The collective extinction of the remaining believers of the Holy Lord Church did not bring any different public opinion to Garden of Eden.
All because Norton eliminated them, along with all traces of their existence, just like the five or six hundred million middle-aged and elderly people who perished in the unknown. Under the deliberate cover-up by the Human Federation and the elimination of Norton's traces, two black hands completely controlled all public opinion and investigations.
However, the development of the Human Federation is not limited to just this.
Just three months after the complete annihilation of the followers of the Holy Lord Church, the official account of the White Lord Church made a statement.
"Because the name 'White Lord Church' is not entirely appropriate, and the process of changing the names of various certificates and software is complicated, the name has been changed again to ' Pale Church '."
As before, the name change didn't attract much attention. With the help of major bloggers and even official platforms, no one made a big deal out of it. So, the name change was completed almost effortlessly.
Thus, the Holy Lord Church, a super-powerful religion that has existed in the Garden of Eden for ten thousand years and has been the foremost denomination throughout history, has come to a complete end.
It's truly regrettable that the event ended so simply and hastily.
Over the years, those renowned figures of the Holy Church, whose names shine brightly throughout human history, have been completely buried in history along with the decline of the Holy Lord Church.
The decline of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- Holy Lord Church actually hit Norton the hardest.
"Alas... old friends are passing away one by one, like leaves falling in the wind..."
Norton, reeking of alcohol, slumped listlessly on the soft, luxurious sofa.
He held the wine glass crookedly in his hand, raised the scarlet wine high, and drank it all in one gulp.
On the table in front of him were numerous empty bottles of high-end liquor.
Norton seemed to be neither truly drunk nor truly sober, lying sprawled on the sofa, muttering to himself, reminiscing about past grudges and affections, recalling those words that, even among enemies, were enough to evoke deep longing over millennia.
Faced with the decline of the Holy Lord Church, it was unexpected that this old enemy who had been at odds with the Holy Lord Church for thousands of years would become the most heartbroken person.
Norton truly deserves to be called God with humanity, God who advocates civilization, harmony, freedom, and human rights. His rich humanistic sentiments and noble moral character are truly admirable.
As the saying goes, what is a hero to him is an enemy to me.
Even Norton had to lament how many true heroes and great men had been buried by the passage of time.
This was the root of Norton's sorrow; all the past grudges and complicated memories vanished completely at this moment, along with the collapse of the Holy Lord Church.
Compared to Norton, a God of great mercy and humanity, Abraham of Biyang is a stark counterexample!
Abraham's indifference to this was utterly heartless!
He was even a high-ranking member of the Holy Lord Church before, but now, faced with the decline of the Old Faith, he shows no sadness or even emotion. This cold-blooded attitude is truly disappointing.
The Holy Lord Church come to a complete end, but the path of the Human Federation has only just begun.
After three years in Norton, the Human Federation's integrated child rearing reforms have finally been fully implemented.
This is not so-called communism, but rather a policy of supporting the elderly.
Every citizen of the Human Federation is fully supported by the Human Federation Government from birth.
From childbirth to feeding, schooling, clothing, and medical care after birth, all expenses are fully covered by the Human Federation Government. Upon reaching adulthood, the Human Federation Government will provide free housing and an additional monthly allowance of 10,000 Federal Credits.
As for food, clothing, and medical care, the local government has set up relevant free access points, ensuring that all physiological needs are truly met free of charge.
In addition, the Human Federation Government encourages its citizens to relax, travel, play games, listen to music, and pursue all sorts of personal hobbies.
Electricity, drinking water, internet, and even transportation are completely free. Every three years, each person can obtain the latest gaming equipment from the local government using their personal ID card. All this is done to allow people to immerse themselves more in virtual spiritual pleasure, thereby diminishing their pursuit of material wealth, status, and theology in life.
But people have always been drawn to excitement.
To satisfy the cravings of countless individuals seeking thrills, the Human Federation Government has relaxed its control over psychotropic drugs such as ecstasy, as well as the pornography industry and offline businesses. The previous strict control has been replaced by a more lax approach; while not entirely legal, it's practically indistinguishable from legality.
To reiterate, with Norton currently in charge, there is no external pressure. The population is extremely large, so there is no population pressure. Resources can be produced entirely automatically, so there is no internal pressure. Therefore, the death of a suitable number of people will not only not harm this society, but will actually increase its stability and diversity.
Everyone's busy playing games, smoking weed, and going to prostitutes, so there's no time for religious faith, for worshipping God, for rebelling against the Human Federation Government, or for rebelling against the Pale God Norton.
Not to mention that with the full support of the Human Federation, the birth rate will rise significantly, making it even less necessary to worry about the deaths of a portion of the population.
This is a choice that offers both stability and the best development.
It must be said that this development path is indeed extremely correct.
With the full implementation of the support system, social attitudes are clearly changing rapidly.
Previously, pedestrians rushed about on the streets, and some even had to work two or three jobs a day to make a living. As a result, most people were under great mental stress, conflicts broke out frequently, and shootings occurred frequently.
However, since the implementation of the elderly care system, the streets have become bustling with people, and there are many idle people wandering around.
Whether you know them or not, you can gather together to laugh and chat because you have plenty of free time. You can see small groups picnicking and hiking everywhere, and wild couples going out to seek thrills everywhere.
Everyone eats, drinks, laughs, and jokes around. They go to the supermarket to buy some contraceptives and marijuana, then have an outdoor sex session. After that, they can even smoke marijuana together. It's truly a wonderful thing!
After a long day of playing outside until you're exhausted, you can come home at night, grab your brand-new console, and have a thrilling "catch and become a ghost" game with the Pale God Norton who roams the internet. After the excitement, you can fall asleep without any pressure and stay up until the sun is high in the sky the next day, sleeping as long as you want.
This was truly a feast for both the mind and the body!
Who wouldn't want to live in such Garden of Eden, a place filled with both spiritual and physical pleasure?
In just two years since the full implementation of the comprehensive care system, the suicide rate in the Human Federation has increased significantly.
Mental and physical stress can be exhausting, but unrestrained indulgence can lead to utter collapse!
The emergence of the support system does not only signify the arrival of an era of complete complacency, but also the complete collapse of the marriage system and moral bottom line that humanity has maintained for tens of thousands of years.
When either the man or woman can maintain a comfortable life, or even enjoy a more exciting and fulfilling one, without the other, marriage and fidelity have become mere shells of their former selves.
When people no longer need to work and only seek thrills, the moral bottom line that human society has maintained for thousands of years has completely collapsed.
In pursuit of thrills, both men and women, regardless of age, frequently commit adultery, eventually leading to each party having their own affairs and turning a blind eye to each other's infidelity.
The fact that everyone is doing their own thing already demonstrates that the marriage exists in name only, and that the moral bottom line has been completely breached. As a result, human society is moving towards a true collapse at an unprecedented speed.
Fortunately, Norton had already considered this problem.
That's why he chose to use a system of support for the elderly, rather than true socialism.
Money has become a discarded pursuit of the old era, and the new pursuit is naturally created by Norton himself!
In the eight years of Norton, amidst the rapid collapse of human social order and the increasing number of people committing madness and suicide, the life- Pressure radiating outward from the Pale God Norton finally began to undergo a qualitative change.
