There will be no "Peace Of God" if there is no "Christendom". The amelioration of philosophy by mending empiricist and rationalist halves back into a whole cannot be achieved, even if many or most philosophers wanted to do so (which they do not anyways,) until there is a civilization once more united by a highest institution. I apologize if I am stating trivially true things.
Though it is a compelling world where your appeal is heeded, and perhaps this essay only meant to provide further incentive to the funny mustache man(s) of our era, obviously not somehow fix his problem for him.
As you rightly point out, it is not the point here to talk of Christendom here, this is a strictly philosophical text. The idea of peace of God is put in parallel to the Kantian idea of “perpetual peace”.

Interesting point.
