Catholic priest of "A Brief History of Humanity" volunteered to travel around the world to spread the gospel and gather believers. Arrived in Japan, but encountered obstacles. Different ethnic groups have different living customs and beliefs. As a Catholic priest, if you want to spread the Gospel, spread it; as a Japanese person, or anywhere, there must be something like a root there. It can also be called nationality or traditional inheritance. Just like when the Chinese arrive in other countries, they will build a Chinatown. Living in the Western world, thinking is also the thinking of the Western world. When they get older, some people will always wonder where their roots are. Then, a person will definitely stick to the things of his own nation. Even after being infused with more advanced or civilized ideas, there are still people who stick to it first. For example, Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin studied architecture in the United States and knew the excellent architectural styles and advanced architectural concepts abroad. After returning to China, the first consideration was the ancient buildings handed down by the ancestors. Explore, learn, imitate, spread. To put it simply, a country with a history of thousands of years is not always full of rotten and backward things. After learning advanced science, you can take the essence of the ancestors and remove the dross.
"Another self-righteous guy." Father Rodriguez came from afar and was moved to see so many believers in Japan. Now there is a name called "XXXX with Chinese characteristics", which means that some good cultural customs, religions and politics in foreign countries should be adjusted appropriately when they arrive in China. That's right, spreading religion is like selling a product. It can't be said that you hire a few salespeople and then you can sell it. Do research first to understand local living habits, consumption levels, policy risks, consumer groups, etc., and then combine local characteristics to revise sales strategies that seem to be successful cases in other countries. Rodriguez has neither knowledge of Japanese history (I guess) nor a tendency to want to fit in (learn Japanese well, fall in love with Japanese food, make many Japanese friends, etc.), he just wants to dump the gospel of Jesus and he will be saved You are in fire and water, and other things are not his concern.
"Paul took the "Old Testament Genesis" in Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to obey the serpent's instigation, ate the fruit of the tree of wisdom, and understood the shame of being naked (in fact, they had sex with Adam and gave birth to a child), This originally bland legend is called the original sin of man. Since sexual intercourse is a sin, everyone is born guilty. Because man is sinful, God punishes men for sweating and earning bread, and women for procreation Pain is passed down from generation to generation. This is the formulation of the "Old Testament". Of course, this is not a terrible thing, because people have survived from generation to generation. The most terrible thing is that original sin also corrupts everyone's soul and returns after death. Without going to God, God sympathized with everyone to carry this original sin, so he sent his only begotten son Jesus to the world, went to the cross, and used his blood to atone for the sins of mortals in the world. Since then As long as a person believes in the word of God and our Lord Jesus, his soul can be saved. This is a sensational doctrine. In their sermons, missionaries of later generations vividly preached the story of the Lord Jesus going to the cross to redeem the original sin of the world. , Fools and Fools are listening to tears below." "From Idealism to Empiricism"
If someone suffers because of you, would you give up your beliefs or something to save others? The first thing I want to say is that no matter what your final act is, the suffering of others is not because of you, it is the crime of those murderers, the crime of those dictatorial monarchs, but in the tone of threat it becomes your crime. , which is ridiculous. Then the discussion is, if I am willing to sacrifice something of myself so that it can save others, am I willing to sacrifice it? There is a fictional story in an episode of the British drama Black Mirror. A gang of gangsters kidnap the princess and demand that the princess be released if the prime minister has sex with a pig. If you were the prime minister, would you sacrifice yourself to have sex with a pig in order to save the princess? Maybe not, but you can make a pretence, just edit the video and edit it. Then another hypothesis, what if the terrorists asked the Prime Minister to exchange a nuclear warhead for the princess' life? There is no standard answer.
Compared with the two priests, Yoshijiro is symbolic.
