<TITLE>05. Par 17-20</TITLE>L-17 And they'll slip right in and see how that weapon is, and then they'll send it to their own country, and--and they'll prepare for a counterattack. Whether if we would use this weapon, why, they could counterattack it to us. Or if we should use their weapon, or they use their weapon on us, our spies... And we'll build up some weapon to combat the weapons that they're planning on using. Or some secret--a secret service or some secret thing we are planning on doing. And they'll make ready, because they got spies here for that purpose, to spy and see what we're doing. We got spies there, spying out, seeing what they're doing. Seems like we just can't really trust one another. Just, it just looks like there's something in human beings that just goes so far and that's all the farther it can go.

L-18 I'm glad there's something we can put complete trust in, aren't you? Something that's... We don't have to wonder, think about, just know that we could just rest like little children. I think that's the way we should be, especially Christians. We should be like... In the beginning you notice, man is trying to find that place, because when he was first made in the image of God, he didn't have to shift for himself, and God taken care of him. But since he become a--an alien, or a--a wanderer, then he has to shift for himself, and he's suspicious of everything. He's just (if you excuse the expression) kind of spooky. Everything looks a little leery, he's gone, he don't want to wait for it.

L-19 Now, nations do these things. They spy out. And they're constantly... Because that they have to do this, is because their old weapons that they used to use become obsolete. Now, what would we do with a bow and arrow that they once used? Or what would we do with the old weapons that they used in the First World War? The old Krag-Jorgensen rifle? Or what would we do with the Springfield? That's been replaced. The last war was a Garand. This war with an atomic missile in it. See, it--it becomes obsolete.

L-20 The old airplane that we used to--air knocker, that went across in the First World War, why, they used a three or four-engine plane in this last war. And now, it's just junk, no good; it's obsolete. Spend millions of dollars to make them up, then--then throw them in a big molding pot and mold them out again, because that the enemy, and our spies reporting, has brought in news that they got a greater plane.
Now, we go by jet. Now, they got it so they can time it to a star, pull one lever, and the whole world goes into a cloud of dust. So it's just about the end of this thing. And there is hardly anything they know what to do now. All the old weapons have been changed and become wreckage.
I was thinking, the old coal-burner train that used to take--come down through Jeffersonville there by the depot. And they'd have great lines of guns (and taken it over to Fort Knox where they'd been made), and tanks. That old steam engine that--there's not any of them on the tracks no more. They're all gone. And they're setting around as relics. They used them in this last war. But now she's a diesel. In just a few days she will be an atomic-driven affair. So they just all have to junk it and start over again.
