Time for some Christmas movies. Recently it
was "Black Robe" - about Jesuit hubris and ignorance (a
deadly combination) in the 17th Century. Next was
Scorcese's "Silence" - again about Jesuit
hubris and ignorance during their
ill-fated missionary work in
Japan. Silence is also
a meditation on the
silence of God
in the face
of great
suffering.
 
Then there will be Of Gods and Men. This film is not
about Jesuit ignorance and hubris. Instead it's
about a community of Trappist monks that
live among a Muslim community in
Algiers. It's a lovely film and 
one I dearly wish more 
Christians would see
and take to heart.
