Heretic (film)

"I’m talking to you about iterations. I need you to have a very basic understanding of iterating, because I’m going to make a very disturbing claim tonight. It will make your stomachs sink a little and your hearts beat faster. It will make you sick. It may even… I’m very sorry… make you want to… to die."

"When I die, I want to come back as a butterfly, just to follow around the people I love. Ill land right on their hand. Not their arm, not their... their head, right on their fingertip, so they know its me."

"[to Mr. Reed] Praying…doesn’t work. Have you ever heard of the Great Prayer Experiment? They divided patients into groups. Those who received prayers and those who didn’t. The results of the study were conclusive. It doesn’t work. But I think it’s beautiful that we all pray for each other…even though we all probably know it doesn’t make a difference. It’s just nice to think about someone other than yourself. Even if it’s you."

"So when I started studying theology, the last thing I wanted to do was find…the Wendy’s of religions. I was just writing a research paper for a college class, and I was content with dabbling. So, some McNuggets here, BK Whopper over there, whatever fit the mood. As I studied the genres, McD, BK, InNOut, i.e., Mormonism, Scientology, Islam, Buddhism, as I got closer to God through genre and rigorous study, as I worked on my personal relationship with Heavenly Father, and I think strengthened it, do you know what I found? The more you know, the less you know. And by the time I was 50, I was malnourished from the fast food of religion I’d been packing into my brain for the best part of a decade. Every sect, cult, creed, denomination all claimed to be the one, true doctrine, and yet none seemed true when held under the microscope. So I wondered what else was out there. I promise you, the last thing I wanted to do was find the one true religion. But unfortunately, I did."
