For the first time in history, the rational and the good are fully armed in the battle against evil. Here we finally find the answer to our paradox; now we can understand the nature of the social power held by evil. Ultimately, the evil, the irrational, truly has no power.

In time, as more honest men grasp the truth, evil’s stranglehold will be easily broken.
