Er kommt nämlich in den Katzenjammer hinein. Das kann man schon auch wirklich bemerken. Wenn Sie die Theologen heute, wo die Geisteswissenschaft bekannter, aber nicht verdaut wird wir können das insbesondere in der Umgegend von Dornach beobachten, wo sich die Theologen mehr damit befassen -, wenn Sie da die Theologen in dem, was sie sagen, beobachten, so finden Sie: das ist alles bei ihnen im Grunde genommen eine Art von Katzenjammer, in den sie versetzt werden dadurch, daß sie nun Begriffe bekommen sollen, Ideen, Inhalte bekommen sollen für dasjenige, wofür sie nur Rausch haben wollen und das sie nur unmotiviert in die geistige Gliederung der Menschenseele hineinbringen wollen. Sie schrecken zurück vor dem Ernüchtert-werden, das sie deshalb nicht ertragen können, weil sie wissen: da kommt nicht Klarheit für sie heraus, sondern - verzeihen Sie den trivialen Ausdruck - ein brummiger Schädel.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":276,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/166/1916-02-08/p033"}],"english":["GA 166/1916-02-08/p042","GA 166/1916-02-08/p043"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":276,"en_words":247,"ratio":0.89,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","anchors","reader"],"reader_german":["GA 166/1916-02-08/p033"],"reader_part":true},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.98,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":9740,"original_word_count":9892,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Pauline Wehrle","identified_edition":"AP1988","book_title":"Necessity and Freedom","publisher":"Anthroposophic Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA166/English/AP1988/19160208p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
