World War I would have come to an end a lot sooner and there would have been far fewer casualties had France returned to her Catholic Christian roots which had been put aside over a century before. As Prussia was the real aggressor, France could have won the victory in the trench warfare with God's help before America intervened. Instead, the world ended up with a shaky armistice whose terms were set by cynical politicians at Versailles in 1918. Instead of a just settlement, the cards were stacked against Austria, Hungary and Germany setting the stage for World War II. Because the leaders of France including Georges Clemenceau refused to acknowledge their Christian heritage and offer a just solution, they abrogated their responsibilities as God allowed in order to bring about a greater good.
France is often criticized in America for remaining neutral or helping Germany during World War II. Actually, France had no other choice because the French fashioned the peace settlement which prevented a just peace and insured further war. World War II was part of the chastisement for rejecting God.
Today it is no accident that Nicolas Sarkosy who is more European than French is leading France within the European Union. The EU continues to officially ignore their Christian heritage in their Constitution. Will Sarkosy advance Europe toward its true Christian destiny as a world power, or cause its continual regression and break up into pieces under an officially neutral regime?
