In our times, civilisation encourages various lies and people's belief in them. Many truths, seemingly eternal, have been shaken. Since they have been shaken, the truth has become more questionable... New phenomena have entered into the very basic elements of the world order: the way of transmitting life, the distinction between sexes, the definition of marriage, the definition of death, the uniqueness of our heart and other organs. Political and economic decisions are often difficult to understand. There has been a decline in authority and recognition of the importance of science. Perhaps
the search for support in this situation leads to viewing one's own nation as great and sinless, as well as to the desire to make it even greater, and even to the idea of punishing those who speak ill of it. In current and future affairs, people often believe in populist promises that are appealing but not necessarily true.
