Greatest Difficulty
04 Jan 2024“As soon as men decide that all means are permitted to fight an evil, then their good becomes indistinguishable from the evil that they set out to destroy. The subordination of morals to politics, the reign of terror and the technique of propaganda and psychological aggression can be used by any Power or Party that is bold enough to abandon moral scruples and plunge into the abyss.
This is the greatest difficulty that faces us at the present time.”
–Christopher Dawson (1942:9-10), The Judgement of the Nations, London: Sheed & Ward
