Why Christianity Did Not Prevent the War

By Isaac J Lansing

Book Overview

""Why Christianity Did Not Prevent The War"" is a book written by Isaac J. Lansing in 1918. The book explores the role of Christianity in the First World War and questions why the religion failed to prevent the conflict. Lansing argues that Christianity, with its emphasis on peace and love, should have been a powerful force for preventing war, but instead, it was unable to stop the outbreak of hostilities. The author explores the reasons for this failure, including the influence of nationalism, the power of the military-industrial complex, and the failure of Christian leaders to speak out against war. The book also examines the role of Christianity in the post-war world and offers suggestions for how the religion can be used to prevent future conflicts. Overall, ""Why Christianity Did Not Prevent The War"" is a thought-provoking analysis of the relationship between religion and war and a call to action for Christians to work towards a more peaceful world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
