When a national consciousness and a national government sever roots with Christianity, how are decisions made regarding war?
The entire just war philosophy has been ignored in America for years and years. Once those in power decide on war for the sake of pride, or money, or oil, or status, war cannot be justified.
Preemptive wars cannot be justified. Wars based on unseen forces out of the control of citizens cannot be justified.
When a nation cuts ties with Christian teachings of natural law philosophy and the Ten Commandments, law merely becomes something which is decided by the few.
This is the state of American domestic and foreign policies-laws decided by the few.
I hope people are asking themselves why Obama and Hollande are pushing this war.
Once people stop asking questions and acting on those doubts, the people no longer have a say in anything regarding their rights or the actions of their governments.
Why are these two leaders, and those who support them, pushing war?
The famous Republics created in the 18th century, America and France, are virtually dead as republics.
Thankfully, Great Britain is still holding on to parliamentary democracy-just hanging on....
Citizens must question and fight injustices and false ideologies.
Why are Hollande and Obama wanting this Syrian war?
By the way, it was not the New Deal of FDR which got us out of the Depression, but WWII industry.
