I don't believe that Jessica, an atheist director, would pay tribute to religion and even theology with a painstaking film. The most she is interested in discussing is the hustle and bustle of all living beings who are chasing miracles in front of the shrine, that is, spirit and non-existence. spirit.
I even suspect that she has never even had this level of motivation. It is more like discussing how a typical modern tourism ecology can coexist in a more harmonious and friendly way with the religious and cultural resources handed down from history, and it is more prosperous with our country. The tourism industry of temples and Taoist temples is similar in effect and echoes from afar.
Going back to the miracle itself, we are familiar with it, from the sacrifice of Abraham's son in the Old Testament, to the blood of the Passover lamb in Exodus, to Moses' rod in the desperate situation, and then to the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, the New Testament... What they have in common is always the word "faith", not only to believe, but also to believe with all of your heart, and to trust yourself completely.
Every time a miracle occurs, it is another test of faith. It is a little bit of self-evidence that humans are crawling at the feet of God, praying devoutly, and God may not be willing to give alms. As we all know, as a great prophet, Jesus eventually became the Messiah, while Nostradamus was excavated by later generations to have the fourth dimension in his head from a scientific point of view. Copernicus is guilty like that, and at the very least he is an evil, deceitful leaker of secrets. What's the difference? It still lies in the word "faith", which can solve thousands of problems with one word.
As a pilgrimage site, Lourdes receives a huge number of tourists every year. People long for miracles and freedom from suffering. So is there a miracle in this place? have! Many times.
According to reliable records, on February 11, 1858, a 14-year-old shepherdess, Bernadette, came to pick up firewood near a cave on the bank of the Po River. The Virgin Mary suddenly appeared in front of her. Since then, the Virgin Mary has appeared 18 times at the same time. a place. One day, the little girl called the Virgin Mary: "Please go to the river to drink some water and wash your face!" When Bernadette dug the ground near the cave, the spring water spewed out, and there were many miracles of healing the disease with the spring water. As a result, Lourdes became the largest pilgrimage site for Catholics, and people with serious illnesses flocked to it.
Bernadette's body was placed in the chapel of the Abbey of Saint-Gerda in Nevers, southeast of Paris. Every year, 700 special trains and 400 planes arrive in Lourdes, bringing 5 million pilgrims from more than 150 countries.
I don't believe that there is confusion between belief and doubt in Lourdes , there is absolutely none, and you have no problem viewing this film as a religious tourism film.
