PAGAN GODS
Von Ludendorff Wants to Convert Germany "RENOUNCE CHRISTIANITY'” I (United PA. — By Telegraph — Copyright) | (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) j Reed. 1.16 p.m. BERLIN, Wed. General Erich von Ludendorff, who with von Hindenberg shared the supreme command of the German armies in France from 1916 to 1918, has completed arrangements for a missionary campaign in which he and his wife will tour all over Germany calling on Germans to renounce Christianity and to return to the worship of the ancient Pagan gods. The campaign opens on January 26. In an address to the Tannenberg League at Plauen, Saxony, von Ludendorff was confident of gaining many converts. Frau Ludendorff has published a book full of references to mythology and to Pagan German goddesses and other hermit deities. “In this hour of national need the recognition of the sanctity of our race and the sanctity of our racial gods is once more awakened,” she writes. “Nothing can prevent the Germans from returning to the worship of the gods of their fathers.” Von Ludendorff will lead an attack on “Jews, Jesuits, Freemasons and other infidels.”
