This is really the thought process of a Christian? That national interest is the means to justify war? War, i remind you, is the legailzing of murder of another country's citizens.
An honest question to all those here that identify themselves as both a social and neo conservative... those that get behind rick perry, rick santorum, and the likes. I have a hard time rationalizing how one could be a good christain person while also supporting war. Keep in mind that since WWII, 90% of all causalties are civilians.. people like you and me. If there are people on here that fit into this category, I would appreciate some open dialogue on this. Thanks

Read Mt 7:1-6, then Mt 7:21-23.
If you possibly can, read it in the original Greek, it is a lot better. If not, read the most authoritative translation that you can, and then several other translations just to check for any red-herring differences.

The kind of Christians you speak of, grew up admiring and following Moses, not Jesus.

What makes you think they are good Christians? The majority of those who vocally clam to be such devout, great Christians are usually those that follow Christ the least.

Many Fundamentalist/Evangelical Christians support war and join the military so they can feel like they are a warrior for God, fighting the evil infidels and bringing Christian values to the poor parts of the world.

You might want to learn the definition of "Murder" before making claims that are not based on fact.

We are not living in Iran, you might be, but no American troops are there.
OOps, I will camp in the back yard, and blow the door if you don't let me in, to tell you how to think.
