AGGRESSIVE NATIONALISM.
"A new aggressive spirit of nationalism has taken possession of the Old World at any rate, and it is possessed by a new secular and pagan optimism which is Christianity's^ greatest menace to-day I deny that this new paganism derives from its figureheads, Hitler Mussolini and Stalin. It comes from man's own devaluation of hira self, manifested in a growingly felt need of men to subject them selves uneonditionally to some authority, a tremendou submission tc the colleCtivity and its leadef, who ever that is. This is what has produced the dictator ships. It is a syraptora of spiritual resignation and a fatigue, but i is also a depreeiation of huraan nature and is entirely tptfiign to the spirit of the Gpspel."=-Prp|essor Aryik Runestamj
