In 2089, the world began to emerge from the haze of war. Two development directions of new life technology have emerged.

Different forces have developed differently, making trade very prosperous, but prosperity cannot cover up historical problems, and for the world, the wounds of most civilizations are still bleeding.

Europe

The Fourth World War, which reduced most of the cities to ruins, was rebuilt on these road hubs and information hubs in the years after the war. It's just that these new cities are unmanned. The population is spread over a vast territory, relying on information networks and mechanical stand-ins to dominate national production. After the Fourth World War, urbanization began to detach from population concentration.

#

The war profoundly changed a generation in Europe. Humans are scattered around stations on the transportation network. Large cities with population agglomeration patterns disappear. Along with the disappearance of many traditional service industries. Relying on network information and external exchanges and cooperation.

Most of the traditional service industries, such as hotels, bars, red light districts, etc., can only be generated in human settlements with sufficient population density. Without these traditional service industries, street gangsters and the underworld would no longer exist. That noisy era is gone, but mankind has not returned to the so-called beautiful feudal pastoral era. It's a dark age that has intensified

#

There was nothing darker in the Middle Ages than the religious system.

The reason why monotheism can replace polytheism in the West and West Asia is because it is more cohesive than polytheism. This religion actively rejects dissidents, and in religious wars, it is more effective than polytheism.

However, there were no monotheistic religions in the history of East and South Asia, and the religions of both China and India were polytheistic. Therefore, there is a very objective reason for the rise of monotheism, and that is traffic.

#

European civilization originated in the Mediterranean, was carried forward by Rome, and then with the rise of maritime communication along the western coastline. The civilization sphere expanded to Western Europe.

Roman civilization was built on the ease of transportation in the Mediterranean. Monotheistic thought, on the other hand, squeezes polytheistic thought from all regions along with convenient transportation. Once a region is taken over by a monotheistic religion, the spread of ideas in that region is a unified worship of a single deity. Rather than polytheism, the worship of multiple gods by different adherents (polytheism is clearly spread out of propaganda).

#

But if there is no transportation base, such as that of a civilization like the East Asian continent, which runs through by land transportation. Monotheism will face a big problem – regionality.

Even if it is the same idea, people in different regions have different interpretations. If there is no easy transportation, maintain a smooth exchange of ideas. Different geographical divisions will define their own monotheistic interpretations according to their own needs. At this time, the monotheists in various regions had to fight against heretics in other regions. (In the concept of monotheism, heretics are more hateful than heretics.) ）

#

When Christianity began to expand in the vast lands of Western, Central, and Eastern Europe, due to the difficulty of transportation in various places, it was directly divided into Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox Christians (mutual persecution)

And this section of West Asia, another monotheistic religion, is directly divided into Shiites and Sunnis, and various small sects (fighting each other). The fighting power of monotheism against pagans has become a powerful repulsion in the face of the regional evolution of information, and this repulsion does not exist for polytheism

#

The religion of East Asia and South Asia is characterized by a unique philosophical view of the world, Taoism in East Asia, Tao begets one, life two, two begets three, and three begets all things. The description of Shiva by the three-phase god of the South Asian subcontinent – all causes and all effects are Shiva. And everything in the world is driven by karma. These two religions, by character, are worshipped by an infinitely extended 'initial concept'.

#

Of course, there is also a problem with the religions of East and South Asia, that is, they are too laissez-faire for people from different regions to deduce their own ideas. This leads to a loose, unconstrained concept. (Under this side effect, India has been ideologically loose until now, while China has relied on the evolution of historical processes one after another, directly abandoning the religious system, and constantly relying on the royal righteousness proposed by Confucius and Mencius.) Add explanations, and finally determine the concept of cohesion, of course, this is indispensable in the tuition fees that have been paid in modern times.

#

In short, religion played an auxiliary role in the early development of human civilization, but it was both the religious thought of the East Asian continent and the monotheistic religion of the Western ocean. There are two sides to civilization. The negative effects of these two religions are not the same. Once a civilization chooses a certain religious ideology, it is the historical responsibility of that civilization to erase its negative effects. This account cannot be relied upon. And with the development of the times, it will be profitable. In the end, unless civilization perishes and the debt is completely wiped out, a huge debt will form on the road ahead.

#

The current situation of European civilization is that the information channels of human communication have been abruptly cut off only by the Internet. - This directly led to the regionalization of European societies one by one.

In modern times, both in the East and in the West, extreme thinking often develops in a social environment of less than a thousand people.

In this isolated small social environment, things that seem unreasonable to the outside world are taken for granted in this small social environment.

#

In early 21st century China, for example, a large number of religions with names and harmonies were on the fringes of China's underdeveloped transportation.

And drug production and drug trafficking, which is a criminal act in the eyes of the whole country, will become an activity with an extremely good mass base in a certain village.

In the story of the blind well, the slaughter of non-local workers and the deception of the pension of the coal mine boss also happened in a certain village, and when the two sides of the village met, when talking about this kind of money-making thing, they used the word 'killing pigs' to refer to it. If you don't have enough money to spend, then go out and kill a few pigs.

As for the United States, the vast territory of the United States is home to many villages. The continental nature of the American state has met with a monotheistic culture, and the United States has almost the largest number of cults in the world.

In this world, after the end of the Fourth World War

Year 1:

With the large-scale dispersion of the European population into settlements, the people in each settlement were extremely psychologically empty due to the trauma of the war, and a large number of people looked for spiritual sustenance, and they all more or less converted to the arms of the Lord. - There's nothing wrong with starting out.

But there are no saints in the world, and people are born with the idea of wanting to influence others. And when this idea is satisfied, it will hold on and not let go. It is clear that the priests are also mortal. When a settlement gradually grasps the spiritual sustenance of all the people in the whole settlement, the priests enjoy the feeling of being relied on by all. In fact, everyone wants to be defended by the stars and the moon. In order to maintain this phenomenon, the priests of the various districts began to try to keep the people of the neighborhood repentant and maintain their own state of being surrounded by everyone. Therefore, the priests in various regions have invariably begun to control their thoughts.

At first, these people did it very secretively, quietly living in the information station outside the area through physical means. The 'Sacred Wall' is a kind of software similar to a network firewall, but the main role is not to shield, but to check everyone's words and deeds.

#

The year after the end of the war.

The daily life of all the people in the residential area is bound by the rules set by the priest, but human nature does not like to follow the rules, human beings sometimes just like to stimulate others, under the enlightened law, this kind of stimulating behavior of others, there is a degree, just a sentence on the Internet 'you are paralyzed'. And in the enlightened period when information is unimpeded, this degree is felt by society.

And when the priest becomes the shepherd who listens to everyone's confession and saves everyone's hearts, this degree is in the hands of the priest. And it's scary.

A priest can plead not guilty of bullying heretics and can plead not guilty of bullying ungodly people. And the whole small society also accepts the forgiveness of a certain person by the priest. Priests hold the authority of crime and punishment.

#

And in the third year after the end of the war.

Because the priest can make any heresy worse than death, it begins to frighten everyone, and at the same time, the priest leads everyone deeper into the right to sin. - So in the third year after the war, there was a ritual of human sacrifice in some settlements.

##

After the third year, the ugliness of these regions can be written in a few books, if you want to write about it

The horror plot of the movie "Silent Forest" burning a little girl, the absurd plot of Sodom for 120 days. are happening all over Europe. And when this kind of thing happens, it is precisely because there are more natural people.

###

In 2088, in the Alps,

Huge artificial underground military base. The top leaders from Europe are holding a meeting. At the meeting, the bigwigs of various families participated in the meeting with light and shadow.

A number of topics were discussed at the meeting.

Topic 1: "The problem of space development." ”

Three hours of discussion were spent, and all parties agreed that the field of space should be developed. They all believe that in this era of dividing up the territory of the moon, the moon cannot be ceded to East Asians. But when it comes to giving money and resources. All parties began to bargain. - There was no new outcome from the discussion

Topic 2: The issue of the hegemon of the earth

It took half an hour to discuss whether the Atlantic region is now on the side of the North American Federation. Still standing in the Pacific bloc that occupies South America,—— the outcome of the discussion is limited cooperation with the North American bloc and mutual exclusion of the Pacific bloc.

Topic 3: That is, to discuss the issue of cults in the current residential areas.

When it comes to this topic. The families present had their own opinions

"There is a shortage of natural man, and the world is already in the era of modulating genes, and in the future we should completely eliminate defective human beings" said at this time in the hall by the head of a certain family from Austria.

As soon as this high theory came out, Albon immediately locked his eyes on this guy, but then Albon's face showed unnatural convulsions, because of this high theory, many forces in the venue actually agreed.

These family members have already undergone concoction surgery. Now I think of myself as a higher human under new technology. And after the war, the theory of descent began to prevail again. The entire grassroots is gradually moving to extremes, and the top management is also unconsciously going to extremes.

#

After the meeting, Albon walked out of the warehouse and turned on the electronic screen. A few minutes later, sixty-seven commune leaders he had organized in Europe had their communications answered. In the newsletter, he announced the results of the vote at the meeting.

These guild leaders were all organizations developed by Arbon during the war phase, which had been growing before the war, and with the strengthening of internal notices in Europe after the war, the guild group had to go underground.

When the play was over, Albon said to the silent crowd, "Guys, we're running out of time, let's get ready to fight." ”

After closing the communication, Albon sighed and said, "It's not time now, but, but," Albon slammed his fist on the screen and sighed: "In the past, why didn't I go earlier"
