Neumann and Germany's Moral Fall

Germany may not know it; but she is facing the same problem with the soldier Neumann that she faced in the sixteenth century with the monk Luther. It is not a matter of men, but of principles which make or break men, which make or break empires, depending on relationship and attitude to these principles. No "degradation" which Germany can visit will permanently injure Neumann, and from his "fall" before Germany even to the death there is resurrection in Christ; but how is it with Germany?
