Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 2900 Water and Dream (3)

  The so-called eternity is like a man who loves a woman and gives her a ring. He said that his love does not matter time, just like a ring that will never change.

But as time went by, the small diamond that he bought with all his savings when he was young was no longer comparable to the big diamond he could buy, and the diamond ring was also discolored and yellowed because of human oil. It couldn't be more attractive.

  People are willing to believe in eternity, believe in the truth, and don't want to be deceived.

  Theologians believe that God is the creator and maker of time, and created time after creating the universe, or at the same time as the universe, so that even if the future is infinite, the past is limited.

   Others believe that time existed before the creation of the world, so time is infinite.

In the second dialogue of "On the Infinity, the Universe and the Worlds" written by Giordano Bruno, it is said that since the power of a body expands according to the volume of an infinite body, this power will not be Infinite forces act on finite bodies, but only with such forces as are emitted from finite parts and at certain distances.

   In other words, in Ptolemy’s universe system, the earth is the center of motion. In order to explain the phenomenon of planetary apparent motion, Ptolemy believed that each planet moves at a constant speed on a small circle, and all the only reasons cited to support their saying that they are equally far away from the earth are based on false speculation, that is, the earth is in inactive state. But the whole of nature is opposed to this, and all reason is outraged. All sound thought and good mature reason condemn this.

  Nothing will remain the same forever, and time will not be like a ring. Sooner or later, it will return to the beginning of creation. A pair of skillful hands will turn disordered materials into an ordered universe.

  Human beings can conceive of an infinite universe, but because of the limited perception, the loss is caused by the weakening of distance. Bruno believes that if the truth is based on a similar feeling, then all objects will be what we think. For example, the stars are fixed on the celestial sphere with glue or iron nails, and sooner or later they will fall like hailstones.

  Bruno's trial lasted seven years, and if he gave up his views, he would not be burned alive. As for the details of Bruno's conviction, I am afraid that there will always be disputes, because after Napoleon invaded Rome, he ordered the transcripts of the trial to be taken away with many works of art.

But in the early scholastics there were references to "defects of the soul" and "sins" such as short-tempered, irritable restlessness, which is a defect, since this defect exists in the soul, even if the soul has not been provoked to anger. It is also easy to get angry.

   Just as a person is called a **** because he is lame, even if he is not lame at the time, the attribute of lameness still exists in him. For even though the action has not manifested itself, the defect is always there.

   "Sin" is the fault of the soul that inclines us to those inappropriate things, to come to terms with it (consensus). For example, someone saw someone else's orchard, and the fruit was so mouth-watering, but he didn't go in and steal it like a thief or a thief because of this, even though he was eager for the deliciousness in his heart.

Desire and will always go hand in hand, and his weak nature is tempting him to acquire what has not yet been known and permitted by his master, but he suppresses, rather than kills, his desire, and because he does not give in to greed, he no crime.

   It is not a sin to covet another man's wife, imagining that she is not married, but it is a sin to act in a way that compromises this covetousness. A higher level of sin is the so-called contempt for God and self-depravity. Lucifer felt that what God can do can also be done, so he rebelled together with other angels.

  Anyone who overcomes desire with will under prohibition cannot be counted as a sin. There are even times when it is not a sin to kill a person because it is done without sin.

  From the point of view of justice, this person really deserves to die, but after killing this person, he sincerely repented. The ignorance of the judge is often the disaster of the innocent, who cannot tell whether a witness is perjured or not. Some people are afraid of going to hell. If they sincerely repent in the last ten seconds of their lives and then die, it would be too cheap for them to go to heaven. Therefore, they must repent sincerely to be eligible to go to heaven.

There once was an orator named Cato Jr. He was famous for his tenacity and stubbornness. He lived a very decent life, unlike the ancient Roman nobles at that time, who only ate what the body needed and drank the cheapest wine in the market. Although his inheritance can make him live very comfortably.

   This is the requirement of the philosophical school he belongs to. If there is no hydra, Hercules is just a sleeping prince of Thebes.

  He rejected the temptation of the goddess of "virtue" and followed the advice of the goddess of virtue, determined to choose the path of virtue.

  The Romans in Caesar’s time had been corrupted to the point where it could not be further improved. Cato Jr. set an example by refusing to wear bright purple, but wearing the black clothing of an ascetic, hoping to change the situation of the world.

Joining the army is the tradition of the Roman nobles. After suppressing the Spartan slave uprising, Cato was selected as a tribune and sent to Macedonia. He shared the joys and sorrows with the slaves, friends, and subordinates. He was also loved by his subordinates.

  But Cato pointed out that he was not in the military, but was studying in Asia. Later, he accumulated fame, and the cities he passed rushed to express his respect and courtesy. After entering the political arena, as a treasurer, he cleared the corrupt moths out of the treasury, making his reputation close to that of the consul.

  Sulla once stipulated that anyone who kills an enemy of the people is innocent and rewarded, and the mob did the work of eradicating dissidents without an army. Little Cato ordered everyone to return their ill-gotten gains, charged them with murder, and accepted legal punishment.

Cato was vigilant against the resurgence of Sulla’s tyranny. Pompey became the most powerful man in Rome through his achievements in suppressing Spartacus and opening up territories in the East. In order to restrain him, Cato decided to run for the protection of the people. According to the ancient Roman system, tribunes had the power to veto the Senate.

   Then Cato Jr. discovered a new and greater threat—Gaius Julius Caesar. Even in the face of the triumvirate of Caesar, Pompey, and Crassus, Cato Jr. was still stubborn to the end. During Caesar's campaign in Gaul, Cato Jr. publicly accused Caesar of all his actions and ambitions in the Senate, intending to use the Senate to make Caesar give up his military power, voluntarily exile or withdraw from politics, but Caesar of course refused. He led a legion to approach Italy, took power from the Senate.

Cato Jr. went to Africa with Pompey’s army and continued to resist, but Caesar continued to pursue Cato Jr. and Skibbio after making Cleopatra VII the Queen of Egypt. In the end, they were defeated. Caesar did not Accepted Scibbio's surrender, and spared Cato the Younger.

   But little Cato was unwilling to live in a world ruled by Caesar, so he ended his life in an extremely tragic way. When Caesar learned of Cato's death, he said, "Cato, I resent your death, and you resent me for saving your life."

Augustine said, "Sometimes dear friends die, and though their passing makes us mourn, the fact itself does give us comfort, because they are no longer free from the sufferings of this world, which tormented them, led them astray, and left them in danger of every kind. .”

  In the dark age, judges will make innocent people who obviously have not committed a crime, and who cannot bear the pain, torture them into tricks. But the judge, out of ignorance, and the unavoidable duty of judging, tortured and punished the innocent, and he was innocent.

  All the things that were once illegal and forbidden, if they are allowed and legalized later, then we will not be guilty of doing these things.

  Similar to euthanasia, we cannot control our own birth, but we can control our own death. While some people relentlessly pursue immortality, some people hope to get rid of the torment of illness.

   Pain cannot judge luck or misfortune because of the length of time. Ben Cooper was not tortured by the Cruciatus Curse like the Longbottoms. But misfortune cannot be called happiness because it is short-lived.

If Isidora's theory is put into "eternity", Albus thinks it is unfortunate. The word eternity originally refers to a lifetime, but now it refers to every moment in the past, present and future , or "eternity" that "transcends time" as Augustine thought.

  Everyone has an order in their hearts, and this order is in the inner mind. Everyone can think about what Isidora did, but no one has the right to execute her.

  Death Eaters often do private executions, and clowns also say "you deserve it" to the execution target, but who gave them the power?

  Locke believes that the care of a community is responsible for individuals or institutions who have supreme power over all people in the country and are ultimately entrusted with the power to make and abolish laws.

   Many people can't understand the International Secrecy Act, but it's not that simple to abolish it.

  When a person’s behavior collides with himself and exceeds the range of tolerance, he will feel angry. As long as he does not compromise, it is not a sin.

  Danson Batar used the Unforgivable Curse on Isidora, is it a crime?

  Pomona stopped "walking" and looked back.

  The wind from the Thames stirred Severus's cloak, and he didn't mind at all how weird his outfit looked to Muggles.

   "What's wrong?" Pomona asked.

   "The centaurs have made a decision, they won't use those arrows." Severus said. "I sent Carter's luggage back to his residence. Regardless, he has made a contribution to this school."

  Pomona was in a slightly better mood, and the centaurs knew that humans didn't like the sword of Damocles, so they didn't tell anyone except Hogwarts about the prophecy that the Mysterious Man would make a comeback.

   "He deserves a decent exit," Pomona said.

   "Am I doing it right?" Severus smiled.

  She is not in that mood now.

   "What were you thinking? So serious," Severus said.

   "Theology," Pomona said.

   "You're a witch, remember?" Severus said gravely as well.

   "I know." She said impatiently.

   "You did what you could." Severus said coldly, "What that kid looks like is out of our control."

  “You know that no matter outside the court or in the court, if the suspect keeps silent, others will definitely think that he will speak against himself, and his silence will make people have associations and reasoning that are not good for him.” Pomona said.

  Severus was confused for a moment, then "You mean…"

   "I told you to keep calm, not to keep silent. I don't want you to suffer." Pomona said.

  He thought carefully.

   “Silence can say a lot, but it’s not like when your girlfriend closes her eyes and keeps silent.”

  He smiled now.

   "Now you're back."

  Pomona kept a cold face, but still ignored him.

  She really hopes that some sage can publish a book to discuss the problem of first love, so that she can read it.

   At this time he quickened a few steps, walked side by side with her, and continued walking along the trail.

   Occasionally, joggers pass by and look at them more, but they are quickly forgotten.

  London is a big city, how can there not be a weirdo or two.
