THEY PRAISE PEACE BUT GLORIFYING WAR. (WORLD WAR II) Some History for you to know about.....

FRANKFURT on MAIN, Germany, September 24. The German PROTESTANT and Catholic churches now publish in their magazines extensive exhortations which explains the duties of the soldier who fights in defense of their country and warn the German soldier to fight with the same resolution of San Miguel for a German victory and a just peace.

In Catholic newspapers front-page appears the figure of the Archangel brandishing a sword of war and shifting a dragon with a sacred spear.

In the Catholic dioceses in the West and to the South of Germany, the clergy, headed by bishops and archbishops, is actively busy working for the refugees who have been evacuated from districts that remain on the western border. Many convents have been transformed into hospitals and both monks and nuns are working under the direction of the Red Cross.

The Catholic Bishops of Germany have issued a pastoral letter that says:
"At this crucial hour, we urge our Catholic troops to fulfill their obligation in obedience to the Führer and be willing to sacrifice all personal interest.

"We call to all the faithful so that you join in ardent prayer, so that Divine Providence of the Almighty God leads this war to a blessed success and peace to our fatherland and nation."

In addition, all bishops have sent a special message to their respective dioceses, including the Bishop of Rottenburg in Württemberg, who had been expelled last year from his diocese for having refused to vote in a national election call socialist.

Cardinal Archbishop Bertram, head of the German episcopal congregation, issued a patriotic message similar to his faithful, urging them to "everyone who trusts in God Almighty is strong heart". Awake 1985, Dec. 22, Page 5.
