in the same exchange we have Luke 22:36 which is a command to arm yerself vs the many evil predators in the world...muzzies are that kind of evil, kinda like terminators w/o the combat chassis and ability to learn or reason...
`Indeed some parts of the body of the church are destined to be martyrs, others are called to fight as well as witness...
