Pacifism

Pacifism is defined as the opposition to war or violence as a means of settling disputes or gaining advantage.



We should all be pacifists, ultimately. 

If your country is being attacked, then you may not be a pacifist and you would have a reason to oppose the attackers. You react. But you do not blow up innocent passers-by in a vain attempt at making a political statement, as is happening in Iraq and Afghanistan. 



Below is an image of dead Iraqis.  This happens every day.  Iraqis do this one to the other.




Below is a photo of dead Afghanis.  This happens every day.  Afghanis do this one to the other. 


God, our Father, save us from our politicians. Save us from the war-mongers and the fanatics.  Please do not abandon us. Help us to achieve peace and harmony in this world. Amen
