Who told you? My doctor, his charts, his machines, his X-rays. Well does God know anything about this, and you’re about to say, “Well I suppose so,” but it occurs to you that if God knew something about this, how come God is letting it happen? How come God is letting a million plus die every year, how come God is selecting, fifty thousand youths and sending them away and saying, “Here, get your brains shot out?” How come God permits two thousand to be massacred in five minutes? How can God permit two million Blacks to be massacred in Biafra? How come God permits war after war after war, killing off what seems to be his own creation? Is that what the human mind sees, is it truth, is it what God sees? And finally, we see we have been creating a monster called God, a monster who kills, who permits killing, who encourages killing. Then we look at the real monster and find out it is the human mind; the misperceiving mind, the miscreating mind, the unillumined mind, that mind which walks the earth in a body of clay, and sees what is not there.
