Chapter 365 How can there be light in the darkness
"Traditional theology?"

"Is theology still classified?"

"Isn't it all God's words, God's creation?"

Everyone scratched their heads with question marks on their faces.

Overseas theology so complicated?

"Old man, let me explain it to you in this way. Theology is a big system, and it still has some small belief theories. Just like a big family, it has side branches, and some side branches don't depend on the big family to survive."

After Ye Qing finished speaking, he drank the tea in the cup and handed it to the people around him, and continued:

"That kid Niu Li is like a side branch. He believes in deism, and his belief is that everything has an animism, and God is watching the development of nature. The old man, I saw if he had any reaction, so I curiously borrowed the words from the book. Some math knowledge points, ask him if there is anything he doesn't understand."

"In the end, the child also spoke bluntly, and told the old man that although the people who wrote those books were smart and knowledgeable, they were not smart enough. It was so obvious that they wrote their dissatisfaction with the Holy See in the books. It was not because they were afraid that others would not know what they wanted. Is there something to do?"

"This Niu Li really fits his last name."

Hearing what the old man said, everyone couldn't help giving a thumbs up.

It's really an awesome language.

This ox is a real ox.

"It's pretty cool."

Ye Qing smiled and nodded in response.

To be honest, the child really got that surname right.

When he heard what the child said, he didn't react much.

After all, in his mind, science is above theology, so God does not exist at all.

The word God is really too far away.

Far beyond the universe.

Because there is an unknown mystery beyond the universe in his eyes, and God is there.

"According to the child's theory, God exists. Excessive pantheism is wrong. After all, the research and theories of all scientists are enough to prove that there is no God. But excessive science is also wrong, because science also has natural phenomena that cannot be explained. , so he is neutral, what cannot be explained is God’s arrangement, what can be explained is science.”

"Just listening to this conversation between you and Niu Li, I want to go to Niu Li's grave to pay respects. This Niu Niu has gone to heaven."

Peng Yuchang's heart is full of admiration for Niu Li.

This burdock stays neutral and stays so fresh and refined.

In that era of the Holy See, no one who did science and worshiped God was not offended. I am afraid that it was No. 1 in that era.

"Yeah, after hearing what you said, I think what Niu Li said is quite right. The authors who wrote those books are indeed a bit unintelligent."

Wang Sicong nodded and said.

It is said that those who know current affairs are heroes, there is no need to set a dead end for yourself as soon as you make a move, right?

So books that are clearly opposed to theology, aren't they rushing to send themselves to be executed in front of others?

If Nagalilei could think of this, then he wouldn't be treated like that, would he suffer so much?

"If it was in Niu Li's era, there would be nothing wrong with his speech and behavior."

Ye Qing shook his head with a smile on the corner of his mouth when he heard the words, and continued:
"But you haven't thought about the difference between the era of his birth and the era of Galilei and others, and the difference in what he experienced?"

These children, just by listening to it, they feel that those children in the past were not smart.

Niu Li's child was born in a much happier era than Galilei's.

It is precisely because what Galilei and the others suffered and saw was more cruel than what was described in the book, so they wanted to do their best to break the darkness and create a new era.

Ye Qing sighed and shook his head:

"If you haven't experienced that era, you will not understand the belief and persistence in their hearts. In that dark era, the darkness filled people except the powerful and the Holy See with pain and suffering."

"..."

The old man's words silenced the scene.

"Has any of you read Don Quixote?"

Knowing that these children would not understand, Ye Qing thought of a book about that era.

The darkness of that era is written in this book.

As long as you understand it, you can naturally understand the cruelty revealed in that book.

"Don Quixote?"

Hearing the old man's question, several people looked at each other and shook their heads.

Only He Jiong pursed his lips and recalled in his mind, and asked tentatively:

"Are you talking about the knight novel by Cervantes?"

He seems to have read this novel, and all the works of writers and revolutionary mentors seem to have the spirit of the protagonist in this book.

"The novel of chivalry? Is that the one you told me about which is called the first modern novel in the history of literature?"

When Huang Lei heard it, he seemed to have some impressions in his mind and asked He Jiong.

He remembered that Jiongjiong seemed to recommend such a book to him earlier.

It's just that he read this book in translation.

Isn't that an adventure novel?
"It belongs to Cervantes."

"Both Mr. Huang and I have read that book."

"Now that you have seen it, you should be able to see how dark the society was at that time, how tyrannical the church was, and how miserable the people were. But you just saw its blood and crazy fantasies, right?"

After Ye Qing finished speaking, he sighed and didn't mind at all.

After all, today's children have not experienced any darkness, so how can they experience the world in the book.

It's normal to watch something lively and strange.

"..."

"Okay, old man, let me tell you."

Ye Qing glanced at the embarrassment on the faces of the two of them before speaking:
"Then Cervantes was born in a poor family. In the words of the time, his family was the lowest level of the people. Because he had the idea of ​​changing his life, he participated in the naval battle. In the fierce battle He had his left hand amputated and was called a one-armed man."

"However, when four years of life and death were exchanged for returning home, he was taken away by pirates because he had letters of recommendation from the Holy See and the king. Those pirates thought he was an important person, so he became a slave and demanded a ransom. back. But no one came, even if he was a hero on the battlefield."

"Were the kings of that era so selfish?"

"Then Seti Vance has been on the battlefield for four years and lost his left hand. If he doesn't pay the ransom, he should send a letter anyway?"

"Heh... In the age of darkness, people in darkness can't be counted on to provide light."

Ye Qing sneered.

Those people originally thought that Cervantes was a lowly pariah, just because he participated in the war, how could he jump up and change his bloodline.

Besides, Cervantes was not the only soldier on the battlefield, and he died as well.

"Then how did he come back?"

"It took seven or eight years for his relatives and friends to raise funds to redeem him from that place."

"..."

Everyone fell silent after hearing the words, not knowing what to ask.

Fighting for his own country, the result is that he doesn't care about it, there is no bullshit, and his already poor family has to raise funds to redeem Cervantes.

What a blow this is to the already impoverished family.
