Prof. Albert Einstein -2- April 1st 1947
highly cultured, well educated, civilized Europe, without one ex-communicated Christian, one dishonored leader, tied-in with that hatred bred in the books of men, preached by unctuous priests and later inflamed into action, proves my point.
You cannot appeal to men who are indoctrinated with hatred from cradle to grave.
If the Creator of this Universe has left some of His power accessible so that men of your caliber could make that power kn own to man, to use for benefit or destruction, that is as it should be. If it is the Creator's natural law that man can be conditioned by propaganda out of books to improve or destroy himself, that is also as it should be.
Maybe we should not make ourselves miserable for the short span of time that we are here, perplexing ourselves to understand why.
I which you and your colleagues peaceful and healthy years for the rest of the time that we will be fortunate enough to have you with us.
Yours very respectfully, Emanuel H. Licht
