 In response, Crainic accused Rădulescu-Motru of displaying "a Masonic aversion towards Orthodoxy", and of not having grasped the sense of spirituality (to the statement ""Romanianism" is a spirituality coming to justify a realist order", he replied "Any man knows that the word spirituality has a strictly religious meaning").Later, he defined Rădulescu-Motru's thought as "militant philosophical atheism", and, in a "Gândirea" article of 1937, referred to him as a "philosophic simpleton ["găgăuţ"]".As early as April 1933, Crainic wrote articles welcoming Adolf Hitler's rise to power in Germany, and began support for corporatist goals.
