[That which is based on it — as a conception, as a theoretical view —, only destroys the human organism, the transfer to the outer world, it becomes destruction.] Today you only need to see how people are creating something so devastating in Eastern Europe today, that it would almost have to lead to the downfall of civilization, if it lasts as it is in Russia. How these people, who are doing this, are acting in good faith and believe that in Marxism and the like they are only extending modern science to social life. But it becomes the death of social life. It must be a different science, a science that does not arise from the human mind alone, but from the human being as a whole. It is a science that does not arise merely from a contemplation of the physical world and from there forms its methods, but that is drawn from the human-spiritual being itself, as spiritual science is. If one studies this spiritual science, if one attempts to build up, as I have attempted — however contestable it may be in detail — in these two books, 'The Core Points of the Social Question' or 'In Implementation of the Threefold Social Organism', if one attempts to arrive at a social view from this spiritual science, then it is a thoroughly constructive one. This then proves itself in social thinking, which can truly lead the human being to the human being, as a life-giving treasure.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Wie diese Leute, die das tun, in gutem Glauben handeln und meinen, dass sie im Marxismus und dergleichen nur die moderne Wissenschaftlichkeit ausdehnen auf das soziale Leben. Sie wird aber zum Tode des sozialen Lebens. Eine andere Wissenschaft muss es sein, eine Wissenschaft, die nicht allein aus dem menschlichen Kopfe, die aus dem ganzen Menschen hervorgeht, die also nicht bloß aus einer Betrachtung der physischen Welt hervorgeht, und von da aus ihre Methoden bildet, sondern die aus dem menschlich-geistigen Wesen selber hervorgeholt wird, wie die Geisteswissenschaft es ist. Durchdringt man sich mit dieser Geisteswissenschaft, versucht man aufzubauen, wie ich es versucht habe — mag es im Einzelnen so anfechtbar sein, wie es will - in diesen beiden Büchern «Die Kernpunkte der sozialen Frage» oder «In Ausführung der Dreigliederung des sozialen Organismus», versucht man aus dieser Geisteswissenschaft heraus eine soziale Anschauung zu holen, so ist sie eine durchaus aufbauende.
