own sacrificial lambs. There is limited opportunity for the body to<br />

participate, and thus also for awareness and the application of<br />

instinctive forces. These forces, not refined through rituals with the<br />

participation of bodies, souls and society, remain in the form of<br />

unconscious uncultivated energy and most frequently tend to<br />

dependencies (something that often accompanies computer games).<br />

Or to social explosion.<br />

That is the possibility we now fear.<br />

Thoughts about the end of our civilisation emerge; historians<br />

and archaeologists find examples in regions worldwide. We encounter<br />

fatality, impotence, paganism and other ideological traps.<br />

We also encounter creative thinking. “We are beginning to<br />

shift from today’s global economics, which have outgrown our ability,<br />

back to local communities and economies. Individual regions begin<br />

with modern technologies to create modern self-sufficient systems.<br />

Every economy begins in a region, in an enterprise, not somewhere in<br />

a ministry or in parliament. Nothing comes down from above,<br />

everything emerges from below...” (Milan Zelený, Lidové noviny, 13<br />

August 2016). Thus, an analysis of the economy too, not only of<br />

human groups, can come to a similar conclusion; that is, that human<br />

society is better suited to a limited number of members, as is the<br />

possibility of direct communication and the experience of one’s own<br />

senses. One has to protect oneself from mass society, and to support<br />

the structuring and independence of small natural units.<br />

The endangered species, including white Europeans,<br />

have to be protected<br />

The community of Europeans should protect their own culture and<br />

gene pool. However, the bureaucratisation of power accumulates. The<br />

last profound rebuilding of values was triggered by the experience of<br />

the genocidal World War II. The subsequent Universal Declaration of<br />

Human Rights (UN 1948) binds states to make provision for<br />

“universal respect for and observance of human rights and<br />

fundamental freedoms”.<br />

Human rights have become an ethical cannon; human duties,<br />

however, the basis of civic society, remain unexpressed. At the<br />

beginning, they could be balanced by a thousand-year-old tradition:<br />

The Ten Commandments are composed of human duties alone.<br />

However, for the last half century the advance of technology and<br />

development of society has accelerated so much that the theme of<br />

human rights has changed into the theme of human possibilities,<br />

almost unlimited.
