A Faithful Response to the War

Here's what we know. First, our reasons for going to war in Iraq were almost entirely based on fabrications and fantasies. There were no weapons of mass destruction, there was no connection between Saddam Hussein and the 9/11 attacks, and there was no threat of Iraq acquiring nuclear weapons.
That Saddam was a bad man is beyond doubt, but we cannot make it our practice to wage war against every despotic ruler that comes along. The bottom line here is this war did not even come close to meeting the criteria for a Just War.

A Faithful Response to the War is one of the best of Jim Evan's columns. I have never met this Baptist minister ... but I am certainly looking forward to the day when I do! Read this article and see what you think.
