“It has been the White Race who has been the world builder, the maker of cities and commerce and continents. It is the White Man who is the sole builder of civilizations. It was he who build the Egyptian civilization, the great unsurpassed Roman civilization, the Greek civilization of beauty and culture, and who, after having been dealt a serious blow by a new Semitic religion, wallowed through the Dark Ages, finally extricated himself, and then build the great European civilization.” MenWorldHas BeensAgeCultureDarkWhiteRaceCitiesSeriousCivilizationBlowGreekMakersSoleContinentsCommerceWhite ManDark AgesBuilderEgyptianWhite RaceRoman CivilizationGreek CivilizationEgyptian Civilization Author:Ben Klassen
“The more serious poetry of the race has a philosophical structure of thought. It contains beliefs and conceptions in regard to the nature of man and the universe, God and the soul, fate and providence, suffering, evil and destiny. Great poetry always has, like the higher religion, a metaphysical content. It deals with the same august issues, experiences and conceptions as metaphysics or first philosophy.” MenFirstsSoulPhilosophySufferingUniverseEvilBeliefDealsRaceDestinyIssuesFateSeriousHigherPhilosophicalRegardStructureConceptionProvidenceMetaphysicsMetaphysicalAugustNature Of ManGreat PoetGreat Poetry Book:The Field of Philosophy: An Outline of Lectures on Introduction to Philosophy Source: The Field of Philosophy: An Outline of Lectures on Introduction to Philosophy

“There came a time in my life when I doubted the divinity of the Scriptures, and I resolved as a lawyer and a judge I would try the Book as I would try anything in the courtroom, taking evidence for and against. It was a long, serious and profound study and using the same principles of evidence in this religious matter as I always do in secular matters, I have come to the decision that the Bible is a supernatural Book, that it has come from God, and that the only safety for the human race is to follow its teachings.” TryingHumansLongBookMatterReligiousDecisionRacePrinciplesStudyTeachingSeriousJudgingEvidenceSafetyProfoundLawyerScriptureHuman RaceDivinitySecularDoubtedCourtroom Author:Salmon P.

“Those who would administer [charity] wisely must, indeed, be wise, for one of the serious obstacles to the improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity. It were better for mankind that the millions of the rich were thrown into the sea than spent to encourage the slothful, the drunken, the unworthy. Of every thousand dollars spent in so-called charity today, it is probable that nine hundred and fifty dollars is unwisely spent - so spent, indeed, as to produce the very evils which it hopes to mitigate or cure.” TodayEvilRaceMillionsRichWiseSeaMankindProduceSeriousThousandHundredDollarsCharityObstaclesImprovementNineCuresFiftyThrownBeing WiseUnworthy Author:Andrew Carnegie
