Three comments on the above statement: 1) What would you do if the government wanted to execute all christians for not wearing the mark of the beast? Would you watch your children die? Would you fight back? 2) Do you own an automobile? Thousands of innocent people are killed every year for the _cause_ of rapid transportation. 3) You are completely entitled to your opinion, but in order to convince me, you must present scriptural evidence that God wants us to be pacifistic as you claim.
