Why should we favor our system rather than another? what should we answer? Could we not say that democracy IS nothrng more than an attempt to apply the prrnclples of the Brble to human socrety? ls thts not a better phrlosophy than Relrgron IS the oprate of the people or The end Justrfres the means ? Whrle the drama unfolds rtself before our eyes we the spectators should ask ourselves Are our bodres and souls whrch are now th1rst1ng for the thrllls adventures and knowledge of hte to be uselessly expended on a battlefleld and forgotten before we have tasted the frults of lrfe? Should we fear our future l1fe and the multrple complexmes 1t brtngs wrth lt?
