TO EVOLUTIONIST
PROPAGANDA
We may consider our dreams in order to arrive at a better un-
derstanding of this. Someone who dreams of attending a lecture in
a packed hall is actually lying in bed alone. The image of the lecture
forms within his brain. It is impossible for that person to realize he
is dreaming until he wakes up, and he remains convinced that he is
attending a real lecture.
The German psychiatry professor Hoimar von Ditfurth explains
how we can never see the outside world:
No matter how we put the argument, the result doesn't change.
What stands before us in full shape and what our eyes view is not
the "world." It is only its image, a resemblance, a projection whose
association with the original is open to discussion. 6
Someone who exercises his mind a little will grasp this concept,
which reveals the true nature of the life of this world and helps one
realize just how hollow and meaningless the passions and desires
aimed at this world truly are. The money in someone's wallet, the
yacht he buys for millions of dollars, his holding company, and his
new model car are all images which form within his brain. That in-
dividual can never touch or see the originals of these. All he per-
ceives is images forming at the back of his brain. This is a scientific
fact. The responsibility of all people of reason and good conscience
A person can easily see
how meaningless all his de-
sires regarding this world
are when he stops to think
a little. Nobody can ever ac-
tually really possess the
car or house or position he
thus desires. These are
nothing but images in our
brains. That being the case,
someone who is aware of
this must immediately turn
to Our Lord, Who created
him, and not be swept away
by worldly desires.
