Father Mavie

Chapter 17 Believers
At the foot of the stone steps stood a group of people in different clothes, both men and women, coal miners with ill-fitting clothes, and merchants in silk vests with black suit jackets, covering everything between second-hand markets and high-end tailor shops.

The wide Kerr Street seemed to be a bit congested, and the driver who was waving his horsewhip had to steer his car carefully to pass behind the crowd, so as not to be bumped by others.

Ma Wei even saw Gray Wolf Dino in the corner. He was still wearing that wolf fur jacket, with a playful and playful expression, and an unfathomable look.

"Good morning, every body."

Looking across the crowd, Ma Wei smiled and said, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Father."

The owner of the winery, Fons Browning, who was the first to visit last night, stepped up the stone steps. While covering his bruised head, he hurried forward with his bloodshot eyes wide open, and said in a low voice, "Your doctor last night The speech is really inspiring, the angel has really come! After being saved, many people spontaneously want to become believers of the church! Believe in the goddess of truth!"

"Is this the case for everyone?"

"Yes!" Fons Browning said excitedly: "The goddess really appeared! How can we not believe it?"

"If this is the case, the goddess may not accept them as her followers."

"Why?"

Fons Browning was dumbfounded. It must be a great thing for so many people to become believers, but the priest refused!

"Because what they believe in is not truth, but power!"

Ma Wei suddenly turned to the crowd below and said in the loudest voice: "The reason why the Goddess gave you a gift is because she heard your pious prayers and heard your painful wailing! She doesn't want to see you die in pain, so she just Sending an envoy, this is kindness!"

"However, you actually came to become believers because of the power of the goddess, and what you want is to use the gift of the goddess to realize your selfishness. This is not the truth!"

"From the very beginning, your starting point was wrong!"

Many people lowered their heads in embarrassment, not daring to look directly into Ma Wei's eyes.

"Father, what is truth?" someone asked loudly.

The voice sounded very familiar. Ma Wei looked around and saw the gray wolf Dino standing in the corner of the crowd raised his eyebrows at him, with a meaningful smile on his lips.

"I'd be happy to explain to you what truth is."

Ma Wei took the opportunity and continued: "Please enter the church and sit down. This is a public mass. Anyone who wants to find out the truth can come in and listen!"

The huge church was full of people, even standing in the corner by the wall, and there were still people coming.

Faced with countless gazes, Ma Wei walked up to the statue, dragged out a blackboard, thought for a while, and said loudly:
"Truth can be roughly divided into three types, which are spiritual truth, geometric truth and logical truth."

"Today we are going to talk about the truth of the soul. The title of the first class is the relationship between the individual and society."

Picking up the chalk, Ma Wei scribbled a few large characters on the blackboard.

【Everyone for me, I for everyone】

"Everyone, please express your understanding of this sentence."

"It's so easy!"

Fons Browning was the first to stand up: "Everyone for me means that everyone works for me, and I for everyone means that I have to pay wages for workers! This is a reasonable labor relation!"

Some people in the audience nodded, while others dismissed it.

Ma Wei shook his head: "It's too one-sided and extreme, but there are merits. Exchanging labor for remuneration is indeed an indispensable connection that has existed in society throughout the ages. Is there anyone else who wants to answer?"

"I'll tell you!"

A coal miner in a black jacket and a felt hat stood up. He took off his hat and looked around: "This sentence actually refers to the family. Society is built by countless small families, so everyone For me, refers to all members of a family, such as my wife, children, their contribution is convenient for me, and I go out to work and support them, this is me for everyone!"

This time, there were significantly more people nodding in agreement.

"Well said, but misses the real point."

Ma Wei turned around and wrote the word 'exchange' on the blackboard: "From the answers of the two gentlemen just now, we can know that they all seem to think that the real meaning of this sentence is exchange, but it is not."

"Exchange exists in every corner of life. It is not simply bartering things or exchanging power for power. Its essence lies in the deeper meaning hidden under the act of exchanging!"

"Father, do you mean consecration?"

Someone raised a question: "I gave something, and finally got something in return. Can this also be understood as mutual dedication?"

"No, it's equality, equality in personality."

Ma Wei said blankly: "The composition of society is very complicated, and it is difficult to explain it clearly in a few words, but I think everyone has their own unique insights on the composition of society, so there is no need to say more."

"All for one, one for all, this sentence discusses the relationship between the individual and society, and the ultimate answer is equality."

"Everyone's social status may be high or low, but there is no difference in the labor they put in."

"Mr. Fons said just now that the workers work for him and he pays the workers. It seems to be a labor exchange, but during this process, did the two parties have a psychological gap?"

"Many people think that workers are born to be inferior to their bosses, and that their bosses are their bread and butter, and their heaven. I can tell you responsibly that this view is seriously wrong!"

"If there are no workers, how can the factories of the production organizers function normally? Conversely, if there are no production organizers, where should the workers go to earn money to support their families?"

Ma Wei slammed on the blackboard and said in a serious tone: "The relationship between supply and demand is corresponding. Whether it is a worker or a production organizer, you should not have the illusion of being superior or inferior to others!"

"Everyone is for one, I am for everyone. This sentence is actually reminding us to achieve true equality of personality!"

"And equal personalities require mutual respect and mutual understanding. No one needs to contribute more. Just like now, people of different social status gather together. No matter how rich or how poor, everyone just wants to To be able to squeeze into a narrow bench is a sign of equality!"

"This is the truth!"

clap clap clap!
There was deafening applause in the church, and everyone understood the core meaning of Ma Wei's remarks, and they all agreed with them.

"OK OK."

Ma Wei pressed his hands and signaled everyone to be quiet: "The truth is by our side. Whether it is me or the goddess Junia, I hope that the believers will fight for the common goal. If anyone is willing to follow the light of truth, then the goddess will definitely welcome you." he."

"My words are finished, now, who wants to join the church?"
