The Renaissance thinker, scientist, and philosopher Giordano Bruno, because of his adherence to the scientific cosmology and his opposition to scholasticism, aroused the fear and hatred of the Roman Inquisition. At the darkest moment before the dawn of a new civilization, Bruno was arrested. Roman Catholics tricked him into arrest, and the Inquisition tortured him alive for eight years before he was burned at the stake.

Of course... After his death, he was also rehabilitated by the Catholic Church, but whether the nominal rehabilitation can be offset by the eight years of torture he suffered and the brutal burning at the stake is a matter of opinion.Besides, in the ideological battle of civilization vs ignorance in the Renaissance, if civilization loses, whether Bruno who was burned to death can be rehabilitated is still up to two.

Judging from Joan's expression, she seemed to know who Bruno was, so after staring at the man in black sadly for a long time, she turned to those undead soldiers—if anyone could suppress the fear in her heart, anyone who looked at these The appearance of the undead soldiers cannot but be touched by the heart. The compassionate Joan of Arc, who did not utter any words of indignation when she was burned to death on the stake, but Joan of Arc who yelled "Jesus" six times for the soldiers Tears rolled down, her sad face was full of unbearable and sad, but she did not back down, she turned her gaze to Bruno, and said softly and firmly: "I can feel your pain, I feel the same with you. But, no .”

The TV camera on the helicopter clearly recorded this scene beyond human common sense. Joan of Arc in the flames blocked the undead army that was about to enter St. Peter's Basilica with her weak body and the evil wizard who claimed to be Bruno. Her voice was soft And clearly, it resounded throughout the holy place of the Holy See: "We dead souls should not affect those who are still alive, Mr. Bruno, if the people on the ground are guilty, let those who have the right to judge them judge them."

"Lord Jeanne, do you think that death deprives us of the right to revenge?" the man in black asked.

Joan of Arc said compassionately: "Hatred cannot relieve our pain, Mr. Bruno, hatred can only stain your noble soul." Joan raised her bound hands and pointed to the humans in the square, "The world remembers your greatness, they I know your name and achievements...and know the crimes committed by former sinners against you. People will always remember all of this, remember your nobleness and unyielding, remember the filth of criminals, and invincible time cannot It changes."

"If one day, when people no longer need this holy place, it will be permanently buried in the dust of history because it was abandoned by people, and you, Mr. Bruno, you will still be remembered by people."

"It would be a pity if your noble soul were stained with hatred."

The black-robed man remained silent, and Joan of Arc turned her eyes to the undead soldiers on the field, with sadness appearing on her expression again: "And these painful souls, their existence is a crime committed by human ignorance, if people forget them, People will naturally suffer the punishment of the resurrection of ignorance and sin, which is the path people choose...but at least we can let these painful souls rest in peace and let them forget the memory of despair and sadness."

Joan of Arc stopped speaking, and the two souls who had also been burned at the stake looked at each other silently.

After a long time, the man in black put on the crow mask, turned around, and walked step by step towards the gate of the black hole where he came out. Joan of Arc bowed slightly to his back, as if thanking the man in black for his decision.

Behind the black-robed man, those stiff undead soldiers moved their necks stiffly to look at the top of the cathedral, as if they were regretting something. With the sound of "click", these undead soldiers also turned around and followed the black-robed man footsteps.

The demon still stood where he appeared, watching all this quietly.When the black-robed man walked up to him and saluted him again, the demon nodded slightly in return. Then the black-robed man entered the black hole door, and the undead soldiers returned to the surface where they came out and crawled awkwardly down. The demon still stood there. In the same place, across the open square, I looked at Joan of Arc standing at the door of the cathedral.

The people close to the cathedral and the high-powered camera on the helicopter clearly captured Joan of Arc's slightly terrified expression. The French national hero and Catholic saint who can persuade the army of the undead to retreat seems to be... afraid of the devil!

In the confrontation that made people subconsciously hold their breath, Joan of Arc spoke, her voice was still soft and sweet, with magical power that sounded in everyone's ears, flexible but firm: "Dear Lord of Fear Your Excellency, I did not expect to see your avatar in the world. I just hope that you can remember the agreement with my master, you cannot enter the place where I stand."

There was a sneer full of irony on the devil's hideous and terrifying face, but he seemed not interested in wasting words with this Catholic saint, turned his head sideways, and disappeared into the air without a trace.

The witnesses at the scene were stunned, and countless eyes suddenly focused on the Joan of Arc who "forced" the demon away, but... Joan who successfully retreated from the demon seemed extremely tired, and even her body appeared unstable. , Faint signs of being overwhelmed by the flames around him.

Obviously "forced" away the devil with just one sentence, but it seemed to have added a huge amount of consumption to Joan of Arc. Her self-supporting body curled up, her young, childish and courageous face began to blur, and the flames surrounding her eroded Looking at her body, in a very short period of time, the great French national hero and Catholic saint wilted like steam under high temperature, and even the people closest to the church could hardly see the existence of Joan of Arc.

The time for Joan of Arc to return to the human world was so short. At the last moment, when her body was completely engulfed by flames again, people saw her curled up struggling to raise her head to look at the sky. There seemed to be an expression of nostalgia on his face.

The flames completely covered Joan of Arc, and her body completely disappeared. After that, the flames that came from nowhere disappeared from time without a trace.

Tens of thousands of people witnessed this shocking and heart-pounding scene. Although many people have not figured out what they saw because of the shock of their ideas, a certain sourness permeates people's hearts. Come.

"I remember that Joan of Arc is a hero of the French and a devout Catholic. Why was she burned to death?" Someone murmured and questioned. Not many people can answer this question...Many people study history only for Coping with exams and forgetting when they leave school, coupled with the disadvantages of "happy education" in the white world, the French themselves may not know much about their own national heroes, let alone foreigners.

"It seems to be heresy, it was played in the movie." Someone answered.

"Heretic? Joan of Arc is a heretic? Are you kidding me!" Another person said incredulously.

"It seems to be a conspiracy by the British? Or was Joan sold to the British by some grand duke?"

"Are the French pigs? Why would you betray your country's heroes!"

"Who remembers this, maybe Joan of Arc offended too many people, oh yes, didn't you say that Joan of Arc is a "slut"|"Woman"?"

"fart!"

"To shut up!"

On the other side, there was such a discussion:

"My God, Bruno turned into an evil necromancer? Is that the Bruno we know?!"

"He died a miserable death. It's normal to have resentment. By the way, he was burned to death in the Flower Square!"

"Yes, I heard that he was tortured for eight years before being burned to death, just like the life of the Jews in the Nazi concentration camps."

"Who told him to be a scientist? Scientists in the Renaissance were not a safe profession."

"Why are there so many black people in the undead brought by Bruno?"

"Who knows, maybe because too many black people died in Europe?"

"Hell, there are more Indians dead in North America!"

"Fortunately, Joan stopped Bruno, otherwise Bruno would be recorded as a sinner in our history books."

"That's right... Joan of Arc was also tied to the stake and burned to death, and only she can convince Bruno."

"Why burn the saint, what a wonderful person she is..."

This event exploded on the global Internet that night. Whether it was the army of undead attacking the Vatican or the appearance of Joan of Arc and Bruno who were burned to death on the stake, such an explosive event would be changed even if the worldview of people around the world was turned by the devil. After the wheel, it still attracts people's attention and heated discussions, especially the scene where Joan of Arc was engulfed in flames at the end. I don't know how many emotional Europeans cried bitterly while holding the video player, or they were crying for the death of this European heroic spirit. Encountered aggrieved.

Some Christians or believers of other sects took the opportunity to express their dissatisfaction with the domineering of Catholicism; some atheists held the video captured by the TV station in the event with high spirits. The details showed that although people have souls, they will become dead after death. Demons exist, but God does not exist or does not possess the omniscience and omnipotence advertised by religious believers; most people focus on the cause of death of Joan of Arc and Bruno.

The legendary life of Joan of Arc was quickly revealed by people, and the absurd heresy trial she suffered was naturally discussed by countless people. If death is not wronged, then Joan is as wronged as June Tian Feixue—such a devout Catholic, such a believer who calls out to God when she dies, such a woman who is still alive after being burned to death for hundreds of years The cause of death of the saint who was tortured by burning to protect the holy land of the Holy See was that she was regarded as a heresy? !

With the deeds of Joan of Arc being dug up and discussed, and cases including the scientists represented by Bruno and other unjust souls who died in religious massacres were mentioned and sorted out, although everyone knows that the oldest sect in Europe Has an amazing black history, but can feel the thickness of this black history so intuitively, even the broadest and most optimistic Italians are stunned... The total number of people who died in the whole of Europe during World War II has a history of Catholicism The death toll of religious massacres and heresy trials produced since then is incomparable. What is the concept?

This astonishing reality has led people to discuss whether religion has its justice and necessity. The so-called truth is not clear, and people soon noticed one thing-when religion makes mistakes, it is not Because people are too bad, but religion has too much power.

Judging from today's perspective, even if Joan of Arc, who was a French combat hero at that time, was indeed a heretic, she did contribute to France in the Anglo-French war, even if there was a certain grand duke who betrayed her, even if there was a British People, this traditional European stirrer, caused trouble. Why did the Holy See have the power to burn Joan to death?In World War II, a certain Puritan wanted to burn the American general at that time. Can the Americans agree?

As a scientist, Giordano Bruno, even if he has any problems with academic ethics, he should be judged by the Italian court. What power does the Church have to arrest him, imprison him for eight years, and openly commit suicide? he burned?If religion has always had the power to judge and sanction scientists at will, will the civilization of the earth continue to progress?

Well... After the Second Industrial Revolution, regardless of whether the religious people admit it or not, the power of various sects is indeed not as good as before. Religion has become one of the means for state institutions to gather state power. The Pope is no longer the spiritual leader of the whole of Europe. The churches in the area are also gradually unable to "intervene" in local government affairs.

So, even modern people who live in Europe with a strong atmosphere of religious beliefs, few people remember the high status of priests in the era of the unity of politics and religion. Many places have long since had no tithe tax. It is to maintain traditional habits, and there are fewer and fewer fools who donate all their property to the church... Under such circumstances, when people discuss the black history of Catholicism from a relatively objective standpoint, of course they will not sympathize with those priests who have exaggerated power On the contrary, I feel that these people do not have the kindness of God they preach.

This discussion, which started because of people's mention of Joan of Arc, has affected every corner of the world, every country and every ethnicity, and has affected the Vatican, the central holy place of Catholicism, at an extremely fast speed. In just two days, Joan of Arc The Pope, who appeared but was not willing to die, was anxious and fidgeting—the Vatican’s large land area is impossible to have any pillar industries at all, and the country’s GDP is all based on the generosity of tourists, and the maintenance of a large clergy system depends entirely on it It is the offerings of monasteries around the world, and some sources of funds that cannot be seen... Even so, the income of the Vatican is no more than before. After all, religion has lost to Scientology, which brought industrial civilization to the world. Religious donations from various channels are decreasing year by year. In order to increase their income, the priests have begun to do "consecration" work.

So, as soon as the Vatican incident broke out and the number of tourists decreased, the direct pressure immediately fell on the shoulders of the Pope. To make matters worse, there were reports of ambiguous attitudes from investors and withdrawal from monasteries in various monasteries... Although the Holy Spirit The appearance of Joan of Arc prevented St. Peter's Basilica from being trampled by the undead, but the sword of Damocles of the Vatican's "pill" still hangs brightly above the Pope's head.

Locked in the room and sighing all day long, the Pope understands that this is the moment of life and death for the Vatican... Today's era is no longer the era in which he could act recklessly by controlling the upper-level resources. If it is out of control, not to mention the church, even the "government" of the country or region will be affected.As St. Joan of Arc said, when the people agree that Catholicism has no meaning for existence, the so-called central holy place will inevitably be drowned in the dust of history, but the dark history of Catholicism will always be remembered by the people.

When the pope walked out of the bedroom tremblingly by his own strength, this rare old man seemed to have aged ten years overnight.He recruited a new generation of priests, including Father Hammer, who he favored, and informed these priests of his decision without going through other Vatican elders.

Another day later, on May [-]th, people on Earth once again ushered in another major event that shocked the world this year—the Pope of the Vatican personally led a group of young and strong priests to rebel against himself!

That's right, the pope's operation is really no different from rebellion. He announced live broadcast a list of bad priests in the church related to children's sex interest chain, and announced in the name of the pope that he will These people were expelled from the Catholic Church and claimed that they would cooperate with the Italian police and the church police in the area where these priests live to arrest and interrogate these criminals; at the press conference broadcast live on Italian official TV, the old pope disregarded his identity in front of the camera. Confession and self-defense, affirming that the Vatican will respond to Joan of Arc's prayer to cleanse itself internally, "clean up" the dirty atmosphere, separate from secular power, and have a religious "Renaissance"...

To be honest, losing a pawn and saving a car is not a "sexy" operation. Any politician can play sneakily, but the pope actually stated in the name of the contemporary Catholic pope that he would completely separate himself from secular power. This is not just a matter of horror That's it - the unity of politics and religion is the pursuit of all religious denominations. The Vatican is completely trying to save its own life and smash everyone's pot. Who would do it!The moment Christianity and Undemonstrable heard this, he wanted to rush into the TV and kill that old guy! !They don't want to play a game like the Vatican! !

Of course, other denominations couldn't jump out when the Pope made such an amazing performance and shouted that you don't want secular power, we want that sacred skin...they didn't have any miracles of the saint appearing to defend the holy place Well, after breaking it, it won't be able to stand up!

Religious people are biting their handkerchiefs angrily, while the "governments" of European countries are secretly reassured that the Pope can afford it, while helping to build momentum to paint the dilapidated face of the Vatican... Although it is difficult for Catholicism to do big things in Europe now, the Vatican A docile attitude is a good thing for a secular country!To put it bluntly, this pope is simply the Washington of the religious world, and it should be set up as a benchmark!

The officials of various countries cooperated with the Pope's performance, and they also wanted to find an opportunity to put the devil who caused the European crisis into the obedient Catholicism as a punishing angel. Otherwise, Europe during the entire April period would be too embarrassing, shameful to all countries Now that the presidents and prime ministers are meeting visiting officials from countries in other regions, they are a little bit embarrassed. No matter how they say it, they have to whitewash this crap to get over it; what's even more "wonderful" is the interests of children | children | pornography | American business and political figures in the chain have also stepped on their feet. The old Europeans must drag the Yankees into this "big event" that is collectively humiliating for the developed countries of the white world. I have long seen their cynicism across the ocean. up~

Then, starting from May [-]th, the people on the Pope's exposed list have been harvested by the devil one after another...Even if they fled to other areas or were caught in prison for investigation, they couldn't escape. After making a decision, they were punished by the Vatican The Pope, who was opposed by all the elders, called it a fluke—if he hadn’t made an exposure first and these people hadn’t been expelled, the blow to the Vatican would have been even more irreparable.

It turns out that the Pope is wise, wise and great. After a few days of silence in the Vatican, tourists flooded in again. The tourists were proud to take a group photo in front of the main entrance of the cathedral where Joan of Arc appeared. The potholes in the square of the undead are constantly being studied; Hammer and other priests were inspired to build statues of Joan of Arc bound with hands and feet and wearing flames in monasteries around the world, attracting tourists. Turning back one after another—at least the Catholic Church is still guarded by Joan of Arc, and the dirtyness of individual priests does not mean anything!

Before Wang Lin left Italy, he came to the Vatican again. Twenty days later, the bustle of the past has resumed, and the flow of people is even greater than before.After confirming the current situation here, Wang Lin casually stood in the square and then turned around to leave... He doesn't have that artistic talent, and no matter how precious the artwork inside is, he is not interested in seeing it twice.

What kind of "sanctions" should be adopted against the Vatican? Wang Lin hesitated for a while. It is definitely not acceptable to use rough methods to directly kill people. People who are disgusted and vigilant against opposing emotions, if they use the wrong routine, not only will they fail to achieve their goals, but it may also cause the sympathy of these white saints to flood, and produce counterproductive effects; after thinking about it, Wang Lin is sure that he is not I really want to guide the European people to launch a nationwide movement to break the feudal superstition, so simply start from the direction of making people aware of the importance of restricting theocracy-at present, only the Catholic Church has expressed its position and secular Power is divided, but when people get used to religion becoming an existence without secular rules, how long can the other two big monotheistic religions dance?

Hmm... The main reason for the "soft hand" is that although the Catholic Church in the last century had various "faults", it did indeed introduce modern medicine into the Huaxia Kingdom where witch doctors were flooding at that time, and saved many people at that time. Huaxia people, Wang Lin has to accept this love.

The original sin of religion lies in the unrestricted power of theocracy, in the fact that those in power regard religion as a ruling tool, and in its foundational establishment, lies and deceit. However, it is not that religion has not played a positive role in the course of human history, or in other words It is unrealistic that religious people are all evil, at least in the ignorant period of human civilization, religion allows weak human beings to obtain spiritual sustenance and survive the long and difficult night.

When human civilization enters the era of stars and seas, religion will come to an end. There is no need to be sad or lost. There will always be items or spirits that will be eliminated in response to people's needs. Who would give up their mobile phones because they miss their mobile phones?Who would be willing to give up the steel jungle life of the air-conditioned computer and return to the cave lair to drink blood from the "hair"?The so-called call to return to outdated traditions is nothing more than a dream uttered by those who once possessed special power because they couldn't let go or were unwilling to let it go.

Discussions about demons and religion are still going on on the global Internet. Wang Lin, the source of all evil, doesn't care so much.What Wang Lin never expected was that... he was not the biggest winner in this global disturbance initiated for the purpose of feeding Dilias——

The author has something to say: Religion does have a very big problem. Personally, from the perspective of modern people living today, I regard all sects as cults and heresies -l-

However, it cannot be denied that religion plays a role in the process of human civilization, nor can it be denied that among religious people there are indeed people who believe in theology and devote their lives to make people do good, so they cannot be killed with a single blow.We all know that there are many bad people among missionaries, but there are also good people.

I personally like the religious management measures introduced by our country. Religious people can be active but only in a fixed area and cannot cross the line. If this rule is firmly implemented, it is actually very appropriate~ But well, everyone understands , a group composed of people will inevitably have various problems.
