This is as true today, and it speaks to the greatest danger in our midst.
Our problem is not the threat of fascism, so much as it’s the complacency and lack of conviction with which we are facing the problem.
German poet Heinrich Heine was once asked why men no longer build cathedrals. He replied:
“People in those old times had convictions; we moderns only have opinions. And it needs more than a mere opinion to erect a Gothic cathedral.”
Cologne Cathedral took 632 years to complete. Does modern man have the necessary conviction to build something like this today?
