"Since your monks are not clean, then what right do you have to talk about priests and our Bible?" Natasha said. She was not a believer, but she wanted to defend her boss's faith.
"The ones who are unclean are the fake monks, not the real monks. The real monks are not those bastards who live like princes and wear bright clothes." Xu Yun said, "Real monks and the Dharma Protectors who live in the temple strictly abide by the Buddhist precepts, such as eating only in the middle of the day and not eating after noon. They even beg for food on the way, planting an immeasurable and boundless seed for all living beings. "
Natasha said disdainfully, "There are so many monks in Hua Xia. Who can distinguish between real and fake?"
"It's very simple. People who don't eat after noon will never get fat. Real monks are not fat, even if they are slightly fat." Xu Yun said, "Furthermore, a true monk would not take any form of transportation while traveling. A true monk would practice the Buddhist Dharma in everything he does. Even the construction of temples and roads would be done by his own hands."
Natasha was stunned. "But in your most famous monk's mountain, the one who cleans the courtyard is not a monk, but a cleaner who is hired, right? And the so-called Holy Land of Wulin even hired security guards to guard the courtyard. "
"Wait, I don't deny what you said, but refer to the difference between real and fake monks I mentioned before. The abbot is as fat as a f * cking pig head. Do you think he follows the Buddhist precepts and doesn't eat after noon? Not to mention not eating after noon, his fat head is like a big pig head. He has a beer belly that can hold at least two cases of beer. "
"Then there are no real monks in Hua Xia!" Natasha said. She had been to Hua Xia and seen the most famous monk's temple in Hua Xia. It was said that all the martial arts in the world came from there. She had seen the abbot, and he was no different from those fat men in the outside world. The only difference was that he wore a kasaya. If a big brother of the same size wore a kasaya, he would look just like him.
"Mount Song is not the only monk's temple in Hua Xia." Xu Yun: "Remember, the real monks of Hua Xia will not accept those disgusting titles like PhD, MBA, Buddhist CEO, political monk, economic monk, white-collar elite monk, and so on."
Natasha was dumbfounded. "But the place I went to is the most famous one in Hua Xia!"
"You'd be a fool to believe that." Xu Yun shook his head. "As long as the Buddhist temples and Taoist temples are related to the scenic spots, many of them are playing the private contracting game. Those gangs are all openly using the name of religion. They are the fake monks that I was talking about. They deceive the one-stop service for the purpose of profiteering. Many fake monks are completely cloned. Even the tour guides' explanations are almost the same. If you believe this, it would be too funny. "
"Contracted?"
"From tour guides to handymen and even Taoist priests, the senior monks are all uniformly trained and packaged. They have set up a chain of traps, inviting you to burn incense in the urn. One incense stick can cost thousands or tens of thousands." Xu Yun: "But these people have nothing to do with the real monks. Nowadays, profiteering from the piety and faith of others is already a business."
"Then … then some of the pastors now are also fake pastors. They are not real pastors at all." Natasha was also twisting words.
Xu Yun couldn't help but laugh. "Our real monks have been promoting Buddhism since ancient times and are wholeheartedly doing good things. Baldwin, what did you Westerners believe in in the past? You more or less know the history of this thing, right? "
Baldwin did know a little about it, but he didn't know much about it.
"What did you do when you were preaching in the past? Those who didn't accept Christianity were almost always in danger of being slaughtered. After arriving at a place, if you don't receive them well, you will be slaughtered. What is this called? Whether it is the Americas, South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, or even Europe, the situation is the same. Can you imagine how many people were killed because they didn't accept this sect? "Xu Yun pressed.
"Also, you're not white, are you?" Xu Yun continued, "Back then, the slave trade was sanctioned and even encouraged by the Bible. Therefore, the believers had no qualms about selling, abusing, and even slaughtering black slaves. They felt that it was a matter of course, a normal business. I was puzzled. Did water enter the brains of those black believers? How can they believe the people who harmed them back then? "
"It can't be as serious as you make it out to be." Baldwin didn't believe it.
Xu Yun shrugged. "Anyway, someone said so. I didn't live in that era. Since someone passed it down, why wouldn't I believe whether it's true or false? You can believe in God, but not in history? "
Baldwin was once again rendered speechless by Xu Yun.
"I also heard that our Hua Xia's Eunuch Zheng arrived in North America one step earlier, but Eunuch Zheng didn't do anything wrong. It was the believers of this crooked sect who started massacring the Native Americans in order to take over the whole of North America. Those who believed in their religion were spared. Didn't they massacre tens of millions of people in North America? "Xu Yun said," You can't deny that they massacred the Native Americans, can you? "
There was no way to deny it. It was the truth.
"History says that during the Crusades, about a million innocent civilians, women, and children were massacred." Xu Yun said, "During the first Eastern Expedition, when the Crusaders conquered Jerusalem, the believers killed all the civilians, women, and children in the city. Not a single one was left alive."
Lin Ge wanted to curse when he heard that. These people were too inhumane. What a bunch of animals! And they said they were believers of God. They were practically demons from hell!
"During the second Eastern Expedition, a very influential French abbot who was later canonized as a saint said that the death of the pagans was the glory of their believers because God also gained glory!" Xu Yun said, "What kind of theory is that? In the thirteenth century, the crazy believers massacred about two hundred thousand Kadar believers because they were considered pagans! There were also hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians, women, and children who were killed in your bullsh * t religious courts, right? "
Baldwin was really speechless.
"Okay, I won't talk about these useless things with you." Xu Yun waved his hand. "You people don't have faith at all. You use the power of faith to do evil. I'm too lazy to talk to you. Anyway, you're definitely not a true believer."
Xu Yun's words left Baldwin with no way to refute. It was the truth. He was not a devout believer at all. There was nothing wrong with what he said.
"We'll be there soon after this." Baldwin changed the subject again.
The wealthy district of Columbus was not very far from the slums. It was less than ten kilometers, but the environment was like heaven and earth.
All kinds of high-end hotels, high-end clubs, and high-end entertainment venues appeared before Xu Yun and Lin Ge's eyes. The two of them suspected that they had arrived in another country. Look at the different kinds of girls on the streets.
There were all kinds of skin, hair, good figures, and beautiful faces. They could be taken out for a beauty pageant, but they were all around these high-end entertainment venues.
In fact, the crowd that these girls served was very clear. It was the drug lords who had endless money. These guys who made money easier than drinking water knew how to squander money like water, so they could earn countless dollars from these people.
That was why they were willing to stay and live in this place. They stayed here to enjoy the luxury.
This included these high-end establishments. Everyone was well aware of why people served them. Ordinary people from any country in the world, even the most advanced country with the highest wages, would never be able to afford to spend even a single time in these places.
The people who went in and out were all drug lords with money, status, and power, as well as officials who worked closely with the drug lords. Ordinary people? The economy was okay, but the country was very unstable. The currency was depreciating almost every day. It was unbelievable that ordinary people could come here to spend money.
"Looks like your daily life is pretty good," Lin Ge said unhappily. "Isn't it too decadent? I can smell a decadent smell through the car window … the kind of decadent smell that is purple and gold. "
