Caiaphas, the high priest of Judaism, crushed the budding Christianity, and was attacked by a millennium, which stalled the realization of the practical goals of the two religions (referring to the coming of the Messiah/the restoration of the kingdom). On the surface, Christianity has so far attracted about one-third of the people on the planet as believers. However, in fact, it is difficult to determine whether the clothing, food, housing, transportation, birth, old age, sickness and death, social activities, and cultural life of its followers are mostly infiltrated by Christianity, or by multinational corporations, social institutions, and political groups influenced by Jews.
Objectively, however, the development of Christianity hindered the formation of a feudal monarchy and a unified state integrating politics and religion in Europe. This historical achievement is first attributed to Theodosius I (r. c. 379-395), the last emperor of the Roman Empire. At the time of his reign, China was in the midst of the "Five Hu Chaos", and the Sima family had already been expelled by nomads to Jiankang (present-day Nanjing) to establish the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In 383, Xie An and Fu Jian fought the famous "Battle of Huangshui" in present-day Shou County, Anhui Province. Twelve years later, on his deathbed in Milan, Italy, the "I" made Christianity the state religion and divided the empire into two halves, east and west, and passed it on to his two sons.
In 476, the Western Roman Empire (with Britain, France, Italy and other countries all in its territory) was destroyed by the army of the "barbarian" Germanic Odoac, and it was divided into several small states. Then the countries were either annexed by powerful empires or unified themselves. However, reunification requires the burning Christianity to win the hearts of the people, and the Chinese-style centralized power of the divine authority of the monarchy and the integration of politics and religion to seize the power of the state.
This is certainly not possible. For kings of all nations had no intention of thinking whether Jesus was human or divine, whether Jesus had the will of man or the will of God...... They also refuse to delve into the doctrine and participate in the controversies of "Christ's Monology", "Christ's Monophysis" and so on, which have been debated by successive popes—they are proud of their own bloodlines, they think they represent God, and they can be sons of "one God", but they do not want to be the younger brother of Jesus, who came from a carpenter's family—and even if they want to, they cannot be "related".
In short, kings used the influence of Christianity among the people, and did not convert to it sincerely, and devoted themselves to the establishment of the JHWH promise, or the "kingdom of priests" of Jehovah's gospel. The Christian pope would not let a king of a country be the supreme religious leader, combining royal and divine power – even if he wanted to, no king would have such prestige, and no other king would agree to it.
After the division of the Roman Empire, what were the successive popes of Christianity busy with? First, they were busy arguing and unifying the concepts of denominations and believers, but the interpretations of the "Trinity" by successive generations of popes were contradictory. The second is to expel and suppress heretics, including non-pagans such as "Manichaeism" and "infidels" within the church such as the Bellaquis and Nestorian sects, who expound their own doctrines. Third, they are busy developing the church, taking advantage of the contradictions of various countries to provoke royal power, recruiting believers, collecting land, and making money diligently......
After centuries of development and becoming the rich man whose ecclesiastical territory occupies about one-third of the land in Western Europe, successive popes have been like Gregory VII and Innocent III, fighting for power and profit with the kings of various countries, and the kings of various countries have not been assisted by the sole, stable and long-term assistance of the Christian "theocracy", and the unification of the Christian states in Europe and Asia and the establishment of a theocratic empire can only be in vain - but after Catholicism was adopted by some kings for their own use, the current Germany, Italy, The borders of France and other countries were quickly consolidated on a large scale.
In the long run, it is also a good thing that Europe has not been able to reunify. First, the separation of divine power and monarchical power, no matter whether it is the kings of various countries or the Roman pope, they cannot strictly control the thoughts, words and deeds of their subjects, arbitrarily suppress or even pervert their actions. Lenovo Han and Tang cool officials, Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei, Dongchang, Xichang, Qing Dynasty literary prison, secret folding system, European princes, courtiers, feudal lords, city-state lords, literati, artists, etc., should be grateful to Dade Christianity for their "decentralization" role in their kings.
Second, through the mission, evangelism, and periodic sacramental activities of churches and churches in various places, Christianity conveys the Holy Spirit of Jehovah and Jesus to the vast number of believers, allowing them to repent and atone for their sins, and treat each other as sisters and brothers, so that they can often obtain their own psychological values, emotional needs, and even the virtual satisfaction of higher-level needs.
Despite the separation of politics and religion, the hierarchical social value system of European countries developed as it did under the Chinese dynasties. However, Christian priests, preachers, priests, and pastors are far closer to the people than officials in the Central Plains. In particular, they regularly sit in the confessional room with the Bible in their hands and guide believers in communicating with the Holy Spirit. The extent to which Christians and the people of the Son of Heaven are bathed in the brilliance of "God" is very different in breadth, depth, and frequency—how many people can see the Son of Heaven and hear his heavenly voice in their lives!
In this way, similar actions of Christianity are of great significance to the human enhancement of the vast number of believers in Europe, whose potential creativity in tool research and development, manufacturing, technological (technological) innovation, and even literature, art, science, philosophy, etc., has been unleashed over thousands of years, accumulating over time, and becoming more and more qualitatively elevated—even the "darkness" of the Middle Ages cannot be imprisoned.
In contrast, the development trend of creativity among the people under the rule of the Emperor of Heaven in the Chinese dynasties has flourished and declined as a whole. After the Two Song Dynasty, especially in the Ming and Qing dynasties, they were more and more crushed into the "dried fish" of the imperial magnates from the fluffy and soft "baked cakes" on the "Qingming Shanghe Tu", and then quickly degenerated into Mr. Lu Xun's Kong Yiji, Zijun, Ah Q, Xianglin's sister-in-law, and middle-aged leap soil...... Spectators.
The main reason for this is that the repeated development of the social productive forces, the prosperity and convenience of the citizens' economy, and the efficiency of the operation of the state apparatus are not to ease and correct the antagonism between the rulers and the ruled and their respective paranoia, but to first use the thinking of the "eight shares" of the people, hypnotize the minds of the people, refine the bodies of the people, shackle the hands and feet of the people, and destroy the dignity of the people...... The strengthening of imperial power to the extreme and the taming of the people to the end were the prominent features of the evolution of the Chinese Dynasty to the historical stage of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
