There will, indefinitely come a time, - when the attitude will be and people will say, - simple and learned alike, - about our time and era in which we live, - that it was a time when the attitude - in the academic circles and the accepted and the authoritive institutes, - about religion and related issues, - was that these were phenomena of no real substance and no real or true foundation, - and investigation and the research of these were conducted as merely relating to superficial layers of narratives and their comparison and assumed origin.
- This is all I wanted to say here. January 14, 2019. - This day is impossible not to come. I will not argue. But understanding could not be still awaiting forever, it will inevitably arise, it is not possible for it not to dawn.
Today learned scholars who for some reason go to the trouble of investigating the issues of spirit and religion would usually relate to their issues of research as some sort of anthropological phenomena and the idea of looking for a real root of actual facts behind various beliefs would most clearly normally not occur. Now of course this behaviour seems natural to most, in accord with common beliefs of materialistic nature which are taken for granted unquestionably. - In an age of darkness the intellectuals imagine themselves progressive. - But quite in contrast with this dry view of the educated today who trust their sources, - in future times when faith will be re-established and the place of this world will be further and better known and understood, the strange phenomenon of this peculiar age will be most easily seen for what it is, - though the present proud leaders and pioneers of mankind - heading a slim two dimensional plain of thought devoid of any actual volume - will not be there to capture a glimpse of their concluded foolishness.

Slightly corrected on March 8th, same year.
(I wrote the above as it is here, - as it appears here, dates mentioned. – However, after that while looking through dictionaries I found out “indefinitely” means not definitely, completely different from what I thought. – I thought “indefinitely” means most definitely, - like “invaluable” meaning most valuable. I did try to rewrite this, - but eventually still decided to leave it as it is: - On “Wordnik” I found what they say – “... we believe, like Humpty Dumpty, that words mean what we want them to mean” . – “”When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less””. – So this is the way it is – though, - of course, - “indefinitely” here means most definitely, unquestionably, - with great certainty, not otherwise. – Still, - you could find a corrected version here, - where the use is as it is usually supposed to be. – Also, - the word “authoritive” is supposed to be a mistake, - “authoritative” is supposed to be the correct form, - but it seems the meaning is not exactly the same: - “Authoritative” seems to have more of a meaning of bearing formal authority, - while “authoritive” feels more like having to do with being generally or spiritually considered of an authoritative nature or reliable superiority widely accepted by the public in general, not primarily in the formal sense, - so Humpty Dumpty may apparently prove his attitude correct here too.)
