179、I'm not going to do anything(2/2)
Feng Junzi: "I have no prejudice against God. If I pass by the church and see Jesus on the cross, I will bow and bow. But I do not accept this belief, nor can I say I do not accept it. Instead, I do not believe in the doctrines in the Bible. Those who do not believe in God in their hearts receive baptism, and it is not God who deceives him, but himself. I think everyone understands this principle."
Feng Junzi did not refuse good intentions, but clearly refused the conditions. Avtina asked: "Why?"
Feng Junzi looked around and said to him: "The Buddha said that all beings are equal, do you know what do you mean?"
Jacob narrowed his eyes: "Mr. Wind is a Buddhist?"
Feng Junzi: "I am not a Buddhist, just like I am not a Christian, but I can read Buddhist scriptures and the Bible."
Jacob: "So is Mr. Feng a Taoist or a Confucian?"
Feng Junzi: "I am not a Taoist in the pure religious sense, and Confucianism is not the kind of religion you understand. The beliefs of those who are weak for thousands of years include a lot of thoughts on the great way of the world, cultivation, cultivation, and practice. The "Tao" I believe in, you can call it God, it depends on how you understand God."
Jacob: "Will Mr. Wind refuse?"
Feng Junzi: "I refuse, I hope you don't have prejudice against me."
Jacob sighed, obviously a little disappointed, but he felt relieved in his heart, and stood up and said, "Since that's the case, I won't disturb you much."
He was about to say goodbye, but Feng Junzi waved and said, "Wait, I can't let you come here for nothing. I have something to give you... Wife, go to the study to bring my book "Tao Te Ching".
Xiao Yunyi: "Which book?"
Feng Junzi: "Which book do you mean? Just one book!"
Xiao Yunyi frowned but still went to the study to get a thin book. There was a noticeable irregular and broken edge of the page. Feng Junzi handed it to the opposite side of the coffee table and said, "This book is my favorite reading. There are also annotations I personally added on it. Please give it to you as a gift. Sorry, the pages are a bit broken because I accidentally chewed by the neighbor's dog two days ago, but it doesn't matter. There is no shortage of words in it."
Feng Junzi handed over a ragged book that was bitten by a dog, and spoke seriously with a tense face, as if passing on some precious holy object. This "gift" is a pagan classic. Jacob stood opposite him and did not answer, and his expression was very awkward. Xiao Yunyi had turned around and her shoulders were trembling gently, but she was smiling but she refused to speak.
Avtina didn't want to embarrass Jacob, so she reached out to take the book and said: "In fact, the most wise and speculative philosophical masters in modern Western countries are thinking about how to understand God. I also know that you have no obligation to think about problems in this way. I have heard of this book. It is highly praised by real masters, so I will give it to me... Actually, I can guess that you will refuse, but from a personal perspective, if you accept it, it is my hope."
