For instance, he admits that there once existed a continent between Europe and America called ‘Atlantis,’ inhabited by the ancient Atlanteans, a prehistoric humanity. Then he asks the hypothetical question—I am not quoting verbatim—how is it possible that today, when we have a proper physiology and a proper psychology, anyone could conceive the idea of dividing man's being in such a way! Of course in Anthroposophy one does not do it in the way it can be done with a chair, but he thinks so. This philosopher—in his own way he is perfectly conscientious—was honestly puzzled how anyone could make such a division, or could hold such a primitive conception as compared with the knowledge a modern philosopher can command.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"III.

So zum Beispiel gibt er zu, daß es einstmals eine Atlantis gegeben hat, einen Kontinent zwischen Europa und Amerika, und daß da die alten Atlantier, daß da eine Vormenschheit gelebt hat. Nun findet sich in jenem Aufsatze von ihm die Hypothese — nicht genau mit denselben Worten ausgedrückt -: Wie kommt denn jemand dazu, heute noch, wo es nun doch eine ordentliche Physiologie, eine ordentliche Psychologie gibt, den Menschen so einzuteilen? — Natürlich teilt man ihn in der Anthroposophie nicht wie einen Sessel ein, aber er glaubt das. Das entstand für diesen in seiner Art ja ganz gewissenhaften Philosophen als eine Rätselfrage: Wie kommt einer dazu, solch eine Einteilung zu machen? Das ist ja etwas so Primitives gegenüber dem, was der heutige Philosoph hat! -— Nun, der heutige Philosoph hat zwar nicht gerade besonders viel vom Gesichtspunkt der Wahrheit, aber er denkt, er habe ganz besonders viel.
