On August 15, 1871, Pike told Mazzini that after World War Three is ended,
those who aspire to undisputed world domination will provoke the greatest social
cataclysm the world has ever known.
We quote his own written words (taken from
the letter catalogued in the British Museum Library, London, Eng.):
"We shall unleash the Nihilists and Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable
social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of
absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then
everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of
revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude,
disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will be from that moment without
compass (direction), anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its
adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure
doctrine of Lucifer brought finally out in the public view, a manifestation which will
result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of
Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time."
