That one should have been a miscarriage.

 

 

 

Perhaps with a little compassion we could reframe the blitzkrieg, the invasion of Russia, the holocaust and total war as a cry for help?

Valid question.  Regretfully, I don't have that much compassion.  

 

In my mind, for your perspective to work out we would have to go back to prior to WWI.

blitzkrieg  ... its a German name but an Englishman's concept  .   Gen. G. F. C. Fuller , he developed it for the  British , but, not being at war at the time they didnt want to 'buy' it .  So he sold it to the Germans in peace time.

 

An unusual fellow Fuller ; he did paintings like these;

Something very ironic about that - a Brit invents the dastardly tactics of the Hun.

The man was evil and he did evil things, but who is to say what the future may hold? The ravages of the 20th century might have ultimately prevented a future atrocity of much larger scale. I do not presume to know...

I wonder who was born, just now?

Some "born again Christians", I'm sure.

Sunday I was out and about and got into a discussion with a Southern Baptist.  We disagreed on almost everything we talked about.

Reminded me of a funny situation here ;  we had a very religious 'born again' Christian couple here with a little boy . They did the full immersion  baptism thing in the river in town .One day, we are down the river , everyone is going in except their little boy ... no way he was going in the river ... his parents asked him why and he said

 

" Jesus will get me . "

 

:D
