Chapter 3046 Kiss of Honor (Part 2)

The Supreme Court of the Second German Reich once heard such a case.

There were two journalists who bribed the servants of Bismarck's mansion to enter his room and took the last photo of Bismarck during his lifetime.

In the photo, Bismarck is lying on the bed dying. Once infected by the Black Death, which is prevalent in Eastern Europe, he will have a nosebleed. Bismarck has a beard on his lips. At first glance, he seems to have a nosebleed. His head was still bandaged, not because he was injured, although Bismarck had been assassinated before.

The vast majority of people die with their mouths open, and binding the bandages can make people look better when they pay their respects to Bismarck.

In order to make the photo look real, the two reporters also arranged the scene. It is obvious that there is a clock on the bedside table on the right side of the photo, which is facing the camera, so that people can see the exact time when the photo was taken.

At that time, the opinion of the Supreme Court of the Second Empire was: If a person should be allowed to openly keep what he obtained by illegal means, and take it from another person who has legal title to the thing, it is not in accordance with the sense of natural justice. .

As a result, the two reporters did not get rich because of this photo, but were put in prison instead.

Everyone has a personal sense of "rightness," as Aristotle argued: we can find that this sense is naturally rooted in people by examining all people's thinking about a sense of rightness.

Whether it is Bismarck or ordinary people, what journalists do is wrong, although the vast majority of people have no interest in watching the last moments of ordinary people's lives, and no one will bribe staff like journalists when it is not profitable.

Kant once told such a story, there was a pawn shop owner, one day a layman came to his shop to pawn things, the shop owner knew that he could give less money to the customer, and he would not be punished, at least the customer would not know . But the shopkeeper still thinks "If I pay less money, maybe there will be rumors, my reputation will be damaged, and my business will be affected", and finally the shopkeeper did nothing wrong, he gave the correct money to the customer.

German jurists' arguments for "natural sense of right" are not limited to its historical sources, but also the legitimacy of what we feel to be just.

There is a man named Billing who pointed out that "unless we think that the human mind is basically similar in its structure, any legal science is inconceivable". That strong sense of what constitutes 'right' is said to be influenced by 'subjectivity', whereas what is in question is a property of definite volitional content, of 'objective' legitimacy derived from all Concepts and concepts that are basically similar in the intellectual structure of human law theory and practice.

That is to say, it is necessary to replace the mind with human intellectual nature to identify whether certain legal content is just or unjust under the generally valid conditions.

We often think that freedom is to act according to our own wishes, or to get what we want without obstacles, but when we seek pleasure, or satisfy desires, and avoid pain like animals, what we actually follow is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages instinct. Bentham believed that people are dominated by pain and happiness. When the total benefits brought about minus the "cost", the correct choice should be the one that maximizes "happiness".

Kant believed that it was rationality that made people different from animals, that human beings were no longer creatures with only desires, but existed independently, with the ability to act and choose freely.

Newt once delivered a message for Dumbledore to Vogel, the German Minister of Magic, to "do the right thing, not the easy thing."

If the pawnbroker receives the treasure and treats it as ordinary jewelry, such as a locket, it is very common and not as rare as a diadem. But this locket once belonged to a famous person, and it would sell for a high price to someone who knows the goods, but the person who pawned it didn't know its value.

Huge benefits can make people take risks. After doing this, he will live comfortably for the rest of his life. Why worry about whether there will be business in the future?

Even if he wants to do "just things", his small shop simply can't give so much money to customers, let alone he doesn't have to worry about being punished.

Although he was very reluctant, the shop owner told the pawnbroker the truth, that his shop would not accept the pawn, and suggested that the pawnbroker go to another shop to pawn.

Others may not necessarily be the same as him, not to mention the people who pawn things are in urgent need of money, otherwise they wouldn't be pawning family heirlooms.

Sprite has a slogan: obey your desire (obey your thirst).

At the time Lily’s house refrigerator contained only Coke, a dark syrup, and Pomona didn’t know clear soda.

She wasn't thirsty, just curious about what it tasted like, and then went to Muggle London to experience it.

There is an idiom called "Looking at plums to quench thirst". There was a general in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He found no water source on the marching road, but he did not tell the soldiers honestly. Instead, he said that there was a plum forest not far away, and the soldiers wanted to drink sour plum water Inspired, the mouth secreted saliva, accelerated the marching pace, and luckily found a water source.

The dog who heard Pavlov's ringing the bell did not see or eat the food, and salivated "involuntarily" in his mouth, but it was not born to associate the ringing bell with food. At first it heard The ringtone does nothing.

When a person is a baby, his desire for money is not as strong as when he is an adult. The way he obtains food is "mother", and he will cry when he is hungry.

St. Augustine said that the so-called "self-evident" is the knowledge we are born with. Once we know the noun, it will be recognized immediately. When people understand the meaning of the word, they will immediately understand its existence.

So if it is not driven by desires and longings, what is free action and free decision?

Kant believes that autonomous action is to act according to the laws established by oneself, rather than to act according to the purpose given to us from outside.

His explanation is too complicated. Pomona thinks that Zhuangzi's theory can be used. "Zai You" mentioned the story of Dong Shi's imitation. Dong Shi saw that everyone praised Xi Shi's beauty, so he also frowned like her. She didn't know Xi Shi There is a "sick heart", but the pursuit of secular recognition.

In order to gain this kind of worldly recognition, she did things that violated her own heart and nature, not because of survival crisis, this kind of submission from external pressure.

This desire (desire) is different from thirst (thirst), but it also comes from the outside world. When she acts according to these, she loses her freedom, although she can dress herself like other beauties instead of Shih Tzu, just like her It is free, like obeying "thirst" and choosing Coca-Cola or Sprite.

Kant believed that what endows human dignity is autonomous action, which is worthy of respect. St. John of the Cross said, "To get the happiness you never had, you have to go the way you don't like". Kant believes that even if this road does not bring you flowers and applause, even if you try your best, good will will not achieve anything, it still shines like jewels, or as his epitaph wrote "There are two things, The more deeply and persistently I meditate on them, the more often do they evoke wonder and awe in my soul, the stars above me and the morals in my heart."

Therefore, Kant believes that it is inappropriate for utilitarians to use others in order to maximize "happiness".

Richard Parker didn't want to die either, and of course the others didn't want to die either, and it was easy for others to convince themselves of your family and how much they would suffer without you.

But how to persuade a person who is full of love and hope for life to give up his own life so that others can have a chance to live? Or go back alive and live happily with your family. Because orphans are alone? no one misses

Based on respect for people, Kant believes that we have the duty to protect ourselves. Most people who love life don’t think about self-cutting. They think that only those who live in misfortune have this motivation.

When the Black Death was raging, there were economic depression and war. Facing such a painful situation, some people longed for death to take them away.

There are also people who want to stay alive by all means.

If life is a need to be continued at any cost, then destruction is a priceless luxury.

Physical lust destroys the normal structure of the closed being of the "playmate," and most of them are decent, polite, and well-bred in public.

Death is not a payment when it is due, but a change in the hue of life, and death is often depicted in black robes when bright colors were the fashion.

To record the short and fragile life in an "eternal" way, there is no need to lament that the face is easy to age, and the hero is short of breath. Tragic death can happen at any time, but art is still full of vitality. No matter what they have experienced before, what painters feel is passion and spontaneity, they are no longer a tool holding a brush, drawing stories from the Bible.

People enjoy themselves in a timely manner to enrich their lives, so that they will not leave any regrets in their lives, rather than losing their lives.

Death sublimates tragedy, and Ophelia in Hamlet floats away down a brook full of flowers. There is a poem that says: God forgot her, first the face, then the hands, and finally the hair.

She was elsewhere even before she drowned, and many of the people we have forgotten are still alive, but they are no longer vivid and colorful in our memory.

Young Werther's "trouble" is not only love, but also career. He believes that if a person is desperately chasing fame and fortune just for others, without his own love and needs, then this person is a fool.

He saw ordinary people living in their own narrow circle of life, living happily and calmly, getting by day by day, and seeing the fallen leaves, he could only think of winter.

Socrates said, young man, the grapes are lost, go forward, there are more delicious grapes ahead. The young man who lost his love said no, he wanted to express his sincerity with his own life. Socrates said, if you do that, you will not only lose your lover, but also yourself.

At least Werther's knowledge is affirmed, not only by the woman he likes, but also by the earl who appreciates him.

Although Goethe was in the era, Nietzsche had not yet been born, "Don't forget yourself in love" Socrates said, if he listened to what the woman who made a marriage contract with others said.

Be a man, and your wit, your knowledge, your talents will give you all kinds of happiness.

Grindelwald likes to say "love" as much as Dumbledore, and he is also as eloquent.

Grindelwald justified the war through a series of performances, and many people got lost in the illusion he created.

Is saving the world the "right" thing to do? Is this another kind of "natural justice" different from fighting against oppression?

Those who agree with him and join him are not criminals but heroes.

It is easy for people to find justifications for their actions. Some people live regardless of good and evil. When they go to public places, they may not always receive fresh and interesting information. human emotional impact.

At least Kant thought that the shopkeeper's behavior was immoral, even though he eventually gave the customer enough gold coins, because his purpose was self-interested nature, not moral obligation.

Or in other words, the owner is not doing it because "I want to be a good person", but because he wants to look like a good person.

Pomona felt that Dumbledore was not as bad as Severus said, and he acquiesced that Severus used his image to say those words to the Ministry of Magic officials. But Dumbledore does need to take care of his hair, even though he's not as bald as the school song says he is.

After driving Delphine away, the Muggle tailor never made a single dress, and all the fabrics turned into ribbons in his hands, as if cursed.

The curse is not so easy to unravel, not to mention the school promised to provide support for Ruth's research project, it is best to leave in this peaceful way.

There are many dangers in this forest, including the poisonous snake that Severus let go just now, they could have stayed here, saying that everything is dangerous. Now that the Ministry of Magic has decided that Spark is "dangerous", let them go back to the North Pole, the Scottish summer is too hot for it.

Spark and Ruth are inseparable. He doesn't get along well with students, no, it should be said that they are "human beings". Unlike Dumbledore, he still keeps in touch with students after graduation.

Not everyone takes teachers seriously, the salary is low, and there are many things to do. The only advantage is that you can use the resources of the school, especially the master of potions. After leaving the school, it is difficult to find so many materials to do experiments, Slug Due to various inconveniences, it was difficult for Horn to improve in the academic field, although he did not do much research in school.

Werther didn't understand how hard it was for a woman to give up a stable life to live with a man like him.

There is a Princess Margaret in the British royal family. When she was 15 years old, a Royal Air Force pilot named Townsend was called to Buckingham Palace to become the deputy housekeeper of the British royal family.

They fell in love, and soon the major papers carried the affair, and Townsend was married at the time. The people hope that the lovers will be married, but when the princess grows up and gets to know someone fresher, she loses interest in the dull Townsend, and in the end she does not marry Colonel Townsend.

After the war, the Princess used to hang out with the Beatles, regardless of the presence of the band members, and once the band was late to rehearsal, there was a show the next day, and they wanted to go home. But because the princess didn't leave, they didn't dare to leave. The princess, who listened to the song with gusto, realized her negligence after a long time. She apologized quickly, and then the others left.

Despite the adjustments, the band members still couldn't stand her regal aura. These young people on Liverpool Street have no etiquette training. They still speak with a strong Liverpool accent, but they can't hear it when they sing.

"If you were going to work in the palace, would you know how to bow down?" Pomona asked Severus.

He looked at her with surprised eyes, as if she had said something thoughtless.

Pomona flashed him the smile he had practiced for years.

He sneered, without saying a word, then turned his head and walked in the forest.

Pomona hurriedly followed, but luckily he didn't walk fast this time, so she followed easily.

An American poet wrote: two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and sorry I couldn’t travel both. then took the other, as just as fair.

Now the leaves in the forest are not yellow, but green.

Since Lily said, "I can't pretend any longer, you chose your way, I chose mine", so she has to keep going.

It is inevitable that people will have regrets in their lives. Some people are dying because of regrets and refuse to leave, turning into pearly white ghosts, while others choose to continue walking.

As for where it leads, only they know. After all, no dead person has ever returned, and it is common sense that people cannot be resurrected after death. But the horse people said that the mysterious person will return again, which is really unbelievable.

But do they need to lie to humans?
