I don't think it's coincidence that this sounds like the description of a C-section, only even more graphic. At least the surgeons have the decency to do the stitching for you.

Why, do you think, Mormon Mom says, “Well, it has something to do with God, so it’s not very nice…” I would expect a deeply religious person to have a positive view of God, instead of the morbid analogy she is drawing here.
@joed18010 ай бұрын
As a woman she is subjugated by that religion, and even then her life would have been very, very hard. She probably did not have a lot of choices in her life practically, including religion. And what someone truly thinks deep down is often different than what they profess to believe or are forced to say they do.

Should I be impressed with this? Why? Is this not another region of the world being destroyed in the name of “discovering”? Sad. Another one time pristine area of the world succumbing to the common destruction leveled on the earth by this consistently destructive people group. Hey, don’t add your insecure comments to bring destruction on my opinion. Sadly, I am sickened by the full documentary I am watching even now on a different provider. The reality of my disgust is found in this fact: I just cancelled my subscription due to the fact that the provider exalts this feature as award winning. Sad.

“Thermodynamic miracles... events with odds against so astronomical they're effectively impossible, like oxygen spontaneously becoming gold. I long to observe such a thing. And yet, in each human coupling, a thousand million sperm vie for a single egg. Multiply those odds by countless generations, against the odds of your ancestors being alive; meeting; siring this precise son; that exact daughter... Until your mother loves a man she has every reason to hate, and of that union, of the thousand million children competing for fertilization, it was you, only you, that emerged. To distill so specific a form from that chaos of improbability, like turning air to gold... that is the crowning unlikelihood. The thermodynamic miracle. But...if me, my birth, if that's a thermodynamic miracle... I mean, you could say that about anybody in the world!. Yes. Anybody in the world. ..But the world is so full of people, so crowded with these miracles that they become commonplace and we forget... I forget. We gaze continually at the world and it grows dull in our perceptions. Yet seen from the another's vantage point. As if new, it may still take our breath away. Come...dry your eyes. For you are life, rarer than a quark and unpredictable beyond the dreams of Heisenberg; the clay in which the forces that shape all things leave their fingerprints most clearly. Dry your eyes... and let's go home.”

She's using God as a metaphor for life. Life opens you up and dirties you, turns you 'impure' and then makes you pick up the pieces. She's using a lot of metaphors, there's a birth metaphor here... being violated and having your insides turned inside out is like the change from virginity to losing virginity... you're never the same again. Childbirth: once your body has a child it's never the same again. these are all metaphors of change. People change when reality hits them, it messes them up and forces them to heal themself, and never again are they able to go back. change comes after pain.

Harper is married to a closeted gay man named Joe. They are both devout Mormons who understand that homosexuality & divorce are shunned by the church, so both of them are living in denial for the sake of keeping the marriage together. He works long hours at his law firm to avoid going home to Harper at night, while she becomes addicted to Valium to cope with the breakdown of their relationship and the gaslighting she receives anytime she tries to speak with him about their lack of intimacy. Throughout the course of the series, Harper in her Valium-induced state talks to several historical characters who are figments of her imagination. These conversations are her subconscious talking and giving her guidance to leave or stay - I.e. whether real change in Joe is feasible.

1:27 eesh. I’m not even religious and that graphic, vulgar description makes me sick...then I feel sad. Because it’s true. That’s what a broken heart and mangled soul feels like...and you alone are the _only_ person who can mend your wounds and move on. _That’s_ how God (If you believe is there one, or life itself) makes us stronger. --From an agnostic perspective.

@eclecticism30864 жыл бұрын
What you're saying is cute but not really true, and tony kushner who wrote the play was a secular jew. He's not talking about broken hearts or torn Souls. He's saying that ppl basically don't change, or dont want to, unless it's forced on them from outside, and always because of theyre suffering. This is a very cynical scene, not a hopeful one.. and even after you've been violated and done the stitching, you're never whole. You're just "mangled guts pretending." Kushners saying people don't ever change, not voluntarily, not inside, and in the end they are worse off for it, not stronger.

I’m an atheist but this play and all its spiritual imagery doesn’t put me off at all. Kusher did not mean it to be religious at all, I don’t even think he was- but Mormonism is used as a device, as are things like Judaism in the context of American migration, and Walt Whitman is in here too. The metaphors are beautiful. Some represent truth, others just things we fear or wish for. Like you, I think there is much truth to this: people don’t come easily to change and when they do, it’s through suffering. Harper’s monologue at the end I think is Kusher himself, talking about everything he has conveyed in the play: “At least, I think that’s so.”
@joed18010 ай бұрын
@@邓梓薇 There’s a video on youtube that talks about life on the context of entropy: “The mission of life is to continue the mission of the stars.” And by that they mean, to convert useful energy into entropy. Harper’s monologue at the end says “Nothing is lost forever” and wouldn’t it be nice if that were actually true- even if it’s not.

Harper: In your experience of the world. How do people change? Mormon Mother: Well it has something to do with God so it's not very nice. God splits the skin with a jagged thumbnail from throat to belly and then plunges a huge filthy hand in, he grabs hold of your bloody tubes and they slip to evade his grasp but he squeezes hard, he insists, he pulls and pulls till all your innards are yanked out and the pain... We can't even talk about that. And then he stuffs them back, dirty, tangled and torn. It's up to you to do the stitching. Harper: And get up. And walk around. Mormon Mother: Just mangled guts pretending. Harper: That's how people change.
