Popular science says oxygen is poisonous, and the whole internet scolds me for being sick

Because if it were truly known to the world...

Jesus had descendants. What do people in the church think about that?
In essence, Christianity is a tool used to establish rule by exploiting the image of Jesus.

Religion has always been a tool used by those in power to rule the people.

Why is a unified religion needed to rule the Western world?

Because they are originally different people, different ethnic groups.

Throughout history, there have been many differences.

Even if they were driven down by the army.

Conquering land is one problem, but managing and ruling it afterward is even more difficult.

It is easy to conquer a country, but difficult to keep it.

That is exactly the point.

In particular, these languages, scripts, and various customs are all different.

How do you plan to manage it?
This is where religion comes in.

Christianity is the greatest common denominator among these people in the Western world.

It can be said to be something that everyone can agree on.

These empires were conquered from the lands of the West.

They had to use religion as a tool of governance because without Christianity...

These scattered places have absolutely no sense of belonging to your country.

This is something we have to do.

In Christianity, the most important figure is Jesus.

Because he can be said to be the originator of Christianity.

Without Jesus, there would be no Christianity.

Therefore, Jesus is the most crucial link.

How could a person so full of divinity have a wife and offspring?

It's important to know that Christianity has always prohibited sexual activity.

Whether they are clergy or something else.

They all want people to abstain from sex.

Clergy members are forbidden from marrying for life.

This is a tradition that has continued for over a thousand years.

If you suddenly tell others that Jesus was just like any other person.

Everyone needs to get married and have children; they're just ordinary people.

There's nothing special about it.

This would directly lead to the collapse of the entire Vatican.

From this perspective, even the rule is not secure.

This is where the problem lies.

This will likely lead to various problems in the future.

Therefore, the matter of the bloodline of the saints must not be widely spread.

On the contrary, they would be banned by the Christian Church.

Raymond VI was the head of the Toulouse family.

Actually, I know some of it.

Because the family history was once recorded in obscure terms.

The Toulouse family actually possessed the qualities to be kings.

It is a very noble bloodline.

However, for various reasons, he absolutely cannot be called king.

Just like the Count of Toulouse before him, he did not claim the title of king when he was in Jerusalem.

Because this is a family instruction passed down from our ancestors.

But Raymond VI felt that why his family couldn't be kings.
Raymond VI himself was unaware that his family was actually a lineage of saints.

But now it seems that all of this was predetermined.

……

On the other side, in the Vatican of the Christian Church.

After Gregory X and the judge returned to the Papacy.

This operation was a failure for them.

"Your Holiness, are we just going to leave this matter as it is?"

"I can't rest easy until those heretics are eliminated." The chief judge was arguably the one who most wanted to wipe out those heretics.

After returning to the Papacy.

News of the Pope's failed mission began to spread slowly.

"Your Holiness, there are only two Radiant Realm experts on the other side."

"If we add the ascetics and the Grand Master of the Knights Templar."

"We will definitely be able to eliminate them."

“That’s right. On our side, including His Majesty and the Chief Judge, there are a total of four Radiance-level powerhouses.”

These cardinals were clearly well aware of the Vatican's top fighting force. This was only what was outwardly apparent.

They haven't yet revealed some of the Vatican's trump cards.

Even with the Pope's personal intervention, the heretics were not dealt with.

What a disgrace this is!

However, once the Pope returned, he immediately calmed down.

"A heretic?" Gregory X knew.

The label of "heretic" can actually be arbitrarily placed on anyone.

Compared to Judaism, aren't the Christian religions also heretics?
Moreover, the Pope also sensed a hint of divinity in Audrey.

Although it's not strong right now.

But this is the difference between having and not having.

"As expected, the angels in this small town are behind the Albi Church." The Pope's face turned extremely ugly.

Because the Papacy struggled for many years, it finally gained independence from secular monarchy and grew stronger.

They began to supersede royal power.

Furthermore, it was because Pepin the Great, the Frankish king, donated land to him.

He donated the land in central Italy to the pope at the time.

The Papal States were thus established.

After years of rule, the Papacy has gradually grown stronger and reached its peak.

On Ye Zhen's original historical timeline.

Apart from the First Crusade, which was a victory, all the others were failures.

This is just a prelude.

And shortly after the Ninth Crusade began.

The Papacy is the one truly in decline.

The most crucial event of this event is known to historians as the Avignon Captivity.

King Philip IV of France, in order to challenge the authority of Pope Boniface VIII.

He personally supported a domestic protagonist to become the Pope.

The Pope was forced to relocate to Avignon in France.

He became a vassal of the Dharma King for 70 years.

The sanctity of the Papacy vanished at this moment.

They have been completely reduced to being tools of France.

Then a series of events occurred.

This resulted in a situation with two popes.

Neither side was willing to submit to the other, and both considered the other to be a heretic.

The sanctity of the Papacy collapsed, and the Pope's supreme authority became a joke.

This is the last thing the Christian Church wants to see.

These two consecutive periods of history can be considered the greatest failures of Christianity.

It was also the source of its decline.

Why that timeline in the Relic Mirror?

It has to be now.

This was a crucial historical period that influenced later generations of Christianity.

If the Crusades were all successful.

There might not have been a dual pope system later on.

Christianity might not have declined as a result.

Just as Ye Zhen said before.

The result you achieved after changing an event.

It might not be what you want.

To achieve the desired result, you may need to try countless times.

However, this is only in this particular timeframe.

The Ninth Crusade has failed.

The perfect path of Christianity has been disrupted by Ye Zhen.

The course of history has already changed.

It is no longer the perfect timeline they desired.

Now Pope Gregory X thinks...

"What exactly does that angel want to do?"

"Why support the new Crusades and the Order of Our Lady?"

"Are we, the Christian Church, being abandoned?"

If the angels in Angel Town were to step forward directly.

If the legitimacy of the current Vatican is denied, how many people do you think will continue to believe in the Vatican? (End of Chapter)
