Chapter 241: Otherworldly Religion
Li Changsheng said with a smile: "And for the religions of Western Europe, the gods in their classics are the creators of all living beings, who created this universe, this heaven and earth, and created human beings, and their gods are omnipotent, so since their gods are omnipotent, then who created their gods?" ”
The fourth elder and Mai Lize were stunned for a moment.
Feng Lao said: "If there is something that can create an omnipotent god, and then this god creates them, then this god cannot be regarded as omnipotent in the true sense. ”
"Not bad." Li Changsheng nodded and said: "Daomen Taishang Laojun was born in response to the 'Dao', and is itself the embodiment of the reality of the 'Dao', then the 'Heavenly Dao' is omnipotent, because even the Taishang Laojun is also a part of the nature of all things, using the same theory, to apply it to the religions of Western Europe, if their gods are also produced from the Heavenly Dao, then isn't the 'Heavenly Dao' more powerful than their gods?" Aren't their gods also living in the 'Heavenly Dao'? ”
Mai Lize thought for a moment and said, "Then according to what you say, their 'gods' are not produced in this way?" ”
"Of course not...... If their gods are born in this way, how can they think that their gods are omnipotent? Acknowledging that there are gods who created them, then their gods cannot be omnipotent. ”
Feng Lao smiled "haha" and said: "Their gods are produced by relying on the power of faith, and they are the products of the collection of the minds of all beings. ”
"Yes." Li Changsheng nodded and said: "The power of faith, it is mysterious, in fact, it is the same as the five senses, flowers are fragrant, feces are smelly, you can't tell why, but you can clearly distinguish that this power of faith, that is, the so-called mental power of all beings, is gathered together in the dark to form their 'gods'." ”
Mental power refers to all the power that the human mind can produce. The power of faith is part of the power of the mind, but the power of the mind is more than just the power of faith.
"Therefore, for them, man is also the root of everything, but God is not formed by human change, but by human mind." McLeazer said.
Li Changsheng said with a smile: "It's like being very nervous before you want to do something, but you keep telling yourself in your heart, take it easy, you can, when your mental power is strong enough, you will think that you can really do it, and you will no longer be nervous, this is the power of mental power, there is a saying that if you believe it, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, you will not, in fact, it is not unreasonable, some ghosts and gods, in fact, do not exist in the underworld, but when there are more and more people who believe in his existence, the mental power of these people will make them appear in the Three Realms and Six Realms." ”
Once in the barren mountains, the Mori Po Niang Niang encountered was the product of the mental power of all sentient beings, but as the number of people worshiping the Sen Po Niang became fewer and fewer, the power of faith became weaker and weaker, and the power of the Mori Po Niangniang to obtain the mental power of all sentient beings became less and less.
Li Changsheng said: "In fact, the gods produced by relying on the mental power of all living beings are the most difficult to kill, do you know why? ”
"Why?" The crowd's eyes widened.
Li Changsheng smiled and said, "At this moment, you will kill him, but as long as he has enough believers and still believes in his existence, then when this mental power gathers again and reaches a certain level, this god will appear again." ”
Hearing this, everyone in the room only felt a chill all over their bodies.
An unkillable god?
Some religions in Western Europe have as few tens of thousands of adherents as few as tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands or millions of followers. They gathered together and used their own mental power to create a "god", as long as the believers still exist, then their "god" can really achieve immortality in the true sense, that is really omnipotent.
"If this religion is a cult, then their demons are also produced by the minds of sentient beings?" McLeazer frowned.
Li Changsheng nodded and said, "You now know how difficult it is to deal with a cult in Western Europe, right?" ”
In fact, not only in Western Europe, but even in the Eastern world, such things as the power of faith are needed by many ghosts and gods. That is why, the temple will appear.
Temples and churches are a place where the minds of all living beings are gathered.
However, the difference is that the so-called "gods" in Western Europe are the products that require pure mental power of sentient beings to condense, but the immortals and gods of the Eastern world are human beings themselves, and they rely on their own cultivation to obtain the power to transcend the world, and the mental power of sentient beings is at most the icing on the cake for them, and it will not affect their own foundation.
Mai Lize looked frightened and said, "So, if the otherworldly sect we are dealing with now is really a cult, wouldn't we be helpless against the ghosts and gods in the sect?" ”
"Not necessarily." Li Changsheng smiled faintly.
"What do you mean?" Mai Lize looked at him.
Li Changsheng said: "You can't kill it, but you can seal these ghosts and gods, in this way, no matter how strong the mental power of all beings is, he exists in the Three Realms and Six Realms, but in the seal, it doesn't help, as long as this so-called 'god' is immortal, it will not be created again, unless...... They reverted to a god that didn't exist in the first place. ”
God can be created.
Such words, coming out of the mouth of Li Changsheng, a person in the Dao Sect, were enough to surprise everyone.
But when you think about it, it's true. The Taoist Buddha Immortals in the Eastern World are themselves transformed by people. However, the gods in Western European religions have never been changed by people, and the classics will only say that the gods have turned into mortals and come to the world to preach, but they will not say that people have become admirable gods through their own cultivation.
Mai Lize nodded and said, "Therefore, the 'Judgment God' believed in this otherworldly religion is very likely to be a created god. ”
"If they really need children to do something, I guess it's the children's resentment that makes this so-called 'god' stronger." Li Changsheng said lightly.
A child's mind, the power of thought, is the purest of all, and if it is used to sacrifice a god through the blood or life of a child, then the god can obtain a purer mind from it, and this kind of mind power is much easier than their disciples to convince an adult to believe in this god completely.
Adults' minds are more complex, they will have doubts, they will think at a deeper level, they will doubt, and while believing in a deity, they will also have doubts about whether this deity really exists, so that this so-called power of belief is not so pure.
"That's right...... Forgot to mention a little. Li Changsheng seemed to suddenly remember something, and said with a smile: "In Western European religions, decent gods rely on the power of pure faith, but evil gods rely on more than this one. ”
"And what else?" Feng Lao stopped eating melon seeds, and hurriedly asked curiously.
Li Changsheng said: "It also depends on resentment, people's own seven emotions and six desires, as well as blood, these are all one of the powers that converge into one evil god, in their words, it is called a demon. ”
Mai Lize took a deep breath and said, "I know, I will remind Sister Min to pay attention, now that Sister Min is an undercover agent in the Otherworldly Sect, I believe that more evidence will soon be found to find out the details of this Otherworldly Sect." ”
Tong Tong yawned and said, "I'm sleepy." ”
Li Changsheng smiled "haha", picked up Tong Tong, and said, "Let's go, take you to rest." ”
