It is called "the peanut butter manifesto"--a four-page call to arms from a senior executive of Yahoo Inc., declaring that the Internet company is spreading itself too thin and must define priorities and radically reorganize its management structure.

a "call to arms", while being a phrase or figure of speech, is actually quite literal. it is a "call" or command to "arms", weapons. it is a call to war, or in its less literal meaning, a call to action or some sort, not always violent.

Everybody feels a calling of some sort to follow a 2,000 year old religion. When you make a decision it is simply called being rational or using your common sense. A lot of atheists will talk of their "decision" to become (or embrace) atheism. This is because atheism is rooted in the known and the factual while religions are based upon the unknown and the abstract. The calling that so many people describe is simply the alluring tug of the unknown pulling them in.

Many of us find our respective Pagan religion through a direct experience with our gods. Many of us also describe the experience as "coming home". Because that is what it feels like - like finding a place you've always known and feel completely comfortable and like you can be yourself. When I found Wicca, I knew it was the right religion for me because it was as if someone had gotten inside my brain, written down everything I had always believed, and then called it Wicca. I was also called by my gods because they came to me instead of the other way around.

call to arms means to get ready for the fight....it is a war term but can be applied to any situation where you need to be armed and ready to go at a moments notice.

well JohnRingo is not to far off
'call to arms' can literally mean 'get your guns' as in a the militia of the American revolution
usually 'call to arms' means 'we are being challenged, we need DECISIVE action, quickly and united'
