So I can't help but feel that the topic of religious is a bit big, or that it is too impetuous. Due to the time spent in various sects, some problems cannot be explored. For example, go deep into the core figures of major religions. As you can imagine, this will be difficult, as the experience at the Vatican illustrates well. Also, I think it's too small for the cannabis religion and Scientology. The director probably included them because he wanted the film to be more comprehensive. Perhaps the best way to appear comprehensive is to interview and analyze the representative religions of China, India, and Japan; such as Buddhism, Hinduism, and Shintoism.
At first I thought that maybe because of funding reasons, I gave up interviewing these representative religions of the East. Later, I thought that as a person who grew up in Catholicism, of course, I have a lot to say about Catholicism and Christianity; and of course, the Muslim world, the natural enemy of Christendom, does not need to say anything. Here I would like to add a sentence, does anyone feel like me that the Christian world and the Muslim world are similar in nature? At least I think so, but in modern times, the economy of the Muslim world has not been doing very well, which has led to the stagnation of social development. . So it looks tattered in every way. Thus, this natural geographical and historical similarity leads the author to have a more say in both religions and the religions derived from them. And for those very different religions and religious organizations in the East, they have to do a lot of homework to discuss them. And because there are so many countries involved, they have to do more various preparations, which makes the interview very difficult.
In the end, I think that although this film has certain limitations, in general it still reveals something like a human being. It is recommended to make a sequel about Eastern religions. . hehe
