Chapter 944 - Believe in Science, Get Developed

No matter how much the European countries try to cover up, they cannot change the fact that the European colonizers committed numerous crimes in the colonies. In this world, there is no such thing as a "new continent", and it cannot be described by the word "discovery". Because, whether it is the Americas, Africa or Australia, they all have indigenous people.

And the occupation of these colonies by European colonizers is a history of massacres. After all, the colonizers, as outsiders, had to take land from the natives if they wanted to get it. And the indigenous people are certainly not willing to give up their land. Then, for the sake of the land, the colonizers could only kill the natives, with the blood of the natives on their hands.

Therefore, colonization has always been a bloody process, there are no flowers, there is no beauty described by the poet, only killing and plundering. Later generations admired Columbus's discovery of America, but they never thought that it was Columbus who brought death and extinction to Native Americans.

Marin had seen such a record in his previous life - in 1970, white Australians held a grand celebration in Sydney Harbour to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Captain Cook's "discovery" of Australia. At the same time, Aboriginal representatives from all over Australia gathered at the Cook Landing to hold a memorial service, and their signs had the names of the disappeared tribes written on them. They said, "They celebrate theirs, and we mourn the many who have died." ”

In short, colonization is an act of plundering and harming the indigenous people by foreign colonizers. It could even cause extinction to the indigenous people.

Of course, this is the view of civilized people in later generations. But the ass decides the head, and since Marin is a colonist, he definitely can't sympathize with those natives.

Moreover, the wise saying "if you are backward, you will be beaten" truly shows the cruelest side of the world. The indigenous people sat on fertile land, but they did not have the strong force to protect their land and wealth, and could only watch the colonial robbers take everything. Even if Marin doesn't do it, in a few years, Britain and France will do it. Spain and Portugal, on the other hand, are now in their hands. Rather than letting others do the benefits, it's better to let yourself be.

As for the massacres and deportations of indigenous peoples, it is really hard to avoid. Colonial activities are not about inviting guests to dinner, there is no warmth in any way, and some are just life and death. Who doesn't want great mountains and rivers? Man dies for money, and birds die for food. Having fertile land while being weak is in itself the original sin. In this barbaric era where there is no rule of law and no civilization, big fists are the last word.

And in the experience of later generations, the massacre and expulsion of the natives, although brutal, were necessary. You don't see, the former colonial countries that became developed countries in later generations were all white-dominated countries, and they all slaughtered and drove out the indigenous people at the beginning. For example, the United States, for example, Canada, for example, Australia......

South American countries, such as Peru and Bolivia, have a large number of Indians, but they just can't become developed countries. The most classic is South Africa, which was originally an African power and a quasi-nuclear country. As a result, as soon as the old black natives turned over, they immediately tossed South Africa into a problem country. Although it is still leading in black Africa, it is a family foundation left over from the original white era.

In other words, with the exception of China, Japan, and India, which have a relatively high degree of civilization, the indigenous people of those originally primitive and backward countries still seem to have no future even if they enter the 21st century.

Marin is not a racist, but, judging from the experience of two lifetimes, natives like Lao Hei are really Adou who can't be helped. You say that the old black in Africa can't develop, and you can blame the colonizers for plundering and oppressing. But he's meowing, the old black in the United States, but he has the opportunity to receive the same higher education as the white people. Influenced by the hundreds of years of white people around him, if he had been Chinese, he would have learned everything about white people and adapted to them. But what about the old black in the United States? In the 21st century, it is still so2, except for good sports, RAP and bragging, there are basically no advantages. It's hard to find an Okuhei, who is still half white and grew up in a white family.

In addition, Marin has a different view on the preservation of traditional national culture propagated by later generations. In Ma Lin's view, advanced national cultures, such as Chinese civilization, must of course be preserved. However, the kind of traditional culture that looks like a primitive or slave society retains the preservation of Ni's paralysis! For example, in black African countries, many countries still have tribes, and chiefs can marry thousands of wives...... Can this traditional culture be preserved? Apparently not! Backward cultures and traditions should be abolished, not cherished by brooms.

It's like India, the bad is bad in Hinduism. It's the 21st century, and people are still divided into three, six, nine, and so on, no wonder this country can't develop. Of course, for China, India preserves the Hindu tradition, which is welcome.

In addition, Marin has always believed that religion should not interfere in politics. Religion is foolish, and if a country wants to develop, it must get rid of the influence of religion and take science as a faith, not a non-existent god as a faith.

The reason why China was able to develop rapidly in later generations is inseparable from the fact that a certain D broke all superstitions and believed in science by the whole people. If the future generations of China still pray for God and worship Buddha, then it will definitely not be much better than Ah San.

You don't believe in science, how can you expect scientific and technological progress and social development?

Some people may say that Europe believes in God and is not still developed? In fact, the development of science and technology in Europe began only after the victory of tolerant Protestantism over Catholicism. And this time period was in the middle of the 16th century. The great scientist Newton, if he had been born more than 100 years earlier, would have been burned to death by the church tied to a pillar. Strictly speaking, Protestant countries, such as England and Germany, are countries where religion is used as a mascot. The premise of their rise was that the state was freed from the control of the church. Although France is not a Protestant country, after the "Nantes Amnesty", religion in the country has been tolerated, and religious persecution is no longer engaged. And the pious Spain, which set up the Inquisition, eventually cocooned itself and declined from a giant empire to a second- or third-rate country. Italy too, after all, the Holy See is in Italy.

There are many reasons why Spain and Italy have fallen behind, and the lack of coal is also one of the important reasons. However, in the 20th century, when coal was no longer the main source of energy, the lack of coal could no longer be used as an excuse. Because, at that time, nuclear power came out. Moreover, everyone imports oil. As a southern European country, it is more convenient to import oil from the Middle East and North Africa.

In fact, Marin speculated that the development momentum of China in later generations was more fierce than that of Europe and the United States, whether it was because the Chinese people believed in science rather than in God. Although Europeans and Americans also believe in science, they are not as thorough as those in China. Many Europeans and Americans still believe in God, and many players even draw crosses on their chests after scoring goals. In China, the main people who believe in God are the young people. As for the Han Chinese, they are mostly atheists.

In short, if you want technology to develop, you must believe in science, not gods. Believe in science, get development!

Of course, it doesn't matter if you want to develop technology or not, you believe in the gods. After all, it is your freedom to believe in what you believe, as long as you don't believe in cults......
