P. 162
Each character has his own role model and considers him
to be ideal. The set features of this role model do not
change because ideal qualities can not change. If his idol
changes, he will no longer be the prototype of his
perceptions. The postulates how to lead our lives are set
according to this idol. Changing or denying this idol is
basically losing it and love for the idol does not alter easily.
People nowadays are more interested in the form than in
the essence. The form is exposed and can be changed.
This preference for the form allows for demagogy and
blurs the truth. Blurred truth gives opportunity to the
negative elements to thrive. Inability hides behind
demagogy and thus exploits both material and spiritual
values.
This great social problem can have a positive turn only
with a unique system of education in the whole world. The
subjects should be carefully selected in order to produce
quality of knowledge that will eventually lead to increased
intelligence and positive outcomes, thus changing
people’s frame of mind and differentiating between good
and evil; moral and immoral; real truth from demagogy.
