Chapter 180 [God] is someone who has been here before
【What is God?】
The second class in the morning was in a large classroom...but there were not many students. This was originally a relatively unpopular subject. At this time, such a problem arose.
This is Teacher Pulin's class. There may not be many students attending the class today, but obviously it cannot be compared with when there were few people in some popular subjects... The students sat in twos and threes in different places.
Their attention to the questions projected on the screen by Teacher Pulin was obviously not as high as that of the two new students. In other words, since the beginning of class, these two new students have attracted almost everyone in the classroom.
attention.
One is a young man with oriental ancestry and a very typical Asian face at first glance. The other is a beauty with a little bit of Russian ancestry, but is as delicate as a doll.
The two new students obviously knew each other. They came in together and sat on adjacent seats together.
The university campus is relatively more free, unlike high school, so there is no situation where the tutor will introduce the transfer students before class... so the students will be more curious about the situation of these two freshmen.
After all, it has been a while since the start of school, and it is really rare for someone to choose to join a class at this time... Putting aside the issue of whether you can keep up with the courses, just choosing an unpopular subject like theological studies is enough to make you feel better.
People are curious.
God, what on earth is that.
Even so, the class has already begun, and the questions Teacher Pulin asked everyone also need to be thought about.
Teacher Pulin looks very gentle...as gentle as a white mouse in a laboratory, but his attitude towards academics is very rigorous. There were students who didn't care much about the courses because Teacher Pulin looked gentle. In the end,
He was mercilessly judged to be unqualified in the subject by this teacher Pulin... without even a chance for accommodation.
"God, what is it?"
Teacher Pulin picked up the microphone at this time and looked at the classroom in front of him. He didn't pay special attention to any student...even the new student he met twice yesterday: Luo Qiu.
"Perhaps you are curious why I am asking you this question again half way through this semester."
Teacher Pulin leaned on the podium casually at this time, "It's because I suddenly want to take a test today... Do you know what I want to test?"
"After this period of study, what do we know about theology?" Some active students raised their hands and answered directly.
"Teacher, you have gained a new understanding of the definition of God recently. Maybe you plan to tell us... Oh, hell, this rubbish subject should have been canceled a long time ago! I'll take you to transfer departments to study economics!" A rather naughty person
The answer came from a male student dressed in hip-hop style.
A burst of laughter was like an undercurrent, flowing slowly in the dull classroom... The atmosphere seemed to be better, and Teacher Pulin also showed a smile at this time, "First of all, if you change departments, maybe you
They need to pay the tuition again, and then they have to complete the credits they need to take this semester in half the time than others."
There was another burst of low laughter.
At this time, Teacher Pulin tapped the microphone lightly, making the classroom quiet, "So, new students, can you answer me, what exactly is God?"
Finally, Teacher Pulin cast his eyes on the two freshmen, "Should the young gentlemen come, or the ladies first?"
Oh...it seems that the so-called test is actually intended to test these two freshmen. The students curiously fixed their eyes on these two freshmen.
This makes it difficult for Boss Luo to connect with the time when he was in college. About a year ago, in his campus life, there were only two students in his class... and many times, he was the only one in class.
.
Of course, at this time, Boss Luo basically no longer suffered from the so-called embarrassment, and he didn't care at all when facing everyone's gaze. After thinking about it, he said in English that was fluent enough to put British students to shame: "From now on
From ancient times to the present, from kings to the people, whether in academia, politics, education, even medicine, commerce, etc., as long as there are people in a corner, the behavior of 'belief in God' will appear. This
There are so many behaviors of "belief in God" that we can't even clearly know how many "gods" exist in the world. But from the perspective of modern scientific concepts, we know that there is no "god" in the world.
Yes, then what exactly is [God]?”
Instead, Boss Luo ended his first paragraph with the question at the beginning... He seemed to have answered nothing. If there is no follow-up point of view in this way of answering, it is probably quite naughty, at least the lecturer will not like it.
But nothing could be seen on Teacher Pulin's face. He just suddenly raised the microphone and said: "[God] is a prophet, and [God] is also a scholar."
Luo Qiu smiled and said: "Is it because [God] has always provided guidance in different disciplines at different times... Human beings in the past always called areas that they could not pry into, or perhaps did not yet understand, touch.
It’s called [God’s Forbidden Zone]. People would think that it is an area that mortals cannot cross, and those who step into [God’s Forbidden Zone] will be punished by [God].”
"That's just the fear of nature in the ignorant stage." This is what a student in the classroom suddenly said... Immediate questioning, not just listening because this is a classroom and the lecturer has not asked questions yet.
Boss Luo looked at this student... She had some small freckles on her face, half-rimmed glasses, and pigtails. She looked like a very energetic white girl.
"What do you think [God] is?" Boss Luo looked at the female classmate and asked.
She said without thinking: "[God] is just a concept. It is the spiritual incarnation of those people around us who are respected and admired by the public. This spiritual incarnation gives us a spiritual sustenance, and we naturally
This kind of spiritual sustenance is called faith. Therefore, [God] is actually just a kind of faith."
This is a very official and safe statement... Those who study theology basically use this concept as the basis. From the perspective of modern disciplines, it is obviously without error.
"If [God] is a kind of faith, what do you think is the specific manifestation of faith?" Boss Luo asked abruptly.
Teacher Pulin blinked and seemed to be interested in such a question. He looked at the female student like an observer.
The female classmate thought for a while and said: "Faith is a subjective product of the soul."
Boss Luo shook his head, "Consciousness is something we can't see or touch. It's elusive."
The female classmate couldn't help but frowned, "Idols, myths and legends, biblical figures, totems!"
Boss Luo curiously asked: "If [God] is a kind of belief, the specific belief is idols, legends, totems, etc... Is the specific belief also [God]?"
"Of course what human beings believe in is [God], how can you believe in..." The female classmate opened her mouth and believed that besides belief in [God], there is actually another direction of belief.
For example, in real life, there is also the opposite of "God" who believes in "Devil".
"Then what do you think [God]... is?" The female classmate was silent for a moment and then asked rather reluctantly.
Boss Luo did not answer this question directly, but thought for a while and said: "I don't mean to deny faith... In fact, everyone needs to have spiritual sustenance and faith. There is no doubt about this. Because, without faith
People who have no moral bottom line and spiritual pursuits. Especially in contemporary society, most young people will feel bored, boring, depressed, and live like a walking zombie... Even what they are living for has to be determined.
There is no answer. So among this kind of group, it may be easier to produce [gods]. No matter what they worship or yearn for in the end, it can be regarded as a kind of [god] and a kind of [spirit]."
"This is not [God] in [Theology]." The female classmate pondered for a moment, and finally shook her head. Obviously she did not intend to agree with this view, but she did not completely deny it.
Theology and philosophy have always been unable to be completely separated, and the doctrines of different schools are also entangled with each other and support each other.
"So [God], in my opinion, is actually a person who has been here." Luo Qiu suddenly said at this time, looking at Teacher Pulin, and gave the current positive answer, "[God] is a person who has been here, but he is also a person who has been there before."
[Prophet] and [Scholar].”
God is a past person, a former prophet and scholar.
They remembered that Teacher Pulin suddenly said at the beginning, "God" is a prophet and a scholar... The freshman finally answered the question after being interrupted by a female classmate.
Of course... I'm not too surprised. After all, most of the students present have the attributes of academic masters and will not easily admire a new student who arrives suddenly unless the new student has the ability to make a lot of money based on his own ability during school.
Smashing their wealth to death is an object worthy of admiration.
"If this is the case, then when people in the future arrive in the past, won't they become [gods]?"
The male classmate in the hip-hop suit smiled and said: "As people in the future, we really know too much knowledge and have mastered too many trends. For people in the past, they are prophets and also great scholars. In the past
The people of the future are the greatest geniuses and can lead an era!"
"First of all, make sure that you can truly master a large amount of knowledge in a useful subject, rather than being a handicap who can only use modern tools proficiently but can't make anything." The female classmate with pigtails said abruptly: "I don't.
I’ve seen [gods] who flaunt their individuality.”
Hahahaha...the laughter this time was obviously not deep.
The hip-hop male classmate didn't care at all, shrugged, and then gestured to the female classmate with a finger.
At this time, Teacher Pulin simply clapped his hands a few times to make the class quiet again. He looked at the students and smiled and said: "Can modern people become [gods] when they go back to the past? In fact,
I don’t know, after all, even [bak-to-the-future-part] 123 didn’t tell me this. But one thing Claudia said is not wrong. Even if you have the opportunity to go back to the past,
If you want to be a pioneer of an era, you really need a lot of knowledge and exquisite skills..."
It turns out that the name of this female classmate with pigtails is Claudia.
Teacher Pulin continued to speak.
"...So for the time and space journey that may occur in the future, what reason do you have for not cherishing the opportunity to study? Markle, can you stop chatting through text messages? I believe your girlfriend must not like her boyfriend.
A guy who can only make himself happy when he is bored in class."
The male classmate who was named suddenly opened his mouth in confusion. He felt that he had concealed it very well, so how did this teacher Pulin know?
Can you even know that the person you are chatting with is your girlfriend?
Damn it...
There was another burst of low laughter.
After that, the classmate named Markle hurriedly put away his mobile phone, then opened the textbook, saying that he would listen to the class seriously.
Teacher Pulin laughed it off, and then opened the handout in his hand, "Okay, without further ado, let's continue where we left off in the previous lesson... The two new students can come to the office to find me after class.
, I will provide you with a copy of the previous teaching materials. Now, please open page 36 of the book. Today we will talk about the concept of [Trinity]..."
Boss Luo also opened the textbook... He was quite interested in Teacher Pulin's understanding of the concept of "Trinity".
The maid lady also opened the textbook at this time [ . ] She stood the textbook up.
This familiar routine instantly made Boss Luo feel like he was back in high school. Without any surprises, in addition to the textbook, the maid lady also opened another thing: the recipe!
Luo Qiu was stunned, not knowing whether it was a wise choice for him to ask her to come to school with him... At this moment, a female student sitting at the desk in front suddenly turned her head and quickly
He placed a small piece of paper folded in half in front of Boss Luo.
Luo Qiu was startled when he saw the female classmate in the front seat pointing forward to where Claudia was. This note seemed to have been passed on by Claudia.
The maid lady obviously noticed these little actions and moved her eyes.
Boss Luo smiled and opened the note directly, only to see Claudia writing on the note:
If [God] is a person in the past, can a person in the future become [God]?
Also I would like to know your contact information and name Claudia!
Luo Qiu thought for a while, then took out a pen and wrote below the question:
[Gods] are people from the past, and people are [gods] in the future.
After finishing writing, Boss Luo asked the female classmate in front of him to pass the note back, but he did not leave his contact information or name as a joke. You Ye was watching next to him.
Although the maid is very generous, considerate and sensible...but Boss Luo still has some desire for survival.
