[QUOTE="strathyboy, post: 225075, member: 538"] Yes, all the verses you say are great. But the major question that must be posed is whether or not these verses apply only to individuals interacting with other individuals, or to governments interacting with other governments. I do not believe that all of these verses can be applicable to international politics. But if we insist upon using your logic, allow me to quote the following: 2 Peter 2:10 - "But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities." Apparently it is evil to "despise government", so you should stop now. And just to point out one inconsistency in the verses you gave: "If possible, on your part, live at peace with everyone. " What if it is not possible? [/QUOTE]
