The Cave of the Apocalypse

The Cave of the Apocalypse can be found on the rocky island of Patmos, deep within the monastery that surrounds it. Patmos is located north of the Greek Islands, off the southwest coast of Turkey. Many believe that St. John or John the Apostle as most people know him, lived here between Chora and Skala.

88) The Failure of Eugenics

I propose that we reconsider the viability of the various Eugenic sciences, and evaluate how the truly human stock might benefit from the weeding of lesser races. Why, it was not in the intentions of the great philosophers of our illustrious history (See: Plato, Nietzsche) to allow for  inferior seed to overcome the righteous life-force of genetic procreation. We cannot permit for the continued perpetuation of sexual promiscuity to interfere with the blossoming of our pricelessly ripe fruit; lest we be overcome by lowly insects, maggots and flies, that will pluck the nectar from our patient and deserving lips. For the betterment of all races, it must openly be a white world, only allowing the half-breeds to procreate under our allowances, so forth.
