[Hank Kerchief]

My frind, I studied the Bible for years, have read it in both Greek (NT), and (haltingly), Hebrew, and have studied most of the thologians, from the early church Fathers to Finney.

I am not a pacifist, and am surprised a Christian (perhaps not) so loosely accuses people of things without evidence.

I do not really care what you think, but just want to make it clear I’m not opposed to necessary war, but regard a love of war tantamount to a love of wholesale murder, which is what it is.

I...regard a love of war tantamount to a love of wholesale murder, which is what it is.

That's a straw man.

I am not a pacifist, and am surprised a Christian (perhaps not) so loosely accuses people of things without evidence.

Did I do that? Quote me.

Naw, I didn't call you a pacifist. Your selected Biblical citations, on the other hand, are the typical pacifist explanation for God's commands to Israel to make war.

Your original statement was "I regard war as an evil thing. No good has ever come from any war." In view of the fact that God commanded Israel to make war, you'll have to do better than merely citing your years of study.
