war and peace?!

I am beginning to write my 8 page paper on my response to George W. Bush's address to Congress and to the American people on September 20, 2001.  I am detailing how he justified the war and if I agree with what is going on in Afghanistan (not Iraq, just Afghanistan)

but here is the problem...

i decided to read this book  


















and it totally threw everything that I ever believed about war out the window.  

Romans 12:21 - "Do not be overcome by evil, instead overcome evil with good." 
Psalm 11:15 - "The Lord examines the righteous, but the wicked and those who love violence his soul hates."  

I believe the love of Christians and the love of our AMAZING God can change the hearts of anyone!  Why don't we let Him try?

    yeah God can do alot because he is God, but sometimes war is necessary because we live in an imperfect world with major issues & even though God can do alot because he's God that doesnt mean that he does, cuz if he did then the world would be perfect & it defintley isnt only heaven is that way.

    So in that case "war" happens in our world. im not saying im down w/ people getting killed but if its 1 civilians life for a country than thats a sacrifice we have to make for a country , because we live in an imperect world.
