"But wasn't it you who just used the word 'commoner'? I merely delved deeper into what you just said."
Old John shook his head.
As he spoke, he snorted:
"Perhaps... this is the hypocrisy of the Eternal Church."
"Although it preaches in its doctrines that everyone is equal before the True God, and that with devout faith, one can ascend to the Divine Country after death and attain happiness and peace, in reality, it tells believers not to resist, to learn to endure, to submit to the rule of nobility..."
"But if you can't even grasp reality, how can you talk about after death?"
"From this perspective, the Eternal Church is merely a tool for aiding the tyrant, helping the nobles oppress the people, and consolidating the rule of a decaying empire."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers were immediately taken aback.
Everyone looked at Old John with eyes full of shock and horror, never expecting him to dare to mock the Eternal Church like this.
