Arbeit macht frei: - Fredrick Töben

Dedicated to:
John Tuson Bennett,
Christopher J Mayo Steele
and
the memory of Geoff Muirden,
whose four decades of pioneering work
set the Revisionist ball rolling in Australia;
Peter Hartung who has embraced Adelaide Institute’s motto
viam monstrare – showing the way; and
those South Australian men and women who dared
to pioneer a new attitude towards penal servitude.
______________________
A fair minded person believes what he does because he believes firmly it is
the truth and as such is willing to discuss it with any other fair minded one.
He is willing for it to be sifted and tested to the uttermost, for he does not
want to believe what is untrue and he knows that truth will stand any real
tests, and too, the more it is tested, the more it can be seen to be the truth.
He is willing to concede that those who differ from him are sincere until the
opposite is disclosed and this disclosure of insincerity will not be his defeat
in argument. If he is defeated in arguments, he will not try to relieve himself
of his defeat by slandering the opponent, but he will thank him for enabling
him to see his weakness and the faultiness of his belief.
Dr Peeples, 1912
