Why? Because Marxism, based on materialism, made man the lord of nature, and made the five senses the sole criterion of knowledge. Anything that could notbe seen or touched was rejected as unscientific. But materialism cannot save man from his present crisis of faith or from the laws of nature, and what is more, it cannot isolate him from nature. Never again will the people of Russia waste their natural resources to prove a point.   ReferencesBrodin, Y. and Kuylenstiema, J 1992.
