"Is not ... political thinking as religious already since the entry of Christianity into history, sonun also moral ... and by our real circumstances ... and uprooted by our real sense of culture?" (Sp. 791). With spruce against Wilhelminian colonial policy (Sp. 793). Then to the "will of the people" as a "mythical greatness" or a "concept of life", far away from any statistics and all majority thinking (Sp. 794, 809); only "rabble" understands "by German a loutish uprising against the foreign nationalities in our fatherland; ... It is the people for whom we fight, whose blood we have in our veins, whose future we have in our will" (Sp.795). Bonus for true liberalism, including the liberal "idea of solidarity of the cultural peoples" (Sp. 812).very instructive; from special-print folder "Evidence. 1912-1914"4 sheets
