Quote by Plato

Atheism is a disease of the soul, before it becomes an error of the understanding

Atheism is a disease of the soul, before it becomes an error

Summary

This quote suggests that atheism is not simply a matter of lacking belief in a higher power, but rather a deeper affliction of the soul. It conveys the idea that disbelief in God or higher powers may originate from an emotional or spiritual deficiency rather than a logical or rational mistake. In other words, it implies that atheism is a symptom of a deeper underlying issue within an individual's inner being before it manifests as a cognitive error in their understanding of the world.

Kami antarsaudara terpaksa saling bunuh hanya karena kekuasaan. Itulah yang nyaris terjadi di setiap negara. Demokrasi yang sekarang menggejala, apakah benar akan mengantarkan manusia pada kesadaran untuk berhenti saling membunuh? Tidak juga. Di negeri seberang, di mana kudengar demokrasi diberikan begitu leluasa, malah kejahatan, pembunuhan, pemerkosaan terhadap perempuan, saling fitnah, saling rebut kekuasaan hampir terjadi setiap hari.
