Chapter 444: The Collapse of Faith in Christendom

But Spain is only one of the countries in Europe where the whole country dances the gods.

Spain's brothers, Portugal, were also quietly dancing the gods - in the face of the sacred onslaught of England and Germany, the pressure on the Christian nation without the divine messenger was too great. The Portuguese used the same tactics as the Spaniards. Considering that his country is small and weak, the Portuguese officials and the Spaniards secretly discussed and decided to share the same archangel.

And France, another country connected to Spain's territory, is now also carrying out the activity of dancing the gods of the whole people.

France, like Spain, is in line with the three elements of the birth of the "divine messenger", or even more so.

After the end of the war in Europe, France was divided in two. The remnants of the French Navy were mainly concentrated in the hands of the South French Vichy France. In the European war, the British successfully attacked North Africa, and the French navy suffered unprecedented heavy losses. After the war, France was divided in two.

Both the North and the South are very eager to unify France.

But the class antagonism between North and South France, and the Germans who were on the sidelines, made this dream impossible.

After the end of the war in Europe, Paris became the capital of socialist France, and the ruling party was France. Vichy in the south, on the other hand, became the capital of capitalist France.

After negotiations between Pétain and Darlan, a compromise was reached, a coalition government was formed, and power was divided between southern France and the colonies. But both Pétain and Darlan were disgusted with parliamentary democracy, believing that parliament was responsible for the "catastrophe" of failure, and some even said that defeat was more beneficial than victory, because defeat destroyed a "disgraceful parliamentary system".

On August 10, 1940, at Reival's suggestion, Vichy France held a joint session of the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies. By an absolute majority of 569 votes to 80, the Constitution-Making Decree was adopted, giving Petain full powers to draft a new constitution. From 11 July, Pétain issued three successive constitutional decrees. The first decree declared Petain the head of the "French state" and sole power in France. Pétain had legislative power, the power to appoint all military and political offices, and the full power of head of state; The third decree provides: The original Senate and House of Representatives were to adjourn until further notice. Within two days, the President and Prime Minister of the Republic were abolished, the activities of the National Assembly were suspended, all executive, legislative, and judicial powers were concentrated in the head of state, Pétain, and even the word "Republic" was replaced by the "French State". The 70-year-old Third Republic came to an end.

In the process, in order to curry favor with Darlan, another powerful figure in France, Dahl was appointed Minister of the Navy and Governor of the North African colonies in exchange for politics. It was given the status of a local candidate. In the process, the group of people who fled to England during the war in Europe, including De Gaulle and Gammerin, were all kicked away by Petain, and soon after De Gaulle went into exile in England again.

The "free" and "democratic" Third Republic of France collapsed, and Petain's government began its military rule in France. In order to maintain their rule, the southern French frantically persecuted the French Communist Party in the areas under their control. And out of the need for its own political interests, Germany, which is close at hand, does not care about this and does not interfere. As a result, the contradiction between the south and the north is increasing.

Unlike in history, Hannah was not interested in political changes in southern France. She also did not want to interfere too much in the internal affairs of France. Capitalism and socialism are natural rivals, and after the split, both regard each other as mortal enemies. When helping the French Communist Party to establish a "democratic France", Germany confiscated the local French capitalists and handed them over to the French Communist Party for nationalization, but also to the local large landowners. The land was confiscated and then converted to local farmers. And the policy of not killing any of these capitalists and landlord family members whose interests have been seriously damaged is to be locked up, and then exiled to southern France at an appropriate time.

As a result, the exiles, who lost their wealth, became opposed to the French Communist Party in southern France. The strongest supporters of Pétain's junta also intensified the confrontation between North and South France, which, over time, would sooner or later turn into hatred.

Hannah knew very well that France and Germany were feuding, and that after France was divided in two, if Germany interfered too much in the internal affairs of South France and North France, it would only make the two countries join forces against the enemy. Therefore, after the announcement of the withdrawal, the German side retreated completely, and only maintained a garrison in the area of the former Maginot Line as a deterrent.

The "divine shock" also rushed at the French whose beliefs were shaken.

Both the North and the South want to get their own "French Divine Envoy" to prove their legitimacy.

The practice of Northern France was to imitate the Soviet Union, reform Christianity in the country, and came up with a "theology of liberation."

The Christians of Northern France believed that Marxist socio-economic analysis was the principle of interpreting the Bible, that the foundation of political emancipation was liberation from sin, emphasized that Jesus was the "liberator", and demanded that theology should not only reflect on the world, but also transform the world, and believed that it was through Jesus that we understood what true liberation is and how to achieve true liberation.

On the northern French side, it was claimed that Joan of Arc was actually an envoy sent by God to the world, but she was betrayed by the King of France, the Duke of Burgundy, and the Catholic Church, and was blasphemed to death.

Although the "French Heroic Spirit" has not yet been born in France, the northern French have already set up their own French oracle statue in the northern France, and its character is Joan of Arc.

Under the guidance of the emancipatory theology developed by the French Communist Party, the Northern French government and the "French Communist Party" in the Catholic Church joined hands to declare that the Catholic Church would carry out religious reform, and in addition to changing the Bible doctrine as needed, it also declared a large number of notorious religious figures in French history, as well as historical celebrities who were responsible for and guilty of the death of Joan of Arc, including the French king who could not save himself from death, as evil heretics and spokesmen for the devil in the world. The radical French Communist Party even ordered the graves of these people to be dug up, their bones dug up, hanged, and finally burned at the stake for barbecue.

The reformer of the Liberation Theology of Northern France called this act a "purification", and in the process, the radical Northern France even hanged a large number of Catholic religious figures who had been exposed to various scandals, which can be called a holy shock, and one of the most violent and radical countries in Europe. If it weren't for the cruelty of burning people at the stake, the people in Northern France at that time even planned to burn these people alive.

South France Vichy France is also playing the Joan of Arc card, and they continue to add new halos to Joan of Arc in order to show their "piety". The southern French also played the matter of digging up the graves of the dead and sending the bones of the dead to the gallows and barbecue grills.

The tomb of the Duke of Burgundy, who betrayed Joan of Arc, was in the southern French-controlled area, and with the order of the Pétain government, angry "southern French patriots" dug his grave, which had long been visited by tomb robbers because of its age. Only a few remnants of bones were found. In order to show their break with these murderous saints, the "Southern French patriots" did not spare even the tombs of his descendants, digging the graves of several generations in a row, and then sending the bones that had been pieced together several complete sets of white flowers to the twisting table, and after the work, they were sent to the guillotine, and finally put them on the stake and burned, so that they enjoyed a complete one-stop service.

In the process, "rotten and sinful" Catholicism. It is also a key target of southern France. A bunch of degrading priests and nuns are pulled out to parade through the streets, shave their heads, strip them naked, and apply tar to all kinds of humiliations, and their "play" is also eye-opening.

Of course, as happened in Spain, both in the south and in the north, the people were required to pray for Joan of Arc after the meal as a sign of piety. It's just more radical than Franco. They turned the number of prayers into three times in the morning, noon and evening, and the southern French side even set up a special religious police to manage the matter.

Whether it's the South Law or the North Law. Under the persecution of the divine impact, it can be described as a group of demons dancing wildly, and the two families fell into hysterical madness. So much so that the Germans who were watching even suspected that if they continued to play like this, one day there would be a very high probability that there would be a scene of burning at the stake in southern and northern France.

In fact, there are signs of this throughout Europe today. Governments are motivated by the needs of their national interests. They all began to complain about the spread of foreign religions, such as Germany, France, and England. Britain and Germany, two countries with "divine envoys," reluctantly reached a mutually tolerable compromise through negotiations for the sake of avoiding tearing each other apart and causing both sides to lose. The other religions in both countries will either be annexed, like Judaism, or they will be banned from proselytizing, and their missionaries will be directly persecuted by the authorities

The difference is that Germany sends people to concentration camps, France and Britain directly to desert islands, and the Soviet Union sends them to "Siberian labor camps".

In other countries in Western Europe, such as the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Belgium, the faith of the people is now in disarray. Under the impact of the sacred, the domestic religion of a country without the appearance of a divine envoy has become as difficult to gain a foothold as a "false god". Even if the priest of the church gave birth to a golden lotus, it would be difficult to restore the faith of the believers.

The only solution to this problem is to create gods. In the case that Lin Han refused to "give birth", the creation of gods itself is also a technical work, which is extremely difficult, requiring a huge population base of the main ethnic group, a long national history, and a heavy time precipitation. The biggest problem in this part of Western Europe is that everyone comes from the "HRE" system, and it is not one family five hundred years ago, but it was one family a thousand years ago, two thousand years ago, and it is still a relationship.

For the Netherlands, Belgium, and Switzerland, even if the officials want to be shameless, they are shamelessly creating gods like Italy, and it is quite difficult.

As a result, the Dutch followed the example of the Spaniards and began to create gods, the Belgians learned from Northern France and played the "theology of liberation", and the Swiss, through negotiations with Germany, simply acquiesced in the missionary entry of the Saphiroslav religion and directly converted to the Saphiroth religion after obtaining its promise to continue to guarantee the permanent neutrality of the country.

Although monotheism was regarded as a cult by many atheists in later generations and was very disgusting, compared with polytheism, it was more able to unite the congregation and unite the common culture, which in turn produced a wider range of human exchanges and cooperation, and even formed compatible ethnic groups.

Although Christianity was divided into multiple denominations after the Reformation, it was still united under the "God" system as a whole, and everyone still agreed with each other on this point.

But now, this sacred shock made by Lin Han's family has essentially shattered the system.

The invisible God has been hollowed out by the "divine messenger" of the "real" existence and turned into a vase of nothingness.

Today's Europe, now the white world, has been deeply divided in its beliefs and has become monotheistic at its worst. Moreover, the national interests of various governments, the national interests, have become seriously xenophobic on the issue of religion......

One country, one divine envoy (Heroic Spirit) simply tore apart the most powerful cultural unity bond of Westerners.

In Lin Han's words, this is simply turning back the clock on history.

When he first crossed over, Lin Han's idea was just to use World War II. By the hand of Germany, the blood of the entire white world was drained.

But the plan can never catch up with the change, and even the traverser cannot accurately foresee the future after being changed.

Lin Han's plan to redden Europe unexpectedly kept Europe alive and did not shed blood, but it seriously tore the entire white Western country apart in thought and faith, people can be reborn after death, and their minds were torn apart. It's incredibly hard to put back together.

The situation of Christianity in Western Europe was a mess of demons, and on the side of northern and southern Europe it encountered new embarrassments.

On the Nordic side, Denmark was infiltrated by the Saphiroslavs early on, so let's not mention it for the time being. Sweden and Finland are in a dilemma about which god to burn.

Norse mythology has nothing to do with God. God is only a latecomer, a descendant of the Vikings. Before God's invasion, it was Odin who believed and played the "Ring of the Nibelungen".

The clash between ancient mythological history and modern beliefs has left the Nordics faced with the dilemma of whether to be ambassador or valkyrie, to worship God or to hug Odin's thigh.

After a long argument. In the end, the Norse barbarian decided not to turn back and continued to hug God's thigh, kicking Odin, who had already experienced "Ragnarok", to the side.

However, in the last months of 1943, the Nordics were still fantasizing about receiving God's favor to descend on the "divine messenger", and they also carried out great god dancing activities in the country.

It's just that. When they "dance around" like the French and Spaniards, and after a long time without any results, they will be disillusioned and begin to think about honestly choosing "ready-made" thighs to hug.

At this point, Hannah was confident that the Germans and the Norsemen were distant relatives, and that the relationship between the two sides had always been very good, and that it was far easier for the Norsemen to approve than the British.

In southern Europe, Hungary, close to Germany, was boiled by Hannah early, even the king converted to the Saphiroth religion, and Albania was under the control of Italy, and now the religion here is as chaotic as Italy. A similar situation in Northern Europe is Greece.

This country, with its long history and ancient mythological system, is now also faced with the dilemma of God and Zeus.

The Norsemen had the answer "Ragnarok" to help remind them to kick away "Odin, who was already dead in mythology" and hug God's thigh, and the Greeks, although they believed in God, were still lying on Zeus's body to make a fortune, and in Greek mythology, Zeus's family was still alive.

The crystallization of the Greek nation, whether it was the archangel sent by God, or the goddess Athena, is a big question.

Because there is no oracle to support it, in addition to the religions transmitted from England and Germany, the religious beliefs of the non-British and German systems here have also collapsed. The Greek government also disliked the "imports" of Britain and Germany, but it could not come up with the weapons of faith that could resist their religious invasion.

Some Greeks directly followed the religions of England and Germany, and many more were in a state of wandering and entanglement.

After thousands of years of changes, the main ethnic group of Greece is no longer the same group of people as it was 2,000 years ago. It wasn't too hard for them to kick Zeus and hug God's thigh. It's just that if you want God to send down an oracle, you have to dispose of that pile of heretical things to show your loyalty. The problem is that at this time, I was still making money from Zeus and a large number of temples left by ancient Greece, so I couldn't have burned down these ancient buildings directly, right?

Money or God, this is the dilemma of the Greeks now.

If burning down a bunch of unclean things like temples in ancient Greece would guarantee that God would send down an oracle, most of the people in Greece would be happy to do so. But who can guarantee that God will send down an oracle if he does this? If there are so many angels and there are no new ones, then it will be empty of both men and money.

The Greeks are in schizophrenia.

By the time Christmas 1943 arrived, there had been many bloody clashes across Greece. The specific causes are all around these historical and cultural monuments. Some Christians who want God to go crazy are clamoring for the destruction of ancient Greek relics, but there is a serious conflict with the local residents who rely on these ancient relics for food.

Even in the later Islamic world, in Egypt, the green terrorists who dared to sabotage Egypt's tourism industry and attack local tourists, the people who hated them the most, and the people who were the most active in doing them, were always the locals who relied on the local tourism industry for their food, even if these locals themselves were green religionists.

The same is true.

The gods of heaven and earth are big, and they are no bigger than their own money bags.

In addition to the conflict between the fanatics of Christianity and those who eat the food of tourist resources, some people who are not devout enough in God in Greece have quietly taken out statues of Zeus and Athens (originally sold as tourist souvenirs) and began to worship. In the hearts of these people, believing in God is a cult, and only the "primitive religion" produced in Greece is authentic.

Before Christmas 1943, the Greeks were "tearing each other" over whether faith was important or money bags were important, and the whole country was in chaos. Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that they will not be able to win God's favor in this life. (To be continued......)
