At the same time, Europe, Italy, the Vatican.

City-within-a-state, Vatican.

The Vatican, located in Italy, is different from all other countries in that it has a different structure from other countries in the world.

As a relic of the former "Papal States", the Vatican's position is unique among all Christians in the world.

The Pope is the head of state of the Vatican and holds office for life after being elected and cannot be removed.

And the current church state, the Vatican, is not a real church.

At least, in the eyes of the discerning eye, the Vatican is nothing more than a relatively large religious organization.

This country, which does not even have a barber shop, does not have its own industries and resources such as industry and agriculture, and even the soldiers are soldiers of foreign nationality, which is only symbolic.

The secretary of state who deals with political affairs is also Italian.

Even if Italy did not completely destroy the Papal States in history, but was forced by the power of France and the resistance of Christians to recognize the Vatican as a religious state, the Vatican, as a state within a state, could not really have all kinds of power.

In a religious sense, the Vatican is just a friendly symbol of Italy.

However, in the transcendent realm, this is not the case.

Within the Vatican, there is a great deal of power.

The Vatican, where countless saints gathered, has the power to destroy the whole of Italy in an instant.

In the otherworld, the power of the Vatican is comparable to that of a nuclear egg.

In St. Peter's Square, under the obelisk that stands in the center of the square, a nun is praying reverently.

After the prayer, the nun walked through the side gate into St. Peter's Basilica.

The dome with a diameter of more than 40 meters makes the cathedral appear wide and bright, and the well-designed lights that have never been extinguished make the already bright church more sacred during the day.

An old man, praying.

This is the shepherd sought by all Catholic believers, one of the twelve disciples of Jesus, and the successor of St. Peter.

Pope Paul.

As soon as the nun entered the door, the old man stood up, and then, after scanning his eyes to make sure that there was no one else, he immediately knelt down, crawled all the way to the nun, and kissed her shoes:

"My Redeemer, Our Lady, Our Light, Living ......."

"Alright, don't say anything." The nun smiled, a motherly smile on her face, and her palms brushed over his head.

The young nun, who looked to be in her early twenties, made such a gesture to the old man who looked to be at least eighty years old, but there was no sense of disobedience at all.

It seems like it should have been.

"Do one thing for me, consecrate Sister Isia of the Pure Cross Church."

"This is my glory, Sister Isiah, the holy woman of the grace of the Lord, no matter what mortals gossip, it is useless, and the word of God shall be justified by your word—"

Pope Paul spoke awkwardly, his face was filled with adoration, and whatever the nun said, he would do what he said and treat it holy.

......

On the other side, Qin Ren, who was planning to murder another disobedient god hidden in the present world, the fifty-fourth demon god Mao Mo, heard a piece of news.

"Pope Paul consecrated Sister Isseah........ Pure Cross ......"

The sound coming from the vehicle's radio and the driver's scolding because the car turned off were intertwined, making Qin Ren frown.

"Consecration?"

Consecration is a Catholic thing, in the name of God, to convert someone and something to Catholicism.

If you can consecrate things, it is equivalent to the consecration of Buddhism.

It can also be consecrated to people, and the transmission of authority of the clergy is also consecration.

In fact, there is nothing unusual about this kind of thing.

However, the strangeness is the strangeness, and it is the consecration of women.

Whether Protestant, Catholic or Orthodox, there are almost zero cases of women taking up the clergy because it is "contrary to tradition".

It seems that the first example was the Protestant Church, the Anglican Church, which ordained its first female clergy in 1994, and then its first female bishop in 2015.

The Qin people have been pseudo-believers for a year and have studied Christian things in depth.

Although the Christianity of the Celestial Empire was not the same as Christianity in other regions....

There is a difference between Christianity in the Celestial Empire and Christianity in other regions, and the Celestial Empire can tolerate the existence of Christianity, but it does not allow Christianity that does not listen to propaganda and does not listen to tunes, otherwise it will be no different from a cult.

And the reason is precisely because of the historical legacy.

In the fifties and sixties, the then government of the People's Republic of China expelled a group of foreign missionaries who opposed the New China, adopted the Three-Self principle, and recognized the two native bishops who were ordained by the Church itself.

The Vatican, for its part, resolutely opposes the Three-Self and recognizes the Wanwan government, excommunicating bishops who have been recognized by the Chinese government.

Moreover, in 2000, the then pope, despite the opposition of the Chinese people, posthumously crowned a group of missionaries who had committed crimes in China as saints.

and died unrepentantly, refusing to revoke the title of "saint".

Since then, the Celestial Empire has been very tough on the issue of Christianity.

To date, the Vatican is also the only European country that has not established diplomatic relations with China.

Faith? Yes, but the domestic ones have to listen to me.

Love the Lord, love the world, and love the country.

Since you want to make our sinners saints, then don't blame us for our own affairs.

In the Celestial Empire's Christianity, action is independent.

The appointment of clergy does not need to go through the Vatican, but China decides for itself.

In short, it is the division of Panzhen, the princes and kings.

Nominally you are the Pope, you are a religious shrine, but in big things, you are a fart.

Three-self principle, self-care, self-support, autobiography.

The internal affairs of the Church are independent of foreign religious groups and are not subject to hearing.

The economic affairs of the church are independent of foreign government finances and foreign religious groups and do not give you money.

It is entirely up to the preachers of the home church to preach and the preachers of the home church to explain the doctrine and not listen to you.

In the Celestial Empire, consecration, that is, the appointment of bishops or something, will not interfere with foreign forces.

"Ordaining a woman?" Qin Ren pondered, "Pure Cross Sect ....."

PS: Actually, it's very troublesome to write about Christianity, I don't want to write about it, there are quite a lot of Christians in China, and I am afraid of being criticized.

But the pope or something, it doesn't matter, the pope in this chapter is not the current pope, but a 20th century pope Paul.

There's also the thing about my updates.

I haven't mentioned my work before.

Hawkers,I'm just a game UI for a small game company.,The company isn't big.,Overtime is a common thing.,Sometimes I even have to work part-time as a concept artist.。

Usually I go back to my place at 6 o'clock, and it's past 7 o'clock after dinner, and if I work overtime, I go home at 8 o'clock.

The only time that can be updated is this time.

It turns out that my update is to code the update at noon and evening the next day, set the timer, and then update.

And now, at most, I can code a chapter for a noon update, and sometimes I write it slowly, and I have to stay up until one or two o'clock.

Now, I don't even have a single chapter to save, so I can only copy it.

That's why I've been "unpunctual" and "untrustworthy" in my updates all this time.

I don't have enough energy, I can't do anything, sorry.
