Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 889
After the Reformation, in addition to abolishing bishops, Protestants simplified the seven sacraments into two, retaining only baptism and communion.
In addition, Calvin also prohibited Protestants from reciting the Rosary, from worshiping the Virgin Mary, and the mass became a sermon.
The Protestant monks' sermons were a stew of humour, burlesque, big-shot banter, and the Mass was full of gravity.
While insisting on the absolute authority of the Bible and opposing the authority of the Pope, Protestants are establishing their own authority.
Luther once crowned the Virgin Mary with the title of "spiritual mother" of Christians. There are two kinds of believers in the church, one is believers with spiritual life, and the other is believers with secular life.
Spiritual believers believe that all human actions cannot hide from the eyes of God, and God will reward and punish people's actions fairly, instead of following secular pursuits and opinions, what they pursue is the peace of mind and the eligibility for eternal life in heaven after death .
The worldly is the part that belongs to the world, such as the pursuit of money and fame, and the indulgence of lust.
Martin Luther believed in the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary, her soul untainted by original sin.
The secular world questions this point. How can a woman get pregnant without male intervention? This is against the common sense of biology.
The extreme papist said: "Erasmus laid the egg, and Luther hatched it."
The relationship between Luther and Calvin is also similar to that one lays eggs and the other incubates them.
Erasmus was a man of peace, and the reforms he desired were limited to internal ones.
Martin Luther regarded the entire medieval theology and the balance between the ability of its propagandists and God's revelation as abolished, especially the issue of the Atonement, and he vigorously criticized it.
People at that time believed that the key to the kingdom of heaven was in the hands of the church, and before a person entered heaven, he had to wash away all the sins he had committed during his lifetime. What they fear most is the punishment in purgatory after death, so they believe that as long as they use the indulgence, they can go to heaven, and an indulgence can shorten the punishment in purgatory after death. And indulgences can be purchased in churches, so churches and pastors at that time were very rich. Martin Luther found such sayings and practices completely incompatible with the Bible and reason. The buying and selling of indulgences encourages the sinful man not to think of Christ, not to ask God for forgiveness.
Calvinism advocates getting rich, supporting commerce and usury, advocating frugality, advocating restraint of desires, and encouraging the accumulation of funds. It is said that all these are for God and the salvation of souls.
Calvin's "Instuments of Christianity" is not only a masterpiece, but also a masterpiece among masterpieces. It has profoundly influenced the history of the West, and in turn has influenced the entire history of mankind—it is reasonable and legal to accumulate wealth, and private property is sacred. The violation of this article becomes the core foundation of capitalism.
Today, capitalism has come to the point where people live their whole life to accumulate wealth. A person’s value is equal to his personal wealth accumulation. A person’s social status is related to his wealth. All the people on the rich list are " Heroes", "legends" and a model for young people to learn from.
There is nothing wrong with logic, but as Marx said: Capital has been dirty from the day it was born.
If there is a 50% profit, the capitalist will take risks; for a 100% profit, he will dare to trample on all human laws; if there is a 300% profit, he will dare to commit any crime, even risking hanging his head danger.
The pursuit of wealth by capitalists is crazy and reckless. St. Augustine said that "without mercy, faith can exist, but it is meaningless."
The small favors and small favors that capitalists do for charity are for the purpose of granting hypocritical white robes. They not only want profit, but also power and fame.
But they are still mortals after all, although they have long since forgotten that one person is not omnipotent and cannot be an architect, a doctor, and a violinist at the same time.
But he feels that he is very smart, and he can do all of these things. If it is not his problem that others are better than him, the first thing he will do is to suppress the other party, because only he can be the "winner".
He refused to listen to the opinions of experts and insisted on going his own way.
If such a person takes power, the results are almost foreseeable, and he flouts the rights of ordinary people, including the right to life.
If the president in the movie the day after tomorrow hadn't listened to Jack and kept the Americans from evacuating, many more people would have died.
In his eyes, money is more important than human life. People can be regenerated when they are gone. What should I do if the money is gone?
He feels ashamed and insulted when he has no money. As long as he has money, he doesn't care how he is scolded. It is just a jealous complaint from "loser" and "lemon essence". He is completely unaware that he needs to repent.
Protestants have a low sense of sin, but they somehow know that they advocate thrift and restraint of desires.
Consumerism throws away even the last advocacy of frugality and restraint of desires. Every day is like a carnival, using up today’s and tomorrow’s, without thinking about what to do the day after tomorrow, and leaving nothing for children and grandchildren. to think about.
Sometimes human beings attack social Darwinism, but do not feel that they are acting according to this standard.
Erasmus was once invited to be a lecturer at Cambridge University, and he once wrote such a famous saying in Latin:
Vellem eam mihi liberatem fata sinerent natura quant contulit.
I wish that fate would grant me the same degree of liberty that nature has given me.
What kind of people should be eliminated? A person with weak brains may be good at coordinating group relations; a person with weak social skills may create mathematical theories such as game theory.
In a pluralistic environment, the standards of measurement are also abundant, but if you don't have money, you can't see a doctor, and the poor will be "naturally eliminated".
For example, a writer does not want to write too secular literary works, while a capital operator asks him to write works that meet the needs of the public for the purpose of profit.
Conan Doyle wanted to write historical novels, but the public wanted to see Sherlock Holmes. Without income, he had to "resurrect" the dead Sherlock Holmes, and then came "The Hound of the Baskervilles", which is full of horror elements novel.
Erasmus' ideas influenced not only Martin Luther, but also Rabelais.
He spent a free and happy childhood in his father's manor, and later, like all boys, he was sent to the monastery to go to school.
The life of a monk is rigid and boring, full of the shackles of rules and regulations. He has long been tired of it. Later, he began to study Greek, and through Greek, he understood the ancient culture of Greece and Rome.
In Greek mythology, it was the Titans, not God, who created the world. At that time, the monastery opposed the study of ancient culture, thinking that learning Greek was the pursuit of heresy, so the monastery confiscated all the books of Rabelais, and Rabelais changed it in anger. built a monastery.
In the new monastery, he was lucky enough to meet a host who also liked ancient culture, and they were old acquaintances, so Rabelais could finally study ancient culture freely. Later, Rabelais followed the archbishop to Rome, visited Italy, the birthplace of the Renaissance movement, visited many celebrities and historical sites, learned religion, philosophy, mathematics, phonology, law, archaeology, astronomy and many other knowledge, and finally became a learned man. people.
At the age of 36, Rabelais entered the university to study medicine, but it took him only two months to obtain a bachelor's degree and become a physician.
During this period, he published the novel "The Legend of Giants" under the pseudonym of Nacière. After the book was published, it was warmly welcomed by the urban bourgeoisie and the people at the bottom of society.
The first "The Great Story of Gao Kang" takes Gao Kangda, the father of Pang Guai, as the protagonist of the novel. Gao Kangda's mother had been pregnant for eleven months. On the day of delivery, she ate too much beef intestines and applied an astringent. Unexpectedly, the medicine was so strong that the coating was torn, and the child died. The aorta came out of the left ear through the diaphragm and shoulder. When he fell to the ground, he did not cry like other babies, but cried out loudly: "Drink! Drink! Drink!"
Gao Kangda is an out-and-out "giant baby". He has to eat the milk of more than 17,000 cows a day. Before he was two years old, he had an eighteen-story chin. You have to use nearly ten thousand yards of velvet. From the age of three to five, his life is drinking, eating, sleeping; eating, sleeping, drinking; sleeping, drinking, eating.
Gao Kangda's father, Daduguan, invited many teachers to teach Gao Kangda, but the more he learned, the more stupid he became. Desperate, with a blunt tongue. In the end, the big belly had to decide to let Gao Kangda go to Paris to study. He was very popular in Paris, and everyone followed him closely. He was forced to go to the bell tower of Notre-Dame Church to take refuge temporarily, and took the big bell of Notre-Dame Church as a horse bell, which caused commotion in the whole city.
The mosque has a minaret, and the bell tower of the parish is the group symbol of the parish. The bell on the bell tower can not only be used for early warning, but also for assembly.
Bells are ringing when you are resting, when you are working, when you are praying, discussing, holding baptisms and funerals. When there are lightning strikes or robbers, the bells are ringing randomly, until the 18th century. The tradition was abolished. At that time, there was a governor of Bourbon who was fighting against the armed salt dealers, but the bell kept ringing. When the governor finished fighting, he ordered someone to remove the bell, and let The executioner whipped the treacherous bell with a whip, and as a result, the bell rang once every time it was whipped, and "duang duang duang" kept ringing.
When Pomona and Severus followed the priest through the monastery in the mountains, the bells of the monastery kept ringing.
The monks she met along the way all stared at her.
She has a hooded cloak on, but she doesn't intend to wear it.
She was on Severus' arm, and she was stalking where this woman was forbidden to go.
"What are you looking at, haven't you seen a woman!" She said savagely to those monks.
The monks were all frightened out of their wits, crossing their chests to pray for blessings, so they just shouted like the wizards in the East, "Where did this evildoer come from?"
"What are we doing here?" Severus asked the priest.
"Come to see someone." The pastor said without turning his head.
"who is he?"
"A retired priest." The pastor said calmly, with a hint of sadness in his tone.
The two wizards looked at each other without saying anything.
After they left, the monks in the atrium continued what they were doing just now. They looked like a group of mental patients walking.
In Journey to the West, why did Sun Wukong ring the bell indiscriminately when the Tang monk kowtowed in the Guanyin Temple?
Sun Wukong is a Taoist. A good Taoist disciple was abducted into Buddhism and then put on a magic spell. This is simply a religious conspiracy and persecution. He has made trouble in Tiangong, and he is afraid of breaking the bell. , big splash monkey
