Sinopsis
Excerpt from The German Obsession
Dr. Preuss, the theologian, has written The Ger man people are the spiritual, the religious parallel of the people of Israel, they are 'the true Israel be gotten of the spirit.' And again, It was the hid den meaning of God that He made Israel the fore runner of the Messiah, and in the same way He has, by His hidden intent, designated the German peo ple to be His successor. What diabolical sacrilege! What insufferable national conceit and psycholog ical viciousness! But to prove that the sentiment is general, one has only to consult the German press, clerical and state utterances and Reichstag delib erations. Francke said, German craving for truth and German strength of faith working along Bib lical paths have attained to the true faith, the pure religiousness The Germans are the very nearest to the Lord and may claim that they have 'continued His Word.'

Excerpt from The German Obsession
Kuhn acknowledges the perversion of German ambitions from the more spiritual ideals of Fichte, when he says, History has made us Germans the inheritors of the Napoleonic idea. Treitschke tells us The Bible distinctly says that the ruler shall rule by the sword, and A nation's military efficiency is the exact coefficient of a nation's idealism. Bern hardi makes the bold statement, deplorably true in practice but absolutely false in the idealistic sense in which it is used, that There never was a religion which was more combative than Christianity. This may be true of the German brand of Christianity, but there are many people in the world who found their conception of Christianity on the teachings of Christ, and who worship the Universal God of Christ, the Heavenly Father of all men, and not a tribal or national god.
Germany has: abandoned Christianity for a pagan tribal god, and Odin, the mad and raging one, has come back to his own; Valhalla with its boastfulness, banquets and brawls has displaced the heaven of peace and righteousness, and only German heroes, slain in physical combat, will be transported by the Valkyries to the life beyond.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the historical evolution of German nationalism, particularly the growth of the bellicose ideology that motivated the German people in the years leading up to the first World War. The author argues that the German obsession with war and violence can be traced back to the influence of radical thinkers such as Max Stirner and Friedrich Nietzsche, who glorified the concept of the "superman" and advocated the use of force to achieve national goals. The book provides a detailed analysis of the political and social factors that contributed to the rise of German nationalism in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and explores the ways in which this ideology was used to justify German aggression and atrocities during the First World War. Ultimately, the book offers a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked nationalism and the importance of fostering international understanding and cooperation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
