War: Child Soldiers


Here is an interview with a young girl, who became a soldier by force....this is the logical results of pursuing war....soon, everyone has to kill. Since murdering one another doesn't seem to provoke to much Christian sympathy or moral outrage...maybe, child rape, drug induced brainwashing of our children to fight our battles....will cut through the culture wide religious apathy.

Here is an another interview with a former child soldier and author of his experience. The comments he shares at the end about the only way out is through Forgiveness...is a profound retelling of the power of the gospel that Jesus told His church to take to all the world. Seeing videos like these just enforces my desire to be a "peace maker"...the idea that to do that (according to one perspective on war) is to put another gun in this kids hand when he or she is "of age" sounds maniacal to me.

A Long Way Gone


Most convicting remark....

"You watch Rambo films as a way to just keep you in this madness....."
