Excerpt from The Gospel of the Kingdom, Vol. 7: January, 1915
Thus lives were lost as the direct result of nineteen wars, an average of lives to a war. And wars are growing more costly in life. The Russo Japanese war, a comparatively short one, cost lives - more than twice the average loss by war through the century. The recent Balkan wars, lasting practically but a few months, are said to have cost more than lives. The savagery of civilization is progressing. The present war will undoubtedly be the most costly in life ever fought. Who shall count the indirect human cost? How many men have carried through life a living death as the result of wars? How many have been crippled disabled, incapacitated? How many Widows, how many orphans, has war created! How many homes have been destroyed; how many families blasted! Let those count them for their beads who worship militarism and glorify it.
