[MuttTheHoople]

ONe of the many things that World War One destroyed was the Christian faith of millions. Many, believe that "God was on their side", went off to war only to realize that sometimes God doesn't take sides.

Millions lost their faith, resulting in a "lost generation" of men who either became rootless and self-destructive, or became radicalized and bitter.

The lost generation is what Gertrude Stein’s mechanic called the men of WWI. She had driven an ambulance in the war.
