THE FOLLOWING IS A DIRECT QUOTATION,
A PRESCIENT ONE: THE FINAL PARAGRAPH OF PAUL JOHNSON'S "MODERN TIMES:
"Certainly, by the last decade
of the century, lessons had plainly been learned. But it was not yet clear
whether the underlying evils which had made possible its catastrophic failures
and tragedies - the rise of moral relativism, the decline of moral
responsibility, the repudiation of Judeo-Christian values, not least the
arrogant belief that men and women could solve all the mysteries of the
universe by their own unaided intellects - were in the process of being
eradicated. On that would depend the chances of the 21st century becoming, by
contrast, an age of hope for mankind."
CERTAINLY NOT YET!
