As for meanness and religion, they refer to two bad attitudes and academic attitudes. Confucius said, "Those who make it as beautiful as the talents of the Duke of Zhou are arrogant and stingy, and the rest are not enough."
Mean, ordinary people are easy to be stingy with money, and those in power are easy to be stingy with things. For the sake of the country's heavy weapon, for the sake of the national dry city taxis, the values cultivated are out of touch with the despicable heart of "stingy". In front of the national economy and people's livelihood, we will never be ignorant enough to "open our hands". Goodcloud: "Wealth gathers but people disperse, and wealth disperses and people gather". If a person is stingy, there will be no real friends and confidants in dealing with people, and there will certainly be no great merits in dealing with people.
As for religion, it means "the party" and "the party opposes differences". For personal benefit, they form a group to attack or exclude dissidents. Anyone who conforms to his will is praised, and anyone who goes against his will, whether right or wrong, is attacked and slandered. Such people are known as "scholars", thieves of the country and traitors of the people. It is absolutely impossible for students. The party is still black, as the old saying goes. Therefore, Confucius warned that "a gentleman is not a party."
