Overwhelming, these Germans. Astounding life. Who could have such energy and determination?
The Japanese for one. There are amoral aspects of character which are essential for the viability of any organization. Neither the Mafia or a church can be effective without devotion, self-denial, loyalty, discipline, perseverance, industriousness, wisdom in strategy, logistics, etc., which are increasingly missing today in the West. Reading of a polar explorer Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton Incredible Voyage "Endurance" you wonder if we could find such men today as regards such aspects of character. (Which i come short in.)
And which great Christian missionaries exampled, and it is when such amoral aspects of character are coupled with high ideals that they are used for good, in contrast to the Germans and Japanese in WW2.
