Lesson 45-2 Of men and galaxies
It is not a simplecompetition for a fixed amount of food determined by the physical environment,because the environment that determines our evolution is no longer essentiallyphysical. Our environment is chiefly conditioned by the things we believe.Morocco and California are bits of the Earth in very similar latitudes, both onthe west coasts of continents with similar climates, and probably with rathersimilar natural resources. Yet their present development is wholly different,not so much because of different people even, but because of the differentthoughts that exist in the minds of their inhabitants. This is the point I wishto emphasize. The most important factor in our environment is the state of ourown minds.
It is well knownthat where the white man has invaded a primitive culture, the most destructiveeffects have come not from physical weapons but from ideas. Ideas aredangerous. The Holy Office knew this full well when it caused heretics to beburned in days gone by.
