Abstract

The Church and War

Frank, Glenn | June 4, 1924 issue

add to cart   close window

The central message of Christianity is not to be found in any social, economic, or political platform, but Protestantism is doomed if it keeps discreetly silent or indulges in merely amiable generalities about the moral issues of politics and industry, of war and peace. The author is not a delegate to the conference, and, perhaps, have no right to inject himself into the discussion. But the author should feel guilty of either intellectual blindness or intellectual cowardice if he attempted to discuss the present status of Protestantism and said nothing on the crucial matter of the church and its relation to war.
