1519. But the fact that the nations of the world are increasingly experiencing the effects of their as-yet unfinished life together – based as it is on the animal principle – has been made abundantly clear by the infernal day of judgement that has just passed over the Earth, and whose repercussions cry to the very heavens in the form of piles of rubble and mutilated human beings, as well as the sorrows, hardships and tears of the relatives of the millions who have died or been executed. Within just one generation the day of judgment has cast two huge infernal impulses upon mankind, upon the Earth, and with each infernal impulse the cry for justice, which means, for protection against a repetition of such an infernal impulse, has resulted in an attempt to form a league of nations, which in turn is the same as a world authority in its infancy. It quickly became evident that there was insufficient sustenance in the world for such a league after the first world conflagration, and that it had therefore to die. It became just as quickly evident that a new infernal impulse was needed in order to prepare the Earth even more for the rebirth of such a league.
