Thank You!
The young priest sees many Japanese Christians die as martyrs for their faith without any sign from the heavens that God is aware of their suffering. Though Rodrigues believes in a heavenly afterlife for the martyrs, he is shocked by the banality of their deaths, and the indifference of the world. He finds it hard to reconcile their horrible deaths with a God that exists.
