"That the world has only a physical significance without moral significance constitutes the greatest and the most fatal error, the fundamental error, the true perversity of the thought, and it is well at bottom also what faith has personalized under the name of the Antichrist. "
Arthur Schopenhauer, Parerga and Paralipomena (Chapter VIII. On ethics)
