Chapter 401: Brother Heavenly Who Doesn't Understand Theology

At first, Guo Kang felt that this idea was a bit exaggerated. But after observing more, he realized that many people really think so.

The fact that the Purple Horde was able to re-establish order was a very unexpected circumstance. Many Greeks believed that it was normal for these foreigners to destroy Rome like the Crusaders. Today's performance can only be described as a miracle from the Father. Since this is the case, it is even more important to grasp it.

Men like Brother Patrick were the ones who cared most about Rome and were the most proactive.

It was impossible for the Purple Horde to ban their research. Because Greek culture was also an important part of Rome, and it was impossible for the Purple Horde to fight and destroy this culture - if nothing else, what did you supplement after the blow?

It is much harder to build than to destroy. Just as it is necessary to think about how to end a war before it is started, it is better to think about how to build a new culture before trying to destroy it. There is no shortage of such negative examples in the history of Seris. As with the disruption caused by Protestantism, it can easily lead to the collapse of order.

In simplistic thinking, in terms of ideology and culture, there are only two poles of "governance and chaos", as if as long as there is a unified ideology, it will become ossified; It must be divided in order for a hundred schools of thought to contend. However, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was a time when the common consciousness of the mind was strengthened.

"The collapse of etiquette and happiness" caused the original feudal order to get out of control, but in the various vassal states, the recognition of Zhuxia culture has always been there.

All the textbooks used by hundreds of families are the same set of textbooks, and they all learn the doctrines from the Taishi of the Zhou Dynasty, and even the basic views of the Holy King of Yao Shun are almost the same. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, Guan Zi and Confucius both discussed that "the car should be on the same track, and the book should be the same". They are well aware of these key common consciousnesses.

And after reunification, the controversy in the field of ideas did not disappear. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's "exclusive respect for Confucianism" was not a policy at all, but a suggestion made by Dong Zhongshu in the first year of Yuanguang, that is, in 134 BC.

Why the emphasis on this year? Because the year before, Empress Dowager Dou died. When the Empress Dowager Dou was still alive, Confucianism had already tried once, and as a result, the three dukes who supported Confucianism were killed by the Empress Dowager Dou. There is really no choice but to wait until the old lady dies......

And what happened after that? Back then, Dong Zhongshu was kicked out of Chang'an by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and went to make his brother Liu Fei, the king of Jiangdu, who was known for his brutality and bravery, the minister of state. Fortunately, Dong Zhongshu has a good reputation, and Liu Fei did not embarrass him, so he survived this high-risk post.

Until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, among the various family studies popular in the government and the opposition, no more than half of them can be classified as Confucianism. For example, Zhuge Liang, although he was later called a Confucian general, his family education was the study of Shen Han. Therefore, Zhuge Liang only entered the Wu Temple for a long time, and Du Pre, who was a little later, entered both the civil and military temples. Because Zhuge Liang really didn't have much contribution to Confucian scriptures—he didn't learn that......

In the era of bamboo slips, the Han Dynasty, which still followed the military legacy of the Warring States Period, only managed to this extent, and the court of later generations was even more uncontrollable. Even after the Tang and Song dynasties, the folk doctrines were often changed to Confucianism, and the difference between various "Confucianisms" could be greater than the gap between Confucianism and Taoism back then.

With the improvement of the writing medium, the imperial court's ability to manage ideas is constantly declining. On the other hand, throughout the history of Seris, the later dynasties, the more "lenient" they were, even those notoriously brutal eras were actually compared with recent times, or they were close to each other and had more information.

In the Western Han Dynasty, the imperial court could execute nearly one-thousandth of the total population every year, which was called severe punishment; When Cao Pi came to power, in order to suppress the people's resistance, the government had to deal with tens of thousands of cases of conviction for words every year, and Qianlong had to kowtow to him twice when he saw it.

Obviously, the 2,000-year history is not a simple repetition of dynasties at all, but has very obvious changes and progress. In the face of changes in the overall environment, even a regime like the Qing Dynasty had to restrain its behavior in order to maintain its rule. These imperial courts also have no ability to control their thoughts, and can only scare everyone and make people stop discussing it openly.

Therefore, whether the mind is open-minded and unified, the influence of the court itself is not very great. Most of the time, the imperial court has neither the motivation nor the ability to do it - the state of the information age cannot control it, and the classical dynasty has no ability to do this.

On the other hand, from a historical point of view, the result of the collapse of order is not a hundred schools of thought, but a group of demons dancing wildly.

Fortunately, because the Purple Horde itself has a mediocre level of culture, it is also very destructive to the existing culture, so it generally does not cause any problems. Later, he reacted to it, and has always maintained a position of encouraging integration and supporting Roman culture. The results in this regard are also obvious.

Of course, there are two sides to this outcome. When the Greeks began to ponder their philosophical ideas, they naturally kept what they thought was good and tried to build on it.

Moreover, because their system is really perfect, Guo Kang can't simply move them. And people really think that they are thinking about the future of Rome wholeheartedly - people who are not so loyal will not be so stubborn.

Guo Kang really has nothing to do about it.

Although he stayed in the church for a long time, he was not an official official after all. And then again, don't talk about him, even if Brother Tian comes by himself, it is estimated that it will be useless.

According to the story circulating in the church, on one occasion, Brother Tian went to the house of Martha, a female follower. Martha and Sister Mary were at home, and when Martha saw Brother Tian and his party coming, she went to the kitchen to prepare for their reception. And the younger sister Mary ran to listen to the heavenly brother's lecture first. Eventually, the brother told them that he thought Mary was doing better.

This little story is not just about which is more important, work or learning, but also involves a key issue: Brother Tian actually thinks that it is more important for a woman to listen to the scriptures than to do housework and take care of guests.

Not only that, but he also violated Jewish tradition by praying to women who were considered cursed and allowing them to anoint themselves. These are sacred actions, and it is not "normal" for women to be involved.

In the eyes of later philosophers and theologians, Brother Tian actually made the same mistake as the Serisians—he actually thought that women could be edified, ran to teach them, and encouraged these people to give up their own work as women to listen to the scriptures.

Of course, having said that, Brother Tian is a carpenter in Nazareth, and he understands the theology of a fart, and it is normal that he doesn't know. Therefore, this does not prevent everyone from continuing to adhere to the original philosophical viewpoint.

Last month, I rushed to death, and in the end, I still didn't make up the full attendance. I reflected on whether I had misunderstood my position and the purpose of writing the book.

Every day is the same as clocking in at work, to make up the number of words in full attendance, for which various means are used. In this way, not only the reader looks troublesome, but also tired.

And can it really write something good? I feel like I'm in a hurry every day like rushing to reincarnate, and I'll only write it down as a running account.

Since you really don't have the ability, you don't have to force it. In the future, it will be limited to ability, write as much as you want, and don't make up this 4k word. tortures himself again, and he can't let the reader look cool, it's really a pit......
