Film ViolenceTarantino clashes with interviewer Krishnan Guru-Murthy
It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. Anything you behold with your eyes has the potential to effect you on an internal level. Spiritually, Emotionally and psychologically. External pressures causes us to draw from a pool of stored or learnt images, sounds, concepts, words and so on. All linked to audio visual stimuli. Anyone can be mentally unstable given the right or shall say the wrong pressures. Now which pool of stored data will a person draw from? how will that person dissimulate the appropriate information in order to apply the right response, to the pressure? or in order to lesson the pressure or threat to survival? For some it may be split seconds when dealing with fear, for some it maybe days of pent up anger. And for some, they have already decided what their going to do. I don't think we could blame violence in movies for the decisions people make in reality. But the lines have blurred into each other and it's more so now like looking into a mirror. The world of movie violence and violence in the world.
Matthew 18:6-9
Jesus said, if your eye offends you pluck it out, and he said this in relation to sin. If what your looking at causes you to sin then pluck your eye out. better to go to heaven with one eye than to go to hell with two eyes. It's an extreme statement driving home the point that anything that effects you to point of causing you to sin, then that thing whatever it is should be removed or you from it. There will always be something in this life that has the potential to cause you to sin but you have a choice in the matter, but it wont be an easy process. Making that right choice will cost you something. But in the long run it will be worth it.
