Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This primer on war and the Christian conscience begins in an imaginary college classroom as students react to news that the draft has been reinstated. ""Why cant I finish college?"" asks one student. ""Why do I have to go?"" These urgent and personal questions offer the entry to a clear and comprehensive outline of the basic Christian responses to the problem of war. As Fahey shows, the Christian tradition has supplied a variety of answers, including pacifism, just war teaching, the ethic of ""total war,"" and the vision of a ""world community."" In the face of these different approaches, how are we to decide which one is right? And more basically, how does one go about forming ones personal conscience? For all who ponder these moral challenges--whether as young people facing the question of military service, or as counselors, chaplains, or teachers--this book offers an essential and practical guide.

This book was released on 2017-02-26 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peace, War and the Christian Conscience St. Ambrose (397) had made some adaptations of these principles to Christian thought, but St. Augus tine (430) elaborated them in fuller detail. Augustine held that Christian perfection was not possible in this world and, consequently, that peace was not possible during man's earthly pilgrimage. He also believed that one could be a Christian and kill his enemies because the destruction of the enemy's body might actually benefit his soul. In fact, hetaught that only a man who loved his enemy might kill him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
