The following is a fictional scenario description, which is only used as an imagination and narrative exercise, and does not represent any real proposition or value recognition: Deep in a remote valley, there is a community that is almost forgotten by the outside world - people call it the "Sacred Realm". This community is composed of a group of people who believe in ancient scriptures. They firmly believe that all the laws of life come from divine revelation and must be obeyed unconditionally. The daily life of the community revolves around these sacred laws. From morning prayers to evening scripture readings, every minute and every second is full of religious rituals. In the "Sacred Realm", the final right of interpretation is held by a judicial committee composed of elders and clergy, who claim to be the messengers of God's will. All legal provisions not only involve personal conduct, but also go deep into the field of thought and speech. Anyone who questions doctrine, objects to tradition, or even simply uses unusual wording may be regarded as violating the sacred law. In order to ensure the consistency of faith and social stability, an extremely strict system is implemented in the community: public punishment. Whenever someone is suspected or confirmed to have expressed dissent—whether it is questioning doctrine or criticizing community institutions—he or she will be taken to the community square to undergo a disciplinary ceremony in public. The ceremony is usually presided over by a committee of judges. The process is solemn and severe, with both verbal admonitions and symbolic physical punishments, such as standing, shaving one's head, or wearing special signs to indicate "immorality" to warn others. This system of public punishment has multiple purposes: on the one hand, it conveys unquestionable authority and strengthens everyone's adherence to sacred laws; on the other hand, through strong social opinion and public humiliation, it forms an invisible deterrent effect. When a person is publicly punished, the neighbors, relatives, and friends around him will deeply understand the serious consequences of heresy, and thus more consciously pledge allegiance to the common belief and value system. In such a community, from an early age, every child is instilled with an almost absolute ethical concept: questioning and criticism is a blasphemy against the sacred order, and only absolute obedience can gain inner peace and social recognition. Schools and families are the educational outposts of this creed, and any unusual thoughts will be quickly discovered and corrected. After adulthood, personal life decisions, marriage choices, and even career plans must be approved by the collective and clergy to ensure that every voice is in line with the "covenant." Although from the outside world's point of view, such a system obviously violates the basic pursuit of freedom of speech and personal dignity in modern society, in the "covenant realm", everyone has internalized the concept of justice of this system and firmly believes that only this almost harsh method can maintain the perfect harmony and purity in the community. Any form of dissent and criticism is regarded as a cancer that destroys this sacred order and must be cut off on the spot to avoid the fall of the entire community. This system has certainly achieved superficial order and unity in the community, but it has also invisibly planted the seeds of tension and fear, causing the entire society to hide constantly growing contradictions and hidden dissatisfaction. As is inevitable in every closed system, the impact of the outside world and the repression of the inside will always trigger unexpected upheavals at some point...
