The Conscience

From the movie The Messenger this is the segment that I believe makes the movie stand out. Dustin Hoffman plays Joan of Arc's conscience. And here at the end of her trial her conscience finally breaks through and shows her how her beliefs have been what she wanted the truth to be rather than the actual truth. It is an beautiful guide to how to critically examine a claim.

Agreed... I did state that a bit too flatly. The point is still relevant regarding it being a test into how an individual views matters.

In this scene, Rain Man tries to convince Alice that God is all in her head.

the point is she is talking to a man who is not there and the "conscience" is right joan only saw what she wanted

I believe Joan of Arc was like an agent of the governement of Charles VII and her role was to be used as a psychological weapon. Joan played the role of a virgin saint sent by God, because it was what the French population and the French army needed at this time. And what better to legitimate the claim of Charles VII to the throne of France than a messenger sent by God?

And it worked...

Joan was nor schizophrenic, nor visited by God.

EPHESIANS 6;11-18 PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE WILES OF THE DEVIL FOR WE DO NOT WRESTLE AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD BUT AGAINST PRINCIPALITIES AGAINST POWERS AGAINST THE RULERS OF THE DARKNESS OF THIS AGE AGAINST SPIRITUAL HOSTS OF WICKEDNESS IN HEAVENLY PLACES THEREFORE TAKE UP THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND IN THE EVIL DAY AND HAVING DONE ALL TO STAND.

Hi guys!

Pocket pope here. Just remember this:

Anything (even logic) that says God doesnt exist = DEVIL

Anything (even logic too!) that says God does exist = EJECULATION

Scribble this down and keep it in your pocket.
