N2  - The pacifist movement had become so strong within Protestantism that many of its most influential leaders experienced frustration and bafflement at the outbreak of war. There is much less disposition than in 1917 to interpret the war as a religious crusade. A deepened spiritual mood is evidenced, particularly in the armed forces. Depletion of lay leadership is widespread. Rapidly growing defense communities have outrun parish resources and pointed up a serious lack of religious co-operation at the community level.<p />
