Morality Coupled with Religion: Deep Interpretation of the Films about“Nanking Massacre”

"南京大屠杀"题材诸多电影暗示宗教可以拯救道德。欧洲启蒙运动以前宗教尤其基督教的确具有至上的权威,理性的复苏使现代社会道德滑坡,道德再也不能挽救失落的宗教。思想先贤与历史进程均昭示宗教与道德是一对难兄难弟,人类仅靠自律难以完善道义与德行,人性需要宗教予以他律。宗教的世俗化与现代性的多元化并不冲突,反而能彰显终极关怀,广播真理,与道德互补共进,携手锤塑至善至美。

Many films about 'Nanking Massacre'hint that religion can save morality. Religion, especially Christianity, had the supreme authority before the Enlightenment in Europe, but recovery of rationality causes morality to decline in modern society and morality can no longer save the lost religion. Both sages of thought and historical process have demonstrated that religion and morality are fraternal companion in adversity or misfortune. It is difficult for mankind to perfect the morality and virtue only by self-discipline, so mankind needs to achieve heteronomy by religion. Religious secularization still doesn't conflict with modern pluralism, notwithstanding it can highlight the ultimate concern to construct utmost virtue with extreme perfection, via broadcasting the truth widely, in company with morality hand in hand.
