许多年前，还在一个政府部门作技术职员的时候，特别讨厌送来的假数据，因为我当时依赖数据校正自己的理论分析，提供给他人。但是，每当事后发现有数据问题时，要不要公开改正，都很纠结。今天是愚人节，不妨斗胆美言真假。若说的不对，就当是笑话吧。
Many years ago, when I was a technical clerk in a government department, I especially hated the fake data sent, because I relied on the data to correct my theoretical analysis and provide it to others. However, whenever a data problem is discovered afterwards, it is very difficult for me to decide if I should make corrections publicly. Today is Fool's Day, so don't be afraid to tell the truth. If it's wrong, please treat it as a joke.
圣经中记载主耶稣基督在世时，传讲从天父听来的福音信息。有位中年朋友求真心切，跟一位高手学听天外之音。 经过许多天的刻苦己心，少吃少睡，每天定时定点几小时专注地绷紧神经，终于能在无人的暗室里清晰地听到奇妙的话语。之后许多天，都能得到详细的教诲，比如该买哪种营养品，该起什么名字，怎样才能增加收入、减少支出。她在数百观众前作见证时坦言，刚开始一年顺服那声音时做了很多傻事。但是后来，她背诵圣经相关金句，用圣经来判断那声音是好天使的，还是坏天使的。一年后，高手首肯她已出师。
The Bible records that when the Lord Jesus Christ was on earth, he preached the gospel message heard from the Father. A middle-aged friend was so eager to seek truth that he tried to learn to listen to voices from heaven with an Expert. After many days of hard work, eating less and sleeping less, and tensing up his nerves for several hours every day, he could finally hear the wonderful Voices clearly in the dark room with no one else. During many days afterwards, he could get detailed instructions from the Voice, such as which nutritional supplements to buy, what to name, and how to increase income and reduce expenses. In her testimony in front of hundreds of audiences, she confessed that she did a lot of stupid things in the first year of obeying that Voice. But later, she recited relevant golden verses from the Bible and used the Bible to judge whether the voice was of a good angel or a bad angel. A year later, the Expert approved her to graduate from the apprenticeship training.
笔者不忍心指责那位无知地害人得精神分裂的‘高手’。但是，即使在残酷的病态中，与其他患者相比，圣经能使人得自由，确是可歌可颂的。圣经中的上帝慈爱、全能，配得也值得敬拜。人生的许多选择决定于您心目中的终极支配者是谁。如果支配者是逃不过生老病死的自己，或是你恨不得它早死的上司，是企图替代上帝的堕落天使,即魔鬼，或是上帝造的日月星宿，又或是人造的雕像，那么患者是可能象张晓宁那样去残杀严厉地教育她说真话却帮不了她实现虚妄梦想的李进进律师的（见纽约时报2022年3月16号相关报道：https://cn.nytimes.com/usa/20220316/jim-li-stabbing-death/）！
The author cannot bear to accuse the 'Expert' who caused schizophrenia of the apprentice due to the lack of knowledge. But even in the midst of cruel morbidity, it is laudable that the Bible can set the man-made patient free compared with other patients. The God of the Bible is merciful and almighty, entitled and worthy of worship. Many choices in life depend on who is the ultimate ruler in your mind. If the ruler is the self who cannot escape birth, old age, sickness and death, or the boss you may wish him to die early, or the fallen angel who tries to replace God, the devil, or the sun, moon, stars created by God, or man-made statues, then the patient may be like Zhang Xiaoning, who killed lawyer Li Jinjin, who sternly tried to educate her to tell the truth but couldn't help her realize her delusive dreams (see related report in The New York Times on March 16, 2022: https://cn.nytimes.com/usa/20220316/jim-li-stabbing-death/)!
在年轻时，妻子和我闹矛盾，曾经在我看书时将一把大菜刀架到我的脖子后。谁也没有料到，那次的恐怖竟然成为催化剂，我们不久后一起成为基督徒。几十年后的今天，我早已把那生死攸关的场面当作笑谈。据妻子回忆，她当时拿刀的手象被人抓住，砍不下去。笔者认为那是上帝驱赶走了魔鬼，救了我。实在是感谢上帝在我们无助时，重生了我们的灵魂，存留了我们的肉体生命。 亲爱的读者，如果您正处在痛苦患难中，祈愿天父上帝的圣爱和主耶稣基督奇妙的拯救临到您。
When we were young, my wife and I had a conflict. She once put a large kitchen knife behind my neck while I was reading a book. No one expected that the horror of that time would become a catalyst, and we would become Christians together soon. Decades later, today, I have already regarded that risky life-and-death scene as a joke. According to my wife's recollection, her hand holding the knife seemed to be caught by someone and couldn't cut down. The writer believes that it was God who drove away the devil and saved me. I really thank God for reborn our souls and preserving our physical life when we were helpless. Dear reader, if you are in pain and tribulation, may the holy love of God the Father and the wonderful salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ come to you.
