Chapter 880 Science and Theology (Third update, please vote for me)

"Physics, biology, chemistry, and mathematics, these should all be very scientific subjects. These subjects should have helped you establish a complete world view. Why can you still learn theology?" Chen Zhao was curious. Look at Mrs. Peter.

There is a saying that the end of science is theology, and the end of theology is philosophy.

In fact, this is not the case. Science is a very rational thing.

Science is materialism, theology is idealism.

Science means that I believe in this existence and I want to prove this existence.

Theology is that if I think this exists, it must exist.

These are two completely different ways of thinking.

Therefore, it is difficult for Chen Zhao to imagine that a scientist would study theology.

"What about you?" Mrs. Peter looked at Chen Zhao: "Do you believe in the existence of God?"

Chen Zhao thought for a while, God?

He has seen demons, angels, and alien gods.

However, Chen Zhao still has doubts about whether God really exists.

Everyone has their own understanding of God.

In religious descriptions, God is omnipotent and omnipresent.

The views of atheists and theists are actually surprisingly similar.

Because both atheists and theists believe that God exists in everyone's heart.

"I belong to the swing group." Chen Zhao replied: "I only believe what I see."

"Then you belong to the rational group." Mrs. Peter said with a chuckle.

Chen Zhao looked at Mrs. Peter. She should have been a beautiful woman when she was young.

Even though his appearance has aged, he still has a graceful and luxurious temperament.

In fact Mrs. Peter is not very old now.

"I used to be a rationalist, a very pure rationalist, even an atheist." Mrs. Peter said.

"So what changed you?"

"Haha...forget it, it was nice chatting with you, let's change the topic." Chen Zhao was stunned for a moment.

Weren't we having a great time chatting? Why did the topic suddenly change?

"By the way, you said before that you have never studied medicine and cannot study medicine. Why is this? Is it a family tradition?"

"Actually, this question goes back to the previous topic."

Mrs. Peter looked at Chen Zhao: "You are also a person who likes to explore secrets."

"Everyone is curious, aren't they?"

"Then what I'm going to say next, just think of it as a supernatural story. Don't question me. I don't accept questioning."

"For you to say this means that you have been questioned many times in the past."

"I said it to share, not to be questioned." Mrs. Peter said: "It was one night three years ago. It was a bit cold that night. I was sitting in a wheelchair reading "Feynman Lectures on Physics", and then a A man appeared in front of me. He was wearing a wide-brimmed felt hat and a red patterned scarf. I couldn't see his face clearly, and he asked me if I would like to stand up."

Chen Zhao raised his head in surprise and looked at Mrs. Peter's legs: "Mrs. Peter, your legs..."

"I've been in a wheelchair for fifty years," Mrs. Peter said. "I was born with a deformed thigh."

No wonder, how can normal people spend so much time studying.

I'm afraid only people like her, who spend their whole life in a wheelchair, spend all their time studying.

"I told him I'm willing to stand up no matter what it takes, I want to stand up."

"He said that I can stand up, but I must agree to his request. I cannot study medicine. If I study medicine, I will not only lose my legs, but also more."

A devil's contract? But what does this contract mean?

This kind of request is not acceptable at all, right?

"So, you stood up?"

"Yes, I slept for a while, and then my legs became like normal people." Mrs. Peter looked at Chen Zhao: "That man was like a messenger of God. From that time on, I believed in God." The presence."

Messenger of God? Chen Zhao looked at Mrs. Peter.

"So do you have any bad feelings?"

"No, I feel fine."

Chen Zhao originally wanted to ask Mrs. Peter to show him his legs.

But after thinking about it, I feel that this request is a bit too much.

Moreover, Chen Zhao was not sure whether this story was true.

Even as a paranormal person, this story sounds incredible.

There are still many unreasonable places in it.

I don’t know that Mrs. Peter didn’t clarify the story when she made it up.

Or really a messenger of God.

To Chen Zhao, this is just an imperfectly crafted supernatural story or fairy tale.

"So is this why you study theology? Do you want to find a reasonable explanation for your own fate?"

"You can say that."

"So have you ever thought about what if this was a devil's deal?"

"Child, I know what you are thinking. I study theology, and of course I have been exposed to demon religion. No matter which religion it is, demons represent transactions, giving and gaining. A scholar once said that in fact, the original image of the birth of demons is They are businessmen, and businessmen make huge profits through transactions. People seem to be fair in transactions, but in fact their interests have been damaged." Mrs. Peter said: "But I didn't pay anything, so I don't believe it has anything to do with the devil."

"Forbidden to study medicine, doesn't it count as a contribution?"

"I think this is a warning, not a deal. Maybe God saw my future and gave me some kind of warning."

When Mrs. Peter said this, Chen Zhao lost interest in continuing the discussion.

Because you can't go with a believer and question his faith.

She chose to believe in God because God formed her worldview.

To argue and question her is not to challenge her God, but to challenge her worldview.

She believes that her knowledge is the truth.

She told herself that it was not to share, but to gain some kind of support.

Chen Zhao couldn't deny her, no matter what he said, she wouldn't believe it.

What's more, Chen Zhao himself was not sure whether what Mrs. Peter said was true.

"Mrs. Peter, it's getting late, I should leave."

Chen Zhao stood up and said goodbye to Mrs. Peter.

"Well, my son, God bless you."

Although their perceptions, or philosophies, are different, Mrs. Peter is still a very amiable person.

"If you have time, you can come over and stay with me... Of course, I will pay your consultation fee."

"If you happen to be free, I'd be happy to visit as long as you don't turn me away."
