(b. 1908) The world has lost a brave man.
He was a fearless and heroic warrior against the Marxists, and suffered much for the cause of freedom.
When I was in jail for 7 months for my third DUI, reading The Gulag Archipelago was one of the things that gave me hope and kept me grateful. In a way it may have helped save my life. Those were very dark days for me...but nothing compared to his.
Wikipedia puts it very well :
He described the problems of both East and West as "a disaster" rooted in agnosticism and atheism. He referred to it as "the calamity of an autonomous, irreligious humanistic consciousness."
It has made man the measure of all things on earth—imperfect man, who is never free of pride, self-interest, envy, vanity, and dozens of other defects. We are now paying for the mistakes which were not properly appraised at the beginning of the journey. On the way from the Renaissance to our days we have enriched our experience, but we have lost the concept of a Supreme Complete Entity which used to restrain our passions and our irresponsibility.
Thank you, Aleksandrovich . Resquiat In Pace.
