Sun Mo nodded and signaled Qin Yaoguang to ask questions.
What should I say about this girl? She is very talented and spiritual, but her personality is too out of the ordinary. If she works as hard as Ying Baiwu, her final results will definitely be higher than those of the iron-headed girl.
This is not to say that Ying Baiwu's talent is not as good as that of Snack Girl, but the environment in which she grew up has shaped her character and her perspective on things, which has some problems.
"Teacher, although most wars are for land, slaves, and the wealth accumulated by others. After all, robbery can make you rich faster than farming your own land, but there are still some people in this world who are fighting for their beliefs.
"
Qin Yaoguang looked solemn.
Discussing this kind of issue should not be done in a joking manner.
"Your question is so sharp!"
Tantai Yutang glanced at the snack girl.
Due to physical reasons, he was unable to practice for a long time, so he kept reading. Therefore, among his classmates, his reading volume was second only to Li Ziqi.
There was no way to surpass it because there were some books in the collection that, given his status, he couldn't see at all.
In the history of Kyushu, there were a few wars that occurred because of different religious beliefs.
"Beliefs are also divided into types. Some people fight for the Inte Neishonar, while others fight for the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism. Even within Buddhism, there are Mahayana and Hinayana Buddhism."
Sun Moxin said, luckily I read a lot, otherwise I would have been questioned.
"What you are asking here should specifically refer to religious wars."
Qin Yaoguang nodded, and then he was confused, what the hell is Yingte Nexonnar? So he looked at Li Ziqi.
Xiao Hebao shook his head, he didn’t understand!
Well, Lu Zhiruo gave up thinking after seeing that even the most knowledgeable senior sister didn't know.
"First of all, let's clarify a question: What is the meaning of religion? In other words, why do people believe in religion?"
Sun Mo asked back.
The gourd boys were silent. The most common ones in Kyushu were Taoism and Buddhism, and even white lotus. This was banned by every imperial court and would be strangled if they saw it. However, the students did not consider the significance of their existence.
"Soul sustenance?"
This is Qin Yaoguang's understanding.
"To live a better life, right?"
Lu Zhiruo's answer is simple and unpretentious. In fact, this is the reason why ordinary people believe in religion.
Just like those modern uncles and aunts, if you don’t give me some eggs, rice, etc., why should I listen to your teaching courses?
"To better rule the people?"
What Li Ziqi said was a bit treasonous.
Sun Mo couldn't help but glance at her. She was indeed the princess of Lan Zhihuixin. The level she was at was different from what ordinary people saw.
Of course, if those here were not junior brothers and sisters, Xiaobao Baobao would not say this.
"The initial origins of each religion are different, but the methods of recruiting followers are similar, which is to give people spiritual sustenance and tell them that if they believe in me, they will be better off."
Sun Mo also explained in a serious manner.
"Wanting to live a better life is the most basic desire of the general public."
"The initial teachings of religion may be good, but if they want to develop, they will inevitably conflict with the imperial power, leading to compromise, and finally reaching a kind of symbiosis."
"Don't ask me why there is a conflict, think for yourself!"
Sun Mo did not dare to say that this was Kyushu where feudal society reached its peak. Literary prisons were commonplace. He talked too much and even his status as a famous teacher could not save him.
Except for Li Ziqi and Qin Yaoguang, who were thoughtful, no one else understood.
"So your three answers are all correct."
Sun Mo smiled.
"Actually, religion is a spiritual haven for many people. I am already so miserable in reality, why don't I be allowed to be spiritually rich?"
"Have you noticed? The more severe disasters and dynasties where life is difficult, the more religious people are. On the contrary, people live very well and have no time to enjoy themselves every day. Who has the leisure to chant sutras? At worst, when I visit the temple
, wouldn’t it still appear sincere to pay more for incense?”
"Historically, wars between religions were mostly caused by careerists seeking more rights for themselves under the guise of religion."
"You can even use a high-sounding reason to justify your killing, looting and other sinful behaviors."
Dare you say that the Crusades were not for money?
"The dispute over faith is also a dispute over ideology. But in the final analysis, is it better to fight over who is better? But who is going to decide this? Is it a certain big shot reincarnated by Buddha? Is it a certain saint? Or the Pope?"
Sun Mo asked.
The gourd boys were silent, this question is a bit difficult.
"It's the people!"
This is Sun Mo's thinking: "I think the premise of all faith is the pursuit of making people live a better life."
"Materially, everyone will have enough food, clothing, and big houses to live in, which will solve the problem of hunger and housing. Again, people work because of interest, not because if I don't work, my whole family will starve to death.
"
"Spiritually, to be fulfilled and rich is not to muddle along every day, but to know what you like, what you pursue, and spend your time on it."
Everyone was silent.
Xian Yuwei opened her mouth, but couldn't hold back and asked.
"It's impossible for everyone to be fed and clothed, right?"
The grassland tribes are recognized as barbarians, poor and backward, while the Tang Dynasty is a kingdom of heaven. However, when Xian Yuwei came to Jinling, she found that there were many beggars and homeless children running all over the streets.
"That's why we need knowledge!"
"Being religious can make food grow in the ground? Can it make fish and shrimp in the pond grow? Can it make a child become a man who is upright and upright?"
Sun Mo asked back.
Everyone shook their heads, this must not work!
Turning stone into gold is all Tianqiao's trick.
“But knowledge does!”
Sun Mo thought of Mr. Yuan. He was truly an unparalleled scholar. Without his research results, how many people would have starved to death.
"Helian, when society develops to this point, war will disappear, because the meaning of waging war will be gone."
Of course, Sun Mo would not tell Helian that the situation of the war was not just a fight between two armies, but they would also keep changing.
It is impossible to completely eradicate it, but this does not prevent everyone from working towards this goal.
"So, whatever you want to do, just do your best, but I hope you will also guide those people and set a good example."
Even if there was no Helian North, there would be no war between the grasslands and the Central Plains?
impossible!
Rather than letting a man who is murderous become the king of the grassland, it is better to let his direct disciple do it. At least you can teach him what a just war is!
I hope this kind of massacre will never happen again.
"Teacher, I understand!"
Helian Beifang nodded seriously.
"Why do I feel like I'm listening to a book from heaven?"
Xian Yuwei was confused, but she understood one thing, that is, knowledge is very powerful and is the greatest power.
"Feel the same!"
Jiang Leng was not interested in these things. It was too troublesome. He just wanted to live freely.
Qin Yaoguang and the others were thinking seriously.
Sun Mo looked at Papaya Girl in surprise: "Do you understand?"
"I don't understand it very well, but I think the concept of making the world unified without war is a great idea, and I want to make it happen."
Lu Zhiruo looked at Sun Mo with a serious expression: "Teacher, can you teach me how to do it?"
I, Lu Zhiruo, used to only want to excel and be recognized by my father. This pursuit was really too small. Now, I have new ideals.
Yes, even if you pay for it with your life, you won’t hesitate.
I want to see a day when there is no war, no pain, no hunger and no suffering in this world!
Buzz!
Lu Zhiruo's body lit up with golden light, making her oval face look holy.
"This is……"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Li Ziqi was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Congratulations, junior sister, I have learned that I can learn without a teacher!"
"ah?"
Papaya Girl was startled, then looked happy: "I...I can also be a famous teacher?"
"Yes!"
Sun Mo didn't expect that the stupid papaya girl would become enlightened at this time!
"Is it okay if I'm so stupid?"
Lu Zhiruo was still unsure.
"You are not stupid, you are as wise as a fool!"
Sun Mo still cares very much about his mascot.
"Although I know the teacher is comforting me, I still happily accepted the compliment!"
Lu Zhiruo smiled: "I'll pay for extra food tonight!"
"If you follow the teacher, you can continue to grow!"
Xian Yuwei was filled with emotions.
At this moment, she suddenly felt very grateful to her former teacher. If he hadn't terminated the teacher-student relationship, she would never have met Sun Mo.
Everyone else sent their blessings, but Tantai Yutang had a bitter look on his face.
Am I actually not as good as Helian Beifang and Lu Zhiruo?
Isn't this too funny?
"Okay, today's lesson is a bit over the top. You are still young and shouldn't listen to this. By the way, this is my family's policy. Don't go out and talk nonsense."
Sun Mo warned.
He doesn't want to be sprayed to death by those old-fashioned big guys.
After all, some of my words are treasonous.
"Also, I have a final message for you. Learn more, read more, and think more. With knowledge and enriched thoughts, you may not be bound by the land in front of you."
Sun Mo looked around at his gourd kids, full of hope: "Don't you want to see what kind of beautiful scenery is outside the Nine Provinces?"
"Outside Kyushu?"
Lu Zhiruo blinked: "Are you talking about the Dark Continent?"
"Stupid, what the teacher means is, the world after the broken void!"
Tantai Yutang hit Papaya Girl on the head hard. I will never admit that I am jealous.
"Outside Kyushu?"
Qin Yaoguang murmured this word, and suddenly, his body shone with golden light.
"..."
Tantai Yutang wants to scold her, why is she a self-taught person?
Do you want to fuck me like this?
I consider myself a genius, but today, I am about to be struck to the point of being autistic.
Sun Mo was also shocked. Did he make another mistake?
Is this blooming on the bar?
"In one lecture, two people had an epiphany. Teacher, if word of this spreads, you will be the number one famous teacher in Jinling."
Li Ziqi smiled brightly and gave a thumbs up: "That's right."
