Few people know that the fall of Constantinople was a sneak attack by the Crusades, and this was the result of a religious separation, not to mention that the two main religions in the Soviet Union were Orthodox Christianity and Peace Christianity! Did you really let the KGB kill all the imams?

"I have always wanted to promote reconciliation between the Holy See and the Orthodox Church, and the Holy See did make a mistake in this matter!" John XXIII's eyes were a little gloomy, and he lowered his tone and said, "Yes, the fall of Constantinople was caused by the division of Christendom at the beginning, and the Holy See cannot say that it is not without fault, and now several worlds have passed!" The split between Catholicism and Orthodoxy should also pass over with time, we are one family after all......"

"......It's too late," Serov stood up and looked at the magnificent St. Peter's Basilica, and said abruptly, "Russia has been committed to the liberation of all the people of God under the notice of the Ottoman Empire for the revival of the Orthodox Church since the day the empire was founded, and in the end we got nothing, we liberated all the people of the Slavic nations, and today Russia has such a bad reputation, but I dare to say this, including all of Bulgaria, Romania, Yugoslavia, Greece, must thank Russia for its unremitting efforts, From the day of its foundation until the day of its death, the Russian Empire was committed to liberating our compatriots and restoring the glory of the Roman Empire! But our greatest enemy was not the Ottoman Empire, but the so-called allies, and if it had not been for the Anglo-French alliance, Constantinople would have returned to Christendom today......"

"Today, Orthodoxy is a thing of the past! There is no need for religion in the whole of the Soviet Union, and Your Majesty John XXIII, you deserve respect as a learned old man, but this is not a reason to convince me to relax the regulation of religion! I have never changed my attitude towards religion, I can control it, and if I can't control it, I will curb it. If there is a chance to eliminate, I will definitely practice it! Serov said firmly, in his view, the two major religions in the Soviet Union were the source of the trouble, and the KGB absolutely could not relax its supervision of religion and crack down on all religious forces without discrimination, instead of making specific distinctions.

What is religion, in order to find a god who can help solve one's own problems. People have tried various methods, but they have failed again and again, but it is this simple intention that allows everyone to interpret the various states of the world and expose the dark side behind the contemporary religious beliefs in society. There is nothing wrong with religious belief and it is respected by choice, but those who take advantage of the realm of religion to deceive people about their feelings and money cannot be tolerated by all people. Yes, a statue is a god, a stone is also a god after being retouched, and different people have different gods in their hearts. Therefore, God is everywhere, and this is a huge impact on people's lives and spirits. But for the ridiculous arguments of the villains who were exposed, the embarrassing words are poor, and the helpless expressions are extremely ironic. Should everyone be punished for deceiving the good?

"God is God and Allah is God, so whose faith is the real God?" Serov had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "The Middle East has always considered Europeans to be colonizers, and Europeans have thought that they have brought modern civilization to a region of ignorance. So who is right and who is wrong? In the midst of opposing beliefs, who should we believe? ”

"General Serov. You can't deny the existence of God! John XXIII shouted solemnly, at this time he was no longer an old man who was almost eighty years old, and he could not tolerate a little disrespect for his lifelong belief in John XXIII.

"But Your Majesty John XXIII, you can't prove the existence of God!" Serov's face did not change at all, and he was unmoved by the duties of John XXIII, "Today's Soviet Union. The achievements do not depend on the so-called God, there has never been a savior, and it does not rely on the immortal emperor! It is up to us to create human happiness. Some can rely on the fact that for the time being the conditions of the USSR are not as good as those of the United States to prove it, then I ask you, His Majesty John XXIII. You promoted a few black cardinals, did you uphold God's will when Americans sold black slaves? ”

"Whether or not the people choose to believe in the existence of God should be left to the people to choose, right? General Serov? Even a powerful department like the KGB cannot deprive the people of their right to choose, which is not in line with the democracy that the Soviet Union has always flaunted, right? John XXIII was a little unable to keep up with the energy of this Soviet real power who was 50 years younger than himself, but he still fully released his goodwill, and he hoped that everyone would have the right to choose.

"But I'm an atheist, and religion has so many shortcomings, I don't want to watch the people pin their hopes on heaven, it's better to focus on building the country than this!" In Serov's view, religion is not important at all, only the kind of people who have been eating and waiting for death will pin their hopes on this, most of the people he has seen in his previous life who believe in God are old men and women in their seventies and eighties, who has time to put things on this kind of thing?

"The Soviet Union has always prided itself on democracy, and if you need the police system to teach the people how to do it, this is not what you wanted!" John XXIII has always wanted to reason Serov to admit his mistakes, whether it is atheism or Christianity, once the government enforces it, it will deviate from the original intention!

Serov was in a dilemma, he was still a little too young for a man who had served God all his life, and he should not have accepted the invitation to St. Peter's Basilica if he had known.

"In general, John XXIII wants me to loosen the regulation of religion in the country?" Serov changed the topic and said, now that he has acquiesced to the fact that he fell into the pit, the conversation between the two from now on is a real bargain!

Knowing what the other person needs, as well as your own needs, is the true meaning of bargaining! Now Serov, who climbed up from the pit, needs to know what this Pope John XXIII wants from him.

"I have no intention of interfering in the decisions of the Soviet government, but I want the people of the Soviet Union to be able to choose for themselves whether they believe in God or not!" John XXIII slowly spoke out his purpose.

"Our Soviet Union was originally an Orthodox country, and even if we restore our faith, it has nothing to do with the Vatican Holy See, I don't know what your purpose is Your Majesty John XXIII? Is it ready for a peaceful evolution of our USSR? I'll never show mercy to my enemies! Serov said his opinion unmoved.

"It doesn't matter what religion it is, now world peace is the mainstream, and our Holy See is also ready to improve relations with the Orthodox Church, I must admit that as a result of the great schism of Christianity, Catholicism is also very responsible, and the hostile relationship between Catholicism and Orthodoxy should also end!" John XXIII was very sincere in stating his purpose.

Like this kind of old man who has dedicated his life to his beliefs, Serov can't find any words to refute the other party. But one thing he knew and understood was that John XXIII's idea was good, and in the end it could not escape the impact of reality, even if Serov promised to loosen the regulation of religious issues, as the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union continued, the Soviet Union would continue to set another yardstick.

"It's not impossible, but I also have a request, His Majesty the Pope or the Vatican must promise me, and if I agree, I can guarantee that I will not send the priest to prison, as for supporting the priest's work, it is impossible, but it will not restrict the priest's activities, if my request is not met, I will go back and be ready to expand the powers of the Religious Affairs Committee, and contact all the allies to eliminate the remnants of religion!" Serov immediately looked for favorable conditions for reaching an agreement, and if an agreement could be reached, it would be best, if not for so long, he would always find an opportunity to clean up the religious forces in other countries, especially Poland.

"General Serov, please say, I would like to listen to your opinions!" John XXIII said gently.

"Now the Soviet Union and the United States are in the midst of a cold war, and our struggle is life and death! I don't think it's up to you, Your Majesty, to decide where the Vatican is in the middle, but what I want is that the Vatican cannot interfere in the religious affairs of all Eastern European countries, and at the same time, it must not elect popes of Eastern European countries, and if this is not achieved, we will have nothing to talk about! Serov finally added, "I can't negotiate, that's my bottom line!" I hope His Majesty the Pope can think it through! ”

History seems to have elected a Slavic John after the seventies? Paul II, this man is a Pole, this pope can be said to be the enemy of socialism as a whole, he caused great trouble to the KGB in the eighties, and it can be said that he defeated the KGB's containment ideologically, because the appearance of this Pope of Polish origin has kept Poland, which has always been the weak point of the Soviet bloc, in a state of instability.

"The government cannot interfere with the freedom of religion, and I cannot betray the people of God in Eastern Europe to your government!" John XXIII did not expect Serov to put forward such a condition, and refused without thinking.

"Then there is no need to talk about it, the rift between Catholicism and Orthodoxy does not need to be bridged, our USSR is already an atheist country, and the whole of Eastern Europe is an atheist country! God just needs to shine in the Vatican! Serov said without blushing or beating his heart, and he had decided to assassinate all the well-known Eastern European priests after he returned, especially Poland, and not a single one could be left, and this work would be handed over to Menderev's Operations Enforcement Office.

"The people need freedom of faith, does General Serov have to be so stubborn?" John XXIII persuaded. (To be continued.) )
