Chapter 286 (2/2)
East Asia has many similar moral ethics. ”After the Song Dynasty, Neo Confucian culture gained the upper hand, and the evolution of this period of ideological history also determined and influenced the” East Asian cultural circle ”, which then changed and became the” Confucian cultural circle ”in East Asia,” Japanese scholar bosuo kongshang said
In his book order and economy of Confucian cultural circle, Korean scholar Kim RI Kun said: ”Confucianism is the most advantageous traditional culture in Japan and Korea, and it still develops as order and principle. The success of the economic development of a country with Confucian culture is due to the adaptability of Confucian ethics to economic development. ”
The ”morality” of the Roman Empire was a spiritual tool to protect the interests of the slave owners and nobles, cheat and suppress the slaves. Ancient Rome believed that human beings were naturally divided into rulers and ruled by God. Slaves must obey God's will and willingly obey the master's orders.
Slave owners think that slaves are just a kind of ”living property and talking tool”, and deny that slaves have any freedom and power.
It is a very serious crime for a slave to kill his master, and he must be severely punished. It is ”moral” for a master to kill his slave at will, just to exercise his ownership of his own ”property”.
In the eyes of the ancient Romans, women were just a kind of domestic slaves, a tool for their husbands to do housework and have children. Their bodies are property owned by their husbands. Adultery is regarded as a shameful crime and a betrayal to their masters.
Roman law stipulates that a wife must obey her husband, and it is strictly forbidden to have sexual relations with anyone other than her husband. If the wife is found to be adulterous, she will be executed, while the husband will not be punished for having sexual relations with female slaves other than his wife.
All living beings have to go their own way, but what I want to do is to let all living beings have the right to choose, really give them the right to choose, let them have wisdom and hope, and choose their own destiny. It's just to protect the last right of all living beings. ” Fang Tianxing said with emotion.
”But who will appreciate you? They will only look at their own immediate interests. They will not appreciate others. What you have done is extremely stupid.” Xu Fan retorts directly.
”I know that I have tasted the taste of ignorance, my thoughts and thoughts are bound, I know that taste, and I don't want other people to have a clearer understanding of the world like me.” Fang Tianxing said with emotion.
This is Fang Tianxing's long cherished wish. He hopes that everyone can have wisdom, and that everyone can control and choose his own destiny instead of living in a muddle.
Fang Tianxing's career has no profit return. In history, there are always some people who are willing to fight for all living beings, some people live for themselves, and some people live for combustion. This is the meaning of their existence.
Xu fan doesn't understand Fang Tianxing's belief, just as Tongfang Tianxing refuses to go along with him. He doesn't understand why Fang Tianxing doesn't make money, but he wants to fight against the world. He says helplessly, ”if you can persuade me, I'll stop doing such things.”
Xu Fan has made an oath, and Fang Tianxing plans to change him, but where to start is difficult for Fang Tianxing. As the saying goes, it's easy to touch interests, but hard to touch soul. It's hard to change a person.
