A Christian View of War

I read this great article in USA TODAY last week entitled "A Christian view of war." It is a part of a religion series that the paper runs every Monday. I think the subtitle by the author, Oliver "Buzz" Thomas, says it all: What would Jesus do in Iraq? He'd offer compassion, he'd feed the hungry, he'd even pray for the enemies. What he'd really do is give American Christians--Republicans and Democrats alike--something to think about. Are we as Christians ready to get serious about following the teachings of Jesus?
