Like every age, this one too needs heroes who will stand up to the dragon. Only today we need to be able to conceive of our struggle spiritually, not physically, in order to fight it. We are in a culture war. Every true idea, every ethical principle must be defended like a fortress and a castle that must not be forfeited to the enemy. For this we need the sword of clear discernment, the spear of goodwill and the shield of pure feeling, so as not to be assailable. We must wage verbal and mental battles as if our lives were at stake, for if we do not fight them mentally, physical blood will flow. We must be prepared to risk and sacrifice or we will lose everything including eternity.
