Chapter 2302
"What is even more powerful is that the calendar that they came up with is exactly the same as the ones calcted by modern science now. The error
is so minimal that there is only a one-day discrepancy in the calendar in every five thousand years. Do you think that this is also a feudal superstition,
then?" 3
Sophie suddenly did not know how to refute her mother’s statement. So, she could only make a strong statement as she said, “There is still no actual
basis for this kind of thing. Therefore, I will not believe in it anyway!" 3
Helen sighed at this time before she continued speaking in a serious tone, "When my generation was younger, we had a rtively objective
understanding o f the Eastern and Western culture. We would never blindly believe that the West was better or the East was better. Instead, we would
lock at the problem from an objective and dialectical perspective.
However, the Western culture has already takenplete control over your generation, which was born after the ''90s or the ‘00s!"
"You believe in science and the inte, but you refuse to believe in the essence that your ancestors have left behind for you thousands of years ago.
You have gradually begun to ssify the set of beliefs that
your ancestors have left behind for you as old feudal superstitions. This is an embodiment of ignorance in itself!”
Sophie retorted with some dissatisfaction, "ording to our old ancestors, everything has a so-called fate? Then, do you mean to say that everything
that I eat and everywhere I go today has already been destined for a long time?”
Helen replied seriously, "You think that everything in this world is not fated and that you have control over your own fate. However, have you ever
thought about how a small gravel and therge universe are all using their own set of rules to continue operating? The more you observe the
operations in this world, the more you will discover that fate is unchangeable!" 2
Sophie immediately asked, "Mom, in that case, can you tell me what is the fate of a gravel? It can stay in the desert, be a member of thousands
of gravels, sink into the river, or even be carried out to the sea through the river. It is even likely that it would be made into a part of a piece of ss by
humans before being embedded into a piece of concrete. Do you truly think that the fact of every single gravel had already been nned out in
advance?" 2
Helen shook her head and said, "I’ve already said that fate should be viewed from a macro perspective. You should not consider it from a micro
perspective.”
"If you view it from a micro perspective, you will feel that every gravel is very small and not worth
mentioning at all. There are so many gravels in this world. So, it would simply be impossible to n out a different destiny and fate for each gravel.” 5
"But do you know haw many stars are there, which are like the sun in the universe?”
Sophie had a nk look on her face. 3
Helen replied seriously, "Sophie, if
you look at it from a microscopic
point of view-you will always feel
that the gravel is too small to even’~
be worthynentioning at all. However,
if youdgok at it from a macroscopic
pointof view, you will realizethat
earth is just like a little gravel in the
eritire universe. In realitysét might not
even beparable to a tiny little
gravel.” 2
As she spoke, Helen said, "Don''t young people enjoy talking about science the most? Then, I can tell you that there are about two trillion gxies
within the observable range and the educated spection range in the universe. Did you hear me clearly? It''s two trillions!" s
"Furthermore, there are at least
hundreds of bitions or even trillions
of stars in each gxy. The sun is .
just one eMthe hundreds of billions:
of stars frat exist in the Milky Way.
In theentire gxy, the sun is.$0
ordinary that it cannot possibly be
extraordinary. In the entire-tiniverse,
the sun cannot even bepared t
0 a single gravel on earth." Content

"The stars in the universe, which are
just like the sun, adds up to more
than the nusiber of gravels on this
earth. However, you feel that there is
too muckrgravel, and a smal gravel
is notwworth having any fate atall,
Thervet me ask you something. If a
staf that I is a hundred timesrger
than the earth, is just a casmic
gravel in the universe, would it be
worthy of a fate, then?” Content

Helen''s words left Sophie dumbfounded, and she could not say anything at all. 5
She had never used this kind of perspective to try and understand the world before. At this time, she simply tried to think about the entire macro
universe in her mind, and she suddenly felt that she was extremely insignificant and ignorant. 2
If the sun was just a gravel in the entire universe, the earth could only be considered as cosmic dust.
If human beings were so small that they needed to live in cosmic dust, what would humans be worth, then? 2N?velDrama.Org ? content.
How much of the so-called science that humans hade up with in this cosmic dust that they were living in could actually represent everything in
the world or universe, then? 1
