Chapter 1045

There is no doubt about this historical transition period.

But the problem is——

"What does the second historical transition period have to do with Zoroastrianism?"

Bai Yasha asked 0 .....

"Mithras' title of bull killer is related to the fact that he initiated the first historical transition period and pushed the era from the Taurus era to the Aries era."

"But if, as you said, Mithras also pushed the world from the Aries era to the Pisces era, wouldn't he have left traces?"

"Moreover, the main beneficiary of the Pisces era is Christianity. Mithras would not be so kind as to give the entire two thousand years of human history to Christianity, right?"

Bai Yasha's questioning is normal.

Let's not talk about how much power Mithras still has left after the demise of Zoroastrianism.

Even if we take a step back and say that the Pisces era may really have been promoted by Mithras.

But why would he leave the next era to Christianity?

After spending so much effort, the beneficiary is someone else's name?

It feels strange no matter how you look at it.

Hearing Bai Yasha's question, Emperor Shitian did not give an immediate answer, but asked back.

"When did the record of Mithra killing the bull happen?"

Hearing this question, Bai Yasha pondered for a while.

As a star spirit of the sun, she is very familiar with the sun god and the movement of stars, but she doesn't know much about the subtle parts of human history.

However, in order to analyze Su Mo's spirit, she has made up for her homework these days.

So she soon thought of the answer.

"That was the content recorded in the Mithraic worship discovered in the eastern Mediterranean in the first century BC."

The Mithraic ruins mentioned by Emperor Shitian before refer to the ruins of Mithraism in 3.1 mentioned by Bai Yasha.

At this point, Bai Yasha suddenly widened his eyes.

Finally realized something.

"Wait! Mithraism was after the destruction of Zoroastrianism?!"

In the first century BC, the Persian Empire, which believed in Zoroastrianism, had already been destroyed for hundreds of years!

In the box garden world at the corresponding time point, the Zoroastrian gods had already been destroyed!

According to normal calculations, after the decline of Zoroastrianism, Mithra should not have the ability to trigger a historical transition period.

After all, the influence of Zoroastrianism is no longer enough.

However, what Bai Yasha did not expect was.

Zoroastrianism was indeed destroyed.

But Mithraism rose again!

According to the time calculation, the time point of Mithra's rise was around the AD, which was a time point of a large historical transition period of Crusaderism.

This is by no means a coincidence! .

987 The driving force behind the Crusader era

"That's right."

Emperor Shitian nodded.

"That era was the era when the Zoroastrian gods had already collapsed."

"Since Alexander the Great's expedition to the east and the destruction of the Persian Empire, Zoroastrianism has fallen apart."

"The Hellenistic thought brought by Alexander the Great swept across the Middle East, and Persian culture was suppressed to a deep trough."

Military failures caused cultural disadvantages.

This was an era when Persian culture was suppressed, and Eastern and Western civilizations were exchanged here.

Later generations of the West called it the Hellenistic era to praise it, but it is obvious that it was said from their own standpoint.

The Persians at that time would definitely not think this was a good thing.

"However, at that time, a sect survived."

"That was the most primitive and ancient belief of the Persian Empire, and it did not disappear after the unification of Zoroastrianism."

"In the Hellenistic era, this belief integrated part of the belief of Helios, the sun god of Greek mythology, and was later worshiped by the Romans, and even became the state religion of the Roman Empire for a time."

Even though the group of gods he created with his own hands was completely destroyed, Mithra did not give up.

Instead, he developed his own sect with his own strength, and even developed it to a degree that could affect the historical transition period.

"The name of this religion is Mithraism!"

After listening to Emperor Shi Tian's words.

Bai Yasha touched his head and felt that he might need to make up for his human history.

However, although he was not familiar with the history of Mithraism.

But Bai Yasha still knew about the Roman Empire.

After all, discussing the influence of modern Europe, Rome is indispensable.

In Europe, the status of the Roman Empire is comparable to that of the Qin and Han dynasties in the East. At that time, it was the highest empire that countless people yearned for, and it was also a rare period of great unification in this turbulent continent of Europe.

Since Mithraism once became the state religion of the Roman Empire.

Then this religion does have the opportunity to be spread and promoted throughout the ruling area of ​​the Roman Empire, replacing the position of today's Crusade.

However, everyone knows that the religion that dominates Europe today is Crusade, not Mithraism.

"So, isn't Mithraism a failure?"

Bai Yasha asked curiously.

In any case, Mithraism has not succeeded in achieving the same influence as Crusade.

Since Bai Yasha doesn't know much about this religion, she only knows some of its content because of the title of the Bull Killer.

However, she can be sure that this religion does not exist in later generations.

In other words, in this large historical transition period around BC, Mithraism was directly destroyed.

"How can a destroyed religion usher in the Pisces era?"

Hearing Bai Yasha's words, Emperor Shitian asked directly.

"Why can't a destroyed religion usher in a new era?"

"You know, precession is the force that drives the new era, not the force that rules the new era!"

Hearing this, Bai Yasha widened his eyes and finally discovered his blind spot.

Driving the new era has nothing to do with ruling the new era.

"You mean to say that Mithraism caused a historical transition period and pushed Christianity to the position of ruler of the Pisces era. The prosperity of Christianity today is actually the work of Mithra?"

The prosperity of Christianity is well known in today's box garden.

This is the largest religion outside the box garden, and the faith they have obtained even occupies more than half of all the gods.

Even if the two archangels of Christianity were conquered by Su Mo, which made Christianity lose face.

But no group of gods would underestimate the foundation of Christianity.

After all, the innate gods and Buddhas can be resurrected by faith.

And what Christianity lacks most is not faith.

And such a huge group of gods, even a huge group of gods with double-digit full-power domains as leaders.

At the beginning of its rise, it was actually driven by Mithraism?

As if seeing an invisible big hand interfering with the general trend of the box garden gods, Bai Yasha couldn't help but feel horrified.

Even if it is a spirit of ancient gods, is it really possible to do this?

Emperor Shi Tian didn't know what Bai Yasha was thinking.

After hearing that she understood what he meant, Emperor Shi Tian nodded.

"That's right, just as Lord Mithra slaughtered Taurus and opened the Aries era, it was actually the era of Zoroastrianism, or the era of Lord Ahura."

"Lord Mithra never promoted the change of the times for the sake of ruling, which can be seen from his marginalized position in Zoroastrianism."

"Therefore, it is not impossible for him to push the era to the Pisces era and hand over the ruling power of this era to the Cross."

As a historical transition period around BC.

The only Mithraism that was qualified to compete with the Cross for status and even once had a great advantage.

Whether it became the ruler of the Pisces era itself.

Or let the Cross become the ruler of the Pisces era, it is actually not important.

What is important is that Mithraism triggered a conflict of faith among polytheists, making the advantages of monotheism more obvious, and was the driving force behind the progress of the times.

"In the history of mankind today, Mithraism was indeed destroyed by the blow of the cross."

"But if it is regarded as a stimulus to the cultivation of Christianity in the form of an opponent, it can also explain the role of Mithraism."

In fact, before the fourth century AD, Christianity was a religion with very scattered beliefs and different beliefs. It was basically a religion with no advantages.

Their only feature was that they would integrate festivals of other sects to attract believers.

If it were not for Constantinople the Great abandoning the belief of Mithraism and announcing his joining Christianity.

And forcibly integrating Christianity and unifying the beliefs of various sects of Christianity with the idea of ​​the Trinity.

I am afraid that the world's largest religion would not exist today.

It can be said that this key node is the biggest reason why Christianity has been able to develop to its current level.

Even if we don't look at the mysterious conversion of Constantinople the Great.

Simply looking at the development of Christianity, we can also see the guiding role played by Mithraism.

Moreover, more importantly,

"The current leader of Christianity, the two-digit lord's spiritual power... has an unclear relationship with Lord Mithra, but this kind of taboo is not discussed for the time being."

If the other party's name is mentioned, the other party will definitely feel it.

In addition, what he said is such a forbidden content

Emperor Shitian is not so brave to provoke the son of Christianity, so he stopped at the point and did not dare to talk about it in depth.

988 The Mithra God of this era is Su Mo

Hearing Emperor Shitian mention this, Bai Yasha's heart shuddered.

Before, Su Mo took off the underwear of Christianity in front of the gods.

Reorganized the inheritance of Christmas and used [Christmas Emperor] as a code name.

It seems that he just lost face for Christianity.

The fact that Christmas was stolen was made public.

But in fact, thinking deeply, it is far more than that.

After all, since Christmas was stolen, will other festivals also be stolen?

If other festivals are stolen, are myths also problematic?

As we all know, the Christian canon [Bible] is divided into the [New Testament] and the [Old Testament].

Because the two canons are different, the specific gods they worship are also different.

The Judaism that worships the [Old Testament] believes in the Almighty Lord, while other factions that worship the [New Testament] believe in the Son of God.
