SOI THEOLQGIGAX/CIfJRCH HISTORICAL MBftHINO OF THE GERMAN CHURCH STRUGGLE, 1933-1915* The general problematic which I have to introduce, the Church Struggle with totalitarian ideologies and their systei®, is a serious one from evdry point of view. It has been such for some sixty years at least, and it is of intense concern in certain areas of th© USA and to some other countries today. When I wrote the book called The German Phoenix, published ten years ago - a discussion of Nazi persecution of the churches, of the struggle of the various centers of church responsibility in the Third Reich - the reviews were generally friendly. They spoke about the German tendency to authoritarianism and the German tendency to exaggerate law and order at the expense of liberty$ and of course they thought it was useful to write about a uniquely German disaster. When in Jferch of this year we held an International Conference on the History of the Church Struggle and the Holocaus© at Wayne State University, a conference which attracted some 160 scholars and churchmen from various Canadian, US, and German universities, the sub-theme was, flahftt can America learn?" That is, it is becoming apparent to an increasing number of theologians, church historians, political scientists, and also pastors, that the disease, the pathological condition, which has led to these frightful challenges to Christian faith as well as to civic liberty is not a uniquely German problem. It is part of the problematic of, at least, the Morth Atlantic community. (When one puts it that way he remembers at once ^Lecture I of the 1970 latheran Brotherhood Lectures, Waterloo Lutheran Seminary, 9/15/70j by Prof. Franklin H. Littell of Temple University.
