Primitive man could not distinguish between genius and insanity; idiots were either beaten to death or revered as fetish personalities. [1] Many people looked upon geniuses as fetish personalities possessed by a wise spirit. [2] Every civilization is limited by available natural resources, inherent genius, and sufficient leisure to insure inventive fruition. [3]
In a religious genius, strong spiritual faith so many times leads directly to disastrous fanaticism, to exaggeration of the religious ego, but it was not so with Jesus. [4]
Jesus’ advice regarding disposition of wealth was: “If you chance to secure wealth by flights of genius, if your riches are derived from the rewards of inventive endowment, do not lay claim to an unfair portion of such rewards. The genius owes something to both his ancestors and his progeny; likewise is he under obligation to the race, nation, and circumstances of his inventive discoveries”. [5] The flight of genius is neutralized by the gravity of mediocrity. [6] The normal man should be fostered; he is the backbone of civilization and the source of the mutant geniuses of the race. [7] Genius and creative originality are very much fostered in the main continental nation of a closer inhabited planet. [8]
