Nine Commentaries

Part 4c

In Part 4b, we heard that in ancient China moral codes expected that “Even bandits should follow the Way as well.” The CCP has gone so far as to abandon even minimal moral standards. Its evilness has reached well beyond the universal law of mutual generation and mutual inhibition. The CCP’s unrestrained arrogance opposes nature and confounds the criteria for good and evil, thus overturning the law of the universe.

The CCP has brought about drastic ecological deterioration in China by the indiscriminate cutting of trees, leveling of rivers and the filling of lakes. As a result, the Hai and Yellow rivers have dried up. The Yangtze and Huai rivers are deeply polluted. Grasslands have disappeared, and sandstorms now reach the central plains. The CCP has spent hundreds of billions of dollars on projects to change the natural ecosystems, all in keeping with CCP policies which promote “battling with heaven and fighting with the earth.”

Part 4c: All nations have historically believed in God. Precisely because of belief in God and understanding the causal relationship of Good and Evil, people would restrain themselves and maintain the moral standard of a society. All orthodox religions throughout history have taught that happiness comes from having faith, being compassionate, cherishing one’s blessings, and returning kindnesses. In contrast, communism has advocated atheism and has taught that there is no causal relationship between doing good and doing evil. Thus, people do not need to abide by the laws or behave themselves, and violence and trickery are encouraged.
