Utopia-Nearer ThanYouThink!
B
ack in 1934, when the
Plain Truth
magazi ne was born and the
World
Tomorrow
program first started on
the air, I predicted the future
union of the nations of Europe,
resurrecting the ancient Roman Empire.
That momentous event is near.
When this political, military and religious
un ion in Europe is accomplished, it will
completely alter the entire world scene. [ t will
provide a
third
GIANT
power, equal to or even
superior to either the United States or Russia!
And, to the surprise of most, the world wi ll be
startled to Jearn that it will have been provided
with mi litary
NUCLEAR
power!
Nat ions never in history have produced new and
more destructive weapons without using them. It is
possible that the nuclear World War III, more
frightful than anything in human history,
may
explode on an unsuspecting world
during this
decade!
But THERE IS ALSO UNBELLEVABLE
GOOD
NEWS!
If
what I have said looks depress ing, there is the
br ighter side! IF t his happens, it will be merely the
storm befare the dawn of a beautiful, happy WORLD
OF PEACE.
The fut ure indeed Iooks bleak and hopeless ...
UNLESS there shall appear AN UNSEEN HAND FROM
SOMEPLACE to change it. That possibility is not as
ridiculous as many will t hink. 1 would even go so
far as to say it is
more than possible
such an
unexpected turn in events shall occur during
this
decade!
Why
shouldn't
we have UTOPIA
here
on earth?
WHY?
The Los Angeles
Times
sorne t ime ago ran a
story on a UTOPIAN college campus. The word
utopía
was used in its headline. It was a story t he
Times
did on a unique and different college
campus, where there are no riots, but where
Aprll 198 2
everybody is smiling and seems to be really
happy!
It is a college campus asso<;:iated with
The Plain
Truth!
It
is the campus of Ambassador College,
Pasadena, California.
There is a CAUSE for every effect. There is a
CAUSE for al! the world's troubles. There is also a
CAUSE for the enjoyable happiness that radiates all
over this campus.
Although there is a saying about it being darkest
just befare dawn, and we are now rapidly being
whisked into that very shor t period of darkness in
world history, it is the most SURE sigo of the DAWN
immediately beyond. And it is ent irely possible that
t he l980s may be the decade that brings that very
UTOPIA tO t he world.
And WHY NOT? The dictionary describes Utopia
as an imaginary state of PERFECTION. But WHY
should it be imaginary or'impossible? Why
shouldn't we have PEACE on earth, with universal
prosperity, good health, right education, abundant
well-being for EVERYBODY?
You may call Ambassador College an experiment
in UTOPIA if you like- but students and facu lty on
the Ambassador campus in Pasadena and the
two-year sister campus in Big Sandy, Texas, will
tell you we surely are approaching utopia-these
campuses are happy, joyfu l places to be. We
advocate this WAY in
The Plain Truth.
We practice
what we preach. And we certainly ENJOY the
result!
True, we do say it actually
will
require this
"strong hand from someplace" to salve the world's
troubles and b r ing us PEACE. Then the critic will
ask, "Aren't you saying it is IMPOSSIBLE for
humanity to salve our problems?" No! We
don't
say it is impossible-we say HUMANITY IS NOT
WILLING-humanity REFUSES. Jt is impossible ONLY
because bumani ty rejects THE
w
AY to peace,
prosperity and aU the GOOD THINGS only because
bumanity REFUSES.
1t
is not impossible. We are PROV ING that at
Ambassador College. o
