Sumeru's religious foundation comes from the grass god, and the first thing the grass god did after establishing Sumeru was to make it clear that she would not force others to believe in herself, and even the current mainstream of Sumeru society's "belief in the grass god" itself is just the Sumeru people's unilateral thoughts about the grass god, and Bai Ye has never asked or agreed that she needs to be believed as a god.

In her eyes, the concept of the grass god is no different from the national leader, which did not inject a particularly strong religious color into it in the later period, and the emergence of the Sumeru Cult is more inclined to the social governance of the early stage, and since the appearance of the god-given magic of the Sumeru will, the Sumeru Cult has completely become a normal religious organization.

With the strong national ability of Sumeru's will, there is naturally no need for the teachers of the Divine Cult to personally go to the streets to deal with the social and ideological problems in the country, everyone's mainstream consciousness and ideas have been imperceptibly unified, and the rest can be left to the Sumeru government to guide correctly, which can be said to greatly alleviate a lot of cumbersome affairs that once required a lot of manpower, material resources, energy and time to do.

"This problem is indeed very serious, today's Sumeru is no longer the Sumeru it once was, and now Sumeru is divided into the following government agencies under the interference of Empress Elena."

The Pope of God, who was seated at the front of the conference hall, had a serious face, and his words were even more serious: "They are the Sumeru Military Department in charge of Sumeru's national defense construction, and General O'Lelan is responsible for leading his subordinates, and he is divided into several branches, including the Technology Research and Development Department, the Tactical Strategy Development Department, the Military Integration Intelligence Department and other departments. ”

"The Sumeru Akademiya, which is responsible for the research and development of Sumeru technology, not only has the authority to directly allocate all the resources of the country, all the management rights of educational institutions, and has the right to directly use the operation of the industrial world, but also has the authority to directly contact the Lord of the Grass God - in other words, the Akademiya's hidden influence in the country is no weaker than that of the Sumeru coalition government in today's country."

"There is also the Sumeru Coalition Government, which is responsible for the coordination and control of domestic society, the institution that Empress Elena personally led when the country was founded, what kind of influence it has in Sumeru, I believe I don't say that you have all understood - and our Sumeru Church and her governing body were built on the same day, but now we have become the only one, if we don't come up with something, I'm afraid that in the foreseeable future, our Sumeru Church will be reduced to a naked existentialist institution."

Speaking of this, the pope's eyes swept over the people present very sharply, and continued to tell word by word: "The three major departments that were established together at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China turned out to be the other two departments, and a new department of a rising star became bigger and stronger, but our church is not as good as day by day and is about to exist in name only, I don't know what other opinions you have?" ”

In the face of this inquiry, everyone present responded silently, but the atmosphere in the huge conference room was silent and terrible.

These problems of the pope have actually appeared a while ago, and everyone knows that if the Sumeru Church wants to continue to grow and develop in a limited environment, it can only use more radical means to expand its influence, but if it does so, it will undoubtedly touch the red line that must not be touched, and the Sumeru Church has fallen into a state of chronic death in a dilemma from this moment, and the emergence of Sumeru's will has accelerated this process.

In other words, the Sumeru Church is essentially an antique product brought by the original country of the people, and in today's modern society that emphasizes unification and autonomy, those old antiques left over from the Middle Ages should have been swept into the dustbin of history in accordance with the trend of history, and the routine of religious expansion is essentially in conflict with the social direction formulated by Bai Ye innately.

If we don't change this new era, we will only be crushed by the wheels of history, leaving no trace – and the problem is that these people really don't know how to change.

"Can we meet with the Grass God-sama and ask her to allow us to leave the territory of Sumeru and go elsewhere to spread our religion?"

After a long time, a church member made a suggestion.

But this suggestion made many people around shake their heads and silently deny it.

Not to mention that this plan conflicts with the isolation and concealment of the current Sumeru civilization, it is still essentially the same old path that it has taken, just like when the Sumeru Church was first established, it can solve the problem in a short period of time, but in the long run, it will only delay the problems that are about to be faced a little.

"Maybe we can try to develop a new sacred technique, our biggest business right now besides religion is the auxiliary medical field, then maybe we can simply abandon the religious side of the field and fully transform into a purely auxiliary existence, like the work that our clergy do in the military today?"

Someone put forward a new suggestion, this idea is indeed much better than the method of changing the soup but not the medicine just now, and it is also very in line with the changes in this new era, but the question is that if this happens, isn't the Sumeru Church completely reduced to a subordinate branch of the Sumeru Military Department?

"We don't want to lose face?"

Under the protection of Lord Grass God, the people in the country do not need medical help at all, and there used to be another job of saving lives and helping the wounded, and now the clergy have become the exclusive pendants of the combat army, and the Sumeru Church has already made it a bit like an auxiliary pendant for the military department to be outcast, and now this is not a confirmation of this statement?

My church also wants to save face!

"So what do you say? Without going down this path, I don't see any new way to do it other than disbanding on the spot. ”

"You're ......!"

"Why can't we choose to create a new path on our own?"

Just when everyone's discussion was a little wrong, a very young and immature sweet girl's voice suddenly inserted into the conference hall that was about to turn into a vegetable market, and when everyone heard this voice, their facial expressions turned to the side, and the Pope sitting on the main seat swept his gaze to the direction from which the voice came from like lightning.

At the door of the conference room, a little girl dressed like a fairy, but with mature eyes that were far from her age, looked at everyone.

The original Cult of the Grass God has now been renamed the first Saint-in-Candidate of the Sumeru Church.

A few days ago, it was announced to the public that she had left the study room after the long study and training period, and began to officially enter the professional position of the Holy Maiden, the Holy Daughter of the Church, who managed the entire Divine Cult - Fina.
