He has simply taken his stand, as many Catholics have {also done, on the platform that in matters of private conscience “we must obey God rather than man.” The great schism of Martin Luther's time does not divide the churches when a fundamental principle like this is at stake. In Niemoeller's imprisonment Hitler has at least point clear. Nazism is itself a religion, which attempts by force to command the citizen's whole allegiance, It necessarily intolerant of the Protestant and Catholic faiths as it is of the Jewish faith. It is necessarily at war with the ethical sys- tem which took its rise in the Hebrew prophets and cached one of its loftiest expressions in the Sermon on the Mount.

The whole story of Martin Niemoeller would take long to teil. Niemoelier a submarine commander during the World War, then tried to farm, did manual labor while studying for the ministry. He was an early member of the Nazi party, breaking with Hitler when the Fuehrer attempted, through Bishop Mueller, to drum up the Lutheran Church to support the Nazi revolution. When Muecller, as Reich Bishop, ordered the churches into line Niemoeller defied the order.
