Chapter 45 Religion and Belief
Lin Xuan's words obviously frightened these teenage children. After he finished speaking, almost all the children were stunned. Being enemies with the gods was something they could not even imagine. After a long silence, Lei Di
One stood up.
"I am willing to follow the teacher's path until the end of my life."
A simple sentence, but I don’t know how much trust and courage it contains. This child who has been living in the slums since childhood regards Lin Xuan’s words as the most important creed in his life. Following Lei’s statement, Katie, Lisa and others
People also stood up one after another.
Lin Xuan was pleased with this. In his opinion, a magician who dare not challenge the supreme authority can never truly understand the true meaning of magic. Learning, summarizing, doubting, and making breakthroughs are the attitudes a magician should have.
He looked back at the huge statue of the god. Everything Lin Xuan had done before could be said to be treacherous to this unknown god. But even so, Lin Xuan did not feel any strange aura at all.
"The most intolerable thing for gods is the offense of mortals. But you were indifferent to everything before. Have you become so weak?"
Lin Xuan looked back at the High Sparrow. "It seems that your prayers have not worked. Your god has abandoned you and everyone else. Tell me what you believe in? What do you believe in? You are looking forward to a certain god descending from the sky.
I'll give you a piece of bread, or throw you a handful of gold coins." Lin Xuan turned around and looked at the believers around him.
"We believe in the gods, and we will not alienate because of the indifference of the gods, nor give up because of the distance of the gods. We will always believe until death." The High Sparrow said the above few words with difficulty, and it was almost exhausted.
He tried his best.
"Until death? This is the sentence I want to hear the most today. You will soon fulfill your vow." Lin Xuan moved his fingers, and the whole body of the High Sparrow was pulled into the air by invisible force. It formed a big character shape.
posted on the wall.
"There was also a legend about a certain god in my world. He walked around the world, suffered suffering on behalf of humans, and accepted punishment on behalf of humans. In the end, he was crucified on a cross by a group of thugs. However, he was resurrected on the seventh day and became
The real god. This is just a legend, but what he did is worth it.
Be respected. So if all the above are true, I will admit that he is a god. But what about your god? What has he done for this world? What did he do when his believers suffered? He is just
He is aloof and enjoys the admiration of the world, but he will not contribute anything to the world."
Belief itself is an extremely idealistic concept. Everyone always has some beliefs. We believe in success, money, rights, and even ourselves. Religious belief is another aspect. In order to cater to modern people's thinking concepts, what we believe in
The religion I came into contact with is no longer a pure religion. It has become a cultural phenomenon that adapts to the trend.
Think about the religious wars in the past. What did those churches do in the theocratic era? They preached that a certain fictional being was the only true God, and all beings who believed in other things were pagans. For this reason, they launched countless wars and races.
Extinction. Just to silence everyone's mouth.
They randomly trapped women on crosses and burned them to death, or hanged them. Then they told the world that if she was burned to death, it would prove that she was not a witch. She would prove her innocence. If she was not burned to death, it would prove that she was not a witch.
She's a witch and a follower of the devil. I just want to fucking ask those bastards
How many witches have been burned? This can only mean one thing. Those guys actually know best that witches do not exist. That is why they dare to be so unscrupulous and flaunt their rights wantonly. If witches really exist,
They will definitely kneel down and lick it as soon as possible and pray for some blessing.
Like mad dogs, they attacked the wilderness and slaughtered all the savages just because they had their own sect. They slaughtered innocent people in the name of their faith. They told the world that they were fighting for their faith. However, the people who died were either
No one alive can feel the so-called faith anymore. Only those guys standing behind get what they want, benefits. In the name of religion, benefits obtained by plundering and plundering. This is when religion reaches its peak.
performance.
Lin Xuan was born in modern society. He has his own beliefs. He believes in knowledge and power. But he does not believe in religion. In his opinion, all those statements that promote so-and-so as the only true god are themselves the biggest heresy. Like Chinese gods, at least in
Each level has its own exclusive position. Door God, Kitchen God, Mountain God, River God, etc. It can at least be treated as a complete cultural system.
Looking back at those religions, it is always the case that so-and-so is the only true god, and the others are all false gods. Their gods are all omnipotent, from creating the world to people eating, drinking, and having sex. However, in the end, those of the Holy See
The high-ranking officials are all extremely rich, but the believers who believe in them have not experienced the slightest change.
Therefore, Lin Xuan has always believed that the believers with the highest status must be the ones who least believe in the existence of so-called gods. Because if gods really exist, those people will be the first to suffer retribution.
Lin Xuan nailed the High Sparrow to the wall in the shape of a large character. If there was another time traveler, it would be understandable. It was a picture of the crucifixion of Jesus. The difference was that Lin Xuan did not intend to resurrect him.
Lin Xuan looked back at his students and said in an unprecedented tone. "As a magician, we can have faith. We believe in knowledge, power, and magic. But we do not believe in gods. I want you to remember what you have learned today.
Everything that happened. When one day in the future, a believer comes to you arrogantly and accuses you of stealing the power of the gods, crush them."
A huge plum circle appeared at Lin Xuan's feet. At the same time, a strong vibration began to appear at everyone's feet. The onlookers fled in panic. However, several of Lin Xuan's disciples stood firm.
By his side.
The earth seemed to be shaking with Lin Xuan's spell. Huge cracks appeared on the ground, walls, and every load-bearing column. The cathedral that had stood for thousands of years was on the verge of collapse. All the people in Junlin City were
Feeling the collective vibration, they looked in the direction of the vibration. But they were horrified to find that the cathedral, the holy place in their hearts, was getting shorter. In fact, it was not only getting shorter, the entire church was gradually collapsing.
This is a magic specially developed by Lin Xuan using the principle of resonance to destroy buildings. It can be regarded as an effective combination of science and magic. The first use effect was not bad. The body of the High Sparrow was buried with the collapse of the cathedral. According to this world
