Subject: Christ and war |
Bible Note: I, along with many others, would say that character was definately missing in the justification for this war. Did we have to rush the weapons inspectors to the point of not letting them do their job? Was open war the best option available for taking out a regime? Why was planning for post war strategies so poor? But anyway, the issue is not "should Christians protest?" but "why do Christians feel they should support war?" |
