In order to maintain their prestige and show their power, the European religious forces at that time strongly supported the ‘witch hunt’ activities. As long as there were informants, they would be rewarded directly, and the informants’ secrets and impunity were guaranteed. So you can frame up wantonly!
Are you so pretty and ignore me? Then you are a witch! You offended the suitor with arrogance? Then you are a witch! Are you couple happier than us? Nonsence! You are all witches! Well, men can't let go, then you are a wizard!
In short, during that time, countless women of the good family who were crowned with the title of "witch" lost their lives. Although history has proved that this is a farce that fully displays the barbaric and deformed side of mankind, it also illustrates the hostility of religion and witchcraft from another level.
To this day, religion and witchcraft are still difficult to coexist. The most direct example is still Africa. Witchcraft is popular in many countries in Africa. Togo, Ghana, Nigeria, etc. all believe in witchcraft, especially Benin, which directly positions witchcraft and voodoo as the state religion. This is the big religious brother in Africa.
The problem is that there are other religious forms in Africa, such as Eastern Catholicism and Islam. It may coexist with witchcraft in other countries, but in Benin?
Those ‘infidels’ had a miserable life, and they did not dare to disclose their beliefs--it is a trivial matter to let people smash glass, and they would be dragged out and buried at every turn. . . . . .
If you let Jehovah know, the honorary priest of the Eastern Catholic Church turned out to be a sorcerer, saying that he could directly kill these parties, Xiao Peng.
This Nima is too black and humorous.
Victor continued: "Patriarch Kiri knows what's happening here and has decided to get here as soon as possible. He has to witness this miracle with his own eyes, and let this miracle shine on everyone in the world. corner!"
"Kiri is coming over?" What Xiao Peng wanted to say was, as for? This is a bear cannibalism, this is not a good thing! Is such a hype appropriate?
Victor seemed to see Xiao Peng’s doubts and continued:
When the envoys are persecuted, even the wild creatures will stand up to protect them. This is the power of religion! This is the power of God.
When he said this, Victor's eyes were full of fanaticism.
Xiao Peng himself was almost convinced by Victor that this was a miracle. Yes, what do you guys say? Anyway, just let me live comfortably in your bear country.
Xiao Peng felt calm when he thought so. Well, this is just a simple exchange. I have given you the opportunity to promote the power of religion. You want to make it convenient for me within your religious power. Thinking about it this way, it was quite a bargain. Thinking of this, Xiao Peng wanted to laugh upright.
However, Victor’s next sentence Xiao Peng couldn’t laugh: "Dear Samuel and Samson, Patriarch Kiri also decided to come to Petropavlovsk himself because of the miracles you brought. This is a big deal for our remote town, so we thought, let the two preach to us, do you think it's okay?"
The so-called ‘sermon’ is a religious term that refers to the act of propagating doctrines in formal religious ceremonies. This is something that every clergyman can do.
Xiao Peng and Yang Meng are currently clergy. Isn’t it an honorary priest?
But let them both preach? Please, can you tell them to open the church door over there first?
Didn't this Nima present a problem for the two of them?
I saw Patriarch Kiri again, in the church in Petropavlovsk.
Before coming, Xiao Peng could not imagine that there was such a magnificent church in Petropavlovsk.
No wonder people say that the most magnificent building in Europe must be the church. Although with the development of society, there are more and more high-rise buildings, but the church is always a must-see beauty in European and American architecture. Almost all churches are the essence of architectural history.
Give a simple example. For example, the Sagrada Familia, which is a temple appointed by the Roman Catholic Emperor. The designer Gaudí took over the church from 1883. From design to construction until his death in 1926, Gaudí’s second half of his life was dedicated to this church, but in the past forty years, this church has only A quarter was completed. After his death, the church has been under intermittent construction. Until today, less than 3/4 of the project has been completed. It is said that the construction may be completed in 2026, but Xiao Peng is not convinced about this. Unless the project is greatly shortened, it is really impossible to complete Gaudí's design concept.
You should know that Gaudí's architectural design directly integrates many elements such as Eastern Islamic Moorish style, modernism, naturalism, etc., to create an almost grotesque architectural style, bringing a unique visual feast to the world. As for the Sagrada Familia, it can only be described in terms of architectural miracles. If it is not seen with their own eyes, it is hard for the world to believe that human power can build such a magnificent building.
Although the Petropavlovsk Church is not as exaggerated as the Sagrada Familia, it is definitely the most magnificent building in Petropavlovsk ------ the tallest building in the entire town is it !
When Patriarch Kiri saw the two of Xiao Peng, his smile never disappeared from the beginning to the end. The arrival of Patriarch Kiri was the most important event in the remote Kamchatka Peninsula. There are even believers from all over to Kamchatka by plane.
In addition to the sea, the only way to enter Kamchatka is by plane. The airport is not yet in Petrobalovsk, but in Alizov, dozens of kilometers away, about Alizov Airport. . . . . . Well, if it weren't for the plane to stop there, Xiao Peng would have thought it was a domestic long-distance bus station ------ or a township level.
This small airport suddenly received so many people, the airport was almost paralyzed.
The arrival of Patriarch Kiri brought a lot of honors, and the beach where Xiao Peng and others played had become a holy land, and it was the territory of ‘Holy Bear Wally’. That's right, the first protected brown bear in the bear country appeared. ‘Wally’ is its name, and I am grateful that it led the tribe to protect the two Eastern Catholic priests at a critical moment. The Kamchatka Peninsula was originally the most densely populated area of brown bears in the world, and I am afraid it will be even more dense in the future-these Nima brown bears have begun to be protected!
Xiao Peng and Yang Meng also became regulars, and they were directly priests. Xiao Peng was also very helpless about this. He swears to God that he has never read the Bible in his life, but he has become an Eastern Catholic priest, and he is still a wizard. Xiao Peng can only lament that life is full of drama.
The biggest opinion on this matter should be the tourism industry in Petrobalovsk. After all, bear hunting is a traditional tourism project of Petrobarovlovsk. This is good, the bear is protected. One missing point to make money. However, over time, people were surprised to find that the brown bears on Kamchatka suddenly became friendly to humans. If they don’t provoke them, they will not attack humans. So a new tourism project was born-bear appreciation.
Well, the status of ‘Wally’ is higher, bears live in peace with humans? This was unbelievable before, and many people came here to prove it, which greatly promoted the tourism industry in Petropavlovsk. Some scientists also wanted to study this phenomenon, but they were driven away by a group of soldiers from the bear country.
Ever since Pu the Great did not believe in evil and played cordially with "Wally" for an afternoon, Wally's territory has been protected by a group of soldiers. The most important thing is to protect the safety of "Wally". Of course, this is a story.
The coming of Patriarch Kiri not only honoured Xun Xun's "Wally", and brought the two of them to "regular", it also brought good news to Xiao Peng. That is to convey the religious status of Xiao Peng and Yang Meng to all Eastern Catholic believers.
This is terrible, we must know that the distribution of Eastern Catholic Church is still very wide. Europe, North America and even Africa have large areas of faith. Depending on your position in the Eastern Catholic Church, you can walk sideways to these places!
Yep. With the exception of Benin and other countries where witchcraft is the state religion, no country in the world will refuse the journey of religious figures to its own country. visa? Leave you!
Of course, Xiao Peng has to pay for this. Although Patriarch Kiri had arrived, Xiao Peng didn't need to preach. but. . . . . . Xiao Peng now prefers to preach instead of talking nonsense. I don't want to suffer the current sin.
Now Xiao Peng and Yang Meng, both wearing traditional Eastern Catholic robes, stand in the middle of the church with smirk, like two mascots.
"Who Nima will say that there are fewer people in Kamchatka, I will kill someone." Yang Meng said with a stiff smile on his face, standing up straight to Xiao Peng.
Xiao Peng also had a stiff smile on his face, but he said to Yang Meng: "Brother, stick to it. Alas, cheap is not so easy to account for. I originally thought that I would go to church wherever I go in the future. Look, now I have completely dispelled this idea. This is so life-threatening."
"Xiao Peng, do you think I can beat Old Man Kiri now?" Yang Meng said this in a very serious tone.
Xiao Peng smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it, I've been insisting on it for so long, let's stick to it again..."
After speaking, the two looked at the long line in front of them. Together they sighed: "Hey..."
Patriarch Kiri promised to preach for the two of them, but they also asked Xiao Peng and the two to agree to his "little" condition. In fact, it was not a big deal, it was just to meet the believers.
This thing is simple, much better than preaching, standing there wearing a robe, and saying ‘God bless you’ to the believers who came?
Xiao Peng happily agreed. As a result, he overlooked a problem: the number of believers.
How many people are there in Nima!
