Chapter 80: The Religious Trap
Let's get serious! Although there is no so-called idol worship of gods, after the hierarchical, institutionalized and hierarchical nature of the Holy Light system, the spiritual will inevitably appears in the process of enlightenment, teaching and training of the Holy Light Force.
The essence of this kind of religiousization of the Holy Light is to define and manifest the concept of the Holy Light, to formalize, unify and professionalize, in short, to shape the spirit transmitted by the Holy Light into a model range of so-called justice and axioms with a value that can be accepted by the public.
No doubt! This exemplary standard of so-called justice and justice originates from the successive leaders of the Brotherhood of Light! This kind of scope of the definition of holy light has greatly improved the popularization and popularity of the holy light power, greatly enriched the low-level cornerstone of the paladin, presented various holy seals and skills with a clear architecture, and also enriched the seemingly empty holy light ability system.
However, just as the 'Celestial' Dynasty cultivated, when students at the primary, junior and senior high school stages stood proudly at the top of the global education system in terms of breadth of knowledge and knowledge memory, the problems we had in the high-end education fields such as universities, masters, and doctorates were almost the same as those of the Holy Light Church, and the attitudes of both sides were also amazingly consistent!
The so-called high-level talents cultivated by the education of the 'Heaven' Dynasty are inherently insufficient in terms of research and application, and the lack of attention of the state and society to the research and development of new technologies has exacerbated the existence of this problem! Therefore, we can completely close the coffin and use failure to describe the current education system of the Celestial Empire. And the general public of this country agrees with it too!
Similarly, although after the definition and concept of the Holy Light were standardized, the basic team of paladins of the Holy Light Church has been greatly expanded! However, the patterned and defined concept of Holy Light, after the Holy Light power possessed by the Holy Kagein, has become an invisible obstacle that hinders the Holy Knight from fully understanding the true meaning of the Holy Light in his own heart!
Here we take the famous second-generation Lich King in the world of Azeroth, His Royal Highness Arthas, the former paladin, as an example. It is known that before the purification of Dastansom events. All the words, deeds and manners of Arthas. Undoubtedly, he was a bold prince and a paladin who could be called a model of morality, but in the end, the irreconcilability between his moral concept and the real world destroyed him!
In the face of this eaten by the undead plague virus. The citizens of Dastansom were infected. Alsace, as a prince, in order to prevent. These citizens, who will inevitably be consumed by the plague of the undead and transformed into a scourge of the undead, continue to cause harm to the kingdom they love. So he brazenly issued this cruel order to the Knights of the Silver Hand of the Holy Light Church to massacre the citizens.
From the point of view of humanity and morality, this order is undoubtedly imbued with a tyrannical temperament that belongs to the so-called dictator! But on the other hand, the practice of sacrificing the interests of some people is never a new topic in this world! The fact is that from Mu Yuchen's personal understanding, there is no mistake in Arthas's order, the only thing he is wrong is that he gave the order to the wrong person!
You must know that the Knights of the Silver Hand are not a military force controlled by the Lordaeron Kingdom, but are directly organized by the Holy Light Church, and completely lead a military force! In short, this is a spontaneous formation of a militia! Although the militia was far more powerful than the regular army of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, the nature of their ecclesiastical armament was the source of this disobedience.
The very pleasant cooperation before the Dastansom incident obviously caused the too young Prince of Arthas to unconsciously equate the Silver Hand with the regular army formed and controlled by the Kingdom of Lordaeron, but unfortunately in the end, it turned out that this perfect prince and knight was obviously too naïve about some things!
When there was an irreconcilable contradiction between the interests of the Kingdom and the norms of the Church of Light, the Silver Hand stood on the commanding heights of justice and justice without the slightest hesitation, and denounced the irrationality and abnormality of Arthas! So the young prince made another inexperienced mistake by proclaiming Uther, the head of the Knights of the Silver Hand, a traitor to Lordaeron.
However, in fact, although Uther is considered the greatest knight of Lordaeron, he is not a native of Lordaeron at all, and Uther only followed his mentor Alonthos after the destruction of Stormwind. Fao and Anduin. Salou, who came to the Kingdom of Lordaeron to ask for help, was formed with the knights of the Kingdom of Lordaeron as the backbone of the Knights of the Silver Hand.
Declare a paladin who is not a Lordaeron and is in his possession a traitor! All right! If Uther were an internationalist fighter! This command may not sound so funny! After all, the internationalism of internationalist fighters has never been an issue! Everything is for the great cause of the Holy Light (Production)!
Then everything is as it should be! Uther, who was loyal to his faith in the Light, brought most of the paladins under his command and the Silver Hands out of the city in anger! A small group of paladins who also regarded the interests of the kingdom of Lordaeron as higher than their faith and morality were on the side of their prince Arthas! So our prince alone carried the black cauldron of slaughter!
Is there anything wrong with the great, light, and righteous Uther Paladin? Wood has! Standing on any standpoint! Is it wrong for Alsace, the tall, great, and all-former prince? Wood has! He is undoubtedly a man who dares to take responsibility! So since there is nothing wrong with either side! So what's the problem!? If Mu Yuchen stands in the position of Alsace! How exactly will he handle this incident!?
First of all, Mu Yuchen will also give the order of the so-called 'massacre', but he will not be like Arthas, under the knightly guidelines taught by the Holy Light Church, he will directly order the hands of Silver almost without brainlessness! Instead, the whole Dastansom is sealed off first! Then wait until the city is zoned and screened!
Under the great name of saving the citizens! We can sell dog meat on sheep's heads, and a small part of them try to save the situation! And then in the general sense, first stand on the commanding heights! However, sit back and wait for the citizens to be transformed into undead. Then order the Silver Hand to go up and fill the pit, and then gain the right to act in law and justice! And try to weaken the amount of replenishment that the undead can obtain, and continue to maintain the good relationship between the Silver Hand and the kingdom of Lordaeron!
Ultimately! It's all because Alsace is too young, but he is too good compared to his peers! If His Royal Highness the Prince is grateful for his experience and experience, it is not difficult for him to understand the difference between his partner and his own world! For the enemy, the war is a fist-to-fist contest! And for the roundabout wrist of the alliance, it is not inferior to the fist!
The different choices made based on their respective interests and positions decided the break between Arthas and Uther, and the prince of Lordaeron made a choice that matched his own perception, and in fact no one could be sure that he was wrong! So what will eventually be the Light, gradually. What about abandoning the great prince and the perfect knight? This is the Brotherhood of Light definition and concept of Light. The scope and exemplary results carried out!
We can say that the Alsace who finally uplifted, the Frost Sorrow, split into two personalities! The first is Arthas, who thinks that there is nothing wrong with choosing for the benefit of the kingdom of Lordaeron! The other is naturally under the norms of the Church of Light. The Alsace who thinks he's really wrong!
Definition and concept of the Holy Light in the Brotherhood of Light. with the national interests of the kingdom of Lordaeron. When the same horizontal line coincides, the two beliefs are in close harmony with each other, and the perfect prince and knight are constructed! However, when the two began to clash! The former became a confusing and distracting Alsace. The impurities of the latter dominate in the heart!
Absolute justice and justice? People with a little brains understand! This kind of thing has never appeared in humans, and it is absolutely impossible to exist! The clash of ideas in the spiritual will disturbs Arthas's firm heart, and then you can't help but start self-doubt! Princes and knights, who were not as mature as they seemed, eventually fell into their own struggle with themselves!
So let's look the other way around! When the Brotherhood of Light first formulated the definition and concept of the Light, did it have this possible problem in mind? Faithful to faith or true to the will and desires of one's heart!? A powerhouse who can build the Holy Light into a ladder class system! With the experience and wisdom of life, it is impossible to ignore this point!
The glorious nature of the Light is indelible! But that doesn't mean that human beings can't add a little bit of their own selfish goods to this pure but vague concept! Obviously, the description of justice and justice symbolized by the Holy Light in the Paladin's professional system has added some private content to it! These bootleggies are noble! Likewise, its existence is cruel!
Want to get the Light! You have to build your own beliefs! This belief is rooted in the will of the Paladin! Infinitely strong yet infinitely vulnerable! It's all up to the paladin's heart! Through the definition of the concept of the Holy Light, the Brotherhood of the Holy Light has essentially formed a religion that exists around the Holy Light and is centered on revising the definition of the concept of the Holy Light!
Doubting and negating the beliefs defined by the Brotherhood of Light and constructed with the core of revising the concept of the Holy Light is the so-called 'heresy' in traditional religions! It is natural that the Holy Light power that surrounds this Holy Light belief and builds the spiritual will will naturally collapse with the shaking of the faith! This is the true strength of the Brotherhood of Light, who dares to teach the Light everywhere in Azeroth!
All because of the righteousness and morality that the Church of Light advocates once you are no longer in agreement! The collapsed faith will naturally be shaken, and the Holy Light power that the paladins have obtained through the Holy Light Doctrine will be strengthened! This kind of natural domination that is far deeper into human nature and in the heart of man than worldly power and divine deterrence! From that point of view! The Church of Light is not a religion! But they have reached the top of religion!
The Undead Scourge and the Burning Legion Invasion! Elves, dwarves, orcs and other alien races are rampant! These are the two main reasons for the creation of the Church of Light! It is also the greatest reason why the axioms and justice established by the Holy Light Church, which is mainly aimed at human beings, especially the former, can be accepted by human beings and all different races! But for the reincarnators who are in the realm of the Origin Realm! Such axioms and justice .......
The Origin Realm is the Origin Realm that is completely dominated by human beings! The struggle and fighting between human beings and human beings is the mainstream of existence in this world! Extraordinary power is the greatest foundation on which the Holy Light Church can be equal to the will of the nation! And such a foundation does not exist in the Origin Realm! Thus the personal will of the so-called national will is constructed! In the highly developed material world, it has become the mainstream!
We also advocate mercy, justice and justice, but compared to the black and white of the Church of the Light, and the fact that these creeds are always on our lips like mantras, the social atmosphere dooms the same practice in the world of origin, and the human consciousness is undoubtedly the same as idiots and cults! This is completely determined by the social environment!
After all, in the West, Catholicism is the largest and almost unique religious mainstream! There are all kinds of Catholicism, and no one is as middle and second as the Holy Light Church! As for the East! The Japanese belief system is incredibly chaotic! 'Heaven' Dynasty! Please let me use the standard noun 'hehe' instead of my own opinion!
So Mu Yuchen won't worry at all! Song Yan has become the second disease of the group of Holy Light Church! After all, faith or something! It seems complicated, but after all, it is nothing more than a sense of identity and acceptance through the two major elements of environment and age! The former stems from the herd mentality of human instinct! The root of the latter lies entirely in the ignorance of youth! You can see it as a foolish trick of the feudal era!
From small to large! Mu Yuchen felt that in his education, the most speechless thing was the textbooks that were constantly mentioned from all angles! Nima! Not to mention the woolly bear on the map that can gather all the ingredients on the periodic table in the country, and the white-headed eagle on the other side of the sea, which can be called the boss of the world, Nima needs to import a lot of food, it seems that the land area seems to be very large! But this blog word! Except for the demographic manifestation! I really don't think about it at all!
Self-will is already in the complex modern society, even if Song Yan, who has been tempered enough, is immature, but she also feels that she has her own life perception! Naturally, there is no such thing as being young and ignorant! Plus there's no such thing as the Church of Light! The Holy Light 'flickering' your environment! Mu Yuchen is very sure! Now that the other party can learn the Light! Then you will be able to ignore the traps of the church! (To be continued......)
