Q: So every Christian is called to be a pacifist?

A: Yes, absolutely.

Q: So how do you respond to people who say that’s unrealistic?

A: Try lifelong monogamous fidelity in marriage. Do you think that’s realistic? Yet we do it. I’m not terribly cowed by the charge of being unrealistic.

cameronr:

I wish I could accurately describe the kind of anger and disappointment I’m feeling towards the media as this Fort Hood shooting unfolds. The Vancouver Sun, for instance, mentioned that the shooter was Muslim in the 4th sentence of an article while waiting for the 20th PARAGRAPH to mention he was being tormented by his peers and was about to be deployed to Iraq. I’m obviously not making excuses for this henious violence, however I can’t help but think that the two latter factors are so much more relevant in shaping our understanding of what happened there today.

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

—Woodrow T. Wilson
