Excerpt from Christianity and the War
To supplant or be supplanted is the essence of life,' says Goethe, and the strong life gains the upper hand. The law of the stronger holds good every where. Those forms survive which are able to procure themselves the most favourable conditions of life, and to assert themselves in the universal economy of Nature. The weaker succumb.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book evaluates the contrasting ideals of Christianity and Prussian militarism as embodied by the Potsdam oligarchy, in the context of the First World War. The author examines the Nietzschean ideology that influenced German militarists, contrasting it with the teachings of Jesus Christ. The book explores how the German military machine operates on Nietzsche's principles of 'might is right' and 'expediency always takes precedence,' as demonstrated in the atrocities committed in Belgium. Countering this, the author presents a contrasting view of Christian ideals, emphasizing gentleness, love, humility, and the defense of the weak. The book concludes by asserting that, despite the challenges of war, Christian values are essential for a just and peaceful world, a conviction reinforced by the heroic efforts of Allied soldiers.
