The great evil had come as suddenly as a flood and to such an extent that no one had predicted it. Any measure adopted each time gave the impression that it had come too late. And then many scientists who worked on the issue of demographic perspective were accused of incompetence and poor forecasting. Then the public outcry was directed at the Roman Catholic and Protestant Churches, because by “living in the clouds” and by insisting on the old perceptions and the negative attitude, they had contributed to the failure to timely legislate institutions for effective birth control and the monitoring of demographics.
And the days when the whites saw only the person behind the black and yellow skin and preached that “all men were created equal”, the days when white people had even gone into civil wars in order to enforce the principles of humanity and respect for life and freedom of every human being, regardless of their colour, now seemed like a dream…
THEIR DIVISION OF HISTORY
12-VAs I have already mentioned, they divide history into two major periods: the “most ancient”
Before that was the
In schools today they paint a rather exaggerated and grim picture of our times, which they call “prehistoric: an image of chaos, brutality, mutual extermination, a “dark world” with criminal instincts and perversions, with “thirst for pleasures in life and indifference to moral acts”, with materialistic motives everywhere and disregard for decency.
In fact, their idea of love-making was that of a superficial and heartless act, a mere biological pleasure without spiritual contact, emotion or inner qualities. The influence of “family and school” had been reduced to the minimum. The young people were after “life”, “intense activity”; any kind of “dynamic action” rather than thought. The hours of meditation seemed long lost and gone.
The least one of us could say to object to this is that they always “overstated the exceptions”, something that I noticed myself and told Stefan as soon as I got home that night from Lain’s.
He smiled and told me that the production process of the “economic commodities” was arbitrary and completely lacking in coordination. There were also too many rival, dominant political powers and patterns in international relations, something like states within a state, and last but not least, a lack of any monitoring of demographics. He smiled again…
They too have their own historians and their own methodologies in historical research and historiography. Their own distinction, the border between history and prehistory is not the beginning of writing, as it was to us. Their starting point was the prevalence of law and order. This last one—law and order and its final establishment—they consider a prerequisite for real, spiritual civilisation.
I’ve been told that attempts to impose control on births had also been made during “prehistoric times” and on a grand scale indeed, but without “united institutions throughout the world.” And this lack of appropriate institutions had led to extremely grave historical injustices. And it goes without saying that all the efforts for the establishment of political federations and especially economic unions and all sorts of economic consortiums before the
They say that over 450 years of “prehistory” were full of such “experimental institutions” and various “separatist coups”, leading each and every time to global crises and collapses before the final proclamation of the Universal Unifying Assembly on March 5th, 2396 AD, which later in the future came to be triumphantly justified.
