Common Sense Is Not Something Rigid And Stationary, But Is In Continuous Transformation, Becoming Enriched With Scientific Notions And Philosophical Opinions That Have Entered Into Common Circulation. 'common Sense' Is The Folklore Of Philosophy And Always Stands Midway Between Folklore Proper (folklore As It Is Normally Understood) And The Philosophy, Science, And Economics Of The Scientists. Common Sense Creates The Folklore Of The Future, A Relatively Rigidified Phase Of Popular Knowledge In A Given Time And Place.

If You Think About It Seriously, All The Questions About The Soul And The Immortality Of The Soul And Paradise And Hell Are At Bottom Only A Way Of Seeing This Very Simple Fact: That Every Action Of Ours Is Passed On To Others According To Its Value, Of Good Or Evil, It Passes From Father To Son, From One Generation To The Next, In A Perpetual Movement.

From The Moment When A Subordinate Class Becomes Really Independent And Dominant, Calling Into Being A New Type Of State, The Need Arises Concretely, Of Building A New Intellectual And Moral Order, I.e.
