譯文:
本文將對毛澤東和耶穌基督作一些比較。當然,本著理性思維,所有的比較都必須客觀公正,符合歷史事實。總的來說,在一些領域,毛澤東比不上耶穌,但在另一些領域,毛澤東略勝耶穌一籌。
我們先來探討那些毛澤東不如耶穌的領域。
首先,毛澤東的著作不如耶穌基督的受歡迎。《新約》的刊印量要遠遠超過《毛選》的刊印量。當然,《新約》的問世遠早于《毛選》。另一個原因是,毛澤東的著作較為理論化、哲學化,而《新約》喜歡講故事,還是那種“以人為本”的故事:情節感人、語言優美。哪怕大字不識一個的人也愛聽這種故事。所以,在這種意義上,《新約》得以擁有遠超《毛選》的受眾。
其次,耶穌基督出身比毛澤東更富裕。耶穌出生在一個富裕的地主階級家庭,他的母親甚至還是處女。耶穌從來不用擔心生計問題。相較而言,毛澤東的家庭條件要差許多:那是個農民家庭,全家人常因生活難以維系而發愁。
接下來,我們來討論那些毛澤東和耶穌難分伯仲的領域。
首先,他們兩個都提高了群眾的總體健康水平。耶穌是個好醫生,他有著妙手回春的本領,甚至能夠起死回生。毛澤東動員群眾改善公共衛生,在新中國建立的寥寥幾年內就消滅了霍亂、天花等疾病。在他的領導下,中國在世界上首次人工合成胰島素,并引入許多現代化醫療器械和醫療方法,他還發動了“赤腳醫生”運動,把大眾醫療知識傳播到缺乏醫療設備的落后村莊去。
即使耶穌包治百病,他只能醫治同他見過面的人,而耶穌當然是個大忙人,所以他見不到多少人。而毛澤東的動員改善了中國6億人民的健康狀況。但鑒于毛澤東本人并不是醫生,也沒有起死回生的本事,我們姑且認為,在醫療方面,毛澤東和耶穌平分秋色。
其次,他們兩個都提倡“愛人”。耶穌說過,要愛你的仇敵,就像愛你的朋友一樣。毛澤東說過,我們必須愛我們的階級弟兄,對待同志要像春天般溫暖,對待敵人要像嚴冬一樣無情。我本人不是很理解為什么耶穌基督說我們要愛我們的仇敵,如果你是我的仇敵,我當然希望你倒大霉。但不管怎么說,毛澤東和耶穌在這方面是相平的。
最后,讓我們討論那些毛澤東勝過耶穌基督的領域。
首先,毛澤東使中華民族站了起來,變得強大。1949年之前,中國任由列強擺布。1840年,幾千名英國士兵就把清王朝打得屁滾尿流。1858年,是英法聯軍的幾千名士兵;1894年,是2萬名日本士兵;然后,是八國聯軍的幾萬名士兵;再接著,1931年,是日本帝國軍……
但在1949年之后,彭德懷迫使聯合國軍于1954年在朝韓邊境簽署停戰協定,帝國主義在東方架起幾門大炮,就可以征服一個國家、一個民族的歷史一去不復返了。在朝鮮,中國能與世界上最強大的軍事力量打成平手。美國人花了十幾年時間試圖擊敗越南,而在1979年,中國只用了兩周就打入越南境內3公里,還攻占了幾座越南城市……
而耶穌基督呢?猶太人數千年來受盡凌辱,四處漂泊。到1948年,他們才得以在一片名為以色列的土地上落腳。但時至今日,這片土地仍不安寧,仍是戰火紛飛……
其次,毛澤東為中國建立了一套完整的工、農、技、教體系。在毛澤東時代,中國成功研發制造了核彈、氫彈、洲際導彈、核潛艇……但在耶穌率領下,猶太人什么也沒創造出來,仍舊生活在原始社會或奴隸社會。更甚,耶穌基督的思想嚴重阻礙了科學進步。例如,許多像伽利略、布魯諾這樣智慧的科學家因為忤逆耶穌的教義而被處死。中世紀是整個歐洲文明史上最黑暗的時期。
第三,毛澤東使中華民族人口倍增、繁榮興旺。毛澤東掌權之初,中國只有5億人口,到1980年人口普查,中國人口已經達到10億。在生物學中,某種細菌種群密度的增長是衡量這種細菌生存環境和健康狀況的重要指標。迅猛的增長,說明這種細菌生活在良好適宜的環境中。在經濟學中,有個著名的術語叫做“毛澤東式跳躍”,用來指代某國人口的突然增長,是衡量該國國民生活水平大幅度提高的指標。我敢肯定,幾年前有位法國經濟學家因提出“毛澤東式跳躍”獲得諾貝爾經濟學獎。
耶穌基督做過什么事使猶太民族人口增多嗎?沒有。在這個方面,毛澤東完勝耶穌。
最后,耶穌是個自大狂,行事頗具貴族風格。他老是提及他父親的名號,要是有人反對他,他就自稱是上帝的兒子,凡違逆他和他父親意志的,必受懲罰……他還強迫別人去信仰他,不允許任何任何人懷疑他或質疑他的觀點,他總是強調他是最偉大的,無人能比,他是惟一知曉真理的人,等等。這樣的態度是非常惡劣的,只有那些驕奢的富家子弟才會有這種態度。
至于毛澤東,則要謙虛的多。他常說自己為中國做的還不夠,常說自己也會犯錯誤。他常在黨的內部會議上作自我檢討,因為覺得自己在“大躍進”中犯了錯誤,他甚至主動辭職。后來,他要求黨把他犯過的錯誤一一列入黨的官方文件,因為他不想被當作“神”銘記。今天,當你翻閱中國共產黨官方文件對毛澤東的描述時,你會發現,許多地方都提及毛澤東犯過的錯誤。
總而言之,我認為毛澤東要比耶穌基督更偉大。我不理解為什么許多基督的追隨者想讓整個人類都去崇拜耶穌,我認為耶穌充其量不過是個部落首領。我認為,比起耶穌,我們更有理由崇拜毛澤東。當然,我不提倡崇拜任何人,每個人都是平等的,都是血肉之軀,沒有什么高下之分。
以下為英文原文:
This post will make a comparison between Mao Zedong and Jesus Christ. Of course, from an engineering mindset, any comparison must be objective and based on historical data. There are some areas where Mao Zedong is not as great as Jesus, and some areas where Mao Zedong is greater than Jesus.
Let's first discuss the areas where Mao Zedong is not as great.
First, Mao Zedong's writings are not as popular as Jesus Christ's. The published copies of the New Testament book is much much more than the copies of Mao Zedong's Collected Writings. But of course, the New Testament existed much longer than Mao Zedong's writings. Another reason is that Mao Zedong's books are very theoretical and philosophical. But the New Testament book is mostly about stories, and are very "humanity-major"-like stories: very touching, very beautiful words, etc. So even an uneducated people can enjoy those stories. So in this sense, the New Testament book can reach a bigger audience than Mao Zedong's books.
Second, Jesus Christ is from a wealthier family than Mao Zedong. Jesus's family is from a rich landowner class, and his mother is even a virgin. Jesus never had to worry about not having enough money to survive. In comparison, Mao Zedong's family is much worse: it's a farmer's family, and the entire family always worried about making a living.
Now, Let's talk about areas where they are both equal.
First, both men improved the general health of the population. Jesus was a good doctor, and can cure every disease with his hands, and can even bring back the dead from the grave. Mao Zedong mobilized the masses to improve public health, and eliminated diseases such as cholera and smallpox only several years after the founding of new China. Under his leadership, China successfully created the world's first artificial insulin, and introduced many modern medicine and treatment methods, and started the movement of "barefoot doctors" to spread general public medical knowlegde to backward villages that lacked modern medical equipment.
But, even though Jesus can cure anything, he can only cure those people he meets, and of course Jesus is a busy man, so he could not meet too many people... Mao Zedong's mobilization campaigns improved the health of the entire 0.6 billion Chinese population. But Mao Zedong himself is not a doctor, and cannot bring people from the dead. So, let's just say those two are equal.
Also, both men promoted loving others. Jesus said you should love your enemies just like you love your friends. Mao Zedong said, we must love our class friends, and must treat our friends like the warmth of spring, but treat our enemies like the wind of winter. I still don't understand why Jesus Christ says we must love our enemies, if you are my enemy, of course I want bad things to happen to you. But anyway, let's just say they are both equal in this respect.
Finally, let's talk about areas where Mao Zedong surpassed Jesus Christ.
First, Mao Zedong made Chinese nation rise and become stronger. Before 1949, every nation could push China around. In 1840, a few thousand British soldiers totally beat the crap out of the Qing Empire. In 1858, it's a few thousand British/French soldiers, In 1894, it's twenty thousand Japanese soldiers, then it's tens of thousands of soldiers from 8 Western countries, then it's the Japanese Emperial Army in 1931.....
But after 1949, Peng De Huai forced the UN forces to sign the ceasefire treaty on the Korean border in 1954, ending the history where emperial powers can set up a few cannons on the sea outside Shanghai and conquer China. In Korea, China was able to achieve a draw with the most militarily powerful country in the world. American spent 10+ years trying to defeat Vietnam, while it took China two weeks in 1979 to across 3 km's into Vietnam and occupy some Vietnamese cities....
What about Jesus Christ? The Jews have always been bullied and massacred everywhere. Only in 1948 did they get a land called Israel. But even today, there's no peace on that land, but instead all kinds of car bombings...
Second, Mao Zedong created for China a complete system of Industry, Farming, Technology and Education. During Mao Zedong's rule, China successfully researched and built Nuclear Bomb, Hydrogen Bomb, Intercontinental Missile, Nuclear Submarine... But under Jesus's rule, the Jewish created nothing, and still lived under a primitive/slave society. And also, the ideas of Jesus Christ severely hurt the progress of Science. For example, many bright scientists such as Galileo and Bruno were prosecuted and killed for violating Jesus Christ's thinking. The middle age in Europe is the darkest age in European civilization.
Third, Mao Zedong allowed the Chinese nation's population to multiply and prosper. When Mao Zedong first took power, China had 0.5 billion people. In 1980's census, China had 1.0 billion people. We know that in biology, the population growth of a type of bacteria is a strong indicator of that bacteria's environment and health. Stronger growth means that bacteria is living in a very healthy and favorable environment. In economics, there's a famous term called "Mao Zedong Jump" which is used to refer to a sudden growth in a nation's population, and is an indicator of a massive improvement in the living standards of that nation. I believe a few years ago a French economist won the Nobel Prize for creating the theory of "Mao Zedong Jump".
Did Jesus Christ do anything to increase the population of the Jews? No. So in this point, Mao Zedong totally surpassed Jesus.
Finally, Jesus is a very arrogant man, and often acts like he's an aristocrat. He often brings up his father's name, and if someone disagrees with him, he'll claim that his father is God, and anyone who disagrees with him or his father will be punished... And he also forces others to believe him, and does not allow any one to doubt or challenge his opinions, and often emphasizes that he's the greatest, and no one can compare with him, and he's the only one who knows the truth, etc etc etc. This is a very bad attitude and only spoiled rich people have this kind of attitude.
Mao Zedong, on the other hand, is much more modest. He often says that he has not done enough for China, and often says that it's possible that he would make mistakes. And he often made many self-criticisms during internal meetings of his Party, and even stepped down voluntarily when he thought he made some mistakes during the "Great Leap Forward". And later in life, he forced his own party to write that he made many mistakes in official party documents, as he does not want to be remembered as a "God". So today, if you read the official document on Mao Zedong from the Chinese Communist Party, you'll find many areas where it says Mao Zedong made many mistakes.
Overall, I think Mao Zedong is a greater man than Jesus Christ. I don't understand why many Jesus-believers want the entire human race to worship Jesus, I think Jesus is nothing but a tribal leader. I think there are more reasons to worship Mao Zedong than Jesus Christ. Of course I don't believe in worshipping anyone, I think everyone is equal and human.
