Big Time 1958
Chapter 184: different ideas
Few people know that the fall of Constantinople was sneak attacked by the Crusades. This is still a consequence of the separation of religions, not to mention that the two main religions in the Soviet Union are Orthodox and Peace! Did the KGB really kill all the imams?
"I have always wanted to promote the reconciliation between the Holy See and the Orthodox Church. The Holy See did make a mistake in this matter!" John XXIII's eyes were a little sad, and his tone was lowered, "Yes, Constantine The fall of the Fort was caused by the division of the Christian world at the beginning. The Holy See cannot say that there is no fault. Now several worlds have passed! The division between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church should also pass over time, we are a family after all..."
"It's too late..." Serov stood up and looked at the magnificent St. Peter's Basilica, and said sadly, "For the revival of the Orthodox Church, Russia has been committed to liberating all the people of God under the notice of the Ottoman Empire since the day the empire was established, and finally We got nothing, we liberated everyone of the Slavic nation, and today Russia has such a bad reputation, but I dare to say this, including everyone in Bulgaria, Romania, Yugoslavia, Greece, must thank Russia for its tireless efforts The Russian Empire has been working hard to liberate our compatriots and restore the glory of the Roman Empire from the day of its establishment to the day of its death! But our greatest enemy is not the Ottoman Empire, but the so-called allies, if not the British and French forces, today Constantinople has long since returned to Christ's world..."
"Today, the Orthodox Church has become a thing of the past! The Soviet Union no longer needs the existence of religion, His Majesty John XXIII, you are worthy of respect as a learned old man, but this is not a reason to persuade me to relax the supervision of religion! For I have never changed my religious attitude. If I can control it, I can control it. If I can't control it, I will contain it. If there is a chance to eliminate it, I will definitely practice it!" Shelov said firmly. In his view, the two major religions in the Soviet Union were the source of the turmoil. The KGB must not relax the supervision of religions and attack all religious forces equally, instead of making specific distinctions.
What is religion? In order to find a **** who can help solve their own problems, people have tried various methods, but they have failed again and again. It is this simple intention that allows people to interpret the world and exposes contemporary religions in society. The dark side of faith. There is nothing wrong with religious belief, and it is also something that people choose to respect. But those who take advantage of people's sphere of belonging to religion to wantonly deceive their feelings and money cannot be tolerated by all the people. Yes, a statue is a god, and a stone is also a **** after being decorated. Different people have different gods in their hearts, so gods are everywhere. This is a huge impact on people's lives and spirits. But for the ridiculous rebuttals of the villains who were revealed. The embarrassing words are poor, but the helpless expression is very ironic. Should everyone be punished for cheating good people?
"God is God, and God is also God, so whose belief is the real God?" Serov put on a sneer, "The Middle East has always believed that Europeans are colonizers, and Europeans think that they have brought modern civilization to ignorance. Who is right and who is wrong? At the same time when beliefs are opposed, who should we believe?”
"General Serov. You can't deny the existence of God!" John XXIII shouted righteously. At this time, he was no longer an old man who was almost eighty years old, and he could not tolerate any disrespect for his lifelong belief in John XXIII.
"But Your Majesty John XXIII. You can't prove the existence of God!" Serov's face did not change at all, and he was unmoved by John XXIII's responsibilities, "Today's Soviet Union does not rely on the so-called God for its achievements. , there has never been a savior, nor an immortal emperor! To create the happiness of mankind, it is entirely up to us. Some people can rely on the temporary conditions of the Soviet Union not as good as the United States to prove this, then I ask His Majesty John XXIII You, you have promoted a few black cardinals, did you follow the will of God when the Americans sold black slaves?"
"Whether the people choose to believe in the existence of God, should the people choose themselves? General Serov? Even a powerful department like the KGB cannot deprive the people of the right to choose. This is not in line with the democracy that the Soviet Union has always advertised, right?" John The Twenty-third generation could not keep up with the energy of the Soviet powerhouse who was fifty years younger than him, but he was still fully releasing his goodwill. He hoped that everyone had the right to choose.
"But I'm an atheist, and there are so many shortcomings in religion. I don't want to see people pin their hopes on heaven. Instead of this, it's better to focus on building a country!" In Serov's view, religion is not important at all, Only the kind of people who have already eaten and waited to die can pin their hopes on this. Most of the people he met who believed in God in the previous life were old men and women in their 70s and 80s. things above?
"The Soviet Union has always regarded itself as a democracy. If you need the police system to teach the people how to do it, this is not in line with your original intention!" John XXIII has always wanted to make Serov admit his mistakes, whether it is atheism or Christianity, once To let the government enforce it is to deviate from the original intention!
This dialogue put Serov into a dilemma. Compared with this man who has served God all his life, he is still a little too young. If he had known, he should not have accepted the invitation to come to St. Peter's Basilica.
"In general, John XXIII wants me to relax the supervision of domestic religions?" Serov changed the subject. Now he has acquiesced to the fact that he has fallen into the trap. From now on, the dialogue between the two will be a real bargain. price!
Knowing what the other party needs and your own needs is the true meaning of bargaining! Now Serov, who has climbed up from the pit, needs to know what this Pope John XXIII wants from himself.
"I have no intention of interfering in the Soviet government's decision, but I hope that the people of the Soviet Union can choose whether to believe in God or not!" John XXIII slowly stated his purpose.
"Our Soviet Union was originally an Orthodox country. Even if we restore our faith, it has nothing to do with the Vatican. I don't know what your purpose is, His Majesty John XXIII? Are you planning to peacefully evolve our Soviet Union? I will never be an enemy. Be merciful!" Shelov said his opinion unmoved.
"It doesn't matter what religion is, world peace is the mainstream now, and our Holy See is also preparing to improve relations with the Orthodox Church. One thing I must admit is the result of the great schism in Christianity. Catholicism is also very responsible for the hostility between Catholicism and Orthodox Church. The relationship should also end!" John XXIII expressed his purpose very sincerely.
Like this old man who devoted his life to his faith, Serov couldn't find any words to refute him. But there is one thing he knows and understands, that is, John XXIII's idea is good, and ultimately it cannot escape the impact of reality. Even if Serov promised to relax the regulation of religious issues, as the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union continued, the Soviet Union established another The pace of a ruler will still continue.
"It's not impossible, but I also have a request. His Majesty the Pope or the Vatican must agree to me. After agreeing, I can guarantee that the priest will not be sent to prison. As for supporting the priest's work, it is impossible, but it will not restrict it. The activities of the priest, if my request is not met, I will prepare to expand the power of the Religious Affairs Committee when I go back, and I will contact all allies to remove the remnants of religion!" Shelov immediately looked for favorable conditions for an agreement, and it would be best if an agreement could be reached. , If it can't be so long in the future, he can always find an opportunity to clean up the religious forces in other countries, especially Poland.
"General Serov, please say, I would like to hear your opinions!" John XXIII said gently.
"Now the Soviet Union and the United States are in the middle of a cold war, and our struggle is life and death! I don't think your majesty can decide where the Vatican is in the middle. My request is that the Vatican cannot interfere in the religious affairs of all Eastern European countries, and at the same time It is absolutely impossible to elect a pope of Eastern European nationality. If this is not achieved, we will have nothing to talk about!" Serov added at the end, "I can't negotiate, this is my bottom line! I hope His Majesty the Pope can think clearly!"
History seems to have elected a Slavic John Paul II after the 1970s, this man is a Poles, this pope can be said to be the enemy of the whole socialism, and he caused extreme damage to the KGB in the 1980s. Big trouble can be said to have defeated the restraint of the KGB ideologically, because the appearance of this Polish pope has made Poland, which has always been a weak point of the Soviet bloc, in an unstable state.
"The government cannot interfere with the freedom of religion, and I cannot sell the people of God in Eastern Europe to your government!" John XXIII did not expect Serov to put forward such a condition, and refused without thinking.
"Then there is no need to talk about it. The rift between Catholicism and Orthodoxy does not need to be bridged. Our Soviet Union is already an atheist country, and the entire Eastern Europe is an atheist country! God only needs to shine in the Vatican!" He said that he had already decided in his heart to assassinate all the well-known Eastern European priests, especially Poland, after he went back.
"The people need freedom of belief, does General Serov have to be so stubborn?" John XXIII persuaded. (To be continued~^~)
