For Austrian priest Father Gaston Ritter the time is now 1938. Five years have passed since the 1933 first edition. Austria is now part of the Third Reich. The culture war has seemingly been won by Germany, but Fr. Ritter sees fit to update and enlarge his work in order to better inform Catholic Germans and others as to the ongoing plans against both Germany and Western Civilization that would culminate in the Second World War in only one more year. His message resonates in our so-called "post-Christian" era of 2022 with the steady diminishment of Christian civilization and the seeming triumph of those who have never produced a civilization at all due to catchwords hurled at the creators of Western Civilization and the learned cowardice of their children. Yet the Faith lives, the pendulum has swung and we are now on the cusp of a renewal of Christian and Western culture and tradition with a hardening of the children of the creators into a force which will once again take the world for Christ and their children. This work was originally published in Graz, Austria in 1933 by the Catholic Priest Gaston Ritter. It received the Nihil Obstat and the Imprimatur; nevertheless in our age it would be considered controversial even though the Church has stated that there is nothing therein against the Catholic Faith.
