Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Christianity and the War "Once to every man and nation comes the moment to decide, In the strife of Truth with Falsehood, for the good or evil side; Then it is the brave man chooses, while the coward stands aside." Lowell This great war represents not only a trial of material strength between nations, but also a clash of rival ideals. We are engaged in a moral and in a spiritual warfare as well as in a material conflict. Let us consider what are the rival aspirations that have come into violent collision. We will commence with those of the Prussian military oligarchy, ideals which have been popularized by such men as General Fredrich von Bernhardi. General von Bernhardi´s moral code is not original, it has been derived from another, and it is with this source of his ideals that we are primarily con cerned. But let us deal first of all with Bernhardi´s ideals, that is to say with those of the Potsdam militarists. He and they advocate aggressive militarisin, inspired by the precepts that might is right and that expediency always must and ought to take precedence when self-interest clashes with solemn promises or with such obligations as those of justice and mercy.
