Should a Jewish Carpenter have to die for you?

Ooooh, good one. Exactly the point. I'm reminded of an old WWII poster, showing a line of men in WWII uniform marching past a rank of Valley Forge Revolutionary soldiers; the caption reads "AMERICANS ALWAYS FIGHT FOR FREEDOM". Such is the case in Iraq...Muslim or not.

Yes, if the cause of war is just (which in this case I believe it is.) Christ died for the ungodly. Every human being is made in the image of God.

But not every human being is a child of God. You are only a child of God if you become a Christian.

John 1:12 - "Yet to all who receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God..."

Ephesians 1:4-5 - "In love he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ."

So, spiritually speaking, my "brothers and sisters" are felolow Christians.

You said it! The fact is that Americans are dying to protect America. The best protection is a foreign buffer state which is no threat at all.

Well worth repeating.
