In the name of love, hide sin

At one o'clock in the morning, such a sharp soundtrack came from the headphones, and I couldn't help but feel chills behind my back. On the surface, it had a strong religious meaning, but it was actually more of a concentration of metaphysics and theology, with a little violent aesthetics.

For everyone's death, I think it is destined, except for Thomasin, who was dubbed "witch", her departure is more like the redemption of the soul, because she is innocent. Others, all in the name of God's love, are full of sin, and the witch who lives will eventually allow them to redeem themselves.

Each faith gives a different inspiration:

"What is the original sin of man?"

"Adam's sin is so deeply rooted in my heart that my fallen nature cannot be wiped out"

"What is fallen nature?"

"Without grace, yielding to sin, yielding again and again..."

I hope that every demon in hell or on earth can realize his original sin and be redeemed one day...

The Witch quotes

  • [first lines]

    William: [before the court] What went we out into this wilderness to find? Leaving our country, kindred, our fathers' houses? We have travailed a vast ocean. For what? For what?

    Governor: We must ask thee to be silent!

    William: Was it not for the pure and faithful dispensation of the Gospels, and the Kingdom of God?

    Old Slater: No more! We are *your* judges, and not you ours!

    William: I cannot be judged by false Christians, for I have done nothing, save preach Christ's true Gospel.

    Governor: Must you continue to dishonor the laws of the commonwealth and the church with your prideful conceit?

    William: If my conscience sees it fit.

    Governor: Then shall you be banished out of this plantation's liberties!

    William: I would be glad of it.

    Governor: Then take your leave, and trouble us no further.

    William: How sadly hath The Lord testified against you.

    William: [turning to leave] Katherine...

  • Thomasin: [walking gradually toward her sister] I be the witch of the wood.

    Mercy: Liar! Liar!

    Thomasin: I am.

    Caleb: List' not to her, Mercy.

    Thomasin: I am that very witch. When I sleep my spirit slips away from my body and dances naked with The Devil. That's how I signed his book.

    Mercy: No!

    Thomasin: He bade me bring him an unbaptized babe, so I stole Sam, and I gave him to my master. And I'll make any man or thing else vanish I like.
