Tao Stoic 104

The Master said: "The by far largest international organisation, the United

Nations, is anti-organised just because it is international."

"How is that Master?"

"The simplest form of organisation, of Structure-, Ordening-, in behaviour is Naturally: 'Standardisation'. It is by bits of standardised behaviour (or thought, which is the same thing), that people swear to be of some church, creed, race, trade, nation etc. If you wanted, for instance to organise Belgium with its three languages, it would simply suffice to enforce them to one standard of language, say the world-language. Not unification, but integration! The United Nations, (exactly like its forerunner the League of Nations), with its armies of interpreters, its legions of translators, simply lack this most simple criterion for sane organisation: 'Standard Speak'. Trying to organise without the basic criterion for organisation, is madness, insanity, is utter stupidity, meaning that: 'one knows what one should do, yet one does the opposite'. To organise several societies, is to integrate them into a whole, into an ORDER, i.e. sanity."
