Hopelessness in Religious Faith

Published 2023-02-12
Religion and having faith in it is one of the most sensitive topic that can be tackled out there, it hardly or rarely satisfies every side of the conversation and is problematic to be discussed to say the least
By any means I don't have a stance in this that will align with people with such beliefs, it is simply too corrupted by all of those hardcore devotees and all of the act they do under the guard of religion
With my own personal experiences from being in such a surrounding and witnessing how damaging it can be or how quickly it can do that, I can't in any circumstances have such a devotion to something so harmful
And the cinematic works that were focused in here perfectly summarize how I feel about it and all of the people who harm other via it while claiming it as their "right" to do so
Most of the works being used are massively dominated by horror titles, as the past it had was heavily influenced by religious themes and immerged from the fears that were caused by it
How it used to dictate and still does to an extent as to how people lead their lives, being clamped down by it's controlling claws whose betrayal supposedly leads to their damnation

Voice V - Now this was quite tough to be done with

Voice S - In what way?

Voice V - Well, majority of it lies in the topics that I had to discuss

Voice S - What was about them that was particularly difficult?

Voice V - Just some of it hit a bit too close to home

Voice S - Got too real, huh?

Voice V - Yes, you can say that

Voice S - Still, it was needed to be talked about, right?

Voice V - Ofcourse it was! I needed to be made aware of those stuff

Voice S - Can't ignore them for eternity

Voice V - Exactly! No matter how hard it was at certain moments, I had to go through them

Voice S - Rightfully so

Voice V - I'm kinda excited and nervous about it though?

Voice S - About how people will feel about it?

Voice V - Yes, it isn't vastly different than my previous projects but it is still somewhat risky

Voice S - Well as you said, some of the points were necessary to be said, so take solace in that
fact

Voice V - I'm trying, it's just the rest that worries me

Voice S - That's a given with a topic like this

Voice V - Better to focus on the next one, right?

Voice S - That's the way to go!

    As of now I finally feel comfortable enough to mention and talk about topics that are personal to me and my identity in a way that I couldn't in the past for various reasons This change will be continued in most of my future works and with this direction I will try to dabble my feet into different formats and mediums to keep things fresh and interesting for both parties Just like in here I mention mostly series and a real life case, which isn't what I usually focused in my previous videos, that is not say that there weren't any traditional films being used in here Or they wouldn't be used from here on forward, the power of fiction and all of the opportunities that it offers was the ultimate focus and will continue to be, but certain subject matters simply work better with real life correlation And the Burari case was something that was almost needed to be focused here, ever since I watched it almost 2 years ago, I wanted to discuss that in a video however I just didn't knew how to That is the reason for the delay for this topic, which by all means comes off as a viewpoint of someone who is anti-religion in nature, my bias and opinions heavily skewed the video in such a direction Which might not sit well with some viewers, but being someone who has witnessed the damages that are done by certain religious practices or in the name of it, I cannot but have a sour taste while talking about it

    This one was a rollercoaster, in the best way. I really liked this one and think it may be your best one yet. From the writing, the framing of movies on the topic, moving to real life incidents and mingling in your personal take and how it relates to you, this one was fantastic. As usual the editing and way you pull all the elements together is top tier. You’re criminally underrated my friend but never doubt your talent.
