Belief

Generations have beliefs from generation to generation, and some beliefs can be passed on, while others are questioned, tested, and even destroyed. More often, when there is a lack of something, you will believe in something.

Faith is also the rock on which a person builds the world, no matter what you believe in; or if you don't believe in anything, this is also your belief. In today's information age, people's ability and desire to seize scientific knowledge and advocate free life are increasing day by day. As the main component of belief, religious belief, its influence is declining day by day, and it can no longer control people's general life. Just like the son in the film, a spirit of curbing beliefs and even rebellion made him believe in the injustice of dealing with things and encounters with his own strength, because he did not gain hope and energy from that belief. What I have experienced is only setbacks and losses.

In today's world, it is entirely up to individuals to decide what they believe in, at least in most areas. Moderate freedom of religious belief can be kind to the secular world and purify the mind. On the other hand, religious beliefs that are too harsh will only seriously restrict human nature, and in those places where religious beliefs are prohibited, people can only choose political beliefs.

The Devil All the Time quotes

  • Narrator: Four hundred or so people lived in Knockemstiff in 1957, nearly all of them connected by blood by one godforsaken calamity or another, be it lust, or necessity, or just plain ignorance.

  • Rev. Preston Teagardin: I've heard of cases in my reading about sin where someone got so sick... over some sin they felt they had committed that was so terrible that they... started imagining things. Back, I read a story about... people. Poor people. Barely able to write... thinking they're... the president or... or a Hollywood celebrity like Ava Gardner.

    Lenora: I... I don't understand what you're talking about.

    Rev. Preston Teagardin: The thing is, that's the part of it. The book says... it's not, not understanding. See, think about it. How... could I be the daddy... when all we done is spend time with the Lord?
