92 THE EVIL CALLED MOCKERY

All medical schools teach in detail how images and feelings form in
the brain. Facts proven by twentieth-century science, and by physics
in particular, clearly show that we can never reach the originals of
physical matter; and that in a sense, everyone is watching the "mon-
itor" in his brain.
Everyone who believes in science, be he an atheist, Buddhist, or
of any other belief, must accept this fact. Even the materialist who
denies the existence of Allah cannot deny scientific reality.
That Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Georges Politzer and others
were never able to comprehend such a simple, evident fact is still
startling, even though their level of scientific understanding was
primitive and insufficient. Our highly advanced science and tech-
nology make it even easier to comprehend this explicit fact.
Materialists, on the other hand, are paralyzed with their fears of
even partially comprehending this fact and thereby, realizing how
completely it demolishes their philosophy.

The Materialists' Great Fear
Materialists have been loudly publicizing their fear and panic
in their publications, conferences and panels for some time. Their
agitated, hopeless discourse implies that they are suffering a severe
intellectual crisis. The collapse of the theory of evolution—the basis

of their so-called scientific philosophy—already came as a great
shock. Now they experience an even greater one, as they realize that
they are losing matter itself, which for them is a greater mainstay
than even Darwinism. They declare that for them, this issue is a
tremendous threat that totally demolishes their cultural fabric.
One who expressed the materialist circles' anxiety and panic in
a most outspoken way was Renan Pekunlu, an academician and
writer in the periodical Bilim ve Utopya (Science and Utopia) which
