The ideological bomb was launched in the heart of a big world religion, destroying more than ever before. If up until now we knew the killing effects of atomic bombs, now in the terrorism age, we have assisted the appearance of a new form of weapon: the ideological bomb. For this to be efficient, it is first of all used by terrorists who throw a doctrine out in the air – in other words, a fortress of human values, from the inside. Here is how this weapon appeared, terrible both through its effects as well as through the fact that most of the time it cannot be detected unless by those who are very well prepared from the spiritual point of view – which reduces drastically their number. This weapon is the one that was launched at the beginning of the year 2002 by the United States Department of Defense and it represents the greatest attack ever launched against the Christian world. When the Christian countries (led by the United States) launched the doctrine of “Preemptive attacks”, they actually, blow out one of Christianity’s fundamental pillars, which says: “turn the other cheek”. In this way – similar to the crashing down of the Twin Towers in September 11th 2001, which obviously had had their foundation pillars cut, so that they could fall down due to their own weight in such a spectacular and convincing way – also the structure of the Christian world is now seriously damaged by this terrorist attack at the level of ideas. How can Christian teachings now be taught in the countries which had adopted and had already acted in the name of this doctrine? If until now there is at least the justification that “we did not know that what we do contradicts so much our spiritual teachings”, now we can no longer have a justification! These aggressive actions are made in the name of a clear doctrine which flagrantly contradicts the Christian teachings. In this context, the non-existent reaction of the Christian church representatives appears even more serious. Because although they have heard – just like we did – about this ideological terrorism action, they did nothing to stop or even to counteract the disastrous effects of this irresponsible act. Here is how, after 2000 years of Christian thinking and feeling and from the bosom of the nations proud of their Christian heritage - as opposed to Islam, at least – they come to the conclusion that it is better if we attack first, instead of turning the other cheek, as the Teacher used to say, 2000 years ago. A strange modern adaptation of a universal principle.
