高俊明辭世、施明德痛哭:有真正高尚的人格 新頭殼20190215

高牧師明明是施明德的「恩人、受惠者、受保護者」,施明德卻視為「外界通俗的眼光」、「那個意義就很小了」,而以「公義」(共同為台灣付出、共同為苦難、為愛、為公義受苦的弟兄)為化妝,轉為「弟兄」(提高自己位階)關係。



高俊明辭世、施明德痛哭:有真正高尚的人格    新頭殼20190215
台灣基督長老教會高俊明牧師14日辭世,前民進黨主席施明德聽聞後激動痛哭,表示高俊明是偉大的人,是「苦難者腳前的光、是飢渴者不竭的糧」;同時,綠營人士也紛紛悼念,行政院長蘇貞昌也透過發言人轉述,高俊明牧師的逝世,除了是他痛失一位好友,更是台灣社會的重大損失。

高俊明長期投入民主運動,1979年美麗島事件發生後,高俊明因幫助施明德逃亡,於1980424日被捕,被判有期徒刑7年入獄,並於1984年出獄;但2006年紅衫軍倒扁時,兩人立場相左,高俊明曾批施明德「貪財、好色、是賣台集團第一勇士」,最後高俊明在20089月召開記者會向施明德道歉。

施明德昨日接受中央社電話訪問時淚流不止,表示自己正看著2008年高俊明親手寫的聲明「我深深後悔我說了那樣嚴厲的話,也要懺悔我的不當言論於上帝與眾人的面前」。

施明德說,紅衫軍時,高俊明聽信別人的話,批評他「貪財、好色、是賣台集團第一勇士」,後來知道犯了錯,後悔對他說了嚴厲的話,對他公開道歉,希望重建愛的和解,這是高俊明偉大的地方,「這是真正高尚的人格」,高俊明真的很了不起。

對於美麗島事件,施明德回憶,當時他和高俊明其實只見過二、三次面,但高俊明知道他是為了台灣公義而受難,願意承擔風險庇護他;他說,外界通俗的眼光會用「救命恩人」看待他與高俊明的關係,但他覺得,如果用恩人、受惠者、受保護者來看待兩人關係,「那個意義就很小了」,他們是共同為台灣付出、共同為苦難、為愛、為公義受苦的弟兄。

施明德在臉書PO1980年高俊明受審,以及2008年高俊明召開記者會與他和解的照片敬悼高俊明牧師,表示「無盡的哀慟,無限的景仰,您是苦難者腳前的光,您是飢渴者不竭的糧,永遠敬您,永遠愛您」。

對於高俊明逝世,行政院長蘇貞昌透過發言人Kolas Yotaka轉述,表示高俊明牧師的逝世,除了痛失了一位好友,更是台灣社會的重大損失。Kolas指出,蘇貞昌希望高牧師安息,也希望其家屬與教友節哀。

立法院長蘇嘉全昨晚發表聲明,表示高俊明一生奉行天主的標準,實踐上帝博愛的精神,不僅是最虔誠謙卑的教徒,也是自由與人權最堅定的信奉者,更是台灣民主化最關鍵的推手;如今高俊明牧師結束了一生的奮鬥,安息主懷,而台灣的民主之路還在繼續前進,雖然對於他的離去我們非常不捨,但我們知道他的愛與溫暖,將永遠與這塊土地同在。

  1. Reverend Gao's memoir is a powerful book to me. There was a chapter for his son. This chapter was told by Mrs. Gao.
    It read to me that this son suffered far more than other 2 female siblings consequently to his father's bravery. Because a man had mandatory army service.
    A true hero takes his responsibility prior to anything else. The duty of caring our own children stands out naturally. So when the society was listening to his story, reverend Gao made his apology to his son heard at the same time. But he was shy so it was told by his wife.
    I told my mother about this book. I was mad at her, she said that I see Shi Ming-de so low is a mistaken view. Shi had done a lot for democracy. I saw that Shi was a fame seeker, he likes the limelight so much that he could do anything to get it. I cannot detail my thought then. When this memoir hit the market in 2001 I was able to fully explain my logic with the help reading it. It has everything to do with how a person deals with his responsibility.
    If I recall, report said that Shi fathered children to couples women when a controversial novel by Li Ang published.
    I don't buy it a guy so belittled his parental responsibility can be up for a noble goal.
    For the same reason I don't care read any piece written by Peng Ming-min yet I totally respect Shi Ming.
    How sad there was a time things were so bad that Shi Ming-de was acting a hero. Good for us that we have seen his true color

    題外話

    東方文化推崇與世無爭,一生奉獻的聖職形象
    對接受千萬民眾託付的公僕,時時處理牽涉無數人的利害,不可能
    強求選出聖職人員般的政治人物,只會得到馬英九不沾鍋奶油小生

    敝魯偏好典範轉移
    政治領域的人格模範者應像老布希小布希,
    用宗教的話來說,他們是大衛,
    不完美,但是偉大

    知道白左和左統的痛恨
    敝魯更要說
    美國需要清教徒
    清教徒在台灣焚而不燬
