“And last: devilish is he who erects the kingdom of lies and forces other people to live in it. This still goes beyond the humiliation of spiritual separation, then the kingdom of the perverse world is erected, and the Antichrist wears the mask of the Savior (...). The devil is not the slayer, he is Diabolos, the slanderer, is the 'God' in whom the lie is not cowardice, as in man, but domination. He spills the last resort of despair, the knowledge, he instigates the realm of madness, because it is madness to settle in the lie.”
Arnold Gehlen
Arnold Gehlen was a German philosopher and sociologist known for his work on anthropology and cultural theory.
This quote profoundly illustrates how building a world of lies leads to spiritual captivity and suppresses truth. Gehlen reminds us of the destructive power of lies and the necessity to resist them.
