تأمل فيما نفعله لأطفالنا. لا نقول لهم: "يظن بعض الناس أن الأرض دائرية، ويظن آخرون أنها مسطحة، وحين تكبر فإنك تستطيع -لو أردت- البحث في الأدلة وتكوين رأيك الخاص". بل إننا نقول: "الأرض دائرية". وحين يكون أطفالنا في عمر يستطيعون فيه البحث في الأدلة، تكون البروباغاندا التي عملناها عليهم قد أغلقت عقولهم...

Denken wir einmal daran, was wir mit unseren Kindern machen. Wir sagen ihnen nicht: "Manche Menschen denken, dass die Erde rund ist, und andere, dass sie flach ist; wenn du erwachsen bist, kannst du, wenn du möchtest, die Beweise ansehen und dir selbst eine Meinung bilden." Stattdessen sagen wir: "Die Erde ist rund." Wenn unser Kinder dann einmal alt genug sind, sich die Beweise anzusehen, hat unsere Propaganda bereits ihren Geist verschlossen.

Konsideru tion, kion ni faras al niaj infanoj. Ni ne diras al ili: "Iom da personoj pensas ke la Tero estas ronda, kaj aliaj pensas ke ĝi estas plata; kiam vi estos kreskinta, vi povos, se vi volos, ekzameni la indikaĵojn, kaj formi vian propran konkludon." Anstataŭ ĉi tio, ni diras: "La Tero estas ronda." Je tempo kiam niaj infanoj estos sufiĉe aĝaj por ekzameni la indikaĵojn, nia propogando estos jam ferminta iliajn mensojn...

Tenk på hva vi gjør med barna våre. Vi sier ikke til dem: "Noen mennesker tror at jorden er rund, og noen tror den er flat; når du blir voksen kan du, vis du vil, undersøke faktaene og gjøre opp din egen konklusjon." I stedet for dette sier vi: "Jorden er rund." Innen barna våre blir gamle nok til å undersøke faktaene har propagandaen vår lukket deres sinn...

Considerad lo que les hacemos a nuestros hijos. No les decimos "algunas personas creen que la Tierra es redonda, y otras que es plana; cuando crezcas, puedes, si quieres, examinar las pruebas y llegar a tus propias conclusiones". En su lugar decimos "la Tierra es redonda". Para cuando nuestros hijos son lo suficientemente grandes como para examinar las pruebas, nuestra propaganda ha bloqueado su mente...
