A Message from Ellis Sandoz:

When a number of Voegelin enthusiasts get together, good things can happen! Today VoegelinView begins its life as an internet journal of Voegelin thought and conversation. With a little luck and a lot of hard work it may succeed. Success will be measured in a number of ways: if young people hear about Eric Voegelin through this journal, if new scholarly thought is offered here, if more books based on Voegelin's thought are brought to public attention, and if the existing community of Voegelin scholars is able to exchange ideas and offer mutual help more easily, then this enterprise will be a success. My best wishes to all. Good luck!

"So you, son of man, I have made a watchman for the house of Israel; whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me. If I say to the wicked, O wicked man, you shall surely die, and you do not speak to warn the wicked to turn from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. But if you warn the wicked to turn from his way, and he does not turn from his way; he shall die in his iniquity, but you will have saved your life."
Ezekiel, chapter 33, verses 7-9

Quoted in Hitler and the Germans, CW 31, p 201.
