Paladin D Posted May 7, 2007 Author Share Posted May 7, 2007 [quote name='Revprodeji' post='1266411' date='May 6 2007, 11:03 PM']you cant say "baptists believe..." they dont agree. Paladin, Special Opps... My issue is that even if the church does not judge it as sin, my issue is that we lose cognative control. There is a time when you will be told to shoot another human because of something you do not understand. There is a farmer in nebraska who is willing to fly half way around the world to take the life of someone he has never met and will be told to kill him. This is not justified fighting, there is a strong religious aspect to that. I believe there is a fine line between protecting our family, and pledging loyality to a goverment that should only go to our church and family. Like I said..a fine line To the the nature of the talk, if you want to switch to PM I will understand. GET THE BOOK!!!![/quote] Sent you a PM.

Anabaptists also don't believe in war, and are pacafist by nature. That doesn't mean that they dont believe in helping the oppressed thou, that's an over statement.[/quote] The government also does not believe in offering their sons and daughters for the purpose of war.

[quote]The government also does not believe in offering their sons and daughters for the purpose of war.[/quote] The anabaptist belief and the government's belief are at odds with each other, that's an undeniable truth.
