please make me king

Chapter 1216 Whose God
"Hey, they are all our own people, everyone, don't get excited!" Zhang Shun stretched out his hand to stop everyone's denunciation, and said with a smile.

"This Yishi Duan is quite loyal, but his words are fierce, probably because he was deceived by foreign monks."

"The so-called 'God' and 'God' are the same as what I called 'Heaven', 'Tao' and 'Emperor' in ancient times."

"Although the names are different, the principles are the same, so don't worry too much!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words, and their expressions changed for a while, and they pondered deeply, trying to figure out what Zhang Shun was thinking.

What do you mean?
Is King Shun supporting Catholicism and suppressing Confucianism, or supporting Confucianism and suppressing Catholicism?

A theory of thought is not just a simple theory of thought, but a profound relationship is hidden behind it.

Where King Shun wants to go is naturally related to the interests of everyone around him.

Just when everyone was in doubt, Na Duan became ecstatic when he heard the words.

It turns out that "replenishing Confucianism" and "surpassing Confucianism" were the main strategies of the Catholic Church in China.

Its specific measures are to use the name of "supplementing the shortcomings of Confucianism" to preach, to change some traditional Chinese views, to change their appearance, and to finally achieve the goal of "surpassing the status of Confucianism".

Looking at it now, even the famous King Shun didn't seem to see through his intentions, so naturally the big thing is settled.

However, at this moment Han Lin smiled wryly.

He already knew Zhang Shun's attitude towards Catholicism in detail, so no matter what he said later, he would not be surprised.

Sure enough, Zhang Shun continued to laugh and said: "Daxi people are ignorant, imitating the mind of heaven in vain, arrogating to be 'God' and 'God', they are really arrogant."

"Heavenly people are ignorant and worry-free, and the way of Tao is natural. How can they measure the heart of heaven with the human heart?"

"You..." Duan Gun couldn't help being surprised and angry when he heard the words.

Hit a snake and hit seven inches, dig a tree and dig the roots first.

When the Catholic Church came to China to preach, it tried to replace the philosophical "Way of Heaven" and "God" with the "God" in the religious sense, so by the way Zhang pretended not to know, and instead used the traditional Chinese philosophy of "Way of Heaven" and "God" Religious "God".

"You asked me if I believe in God, of course I believe in God!" Zhang Shun laughed.

"But what I believe in is the God who says 'heaven is perpetual, does not exist for Yao, does not perish for Jie'."

"It's the God who says 'heaven is reason; God is the speaker of all things; emperor is famous for ruling things'."

"It's the God of 'Tianzi Temple for the Emperor of Heaven, Gonghou Temple for Hundred Gods, and His Clan from Qing to below'."

"Instead of the God who 'imitates the heart of heaven with one's own heart in vain', the God worshiped by foolish men and women, and the God who uses the name of God to act as one's reality!"

Are you kidding me, do you know that the ancient Chinese emperors also had the title of "Son of Heaven" in addition to the secular emperor title?
It is not that China does not have its own supreme god, but there is a supreme god who is so high that even officials and officials are not worthy of offering sacrifices.

This god is Haotian God, or called Tian, ​​or called Tiandi.

Although their names are different, their gods are one.

Everyone in the world can trust this god, but there is only one person who has the right to sacrifice——that is, the Son of Heaven!

Therefore, the Holy Son of Heaven can seal the gods of the world, so in folklore, "Bao Qingtian" Bao Zheng, who was granted the title of Emperor Song, can "judgment of Yang at day and break of Yin at night". Lost fate".

Therefore, in a feudal society, as long as there is a pope, no matter how cautious the Catholic mission is, conflicts with Confucianism and even the emperor of the current dynasty are inevitable.

Because there is only one belief in China, and that is the "Emperor of Heaven", and there is only one Pope in China, and that is the Son of Heaven!
"You you!" Duan Gun's expression changed drastically after hearing Zhang Shun's words.

He pointed at Zhang Shun with trembling fingers, and felt a sweetness in his throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted out with a "puchi".

"Brother Duan, brother Duan!" Seeing this, Han Lin hurriedly stepped forward to support Duan Dagon, calling repeatedly.

Unexpectedly, the guy rolled his eyes and passed out on the spot.

"King Shun." Han Lin looked at Zhang Shun helplessly while supporting the fainted Duan Gun.

What is this called!
You just stunned Duan Gun, a Catholic who has made great contributions, in front of everyone?
Seeing this, Zhang Shun couldn't help touching his nose, he never expected that Duan Dagon would play this trick on him.

Although he had a brilliant tongue and defeated this person, he didn't talk about martial arts, and he passed out directly.

Anyway, Zhang Shun is also the leader of one side, so if this matter gets out, he will be bad-mouthed!
Zhang Shun originally wanted to use the Catholics to introduce technology, but he knew that he had gone too far.

He quickly took two steps forward, and explained in a low voice: "Duan Yishi is too impatient, and wants to compete with Confucian scholars on the spot, wouldn't he be humiliating himself?"

"This king is so capable, how dare he offend the world's scholars?"

Han Lin was taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately reacted.

Not to mention Zhang Shun's personal preference, now is the time for the rebel army to employ people, and almost all of King Shun's important officials are of Confucian background.

Duan Gun forced him to take a stand at this time and challenge Confucianism, and the result can be imagined.

"What King Shun said is very true. In the future, please help me if you have the opportunity in the future!" Han Lin pondered for a while, and asked for a vague promise.

To be honest, Han Lin's mind has changed slightly after two confrontations between Catholics and Shun King Zhang Shun.

It turned out that unlike devout Catholics like Duan Gun and Gao Zesheng, Han Lin had many flexibility and compromises when he was learning Catholicism.

For example, according to Catholic teachings, ancient Chinese sages and sages are undoubtedly heretics and will fall into hell.

Similarly, Dante, a Catholic in the West, put pagan Socrates, Plato and other sages into the first floor of hell in "Divine Comedy".

This is basically unacceptable to the Chinese who have worshiped their ancestors and respected the virtuous since ancient times.

Therefore, Han Lin once thought of a compromise, claiming that "the ancient and modern emperors and sages are all born in heaven to govern and educate the people."

That is to say, the ancient and modern emperors and sages are all ordered by God to govern and teach the people.

Only in this way, there is a big problem.

Not to mention how many emperors and sages there were in China before Catholicism spread to China.

Just because China is good at recording history, it can be concluded that when Haotian God and Zhou Tianzi appeared on the land of China, not to mention Christianity, even the Old Testament did not appear.

If this conclusion is drawn according to Han Lin's theory, wouldn't the grandson decide the grandfather?
But if it is true, according to Catholic teachings, all ancient Chinese sages and sages will be sent to hell.

Not to mention ordinary Chinese people, even Han Lin, who received sage education since childhood, couldn't accept it emotionally.

Therefore, he was troubled by this for a long time, until he heard Zhang Shun's judgment twice in a row, and he couldn't help but also had a "perfect" idea in his heart.

Could it be that God and God did not come from the far west, but have existed in China since ancient times?

In fact, the so-called "God" and "God" in Catholicism are actually the God of China.

Therefore, the emperors of all dynasties are all "sons of heaven", and the sages of ancient and modern times are all born under the order of "heaven".

In this way, the problem of the conflict between Catholicism and Chinese traditions is naturally resolved, and Han Lin, who has suffered from conflicts in doctrine, also feels similar to the "ecstasy of two chefs".

Everything is perfect, the only thing that is a bit less than perfect is:

Is such a God still a Catholic God?
