ecu,I would never consider you an enemy. I hope you would never view me as one.??? Bless you there are many ways of translating the word 'enemy' and i love that about GOD that GOD suggests we love our enemies whoever they are cos GOD well just loves them too! whoever they are and whatever state or circumstance they find themselves in... i like that GOD also suggests we check our own eyes our view to see if we ain't just a teeny bit colouring our own view by stuff that's clouding our vision whether its behaviour and tactics to avoid examining ourselves or being completely open and honest with GOD before we go wading in and accusing others of all sorts or deceiving ourselves... in other words GOD already sees that we can indeed be accusers of oursleves and deceivers of ourselves.... the embarrasing thing is we can at times be the last folks to notice! Love is a cloudless issue where GOD is concerned! You know we have been with you in every war since our confederation and before. Forgive me if i don't quite remembere that one.... You had our total and absolute support when you killed Argentinians to regain a few wind swept bunch of rocks in the south Atlantic. i found that one rather distastefulWe were bombing Iraq together during the first gulf war.ah now that one i do remember it was my first taste of war where having found the previous one a bit distatsteful this one offended me greatly i am not suggesting Sadam Hussein was an angel by any measure .. but he was clever enough to offer the carrot of Palestine which the west shockingly and completely ignored .... nil points to the west in my view.... i went into a deep shock We died and killed Japanese right along beside you when we were trying to defend Hong Kong etc, etc. i don't recall that one either and i ain't interested in killin no japanese either War unfortunately has to be fought and won you see i don't agree with that as a principle i don't see that you make friends with your enemy by killing him i find that war mongering even just war is just not JESUSand the only way to do this is to kill and bring the enemy to it's knees. Canada, the US and yes the UK is in a war, a long war. Blood will be shed and lots of it. Do I wish it? Absolutely not, but I'm no fool. Nice talk and best wishes is weakness to our enemy. Sorry the Power of the GOSPEL is far more Amazing and far more Powerful and far more AuthoritySadly there is no one converting these terrorists with your pacifist message. I don't do passivism very well i'm afraid .... Jesus is even worse! the lost opportunity of the GOSPEL is what GOD CAN DOMy aunt (my adopted family) told me about how my great grandfather and his brothers would remain awake all night with loaded rifles right after the American civil war. The Irish finians wanted to liberate us fron the grips of the evil UK. We weren't going to go for that. We shot some and then the US government made those goons go back to their homes.i really am not entirely sure i understand where that is going
