Hitler : Alan Watts' Opinion

I
There was a time, when we sought comprehension
These days, power and media aim for control, commercialization

II
Alan Watts, once a native Anglican, became American Episcopalian
Left the ministry to teach Eastern philosophy, holistic education

III
Alan has left planet Earth (1970s), is beyond thought police, "mistake" -
Said, "One ought to get angry with someone like Hitler. But he's as natural as an earthquake."

Debra L Brown Date: 1/12/2022 2:22:00 PM Brother Anil, you've written a fantastic piece. You had me looking up this verses in the Bible... (Timothy 4:1) Describes your story. It's heartbreaking to witness a man of faith go so far astray. This only proves that we are nearing the end of the world. Thank you, Anil. Your story was enjoyable to read.
