Comment: Famous chemist Fritz Haber was a Jew and a German patriot. It is believed he saved at least a billion people. When the world’s population increased as harvests began to decline, in 1909, he came up with a way to produce ammonia fertilizers from nitrogen and hydrogen. It was considered one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century dubbed “bread from air.”
War broke out (World War 1), and Haber wanting to prove his loyalty to Germany, experimented with and chlorine (mustard) gas that was first tested in Ypres in 1915. He watched as 3,000 to 5,000 French soldiers died an agonizing death right before his eyes. Soon after, his wife committed suicide from shame and his son committed suicide many years later.
In 1918, Fritz Haber received the Nobel Prize for his work on ammonia (fertlizers). Then he headed the institute where the Cyclone Bet gas was created. At a certain time, millions of people were poisoned with this gas in gas chambers in concentration camps. His relatives and loved ones were killed. In 1933, Hitler came to power, Fritz Haber was thrown out of his institute, and died a year later of a heart attack. Such was his fate.
How does the desire to feed the world and invent a suffocating gas coexist in a person?
My Response: I believe he didn’t think about the consequences of either. Simply, as a man of science, he was driven by the opportunity to create something effective. But for what, plus or minus, I think he did not realize.
Question: Can one live like this? Thousands are being destroyed before your eyes with your invention.
Answer: You can say this about anything. Einstein is also the father of the atomic bomb. What can you do?
Question: But he later renounced it.
Answer: To renounce it makes little difference. You can come to renounce anything, but they have already used it.
Comment: That’s interesting. Sakharov is the father of the hydrogen bomb, etc., and later they become generally righteous.
So, you believe a scientist is driven by discovery, a desire to create?
My Response: Of course, this is what interests him. He is not really aware of the consequences.
Comment: It is not too good to realize people have no principles they won’t cross, regardless what is done to them.
My Response: Not with a true scientist; they do not sense life at all.
Question: Is life a desire to create for them?
Answer: Yes. And what it gets used for does not interest them at the moment. That is, whoever takes on this scientist, will squeeze out all they want from him.
Question: Can we draw some conclusions from this for how not to fall under such an environment, not to take part in such inventions?
Answer: No, a scientist cannot. He has an inquisitive mind, his only interest is in discovering something new.
Question: But is this how one is led from above? Is it known in advance he will be like this?
Answer: Yes, of course, it is the upper governance.
Question: So you don’t condemn Fritz Haber in this case?
Answer: I don’t blame anyone at all. I can’t do anything about it because it is out of our hands.
Question: Everything has boomeranged back into his family. His wife committed suicide, his son committed suicide, his relatives were killed by the very gas he invented. Tell me, does a boomerang law exist or not?
Answer: In general, all the good and all the bad we do comes back to all of us and our loved ones, of course. And we have to somehow make a connection between these things. Maybe try to draw some conclusions for the future.
Question: So is there such a simple formula where the evil done returns to you in one form or another? Is there such a law?
Answer: Yes. That is, you have to constantly discern very carefully what you are doing, what you are engaged in, and where you are headed.
Question: Will my bad thoughts about others come back to me?
Answer: It is the same; they will surely come back to you.
Comment: If a person felt this, he could be more careful.
My Response: For this, he must be constantly on guard. Every person should restrain himself and control his thoughts, desires, and intentions in general.
Question: Is it right to restrain yourself? Meaning, one says to himself: “This is a bad thing, I’m not going there.” Like this?
Answer: Yes, even in thoughts.
Question: Even in thoughts? But it is very difficult.
Answer: We call it intention.
Comment: But I’m not free in my thoughts.
My Response: It doesn’t matter. What is sent to you, you are not free in. But what you do with it is your choice.
Question: The third question is patriotism. What kind of disease is it when one is capable of doing anything, that is, he can give himself completely? Even more so than in any other area.
Answer: He sets himself a goal that he can justify and be proud of.
Comment: This is my motherland. I am ready to kill for it, do anything, etc.
My Response: Indeed. All this is found in the worst atrocities by the way. Look what Hitler wrote.
Question: Is it a disease or is it in each of us?
Answer: In every person.
Question: So you can even pull it out of and facilitate it in a person? And push him to the most terrible things?
Answer: Undoubtedly.
Question: So this patriotism was revealed in people who did not expect to be capable of this?
Answer: Sure. We see it directly in their notes, works, letters.
