"Do you believe human life is inherently valuable? Unfortunately, in the secularized age of state-sanctioned euthanasia and abortion-on-demand, many are losing faith in the simple value of human life. To the disillusioned, human beings are a cosmic accident whose intrinsic value is worth no more than other animals. "The Death of Humanity" explores our culture's declining respect for the sanctity of human life, drawing on philosophy and h ..."

Delving more deeply into the question of Hitler's religious faith than any researcher to ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-230-61807-7, ISBN: 0-230-61807-3

ISBN-13: 978-0-230-62398-9, ISBN: 0-230-62398-0

"Though some historians point to tactical and pragmatic considerations behind Hitler's decision to attack, most concede that Hitler's Lebensraum philosophy played a crucial role in the decision-making process. In his private monologs Hitler clearly interpreted the Eastern campaign as a struggle for living space. In September 1941, as German armies advanced through Soviet territory, Hitler told his colleagues that the real dividing l ..."
