Destiny and Penalty Thought in Xia Dynasty
(A) the theocracy of the Xia Dynasty
In the slave society of China, the slave owner class not only controls the material means of production, but also dominates the social spiritual culture. They not only rely on material means to rule and oppress slaves, but also use spiritual means to deceive and enslave slaves in order to maintain their rule. Their fabricated theocracy thoughts such as "Destiny" and "Heavenly Punishment" are trying to deify and legalize their ruling power, and describe the law that reflects their will as the embodiment of God's will.
According to legend, slave owners in Xia Dynasty began to cheat slaves by using the theocratic ideas of "destiny" and "punishment", which put on a legal coat for Wang Xia's rule.
(B) The development of theocracy in Shang Dynasty
With the development of slave production relations and the strengthening of kingship, the slave owners' thoughts of "destiny" and "heaven punishment" in Yin Shang Dynasty have developed greatly. Slave owners in Yin Shang Dynasty were famous for their superstition of ghosts and gods. "Yin people respect God and lead civil gods". Slave owners in Yin Shang used divination to deceive people, which made people "respect ghosts and gods and fear the law". In fact, the essence of "divination" is only to embody the will of the king with the will of God, so that the rulers can enslave and deter the people in spirit.
The concept of punishment of the rulers of Yin and Shang dynasties is closely related to the above-mentioned thought of divine right of destiny. "Worship ghosts and gods" is to make people "fear the law". They say that the execution of punishment is God's will, and they follow God's instructions.
All these show that since the slave society in our country, the ruling class has used the method of combining theocracy, political power and clan power to cover up the class nature of law and impose cruel penalties on slaves and civilians.
