Is patience and forgiveness the salvation?

The English film title "Calvary" is the place where Jesus died in the legend. The film should be called The Passion of the Priest. Father James is a good pastor and is pious and upright. One day a confessor came and told James that he would kill him because he had never done anything wrong. Like Jesus, among so many people who bear the burden of sin, the one who paid the price is the most harmless one. The topics of sin, faith, understanding, and forgiveness run through the film. It is not through the positive description of how tall a priest with faith is, but through the sins of people. Everyone has their own sins. As a guilty person, how to strengthen his faith and help other guilty people is where the priest is confused. There is a dialogue at the end of the film; the murderer asks the priest, the dog is dead, are you sad? The priest said yes, the murderer asked, did you cry? The priest said yes, the murderer asked, then you learned that other pastors have done bad things to the poor child, so many bad things over the years, have you cried? The pastor was silent, the murderer repeated, I ask you questions, are you crying? The priest said, no, the murderer said, that's right. After the priest did not finish speaking, the murderer shot. People only have the deepest feelings about what happened to them. Everyone has different experiences and cannot feel the same. Therefore, it is almost impossible to truly understand. If you can’t really understand, any so-called salvation is just to tell how to endure and feel after you endure. Tell others how to be patient with the same deep feeling. Is patience and forgiveness the salvation? ! Is intolerance and unforgiveness a sin? !

I don't understand, but the Irish style is very Nordic.

8.3 The opposition between the people and the church reflects the spiritual confusion of people in modern society ← a piece of fucking cliche Brendan Gleeson did a good job ← other people have said that but since this year I really like Kelly more and more Reilly ← not a good one, but original

Father Leary: Jesus Christ! What happened to you?
Father James Lavelle: Brendan Lynch.
Father Leary: Brendan Lynch? He is a Buddhist!
Father James Lavelle: So what if he is a fucking Buddhist? You think Buddhists don't beat people up? You think Buddhists don't fuck their kids like everyone else?
Father Leary: You are obviously very upset.
Father James Lavelle: Tibetians spit on blind people in the street! They are killing albinos in Africa! You are so fucking naive!
Father Leary: Please do not curse at me, Father. I think it would be best to countinue this conversation in the morning, when you are sober.
Father James Lavelle: Why you are a fucking priest at all? You should be a fucking accountant or a fucking insurance man!
