"But did the German people really have the option to overturn Hitler?" I interjected. "The Nazis had the whole nation captivated with Goebbels propaganda machine. I think, the German people, in spite of their high culture, lacked the spiritual resources within them to rescue themselves from this trap."
"That's hogwash, Peter!" Steve protested. "That's a cheap excuse and you know it. Let's look at the facts, Peter. The German people had the greatest principles ever created developed right in their midst. The Treaty of Westphalia for example, which became the foundation for modern civilization, was a part of Germany's cultural heritage, including its underlying renaissance principle, the Principle of the Advantage of the Other. That principle had become a part of German culture. It had come closer to reflecting the Principle of Universal Love than any principle ever had. However, society didn't care enough to hold on to it. If society had kept these principles rooted in their heart and soul, especially at the grassroots level, thereby creating a nation of Samaritans, then Joseph Goebbels would have achieved nothing with his clown tricks. He would have stood powerless. So, don't put all the blame on Goebbels. He only worked with what had been handed to him on a silver platter."
Steve smiled and nodded. "That's how we must approach the Ice Age today," he continued quietly. "People are dreaming this wonderful dream that the "reality doesn't affect them," but in the end it does. The fact is that we can't ignore that the Principle of Universal Love or any of its countless natural reflections. This fact is especially profound in economics where the Principle of Universal Love is fundamental to everything. We need a vibrantly productive economy, the kind of economy in which the financial aggregates are focused exclusively on the continuing increase of the power of human labor throughout the entire system. When this happens the economic process becomes secure," said Steve. "Society may legalize stealing in a big way, as it presently does, in order that huge profits may be garnered in the financial gambling casinos where nothing of value is being produced for society. But, Peter, even this most pompous artificial legitimacy of stealing from one another doesn't alter the fact that no legislation, no matter how strongly it is supported, can change the universal principles that are thereby being ignored. That is why the entire present system is doomed to collapse and to disintegrate. We simply cannot overrule universal principles with the arrogance of will, or legislation."
I began to laugh and applaud him.
Steve reached his hand out and began to laugh too. "I see, we understand each other," he said. "If only more people would join us. The present level of insanity is scary that society has drifted into as people began to separate the unity between financial wealth and physical production. They are spitting into the face of the fundamental principles and then complain about the consequences," said Steve and began to laugh too.
"What is happening today is like people jumping into the ocean, expecting not to get wet, then complaining bitterly when they do get wet," I said. "Suddenly they realize that they are drowning."
"That's the kind of insanity that we see today, Peter, which has never been seen or experienced before on our planet with the intensity that we are experiencing now. And if this isn't scary enough for you, consider that the trend has just begun."
"It's more than scary," I interjected. "It's a crying shame! The current trend is the end product of decades of cultural warfare that has been unleashed to keep the looting financial empires alive. People are dying, rather than fighting back. Society has been dragged into this dream of pleasant illusions."
