The priest escaped from the reality that was too hurtful and convinced himself to believe in a mild illusion. Adam pressed, do you think Satan is testing you, it's just that God wants to abandon you. God and Satan, good and evil, purification and depravity, seem to be in each other, each leading to each other.
In addition, if viewed from the social level, the church is equivalent to the epitome of society. As a kind of order, priests play a very subtle role in the church. In fact, everyone's nature has not changed. They should steal or steal or grab and grab. They more or less hold their own beliefs that cannot be classified, but because of the existence of this order, they do what they can in the visible range. And when the priest said that he was about to die, the order was broken, the faith was released, and each other confronted and changed, but in the end he would find his own place and find his place. It's as if everyone went their separate ways in the end.
The night of thunder and lightning was seen as Adam’s epiphany, but I don’t think he was transformed into a person who believes in God at that time. The emotion that religion produces is actually a kind of "sublime", that is, awe, awe of some transcending power. Adam has always believed in his "evil nature" and took it as the right way, but under such circumstances, he had to fear fate, which gave rise to awe, which is similar to belief.
Or to go a step further, I don't even think that the priest has a pious belief in God. The fate he avoided was actually avoiding doubts about God. He didn't want to question the only strong spiritual support in life, so he attributed bad luck to Satan's test, just as he fabricated another fact. The priest's attitude towards religion is actually like a fight club, finding a reason for himself to live.
Speaking of it, it is not God or Satan who redeems and cleanses people, but the apple cake. It's just incompetent human nature.
