Chapter 905: Chamber of Tears
Chapter 906 “Acid-Alkaline Physique”
In 1766, a debate started in Bavaria, which lasted for about five years, with people from Germany, Austria, Bohemia, Switzerland and northern Italy.
After years of preparation, Protestants linked the Black Death to witchcraft, and the controversial exorcist John Joseph Gasnell also linked all diseases to witchcraft.
Of course, what he did was full of mistakes, because most diseases are caused by bacteria and viruses.
Not every fever means demonic possession. It may just be a cold or an inflamed wound. The patient needs penicillin more than an exorcist. His approach not only makes himself a laughing stock, but also makes him a laughing stock.
All people who rarely knew the existence of witchcraft became the "crazy class", causing many Europeans to regard the end of witchcraft trials as a great victory of light over darkness.
Catholics and Protestants debate whether the devil exists.
The existence of ghosts has not been scientifically proven, so ghosts do not exist.
There is a story about Job in the Old Testament. Job was originally a happy man, giving birth to seven sons and three daughters. His family was rich, with many cattle and livestock, and a large family of servants. However, he did not respect
He does not rely on wealth for material things. He is a charitable person and is willing to generously help the poor. He often gives clothes to those in need. Everyone respects him.
At that time, the Israelites began to worship foreign idols, such as the sun, moon, and stars, but Job remained loyal to Jehovah, so the devil made a bet with Jehovah. Satan said to Jehovah: "Job fears you because you bless you.
Give it to him, there is no one more happy than him on earth, if you destroy everything about him, he will definitely betray you."
The Lord said, "Well, I will give everything he has to you to do with you, but you can't hurt him."
Then disaster suddenly befell Job. He lost his property and children one after another, and suffered from serious skin diseases.
His three friends heard the news about Job and came to visit him. The rich man Job was in a miserable state. He was covered with malignant sores from head to toe and needed to be cut open with tiles.
His wife was also persuading him to give up his faith and die, but Job said to her: "Can we only enjoy the blessings God bestows, but cannot bear the sins He imposes?"
After seven days and seven nights like this, Job still didn't feel better despite the company of his friends, so he began to murmur: "Why did I die without a mother's womb? I have no peace and no rest. My troubles will never end. Now I die."
It’s the most beautiful thing.”
Job's three friends are like doctors. They came to Job to diagnose and analyze Job. In order to save Job from his plight, the three friends came to the conclusion through consultation and analysis that Job must be.
What kind of sin did he commit that seriously offended God? That’s why Job encountered such disaster. The solution is to ask Job to examine his sins one by one, confess his sins one by one, and repent one by one. In this way, Job’s misery may be gone.
They believe that God is just and good will be rewarded with good and evil will be punished with evil.
It is strange that a man who has lost all his property, children, and health, and whose body is covered with sores, can listen to such words.
He firmly believes that he is innocent, why should he be punished like this?
Later, God answered Job's question in the whirlwind: Who uses ignorant language to explain my will? Then I ask you, where were you when I created this world? The seas and rivers, the sun, the moon, the stars, the thunder, lightning, rain, dew, and light.
Where does darkness come from? You are arguing and arguing with the Almighty. Now make your choice.
So Job humbly prostrated himself before God and admitted his ignorance.
Then the Lord asked Job's friends to find seven bullocks and rams to sacrifice, so that Job could sacrifice them and no longer punished Job.
After they did so, Job returned to a wealthy life. Not only did his property increase several times more than before, but his wife also gave birth to seven boys and three girls, and finally lived to die at the age of 140.
The bet was won by Jehovah, and the devil who lost had to pay the price. Joseph believed that it was this bet that made it necessary to answer the exorcist's question.
The devil basically loses as long as he gives his name. This is his fatal weakness. However, he cannot remain silent because this is the punishment for his failure to challenge God.
But not everyone is like Job. When facing trials, many people choose to rebel. "God" steps down from the position of authority, and "science" steps up.
If there were monks and alchemists who were doing hypocritical and self-interested things in the name of God, now there is pseudoscience in their place.
There are many alternative treatments in the United States. In chemistry textbooks, when the pH value is below 7, it is acidic, and when it is above 7, it is alkaline. Therefore, no one needs to go to special conditioning, because everyone’s body is inherently weakly alkaline.
.
Normally, people consume a large amount of protein, fat or sugar, which will cause hyperlipidemia, high blood pressure, hyperglycemia, high weight, high uric acid, and hyperinsulinemia. These three types of substances are acidic, and the body is in a state of health and disease.
If they are in a sub-healthy state, these people have acidic constitutions.
Acidic bodies are prone to cancer; if you want to be healthy, you should eat more alkaline foods to adjust your body's PH value.
Since 2002, the "Acid-Alkali Miracle" series of books published by the scientist who calls himself "Doctor" has become a bestseller many times and has been translated into many languages. In conjunction with the "Acid-Alkali Physique" theory, he also established a health care center
, make a lot of money.
But such a famous "miraculous doctor" has no medical qualifications at all, and even his doctorate was bought with money.
He has never received professional or systematic study and training, and has no professional knowledge at all. After receiving his doctorate in 1995, he was prosecuted for illegal medical practice.
His theory has even appeared on a talk show. Many medical experts believe that eating more fresh vegetables and maintaining a low-stress life is undoubtedly healthy.
In the history of Christianity, there was an Albigensian sect. This sect was more extreme than the Waldensians. They completely denied the material world and believed that clergy were "perfect people". As perfect people, they could not eat any "egg, milk, meat, etc."
"Sinful things" and cannot own personal property, which is in sharp contrast to the Holy See who loves gourmet food.
The Albigensians denied the Trinity, the Sacraments and Purgatory, denounced the Pope as a devil, and claimed to overthrow the Roman Church. Innocent III first used peaceful persuasion methods, and finally organized a crusade to suppress the Albigensians in 1209. Northern France
In order to plunder the wealth of the south, the knights also actively responded to the Pope's call. Under the leadership of Baron Montfort, the Crusaders invaded Toulouse and burned, killed and looted wantonly. This crusade lasted for four years. The Albigensians were suppressed and the economy of southern France suffered.
cause great damage.
In order to deal with them, Dominicans and Franciscans were supported. Dominicans were responsible for "eliminating ignorance". "Franciscans" were beggars and ascetics to wash away the negative image of the church. Later, the Franciscans appeared.
After discussing the differences, he believed that studying theology was more important than begging.
By this time, the Inquisition had been established.
In his famous "Ninety-Five Theses", Martin Luther believed that the difference between hell, purgatory and heaven is despair, going to despair and believing that this punishment is for the living.
A famous scientist said that the end of science is theology. If what he said is wrong, why can't what the scientist says be questioned?
Psychology can solve many problems, but not all problems can be solved. In this case, ancient religious rituals are needed.
Some evil spirits just need to give them the sacrifices they want. Not every baby needs to be alive, and some can be solved by sacrificing a few animals.
People and animals are not equal. The souls of animals are inferior. Americans keep pets and regard dogs and cats as members of the family. They even ask firefighters to take risks to rescue their pets from fires. There are often "people who rescue small animals" in movies.
Hero” firefighter.
Isn’t the life of firefighters life? Just because it is the duty of firefighters to fight fires and disasters, we cannot put excessive demands on them...
There was a loud "pop" sound.
Joseph trembled all over.
An iron door in front of him was opened, and the sound was almost like a gunshot.
"We are here." Father Brunner said, holding up a flashlight. "This is the Church of Tears."
Joseph walked slowly in. It was an octagonal room with a low roof and an altar in the middle. It looked very old, and there were stone carvings on it that were somewhat blurred because of the age.
"Some people say that is Solomon's temple altar. Do you think it looks like it?" Father Bruner asked.
"It looks like a pagan altar to me," said Joseph.
"I think so too. Which faith do you think it belongs to?"
"As long as it's not the one dedicated to Duke Miller." Joseph crossed himself on his chest and walked into the "Call of Tears."
Father Brunner did not go in.
"When you are ready, call me." Father Bruner said before closing the door. "Remember to take only one thing."
Then he closed the door.
As usual, there was a loud "pop" sound, and in the darkness, Joseph heard the sound of gears turning in the wall, as if some mechanism had been triggered.
Then the ceiling above him gradually lit up. It might be the fluorescence produced by the reaction of some chemical substance, or the light produced by the discharge of some mineral material after being squeezed. In short, there was light.
At first he thought he saw stars, but then he discovered that they were countless eyes. Surrounded by many eyes, there was a monster with four human hands and four wings. It had an eagle face on the front, a lion face on the left, and an ox face on the right.
, they seemed to be wrapped in flames, with a throne on their heads, and the upper body of the person on the seat looked like a glowing tree, surrounded by a rainbow.
In the book of Ezekiel, there is an image similar to it, except that it claimed to be Jehovah and destroyed Jerusalem.
According to the Book of Revelation, the return of Christ will lead to the final destruction of the temple, a great earthquake will split the earth in Jerusalem, and the mountains and islands will be displaced.
But the two former temples were built on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem centuries ago and were destroyed by the Babylonians and Romans respectively. If you want to reconcile the prophecies, you cannot build a third temple in Jerusalem.
"Incredible." Joseph murmured, his eyes seemed to be filled with tears, reflecting the light from the zenith's eyes.
Mileg was the god who destroyed Jerusalem
