542 Revised Doctrine 2
Li You then went on to say: "Holy woman, you may be thinking that you have ancient books and classics, and everything is recorded. It is impossible for the archbishop to modify the classics. At most, there are changes in interpretation, but I want to say However, it is too simple to modify the scriptures. It is easier than reinterpreting the doctrine. It is just that the archbishop who modified the scriptures left too many flaws and loopholes, so that later archbishops have been repairing these flaws and vulnerabilities for him. It's just a loophole. This is the root cause of the inability of Manichaeism to spread widely.
In fact, I think that the original doctrine should be that people all want light and freedom, but don’t want to see darkness. Therefore, humans are by no means created by dark demons, they should be created by the god of light, and only the god of light is. The true God, the God of Light, has been guiding us so as not to be disturbed by the Dark Demon. People who believe in the God of Light are the result of its guidance, and they are all brothers and sisters. This way, people can love each other, live a good life, and make people truly Lives in the kingdom of light.
So bitheism is wrong. There should be only one god. There is no problem with light and darkness in your creation theory, but it is a problem to say that both the gods of light and the dark demons are righteous gods. You should also be able to think of this. Since the gods of light and the dark demons are righteous gods, why do you only believe in the gods of light and not the dark demons? We also have to welcome the coming of the God of Light in anticipation of him defeating the Dark Demons. Don’t you really see that such a contradictory doctrine of creation was clearly tailored to overthrow a certain authority? And who is the one with the highest right to speak in your ecclesiastical group? Who can do such a thing? I don't need to say any more, the saint should be able to think of it. That’s why I said that your true doctrine should never be like this. Do you understand it now
Doctrine revision is a premise. As long as we agree on this premise, everything that follows will follow this doctrine, and everything is easy to talk about. You can use this to promote Manichaeism, and I can also use this to unite people of all races. This is actually a thing that is beneficial to both of us. You don’t have to answer me in a hurry. I believe that the saints also want Manichaeism. The rise of it. And I just said that in the future, there will only be no archbishops or high priests from the Illuminati, and the new congregation will be presided over by the saints. "
In this way, Li You has been constantly instilling skepticism and mentioning the actual benefits that Pantaiya can get. Anyway, as long as the purpose of modifying the core doctrine is achieved, it is not difficult to leave other doctrines. Pantaiya also knew that what Li You said was actually trying to use Manichaeism to strengthen the control of Huoxun, but she also had to think about whether the original doctrine was really lacking, and whether it was really changed. Over.
In fact, the second is to revise the doctrine. The most important thing is not to form a religious group. It is one thing to have faith, and another to have a religious group. The Protestant group Li You mentioned is not the original one. Pantea didn't think much about it, she had been thinking about doctrine all the time.
And Li You also dug a hole for her, that is, whether the interests of the sect is the top priority or the top of the personal interest. If the interest of the sect is the top priority, how to expand the influence and let more people believe is the most important. Once you put this argument in the question, it is no longer difficult to choose to modify the doctrine that is more acceptable.
In the evening, Li Youcai finished talking with Pantaiya. Although the matter has not been settled yet, Li You is not in a hurry. He believes Pantaiya will agree.
Pantea returned to the house, and as soon as he entered the garden outside the hall, Yamokeli stepped forward and asked, "Holy Maiden, why have you been there for so long? What did Li You say?"
"He said that as long as I amend the doctrine, he will agree to make Manichaeism the state religion of Huoxunguo, build the Temple of Light, and re-establish the cult."
"The saint did you agree?"
Pantea shook his head and said: "I don't know what to do. Once I am revised, the followers of Manichaeism may grow up immediately, but amending the doctrine will completely erase the original doctrine. I really don't know the original. Is there a problem with the doctrine of Li You? Although I can't fully believe what Li You said, he does have some truth in what he said, and I don't want to give up this opportunity. I am a little confused now."
Yamokali and Nargulina didn't ask any more after listening. After all, they really couldn't help Pantai in this matter, so she could only let her think about what to do.
In the back garden of the bedroom, Li You and Yi Wu walked along the trail here with their son. They were talking about what they were discussing with Pan Tai Ya. Li You was confident anyway. He didn't think Pan Tai would refuse, after all. This is a good opportunity for Manichaeism to stand up.
"Husband, if you reform the doctrine like this, Pantea will really agree? And even if she agrees, is this still Manichaeism?"
"The doctrine of Manichaeism is too mature and complete, and the room for transformation is too small. If you want to use it, you can only redefine its doctrine, and you can only establish a large framework. You cannot improve it immediately, otherwise, The same is difficult to use. The doctrine of the Great Reformation is no way. As for it is not Manichaeism, haha, as long as we say it is, it is, nothing more than a new Manichaeism.
Yi Wu, you should know that Manichaeism also has believers in Chang'an. It is because they recognize that Buddha is a prophet, and only after Buddhism is carried out to a certain extent can they have some believers, regardless of whether its doctrine is Buddhism or not. , Since they can do this, what can't I do if I want to modify the doctrine. In addition, Pantea is young and only a saint. There is no actual right to teach in the Manichae Order. The understanding of the doctrine is not deep-rooted. I think she will agree, as long as I don’t erase it. Mani teaches three words, she can't say anything. "
Yi Wu nodded and asked, "Husband, if Manichaeism becomes the state religion, how should we control the sect?"
"Don't worry about this. The Protestant Mission is separate from the state and politics, not a united state. They only serve the state and do not need to be vigorously controlled. Besides, I don't intend to complete the new doctrine immediately. The room for changes can be changed when necessary in the future."
It did not come to Li You’s expectation. The next day, Pantea agreed to change the doctrine of Manichaeism. As for how to preach abroad, Pantea didn’t need to be in charge of it. She would be the only illuminator of Manichaeism to stay in the fire. Seek, understand the new doctrine. The Protestant group only established six missionary servants and some auxiliary teachers under the Illuminati. Such a Protestant group does not have many privileges. Nor will it develop into a big uncontrollable force. After all, the servants need to be appointed by the king, and there are still saints who are in charge of the servants. There are only two levels of leadership in the sect, and it is impossible for anyone to become a big one. . (End of this chapter)
