"Terrorize the populace with the power of God, such as a catastrophe, and imprison the minds of all with a sword hanging over their heads—that's what I don't like. ”

There was a ripple in his expression, which had been calm since the beginning of the meeting, and the slight fluctuations were fleeting, and the parties themselves may not have realized it, but the Holy Maiden of Ji Er, who was good at observing others, did not miss this slight change.

It was utter disgust and anger—utterly sincere.

If the gods and their messengers existed only in the imagination and religious texts, then perhaps the world would be in turmoil, and ugly struggles, hunger, disasters, and pestilences would spread all over the land. However, it is precisely with the expectation that "the world is not perfect" and "there is room for improvement in the world", and with the room for imagination to intervene, a diversity of ideas and values can be nurtured so that people can compare, judge, and choose.

However, the gods and their emissaries exist objectively, and go from behind the scenes to the center of the stage, directly exercising direct domination and control over all races. In such a system, there can be no opposing voices, and no one will resist without knowing whether they are alive or dead, because everyone knows that in the face of absolute power, no one is powerless to resist, and it is meaningless to resist.

All uncertainty has been removed, all uncertainty and anxiety have disappeared, all strife has subsided, and the world will survive in a unified system like never before.

Some people may say that such a world is a utopia, right?

But it also means that the world will be fixed, and nothing will change—good, bad, valuable, worthless—and it will remain the same.

"What Li Lin and you are pursuing is such a world. ”

Roland said:

"Intimidating or eliminating any individual or force that tries to change with great force, even if there is a so-called resistance force, has become part of the operation of the whole system, and has become an institutionalized dispute. From time to time, it stimulates social vitality and economic supply and demand, and at the same time, people gradually lose their enthusiasm for change, and the whole society is a little numb and stiff. In the end, even the possibility of improvement was wiped out, and even the 'future that could have been realized' was lost...... Maybe it's just my personal willfulness, but I really don't want to see that kind of twilight world. ”

"You're such a romantic idealist. ”

The Holy Maiden of Jiel regained her smile, and there was a hint of amusement in her tone.

However, idealists tend to ignore reality, if there is no strong ruler...... Then who will run the country?!Without the king, who will manage and guide the people?!Do you want to plunge the world into a whirlpool of chaos?!"

"Let the people decide for themselves. ”

"What?!"

"Everyone is their own king, decides for themselves, makes their own claims, and then takes responsibility for themselves. ”

"You...... Finally...... What are you talking about?"

Her eyes widened once more, and she slumped into her seat.

Roland's face was still calm, and his purple eyes were full of fortitude and passion.

How can we deny the prosperity established by a genius saint who can be said to have produced only one in thousands of years? This genius is so powerful and perfect that countless critical critics, after commenting on the prosperity he has established, can only shake their heads in frustration and leave. The people living in it live in peace and have no intention of resisting. Even if anyone tries to resist and subvert the system, they will eventually be managed by the system, and even resentment and rebellion will become part of the system's operation. It can be said that among all the political systems from ancient times to the present, the upcoming Alfheim system of domination can be said to be the most complete and unbreakable political system, which makes people sigh that there is no way to break this system in the world.

Roland's answer to this conundrum is "democracy."

The only way to fight against the superhuman dictator who is far above the ordinary people is to rely on the awakening of the general public itself.

It is not the princes and nobles, not the politicians and bureaucrats, nor the emperors or gods that form the basis of the state. It's a living person, an ordinary ordinary person. It is precisely because of them, like cells in the human body, who work, live, pay taxes, and pay rents on the land, that the state can exist and the system can function.

If one or two organs (individuals or organizations) can't resist the brain (the dictator and the ruling authorities), then what about the whole cell (the nation) together?

Of course, there are a couple of questions here. For example, if the resistance is too fierce, it will trigger Li Lin to restart the world, for example, if the conflict is too fierce and the populism is out of control, it will detonate ethnic antagonism......

There are too many uncertain unknowns, and the most important thing is whether the next world will leave room for the awakening of the people and the enlightenment of their minds.

There are two prerequisites for the awakening of the people, or the spread of the idea of democracy and equality, that is, the improvement of the quality of the population through universal education and the environment that can stimulate people to reflect on the current situation. If it were an ordinary state, it would be fine, but under the absolute theocracy of Li Lin or the church, it is extremely difficult to nurture the idea of equality.

First of all, whether it is Li Lin or the church, they will thoroughly educate the whole people about the foolishness, and there may be differences in methods and methods, but they will definitely instill in the people from an early age that "all people are born unequal", "the meaning of life is to contribute to the country and the organization", "any antisocial ideas are evil and extremely dangerous", and so on. At the same time, it will control the level of education of the population so that they do not "know too much".

Second, all kinds of violent organs will strictly control society, all kinds of monitors and whistleblowers will be spread to every corner of society, and all grassroots organizations will also take on their own responsibility to monitor the changes in the minds of residents. Under this dense monitoring network, anyone's ideological changes will be exposed at the first time, and then this ideological heresy will first be subjected to a series of social exclusions, such as various difficulties in study, work, life and other aspects, alienation of interpersonal relationships, and deprivation of social welfare. If this person repents at this time, it is fine, if he still does not repent, then various powerful departments will conduct various forms of interviews with him. Eventually, the man would disappear from the world - as if it had never existed, and there was not a trace of a person who had ever existed, and if he was lucky, perhaps some day in the distant future some archaeologist would dig up a few shards of charred bones from the cold, hard soil of the Katyn Forest.

Finally, and most egregiously, is the presence of miracles and gods.

If there is injustice and pain in life, people will be unhappy, angry, angry, and will rebel because of it.

However, if it is "God's decision" and "it is your destiny", can people still have the idea of rebellion in the face of the "unreasonableness" that must be accepted?

No matter who they are, they all have God in their hearts.

Even atheists have a god called "resignation" in their hearts.

The so-called life is the product of countless accidental and inevitable accumulation, and because of this, it can never be coherent and absolutely reasonable. Hard work is not always rewarded, luck can also be very unfair, the same conditions may not always get the same results, life is often full of unreasonable. If you only use a simple sentence of "accidental" and "bad luck", I am afraid that most people will find it difficult to let go of this.

After all, it's like telling that your life has no meaning - whether it's hard work or determination, it's just something that will be manipulated by "chance".

In the final analysis, the concept of karma is simply the product of intelligent beings appealing to their ideals in language and writing.

Effort, frustration, determination, patience, sacrifice, and ideals—no matter how noble the concept, cannot escape the danger of meaninglessness, and the future is always uncertain and unreasonable.

If we continue to hold such negative views and attitudes, intelligent beings will not be able to live.

It is precisely because of this that people give personified images to all kinds of irrationality – God's trials, God's shenanigans – so that the concept of karma can be established.

When the choice of the name of possibility is eliminated, everything is no longer an accident, but a necessity – to name the unreasonable accident as "God" so that he can be convinced and accept it.

"No way, who let God arrange it like this. ”

By putting on the cloak of a god for chance, one can easily accept one's fate.

For example, the fact that I am now dying here is not a meaningless and worthless accident—but a necessity determined by God, and therefore I have nothing to do: it is the result of the judgment of the great will on the basis of all life and the whole world, so it is not a meaningless sacrifice, but a humble and foolish self that cannot deduce a reason. Just tell yourself that, and people will be able to give up resistance.

In order to combat this kind of worthlessness or meaninglessness, people are forced to nurture their hearts.

If there is no god in the world, the so-called "god" will stop at the level of conceptual and psychological sustenance. But here, God actually exists, and the evidence for God's existence is numerous. The fact that God's agent, or the church's self-proclaimed new god, is about to proclaim his existence to the world through the great war that follows will soon become ingrained in the consciousness of the people as common sense.

It seems to be hanging above his head at all times, and he may fall at any time;

It's as if a stretch of a leg can shatter the top of a mountain and a fist pierce the sky;

It seems that just a wave of the arm can cause the world to change, and make disasters and the world together;

In the face of such an incomprehensible and overwhelming force, people will be forced to realize that they are no different from dust – and therefore helpless to be at the mercy of unreasonable fate. Showing the world through the Great War this kind of absolute power that is enough to make people die and silently accept the fate of being ruled by them is the ultimate goal that Li Lin and the church intend to achieve.

In this sense, this is the most important guarantee that is indispensable for the realization of absolute domination, and once it is done, the world will be completely closed, and there will be no future to speak of.
