<TITLE>07. Par 28-31</TITLE>L-28 Then there's the super cars. We have to drive down the road... They're used to be they could drive... When I first come towards the west coast, I was sixteen days in a Model T, but I got here. Now, it's about four days in a Ford. But 'course, my first Ford, and the roads I had, I could only make thirty miles an hour; and that was fifteen miles this way, and fifteen miles this way. But we got super highways now: super cars, super highways.
And we are trying to think to the world that they got super people, supermen. Got it on the radio and television, "Superman." They want super race. Hitler said the Germans was super race. Stalin thought Russia was a super race. Khrushchev thinks the same thing. England said, "As long as there's a world, there'll be an England," super race. America thinks they're the super race. We got the intelligence and everything; that's all we need. So we are the super race.

L-29 Super race, super ways, super, everything, super. Got to be great--greater than the ordinary. One man's got to be... He's got to have a super house. They change in every year: 1962 model houses won't be no good in 1963. Your refrigerator's got to be a little super. It's got to step up a little more. Just put a little more ornament on it, and make you swap the old one in, and pay a couple, three hundred dollars more and get you another one. That's the way it is. It's all super. It's just a big money making scheme. I think we're better off with a horse and buggy. That's right.

L-30 Got to a spot, like I was preaching the other day, it's a blowing-up time. Everything's blowing up. People are blowing up, getting too much pressure built up. Why don't you slow down and live? Huh? That's right. What you in such a hurry about? We got to have super meetings in our church: fifteen minutes. That's the modern trend, about fifteen minutes. If you don't, the deacon board takes you in the back and wants to know what's the matter. So everything's super.
All of this is signs pointing to an oncoming darkness (That's right.), coming to a unknown age. We're going into a mystic, unknown age where super is going to break out into mysticism. They don't know where they're going.
A man will drive down the road at ninety miles an hour, take the chance on breaking his neck, and somebody else's family to be killed, stop at a beer tavern, drink two hours 'fore he goes home. What's the matter with him? All got to hurry up too much of a hurry. Be better if we just took our time.

L-31 Now, man has always tried in himself to do something to make a memorial to himself. We've just had some of that just take place, as we all know. But it's just the idea that man wants to do something for his own achievement. He won't leave things just the way it is. He's got to do something to it.
In our country they had to cut out all the woods, and that lets the storms pass through and tear up everything. And now, they've dammed up the river. That makes a flood sweep over and wash out the cities. Now, they've got so many super bombs and things till "Fallout, danger" signs everywhere. Russia's turned it loose over there. And a few years now and the sea is going to be boiling up, and--and we'll all be killed with fallout, they say.
