I think if you look really deep it has nothing to do with "religion" as much as believing that God created all, and Christ his only begotten son is the key to our salvation.

Not a complicated thing really.....I think people make it complicated. God doesn't like war, but as a way to the means he was not a whimp about it either. Look at King David....Look at Kings in general.


I really like this comment "not being a wimp" does that mean you have to fight back. You need to be ready to do battle?
what about Jesus? he didn't fight back. He had every weapon at his beck and call, all the armies of heaven and earth, he could have waged a great war on those Romans that were controlling his country, torturing him, insulting him, defiling his home,his name,his country, threating his mother his friends and family. He did nothing! He LITERALLY turned the other cheek. Did that make Jesus a Whimp?


Jesus Christ was not sent to fight.....He was sent to teach. Read the Bible and get your answers they are all there.





The answer is there and Jesus said in his own words Turn the other cheek. This is what he tells his followers to do. Then when it comes time he does just that. In a way that no one can ignore. So that even people who can mess up how the Bible should be read they cannot miss what he did. He did not fight.

Read the Bible and get your answerers there.

Really 'feral'?!?!?

So now the ENDS justify the MEANS??!?

And that comes straight from YOUR god?!?!?!

What should we make of Ghandi, Mandela and Luther King, the pacific 'fighters', the 'non-violent' defendors of what is just and true, were they Satan's diciples!?!?!? 'god's lost SHEEPS!?!?!? or should I say 'god's lost WHIMPS?!?!?

Or did they transcend 'false prophets', had the courage to forego the fake, and trust instead the authentic imageless source of true spirit?!?!?

Like Jesus maybe, they didn't need a mateial god to worship, or a book in order to believe in 'god'. They had the inspiring courage to trust the spirit within, trust a DIRECT CONNECTION.

Anyhow, IMO the 'ends justify the means' dictum is absolutely and categorically rooted in our primitive human instinct for survival through control and domination.

Any book that says otherwise, can't be from god.


P.S.: I've just asked 'god' to clarify this question 'feral', and she said to me that she wanted no part of it, and that you were on your own with that one!!!

I'll give you her number, if you would rather hear it from 'god' herself!!!
