Chapter 1495: Chapter 487: Liberation Theology_2

The United States, Europe... Too many terrorist organizations are founded with good intentions, but ultimately shift to extremes due to reality and internal conflicts.

New Dynasty Elegance didn’t deny this, but instead responded,

"Christianity began as a religion of the poor; Jesus was just a simple, kind-hearted carpenter. But the upper classes, corrupted by money and power, uncontrollably drifted towards alienation, eventually resulting in what we see today."

"None of us can predict what the future will be like, but we must attempt to find a way forward; otherwise, we will always remain stagnant."

New Dynasty Elegance was well aware that most players held negative views towards religion, specifically Christianity, yet he emphasized,

"Religion is not as simple as we used to think. People in the past believed that after entering SH ideology, with the improvement of living and education standards, religious consciousness would naturally fade. But in fact, the opposite is true."

"The New China has been established for over 60 years, and there have been more than 30 years of reforms. People’s material lives have improved, education levels have risen, but instead of fading, there’s a revival of religious consciousness. In the western regions with deep religious traditions among minority groups, religious awareness is rising, and the formerly prosperous southeastern coastal regions are seeing a rapid growth of religious believers."

"Religion has deep-rooted reasons for existing, and not only will it persist long-term, it may even develop during certain periods."

"In short, we must regard religion with a scientific approach, formulate correct policies to solve religious issues, and promote organized and orderly religious activities through effective management and guidance, directing religion to adapt to society."

These bureaucratic words stunned not only the other two players, but even Li De.

He could be certain that the person in front of him didn’t believe in any religious dogma. At least no religious follower would talk about managing religion in such a manner.

Even the European Community wouldn’t dare to say this to the Vatican, because such words imply that the manager is one rank higher than God, which is a great blasphemy.

But New Dynasty Elegance actually had more to say.

Some issues were beginning to emerge as the player unit area’s activity density decreased.

In Night City, with so many players, the surrounding people could be influenced towards collective subconscious shifts, and thanks to Night City’s inherent diversity, these issues didn’t manifest.

But the United States is ultimately a religious nation. Players going to different states face a decrease in numbers and cannot obtain grassroots discourse power locally. The methods used in Night City are not effective when transferred elsewhere.

Including the recovery industry chain and the universal employment bills Lin Miao is currently promoting, facing countless resistances everywhere, while not daring to expose ideological issues, using Keynesian policies and corporate welfare as a cover.

The core issue lies in the Federal Government lacking grassroots governance authority and not receiving spontaneous support from the people. Once Lin Miao is exposed, it would invite total annihilation.

So what can quickly garner support and response from the grassroots of a religious country without being branded as a red element?

It’s still religion.

And this [Super Bible] actually has another name.

It’s called [Liberation Theology], originating from priests in the left-wing guerrilla forces of last century’s Latin America, definitely more legitimate than the swarm in Atlanta.

[If Jesus appeared in this era, he too would be a staunch member of the GCD, fighting for the cause of liberating all mankind.]

This is just the Super Earth Edition of the New American Federation’s distinctive Liberation Theology, retaining the core of Liberation Theology while incorporating content composed by New Dynasty Elegance.

"I don’t care about these things; I just hope we don’t become enemies in the future, and these things shouldn’t interfere with our current mission."

Li De stepped on the brake as they arrived at the highway inspection point in the city center.

A few police officers immediately surrounded them upon seeing the unfamiliar license plate.

"Strangers? Show your documents."

Generally, wealthy people would enter the city center in a hovercar, while only those down on their luck ride a four-wheeled car, and these cops are parasites that feed off the wretched, much like bandits.

"Alright officer, one moment."

Fortunately, Li De used a bionic simulation prosthetic, or, considering his skin color, the police might have emptied their magazines as soon as he moved.

Atlanta itself is a bizarre city filled with racial struggles; even the Klan came to develop here, which speaks volumes.

As Li De let himself be checked honestly while presenting his documents, New Dynasty Elegance in the back seat rolled down his window as well. He took out a document from his bag and handed it over.

"May God bless you, officer."

At this moment, New Dynasty Elegance had a thick, gilded Bible on his lap and a cross hanging from his chest. When the officer glanced down at the document, his hand shook.

He quickly returned the document to New Dynasty Elegance.

"I apologize, Father, this is just our job."

New Dynasty Elegance kindly said,

"No problem, God will forgive every lost sheep."

As for the document prepared by Li De, those officers barely glanced at it before hastily letting them through.

In a city filled with cults, no one knows better than these officers what a legitimate priest signifies—even they belong to some evangelical sect themselves. Even if the registration is not in Atlanta, who can really tell?

"What did you show them?"

Cybercles snatched the document from New Dynasty Elegance’s hand and was shocked upon seeing it.
