Chapter 115 good and evil

In the evening, I squatted on the roof alone, holding the altar girl red, holding a pig's trotter, and drinking by myself. I was very depressed, and I couldn't figure out some things. On the way back from outside, I met a large group of people, both men and women, dressed in white, surrounded by a sedan chair, singing and dancing, and swaggering through the city. Liu Yan said that it was the White Lotus Sect, a cult that spread fallacies and heresies to confuse others, causing wives to disperse. This guy even snapped his fingers to give examples one by one: In Shouzhang County, a peasant woman sold all the land deeds of her house in order to join the sect. In Qingfeng County, a middle-aged man became supernatural after joining the religion, and hanged himself because he could not be an elder; in Dongming County, a believer killed his son who had left the religion.

I wondered, since it is a fallacy, why do so many people still believe it? Liu Yan said that fallacies and heresies can brainwash and then control people's souls. People believe deeply, and it is rare to wake up in a lifetime. Cults are so fucking scary, I thought. After thinking about it, I was a little confused again. Is "loyal to the emperor and serving the country" unreasonable, otherwise why so many people would rather commit suicide than surrender? Is the "imperial examination" unreasonable, or why do so many people study hard for more than ten years in order to pass the exam?There are also many people who committed suicide after failing the exam.

Is "doing justice on behalf of the sky" also fallacious, otherwise why do so many people abandon their families and children and come to join? So, could it be that Liangshan is also a cult?The imperial court is also a cult? What is right?What is evil?
