Follow the link to the eulogies for Tom Fox, the member of the Christian Peacemaker Team who was killed in Iraq.
“When I allow myself to become angry, I disconnect from God and connect with the evil force that empowers fighting. When I allow myself to become fearful, I disconnect from God and connect with the evil force that encourages flight… If I am not to fight or flee in the face of armed aggression, be it the overt aggression of the army or the subversive aggression of the terrorist, then what am I to do? ‘Stand firm against evil’ seems to be the guidance of Jesus and Gandhi in order to stay connected with God.” - Tom FoxPosted by tripp at April 5, 2006 02:30 PM
