Nazism is often considered to be mystical. However the Nazi ideology as well as totalitarian ideas are ONLY consequences to not regard dialog as a concrete tool. When the dialog is condemned we are forced to believe that we can only obey (logic). Reminder: Aristotle wrote that a contradiction is the opening of a dialog (and to grasp a new perspective). In Mein Kampf (1924) Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) wrote about this misconception - that is the root of Nazism:
"Man's effort to build up something that contradicts the iron logic of Nature brings him into conflict with those principles to which he himself exclusively owes his own existence. By acting against the laws of Nature he prepares the way that leads to his ruin." (From Mein Kampf: Volume I: A Retrospect, Chapter XI, Race and People)

About Mein Kampf: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mein_Kampf
Consequently to believe that we must be limited to logic is to be forced to eliminate everything that is a contradiction to for example the idea of ”nature”. Here ”nature” is in itself a concealed idea of what must be considered ”natural” or ”selfevident”.

Ett allvarligt practical joke: Anmälan till Justitiekanslern
Min tanke var enkel – att visa hur staten än i dag på olika sätt skyddar och försvarar den kristna kyrkans dogm att vi inte kan förstå eller utnyttja vår förmåga att skapa – samt att statens handlande rimligen måste ses som ett systemfel. Givetvis avfärdade JK min anmälan. Något annat var inte att vänta. Det intressanta är inte JKs bemötande utan mina formuleringar.
