Chapter 20: Maybe a Genius, Maybe a Madman
"The crucifixion of Jesus, as recorded in the Gospel of Matthew, is nothing more than a man-made myth. He died the same day. ”
“……”
"The real facts tell us that there is no resurrection after death, and myths tell us that after death, there is life again."
“……”
"And the ignorant people believe in myths, but not in the real facts."
“……”
"Jesus or the followers of Jesus fooled the people, and the people believed the deception, and so the deception continues to this day, and many people still believe it foolishly."
“……”
"It's a ridiculous world,—— it's not right to say that, there's nothing wrong with this world, it's people who are wrong, it's people's minds."
“……”
"How absurd is man's mind, how absurd is man's spiritual world."
“……”
"If man's spiritual belief begins with believing in the existence of God and believing that God can save him, then man's spiritual world is built on this absurd belief, and human spiritual civilization is starting from this absurd fact and moving towards the present."
“……”
"Therefore, the entire history of the construction of human spiritual civilization is a drama of human absurd thoughts."
“……”
"Man lives to suffer, even Jesus, who made up a paradise."
“……”
"Judging from the social environment at that time, the reason why people believed in the words of Jesus, believed in the existence of God, believed in God, and believed that they could enter heaven after death was because the world at that time was a purgatory, full of pain, and both body and mind were tormented by this world, that is, people were suffering."
“……”
"So, heaven has always been imaginary, and hell has always existed. - The world is hell. ”
"In people's fantasy world, the so-called heaven must be in heaven, the so-called earth is the place where they are living, and the so-called hell is underground. In people's fantasy world, there are three realms, life only exists in one realm, and death contains two realms. ”
“……”
"The road to heaven or hell starts from the human realm, and it comes after death. Good people go to heaven and bad people go to hell, this is the mindset of people. ”
“……”
"From this division of the three realms, we can see how ridiculous people's minds are, but we can also see what kind of situation they live in - to be a good person who suffers, not to be a bad person who indulges in pleasures, to live is to suffer, otherwise, after death, you will not be able to go to heaven, you can only go to hell."
“……”
"Hey, hey, haha, how ridiculous is people's thoughts, and how ridiculous is people's lives?!"
Melinda didn't listen any further.
She walked out of the visiting cell.
The body is weak.
The mind is also chaotic.
The whole person seems to be evacuated.
Hong Ye's words were too much of a blow to her spirit.
She couldn't accept it for a while.
That is a theory that subverts the spiritual civilization of mankind.
Rational and coherent analysis and judgment made him a thinker and a philosopher at that moment, rather than a prisoner on the verge of execution.
This is what he realized when his heart was full of pain in a certain church, when he was looking at the crucifixion of Jesus.
Isn't it ridiculous?
But what he said was indeed true.
……
……
What kind of person Hongye is, Melinda doesn't understand more and more.
This man is too thoughtful and thoughtful.
It is often contrary to orthodoxy, but it is not lost.
She suddenly realized that the thoughts we take for granted are rarely correct.
We are taught to accept ideas that have become facts and that are accepted by the masses.
Many people believe in religion.
But what is the nature of religion?
If Jesus had lived in the world as he is, then people would definitely think of him as a madman.
Perhaps, the police will arrest him on charges of spreading heresy.
However, the times made him.
The social environment in which he lived, the ignorant era in which he lived, made him a son of God, a great man.
But is he the Son of God? Where is his greatness?
Who would have thought?
But the existence of God and the continuation of Christianity lasted for thousands of years.
To this day, there are still people who believe in God, that there is heaven and hell, that there are absurd things.
Are humans really that stupid?
The more Melinda thought about it, the more she felt that the process of human intellectual progress was such a comical history of development.
At this moment, Melinda was deeply shocked.
Hong Ye's words made her difficult to accept, but she had to accept it, it was difficult to control, but she had to keep it in her heart.
Now she can't judge whether Hong Ye's words are correct or not.
Although she has a high degree of education, although she has received the highest education in China and the West, and although she has read the works of countless famous and unknown thinkers in China and the West because of her dreams, Hong Ye is the first person who can speak so subversively and dare to doubt the entire history of human spiritual civilization.
And this person, who does not have much education, is only relatively famous within the scope of an urban area.
If it weren't for him committing something and doing that kind of perverted thing, she wouldn't have been able to get to know him under Luo Feng's "introduction".
It's just such a person who said something that shocked her.
And where did he come from?
- In the church, looking at the crucifixion of Jesus, I realized it for myself.
This is a strange man.
Maybe a genius, maybe a madman.
And why did he realize such a "truth" in front of the crucifixion of Jesus?
Melinda suddenly thought that only the course of suffering can make people understand the true meaning of life, the meaning of life, and even the mystery of insight into the universe.
……
……
Melinda returned to the visitation cell and sat down with a pretended composure.
When Hong Ye saw her, he directly made a request.
"Give me a glass of water, put some sleeping pills in the water, so that I can sleep a little bit at this moment, and then, if you can, you go back into my dreams, and I will tell you about the church."
Melinda didn't move.
"Don't you want to unravel this mystery?"
"I don't want to know yet."
Hong Ye frowned.
"My time is short......"
"Of course I do."
"Maybe it's the last time you and I will meet."
"I know that too."
Hong Ye looked at her and didn't say anything more.
Melinda sighed and asked, "What are your unfulfilled wishes before you die?" ”
Hong Ye didn't know why she asked this, and didn't answer.
"Perhaps, I can help you fulfill your wishes."
"Honestly, not really."
"If you were to die now, you would die without regrets......
"What do you mean?"
"You don't even have a last wish, what is important to you about death?"
"Not really."
"Oh?"
"For me, there is no point in being alive, and there is no point in dying."
"Since life and death have no meaning, for you, life or death is insignificant, right?"
“……”
"But you are afraid of death."
"No, I have nothing to fear."
