Hugo: 大鑼鈸的貧困

在黑暗的世界裡,大鑼鈸對螢火蟲說,“猶太人讀《聖經‧舊約‧創世紀》時應該可以理解‘All men are created equal’的理念,猶太人讀《聖經‧舊約‧詩篇》時應該可以理解‘that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that they are among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’的理念,但是為什麼兩千年前的猶太人提不出類似‘The United States Declaration of Independence’(July 4, 1776)的宣言?”

“希臘人亞理士多德(Aristotle,主曆前384至主曆前322)的思想裡,也充滿了‘All men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that they are among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’的理念,但是他為什麼提不出類似‘The United States Declaration of Independence’(July 4, 1776)的宣言?”

“主曆2009的今天,大部份說漢語的人,都無法信仰‘All men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that they are among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’的理念,也提不出類似‘The United States Declaration of Independence’(July 4, 1776)的宣言,這是啥原因呢?”

螢火蟲提出了意見,“《聖經》說,‘If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. ’(1 Corinthians 13:1-3),如果沒有‘主耶穌基督的光與愛’的信仰,你如何能讓人類真正地信仰上述的理念與提出上述的的宣言?”
