Beliefs are mainly "religious beliefs", "political beliefs" and so on. Religious beliefs, such as ** religion, Buddhism, Islam, Taoism and so on.
Cults, terrorism, extremism, etc., also fall under the category of "faith."
"Political beliefs" means Marxism, all kinds of terrorism, extremism, national separatism, and so on.
"Origin", mainly "class origin", "family origin", "nation-state regional origin" and so on.
class", that is, the working class, the bourgeoisie, the peasant class, the petty bourgeoisie, the ** class, and so on. "Family origin" is, of course, "workers' and peasants' families," "families," "wealthy merchant families," "intellectual families," and so on. "Origin" also includes the "nation, country, geographical region" to which it belongs, and so on.
Whether it is religious belief or political belief, there is no absolute correlation with the "origin" of the believer.
Regardless of their "origin", they are likely to believe in various "religions", not that "workers" are sure to believe in Buddhism, or wealthy people are sure to believe in Jesus. Or, the children of cadre families must believe in Islam, and the children of peasant families must believe in cults. This is not absolute.
political beliefs", the same goes;Regardless of the content of a political belief, "people" of different classes, family backgrounds, various nationalities, and various places may "believe".
In the past, there was a time when some people thought: "The working class must believe in Marxism." That's too absolute.
Workers do not necessarily believe in Marxism, whether in history or in the present, if we observe and contact the "working class", we will know that workers do not necessarily believe in Marxism-Leninism.
Capitalists, on the contrary, some people are interested in Marxism;Like "Mohr", Mohr was a "big boss" who built businesses but was committed to the communist movement, and also established many communist communities, and was a pioneer of Marxism.
Marx was an intellectual, not a worker, and his father was a lawyer and not a worker's family. But Marx founded "Marxism".
Engels, himself a "capitalist" and a "wealthy businessman" from a family, founded Marxism with Marx.
Lenin was not a worker, he was a college student, although his grandfather was a serf, but his father worked hard and was the "director of national education" and belonged to the **, and Lenin's mother was a primary school teacher.
**, not a worker, his father was a "kulak", but *** was a "Marxist".
These circumstances show that Marxist belief has no absolute relationship with class and family origin. Workers and workers from their families do not necessarily believe in Marxism-Leninism;Born in a capitalist and landlord family, it is possible to believe in Marxism.
First of all, this society, and the "people" in the society, are divided into "all walks of life", not factory assembly line products, not exactly the same.
Divided by "class", divided into various classes;In terms of "faith", this person is this faith and that person is that faith;There are also ethnic divisions, national divisions, geographical divisions, gender divisions, age divisions, educational divisions, skin color divisions, and so on.
And the fact is: "A class has a class of isms, and different groups of a class have their own isms."
Therefore, almost every class, faction, and group has its own doctrine, banner, and belief as its own "banner."
However, in the final analysis, these "flags" belong to "thoughts, consciousness, and concepts." In this case, people's thoughts and thinking, like a stream of "flowing water," are "fluid" and not fixed. Therefore, although a certain "faith" is the recognized banner of one's own class and one's own group, in terms of one's own thinking and concept, one may not recognize and accept that "belief or banner", but will believe in the beliefs and banners of other classes and groups.
For example, Marxism is based on the doctrine of the emancipation of the working class, and it is a cry and cry for the workers and peasants. From the point of view of the vital interests of the working class, the workers will approve of the belief in Marxism;However, individual workers do not necessarily believe in Marxism.
There are two reasons for this: First, since the belief is from the perspective of "interests", it is entirely possible for capitalists to betray the cause and interests of the working class if they give workers a little "benefit". For example, the "thieves" at the time of the strike, perhaps they are related to the capitalists, or perhaps the capitalists have given monetary benefits, and individual workers stand on the side of the bourgeoisie. 2. Personal preference and ideological understanding;Although his class belongs to the "working class", his ideology, values, and outlook on life are "bourgeois", and his usual life style and way of thinking are completely influenced by the bourgeoisie. There are not a few such people;Therefore, it is impossible for such workers to believe in Marxism-Leninism.
This is the case with Marxism, and the same is true for the believers and situations of other ideologies, religions, and isms. Generally speaking, it is not "absolute", and it is said that this "class" or "nation" must believe in this "ism" or "religion".
Beliefs are often determined from two aspects: "interests" and "subjective preferences".
"Interests" means that this "belief" and its views are in line with one's own "interests", so belief.
"Subjective preference" means that you recognize and love this "faith" from your personal point of view, so you believe.
Therefore, whether it is Marxism, other doctrines, or religions, when accepting, accepting, appraising, and identifying "believers," they cannot be determined entirely by the theory of "class" or any other external "hard criteria." Rather, from the perspective of its "subjective thinking", it is necessary to examine whether its "belief position" is resolute and whether it is anti-risk, anti-twist and turn, and anti-**.
