This image brought to remembrance the 100 year anniversary of the end of the War To End All Wars.
I read the testimony of a Brit once that all across the countryside, you'd have towns were an entire generation was wiped out by that war.
This isn't just a post about remembrance, but of the lessons we can learn from the aftermath. The result of this wasn't just the shocking loss of young life, but a generation of old maids never to be married. While Europeans and others in other times embraced polygamy to deal with it, this time we did not.
And as is the wont of women who can't get a man, they look to the government to support them. Thus did feminism expand even further. Thus do we see the viral stage of Britain's current multi-generational single mother crisis.
How much better would our situation be today had that generation simply embraced God's form of marriage?
How much senseless loss of life would have been avoided had the leadership embraced the Christmas truce in '14 instead of suppressing it? Not just in that war, but in avoiding the preconditions that lead to a bigger war with a bigger death toll twenty years after.
A war which saw significant social engineering as women were pushed into the workforce; sowing the seeds of independence and feminism. Which resulted in the transformation of our economy from a rural agrarian one to an urban industrial one. And the resultant fracturing of community, embrace of idle consumerism, and ultimately the sexual revolution and divorce epidemics.
