Karl Marx. Remember, he called the State, God, and formed a theology. He fashioned his ideology first as a Jew and finally as an atheist.

From the Hebrew prophets he reached out and applied their belief that a violent social change was inevitable.

Playing off this religious base he came to the conclusion that it was perfectly all right to kill off a few thousand in the name of improvement.

From atheism he extracted the belief that there is no hereafter and therefore was perfectly comfortable in disrupting the herenow of 800 million people. He fed the people a famine while trying to convince them it was a feast.

But then, of course, this isn’t the only example of poor spiritual and mental eating habits.

After World War I, things weren’t going so well in Europe. In Germany, its war-weary and destitute people were also looking for a leader – a savior.

Willing to accept anyone if the promises were big enough. All the while in a dingy jail cell sat Adolph Hitler writing Mein Kampf, which became the creed for National Socialism.

Its theme was absurd, but perfectly acceptable to a nation gone blind in one eye and not able to see out of the other one. It’s theme read; I believe in a god who has sent us Adolph Hitler to save us from becoming parasites and do-nothings. I believe in a god who has sent us Adolph Hitler to bring back to us beauty and truth. I believe in Adolph Hitler because I no longer believe in myself.

It was a stupid idea and, looking back, it seems difficult to believe any that intelligent human beings could have bought into it. But people, because of greed or arrogance or anger or desperation, buy into stupid ideas all the time.

And so in not too long a time, all of Germany was shouting this nonsense: goose stepping through not only their own country but many other lands. Persecuting Jews and anyone else who got in their way, and supping at the table of power and conquest.

Hello, Isaiah, what was that you said?
“It shall even be as when a hungry man dreameth, and behold he eateth; but he awaketh and his soul is empty.”
