throughout the NEW Testament (don't go quoting me any of that "eye for an eye" Old Testament stuff), Jesus consistently and very clearly spoke against violence, preached a nonviolent approach (turn the other cheek), and nowhere in the New Testament is killing or war condoned or approved. The only time violence was used (Peter slicing the centurion's ear) Jesus uses it to show how fruitless violence is (those who live by the sword, die by the sword). Did George Bush, a supposed born again Christian, forget to read those parts of the Bible?? How do you Christians who support the killing of over 50,000 Iraqis justify your support in direct opposition to Jesus' teachings?? How do you sleep at night????
