I am Jehovah. That is my name; and to no one else shall I give my own glory, neither my praise to graven images. (Is 42:8; John 3:16; John 17:24-26; Mt 6:10; Dan 2:44; Psalms 2:1-12)

Hugo: 孔子學院裡的鞠躬與下跪文化
在某孔子學院裡,孔子正在教學生所謂的“臣對君之禮”、“子對父之禮”、“卑對尊之禮” 、“晚輩對長輩之禮”、“下級對上級之禮”,A學生問孔子,“你為啥要我鞠躬?” ;孔子說,“《論語 鄉黨第十》說,‘孔子於鄉黨,恂恂如也,似不能言者。其 在宗廟朝廷,便便然;唯謹爾。…入公門,鞠躬如也,如不容。立不中門,行不履閾。過位,色勃如也,足躩如也,其言似不足者。攝齊升堂,鞠躬如也,屏氣似不息者。出降一等,逞顏色,怡怡如也;沒階趨進,翼如也;復其位,踧踖如也。…執圭,鞠躬如也;如不勝。上如揖, 下如授,勃如戰色,足蹜蹜如有循。享禮,有容色;私覿,愉愉如也。’,你不學鞠躬之禮,那麼我如何能讓你學會服從人的等級制與接受專制文化(Ecc 8:9)?那麼我如何能讓你學我與成為‘宦奴娼’呢?”
A學生又問孔子,“你為啥要我下跪?”;孔子說,“你不學下跪之禮,那麼我如何能教你‘君君臣臣父父子子’之道 ?那麼我如何能教你‘三綱五常’之道?那麼我如何能教你‘忠、孝、仁、義、禮、智、信’之道?那麼我如何能讓你學會服從人的等級制與接受專制文化(Ecc 8:9)?那麼我如何能讓你變成‘閹豬奴’呢?”
螢火蟲望著奴人的孔子學院氣憤地說,“經上說,‘Again the Devil took him along to an unusually high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory, and he said to him: All these things I will give you if you fall down and do an act of worship to me. Then Jesus said to him: Go away, Satan! For it is written, It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service.’(Mt 4:8-10),撒旦引誘人違反耶和華的誡命吃禁果(Gen 3:1-13),撒旦又引誘人違反耶和華的誡命(Exo 20:3-5; Deu 5:6-9; Ps 138:2; Ps 66:4; Ps 95:6; Is 27:13; Zec 14:16; 2 Ch 7:3)俯伏跪拜‘Other gods’(Deu 30:17-18; Is 2:8),這樣子撒旦不就可以在人間掌權當王(John 12:31; John 14:30; John 16:11; 1 John 5:19; 2 Cor 4:3-4)了嗎?”
