Hugo:那被撒但腦殘化的殷海光

在黑暗的世界,殷海光鳥對烏鴉說,“民主與自由不是一件事!我們常常使用的名詞,往往也就是我們不甚了解的名詞。民主和自由就是其中之二。多年以來,這兩個名詞常被連在一起來說,因此造成大家一個印象,以爲民主與自由不可分,甚至二者是一回事。這樣的印象有修正的必要。……通常把民主與極權對稱;自由與專制對稱。這是亂點鴛鴦 譜,配錯了對兒。民主政制的反面是專制政制。自由主義的反面是極權主義。這也就是說,在專制政制之下一定沒有民主政制;可是不一定沒有自由主義。在極權主義之下一定沒有自由主義;可是不一定沒有民主政制。民主政制和自由主義的排列組合一共有四個可能。第一,既民主又自由。如果一個國邦的民主制度完成了,比如說有一部象樣的紙上憲法,也有選舉,同時又已把自由主義收作社會文化的基本價值,比如說極尊重個人的尊嚴和基本人權,那麽這個國邦便是既民主又自由的,例如,美國、英國、瑞士、澳洲,等等。第二,有民主而少自由。如果一個國邦的民主制度完成了,比如說有一部寫在紙上的民主憲法,也有選舉,可是卻無視個人的尊嚴和基本人權並且有計劃地挫抑自由主義,那麽這個國邦便是有民主而少自由的。第二次世界大戰以後東歐若干小國便屬這類。第三,無民主而有自由。如果一個國邦行的是專制政制,但是在社會文化上有相當的自由,那末這個國邦便是無民主而有自由的。歐洲自近代國家出現以後,在君王的專制統治之下,人民享有相當的自由。就中國的歷史而論,在兩種情況之下出現這種局面;一,帝國大統一,無外患內憂,太平盛世來臨的時候。二,帝國的末世,統治鬆弛,朝代世系形將轉換之際。清末到民初出現過這種美麗的朝霞。可惜朝霞過後就是正午的驕陽。第四,既無民主又少自由。如果一個國邦沒有民主的憲法,沒有選舉,實行的是專制政制,而且又不把人當人,那末這個國邦便是既無民主又少自由的。這一排列組合不止是一邏輯的可能。這種可能的實例在地球上也不太少。”’(《中國文化的展望》第十二章 民主與自由之第一節)

烏鴉說,“經上說,‘Now Jehovah is the Spirit; and where the spirit of Jehovah is, there is freedom.’(2 Cor 3:17),你所說的‘民主’不具有‘Constitutional Republic’與‘Tripartite Separation of Powers(Separation of executive, legislative, and judicial powers)內涵,你所說的‘自由’不等於‘Liberty’(2 Cor 3:17; John 18:36; 1 Cor 2:12; 1 Cor 6:19-20; Exo 9:1; Exo 8:20-21; John 8:32),你不知道嗎?”

“人類最真確的‘Liberty’的定義來自於《Holy Bible》,‘Liberty’必須建立在‘Jehovah's commandments and Jesus' gospel’(Is 42:8; Mt 22:36-40; Exo 20:2-17; Deu 5:6-21; Mt 4:10)上,‘Liberty’必須具有‘All Human Beings Are Created in the Image of God’(Gen 1:26; Gen 2:7)、‘Spirit of Liberty’(2 Cor 3:17; John 18:36)、‘Freeman’(1 Cor 2:12; 1 Cor 6:19-20; Exo 8:20; Exo 9:1; John 8:32)、 ‘Individual dignity, integrity, faith, hope, love, justice, morality, freedom, liberty, creativity, joy, happiness and peace’、‘Individual self-faith, self-esteem, self-respect, self-integrity, self-dignity, self-morality, self-honor, self-confidence, self-reliance, self-discipline, self-control, self-management, self-government, self- responsibility, self-defense, self-protection, self-directed morals, Self-enforced orientation’(Gen 1:26; Acts 24:25; 1 Tim. 3:2-3; 2 Pet. 2:19; 1 Thessalonians 4:1-12; 1 John 2:16; Mark 7:14-23; Gal. 5:19-21; 2 Cor. 10:3-5; Eph. 6:10-18; Col. 2:20-23; Titus 1:8; Gen 2:7)、‘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’(Gen 1:27; Acts 17:26; Rom 2:6; Rom 2:11; Rom 10:12; Acts 10:34-35; Acts 17:26; Malachi 2:10; 1 Peter 1:17-19; Eph 6:5-9; Gal 2:6; Col 2:23-25; Eze 18:30-32; James 2:1-9)等內涵,你怎麼可以用‘漢文字’ (Monosyllabic hieroglyphics,大巫師所設計的充滿了巫毒與詛咒的符號)來理解‘Constitutional Republic’與‘Liberty’?你不知道‘漢文字’是撒但設計給‘那些願意接受腦殘化(1 Cor 2:14-15; 2 Cor 4:3-4)、虛無化(Is 40:17; Ecc 1:1-18; Ecc 3:19; Ps 62:9; Ps 78:33; Ecc 5:10;Jer 16:19)與邪惡化(Gen 3:15; John 8:44)者’的文字嗎?”

“如果你不能成為‘A new creation’(2 Cor 5:17-18; 2 Cor 5:20; Phi 3:20; 1 Cor 6:19-20; 1 Cor 2:12) ,那麼你如何能成為‘Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, John Jay, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton’?那麼你如何能了解‘《The Mayflower Compact》(1620), 《The Virginia Declaration of Rights》(1776), 《United States Declaration of Independence》(1776),《The Articles of Confederation》(1781), 《The Virginia Statute of Religious Liberty》(1786),《The United States Constitution》(1789), 《United States Bill of Rights》,《The Amendments to the United States Constitution》, 《Abraham Lincoln: Gettysburg Address》(1863), 《Martin Luther King: I Have a Dream》(1963), 《Ronald Reagan speaking at the Annual Convention of the the National Association of Evangelicals》(1983), 《Ronald Reagan speaking in front of the Brandenburg Gate at the Berlin Wall(Tear down this wall!)》(1987)’等文件裏的信念?那麼你如何能了解‘Constitutional Republic’與‘Spirit of Liberty’呢?”
