A private temple in Tainan, Taiwan, sparked outrage by falsely 'marrying' the deity Mazu to Guan Gong, prompting criticism from followers and netizens leading to the temple's social media being shut down. Folklore expert Chen Zhenfu warned that such actions could incur divine punishment and cause Mazu to leave, possibly being possessed by demons. The temple's conduct was deemed inappropriate by the public and the nearby temple, with legal actions being prepared. Chen highlighted the consequences of disrespecting deities and advised against exploiting religious beliefs for personal gains.
