A Thinking Reed

"Man is but a reed, the most feeble thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed" – Blaise Pascal

Christian peace bloggers

I’ve joined a “Christian Peace Bloggers” webring started by Michael Westmoreland-White of the Levellers blog. I think I properly fit into the catergory of “someone who believes war is a very last resort” and “that Christians are commanded to be working for peace so that such a resort doesn’t come.” In other words, I’m not a pacifist, but I definitely hold to a strict version of just war theory and think that war should emphatically not be regarded as a routine policy tool.

The idea behind the blog ring is for members to post something on war & peace about once a week, so hopefully some useful reflections will come out of that commitment.

One response to “Christian peace bloggers”

  1. Welcome Lee. Strict Just War theory folk are definitely welcome. I do encourage JWTers to investigate the practices of Just Peacemaking–so that last resort is truly last. Search JPT or Just Peacemaking on my blog for more info.
