This is “what should be.” Now, if you’re taught to live up to a “what should be” that never existed—only an occult superstition, no proof of this “should be”Mthen you can sit on a jury and indict easily, you can cast the first stone, you can burn Adolf Eichmann, like that!

    Viewed narrowly, all life is universal hunger and an expression of energy associated with it.
    —Mary Ritter Beard (1876–1958)

    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
