What do I have to do with war?

Question

I am a Christian who lives in a country in Latin America, what do I have to do with the Middle Eastern War? War is caused by the God of Christians. I think you are generalizing with that statement.

I think you should be more exact........and find the root of the true problem here.

Answer 1

Their is but One God.

This One God is Love.

War is created by selfishness.

Selfishness is a trait of Humanity

Answer 2

Over the past months, the White House has convened a series of off-the-record meetings about its policies in the Middle East with leaders of Christians United for Israel (CUFI), a newly formed political organization that tells its members that supporting Israel's expansionist policies is "a biblical imperative." CUFI's Washington lobbyist, David Brog, told journalist Max Blumenthal of The Nation magazine that during the meetings, CUFI representatives pressed White House officials to adopt a more confrontational posture toward Iran, refuse aid to the Palestinians and give Israel a free hand as it ramped up its military conflict with Hezbollah.

Some have allowed ideological authorities to dismiss the idea of a savior whose messages are of love, compassion and forgiveness and promote instead the idea of a savior whose return in a second coming will be as a warrior fighting in the end times to achieve final victory against an evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth in a great war to end all wars known as Armageddon. Many conservative ideological authorities have become war mongers. They self righteously believe they will be raptured to Heaven before the Armageddon they have helped orchestrate unfolds upon those "left behind". The reality that I believe will unfold is many will suffer a global catastrophic blow to their survival in a war orchestrated by a mercenary plutocratic predatory few for profit and gain. A mercenary plutocratic predatory few will retreat to an underworld of under ground cities and bunkers and survive to reemerge when conditions permit to take possession of new territory and repopulate the surface of the Earth.

Answer 3

Well said.

Whoever said that "war is caused by the God of Christians" is mistaken.

War is the result of human sinfulness.

Answer 4

War is caused by states, which may be driven by religion. The war in Iraq was caused by Bush partly for religious reasons, the war in Israel/Lebanon was caused by terrorists partly for religious reasons.

Christianity and Islam are culpable int these wars, but that doesn't mean every Christian and every Muslim is, only those who enable the wars by supporting them are culpable.
