if it will cause some people’s beliefs to collapse, and even lead to open confrontations between the two factions. I hope to return history to justice and give those who have been killed innocently and those who believe in Magdalene a fair chance. In fact, for these two ideas, it is sometimes difficult to say which is better and the other is worse. This is slightly similar to the final scene of "The Watcher", but it is different. If you personally choose, you should support the Watcher. The final decision, and opposed Robert Langdon's approach. Robert Langdon’s final dialogue with Sophie seemed neutral, but in fact it felt like he wanted to conceal the facts and maintain the current so-called calm. As for those persecuted retreats, it seemed to him that they were all things in the past, and They are only a few, and they can be discarded by the vast majority of Orthodox Christians. It is hard to imagine that a researcher of historical symbols like Robert would have this kind of thinking, not caring about the truth of the matter, but to measure temporary gains and losses. This is more like a politician than Sophie’s grandfather Jacques Saunière said. He is a police officer in history, and he feels that these two performances are somewhat contradictory to a certain extent.
