Chapter 315: , The Tabernacle of God

The Heresy Inquisition of Rome.
This is the highest-level inquisition in the Catholic world. It was established in 1542 by the order of Pope Paul III. It is the highest-ranking inquisition in the entire Catholic world. It has the right to supervise religious trials in the entire Catholic world.
Different from the Spanish Heresy Inquisition established in 1478 and directly under Queen Isabella, it is mainly used to deal with desert infidels humanely. The Roman Heresy Inquisition is directly managed by the Pope. In a sense, this is also a manifestation of the struggle between the Holy See and the secular kingship for power. After all, the power to determine who is heresy must never fall into the hands of the king. Even if this king is extremely pious.
Paul III appointed six cardinals to form a central court called the Sacred Roman Catholic Court of Heresy. This institution requires defendants who plead guilty to perform public penitent penances, including self-whipping, pilgrimages to holy places, fines and dressing to indicate sentenced persons Clothing for identity. In addition, severe cases will be confiscated, imprisoned, and even burnt.
But that was a long time ago. Although the Roman Heresy Inquisition still exists today, it has no such power for a long time. But it still has an important power, which is to judge whether a doctrine is heresy.
"Master Cardinal, another new heresy has appeared. It was discovered in Spain." A priest dressed in black handed a document to Cardinal Domingo, who was in charge of the work of the heretical court in Rome.
To be honest, it is very common for heresy to appear over the years. Since Martin Luther began the religious reform and began to "only rely on the Bible", half of Europe has become heresy. Also because of "only according to the Bible", all kinds of ridiculous heresies emerge in an endless stream, plus all kinds of careerists, liars and liars are involved. If one day no new, suspected heretical sects appear, it is simply It's not normal.
"Lentini, don't rush to judge. Whether it is heresy or not, we still need to study." The cardinal smiled and shook his head. This is this era, and it is only necessary to be so gentle with the suspected heretics, and to study carefully to see if there is a need to save, and then send someone to persuade or something. If they were arrested before, put in prison, and interrogated, if the heretics did not repent, they would naturally be very warm, and there was no need to shed blood to solve them.
However, nowadays, barbecue conferences, etc., have naturally long since been unable to engage in, and even this "heresy" hat is not so easy to put on people. Because, once you click on it, in case someone recognizes that we are not Catholic, we are Protestant, and then we ran away with a group of sheep that originally belonged to Catholicism, then... Then you let the Pope crown it Where to shear the wool?
So you see, the French churches are all done that way. As long as they are willing to say that they are Catholic, then the Holy See really dare not say that they are heretics. To be honest, most of the heretics back then were far inferior to the heretics of the French church.
Bishop Domingo said this, while turning over what Pastor Lentini had handed over, only seeing a few words on the cover, Bishop Domingo frowned and almost threw it to the ground. . There are two big words written on it: "Revolutionary Theology".
It's just that Bishop Domingo suddenly thought that this "revolutionary theology" is not related to the French revolution, right? Isn't it the French church gang who dare not say that they were made by heretics? It's just that the guys from the French church agreed at first, and they will never preach across the parish. How can they behave in such a way that they are not trustworthy? What about the most basic trust between people?
However, if the real French gang cannot be said to be caused by heretics, and even if they are not keeping their promises, even if they turn back, what can you do? Do you dare to declare that people are heretics? If you dare to be so ignorant, believe it or not, in minutes, the Holy See will become a heresy!
So Bishop Domingo suppressed the disgust in his heart and continued to turn down. Gradually, his hands began to shake uncontrollably, so that the document shook. It was impossible to continue reading this way. Bishop Domingo put the file on the table, folded his hands, and prayed to God: "God, this is really, really terrible blasphemy..."
After a while, Bishop Domingo returned to peace and continued to read the document. He read the document with a ferocious expression, put it down, and saw Pastor Lentini standing beside him, then squinted his eyes and said, "Lentini, have you read this document?"
"Master Bishop, I have seen it." Lentini lowered his head and replied.
"What do you think of the words above?" the bishop continued.
"I think this is heresy, and it is the most evil heresy in history!" Pastor Lentini replied immediately.
"What you said is. But God is still generous. I have to discuss this matter with the Pope and several other cardinals. Until then, this matter must be kept secret. Understand?"
"I understand, the cardinal cardinal."
Bishop Domingo nodded, got up and took the document, went out, and went directly to the Pope's Palace. Go directly to see Pope Pius VI.
In the original history, Pope Pius VI was finally imprisoned by the French because of repeated reversals. In addition to his advanced age, he died in captivity in 1799. But in this time and space, because the French won more simply, Pius VI did not dare to jump back immediately, but instead he avoided bad luck and lived to this time.
Seeing the Pope and explaining his intentions, Bishop Domingo gave the documents to Pius VI. After seeing it, King Pius VI asked: "This is obviously a cursable heresy! Well, you came to me, are you worried that this is something the French parish made?"
"Yes, Mianxia. I am worried that these things have something to do with the French side. Should we write and ask first?" Cardinal Domingo asked.
"No, this document must have something to do with the French, but it must not be made by the French parish people. At least, the French parish guys will not admit that such doctrine came from them. Well, do you understand what we mean? "" The Pope replied under the crown.
Cardinal Domingo thought for a while and understood what the Pope meant. Some of the statements in this "revolutionary theology" are too extreme, full of Jacobin's scent, not only Jacobin, but the extreme left of Jacobin's anger. According to this doctrine, almost everyone in France should be guillotined. Although placed in the world, their guillotine order will be a bit later.
"Under the crown of the Pope, do you mean these things were made by the remnants of the indignants?"
"It's possible, but it's not necessarily." Pius VI said. "Maybe it was the French who made trouble for others. Those French guys are best at making trouble! Let's send someone to copy this document. Give one to the French, tell them we have discovered this heresy, and see their reaction."
Soon, this document from the Holy See was sent to the French Church. Then it was quickly delivered to Fouché, the Minister of Public Security.
Fouché knew that if this version of "revolutionary theology" were to circulate in France, it would definitely be detrimental to the stability and unity of France. This revolutionary spirit did come from France, and many of its views even came from Fouché himself. But now he doesn't want to see such a revolution happen again in France. From this point of view, Fouché is now absolutely counter-revolutionary. And he also knew that none of the Bonaparte family was not counter-revolutionary.
But Fouché also knew that this thing did not pose much of a threat to France today. Because the French have seen similar theories before and have experienced life at that time. Life back then was nothing comparable to what it is now. Therefore, Fouché does not worry that these things will become popular in France. These things will only be popular outside France, and this, at least for now, is not a bad thing for the French.
As for Lucien, he knows more about this matter. He knew that a group of people, including the remnants of French radicals, bought a large amount of land in Louisiana. They planned to establish a so-called land in the New World, in Louisiana, on the land they bought. "The Tabernacle of God", which is an area that adopts democracy and public ownership~EbookFREE.me~ The three Bonaparte brothers all felt that this organization could contain the United States and could also pose a serious threat to Spain. So it is worth encouraging. Although Spain is an ally of France, this does not mean that there is no contradiction between them. Besides, even if there are no contradictions, wouldn't it be normal to cheat the allies?
France has long been drooling over Spain's vast territory in the Americas. With "God's Tabernacle" and "Revolutionary Theology", Spain will definitely be everywhere in the Americas, which will give the French every opportunity.
For example, war will inevitably bring about the best-selling of weapons. The French can sell weapons to Spain while allowing the liberators of the Americas to buy civilian weapons through Louisiana’s "Tent of God". After all, the "Tent of God" is also French citizens with legal status.
On the other hand, the French can also take the opportunity to penetrate the Americas, including South America. The economic structure of the Americas, especially South America, is quite deformed. They do not have an independent economy. Their economy is completely a vassal of the European economy. The so-called "liberators" cannot change this. Therefore, the French have every opportunity to transform the entire South America from the Spanish territory into nominally independent. But in fact it belongs to France.
