Recommended: Child sexual abuse within the church thesis

When I was watching "The crime of padre Amaro" I felt very sorrowful and when movie ends I felt very tired like I worked hard whole day. Why do I felt like that? It is because this movie shown bad story about the Roman Catholic Church; clergy especially for example corruption, carnal guilt, abortion, lie, crime, etc. Moreover I think this movie is truth. However while I was writing this a new feeling that is appear it is glad because I think when someone can create this movie like this that is "based on fact" of Church it show that the Church must know as well more than them. So I think these problems will be prevented and solve.
Now I will share my opinion about question "who sinned the most among the movie characters". While I was reading …show more content…

With her age, it is normal that she will interest the opposite sex and feel something about sex. However she should know what should do or non in relationship with the priest because she who was catechism teacher and she has boyfriend already. She should learn to train her feelings not let it go by her feel like this. And worst; she encourages a desire for male.
Amaro: first time this situation Fr. Amaro can present a good action. He aware he a human being and a man and he begin to know his feeling when he approach Amelia. But finally it is wrong; he succumbed to the seduction of her and a sense of self. He has freedom, he can choose but he chosen in commits sin.

Father Amaro lied to Martin when he wanted place for activity sexual with Amelia; "she wanted to be a nun". And when Martin asked him when they went to meet bishop about "her wanted to be a nun" Fr. Amaro lies him again.
Amaro: His lying is worse because it is a lie, deceive for his benefit from the generosity of others by using the guise of religion and kindness to get what he wanted for

  • The Prince Of Los Cocuyos Analysis

    698 Words  | 2 Pages

    Throughout the time I spent between the covers of The Prince of Los Cocuyos, I was astounded by Richard Blanco’s dynamic relationship with the novel’s sole “antagonist”: his abuela. It seemed that no matter how many times he was chagrined at her attempts to negotiate the English language, or was forced to repress his very personhood to meet her traditional standards of manhood, she never ceased to be a pillar of support for a young Richard Blanco. But beyond his grandmother, Mr. Blanco made it quite clear that he was surrounded by a pueblo of family and friends throughout his childhood and adolescence, a village that would confound his “becoming” but foster his growth, make him question his identity and yet be intricately connected to it. It

  • Analysis: Penance Of Rodrigo

    1215 Words  | 3 Pages

    The penance of Rodrigo was where the movie started to get very exciting. This penance demonstrated that even the most hardened person can be changed. Rodrigo undertook the sacrament of reconciliation. A sacrament is a symbol of “Christ’s love made visible.” A symbol is something that contains the reality it signifies, and also captures a meaning difficult to explain with words. The bishops of Vatican II (according to the “sacraments” reading) said that “purpose of the sacraments is to sanctify men….” The penance of Rodrigo was a perfect example of a sacrament in action because Rodrigo was sanctified—he ceased to think that the natives were primitive people who should be enslaved. He realized the error of his ways. The bishops (again, according to the “sacraments” reading) also said that sacraments instruct. Another reason why Rodrigo’s penance was the perfect example of a sacrament in action was because through his penance and forgiveness, Rodrigo changed his thinking, which means that he was instructed on why his ways were wrong.

  • Analysis Of Junot Diaz's The Brief Wondrous Life Of Oscar Wao

    2349 Words  | 5 Pages

    Junot Diaz’s novel The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao is focused on the hyper-masculine culture of the Dominican, and many argue that his portrayal of the slew of women in the novel is misogynistic because they are often silenced by the plot and kept out of the narration (Matsui). However, Diaz crafts strong women, and it is society that views them as objects. The novel recognizes the masculine lens of the culture while still examining the lives of resilient women. In this way, the novel showcases a feminist stance and critiques the misogynist culture it is set in by showcasing the strength and depth of these women that help to shape the narrative while acknowledging that it is the limits society places on them because of their sexuality

    The film Amistad is based on a true event that occurred in 1839. It is about a mutiny by recently captured slaves, who take over a ship known as La Amistad, and the legal battle that followed regarding their freedom. The movie begins by showing many Africans chained together on the lower deck of La Amistad. They manage to break free and go to the upper deck and attack the sailors, leading a mutiny and taking over the ship. They leave two men alive to guide them back to Africa, but they point them towards the US. When they arrive in the states, the Africans are thought to be runaway slaves, and are imprisoned. The case of their freedom is taken to court, to decide whether the Africans were originally slaves or free men. One lawyer decides to fight for them, and pleads his case that the Africans were never slaves and were indeed free men. The case eventually makes it to the Supreme Court and a translator is eventually found to communicate with the leader of the Africans, and he tells his story. He was one of many illegally captured in Africa, and sold into slavery. When the time comes for the trial, John Quincy Adams pleas for their freedom.

  • The Analysis of Antonio’s Character

    1589 Words  | 4 Pages

    The lines selected for analysis are Act II, Scene I, lines 277-291, when Antonio is trying to reassure Sebastian that killing his brother—the King of Naples—is a good idea and well worth the effort. As the reader knows, Antonio usurped his brother, Prospero, and became the Duke of Milan. This sets the stage for his attitude towards Sebastian’s wanting to kill his brother, King Alonso. Because of Antonio’s past actions he sees nothing wrong with getting rid of a family member for personal gain, but his reasons for doing so began at a young age and have been etched into his brain. Antonio’s psychological depth reveals that he is a man jealous of his brother’s rightful power, and stemming from that is his insecurity and lust for power wherever he may find it (in this case, having power over Sebastian). Antonio is not a good person, has few conscientious thoughts, and is now trying to convince his companion to follow his lead. If Antonio’s brother, Prospero, was to hear the selected lines, he would say that the only time Antonio thinks about performing acts that will get him power, by eliminating those who currently have it, is when it is to his advantage. He would say that Antonio devises plans to get rid of leaders when they are at a disadvantage, and he at an advantage, because he doesn’t feel that he could succeed otherwise—his insecurities kicking in. I don’t think Shakespeare agrees with Antonio, and there are two examples in the play to support that.
