"What would Jesus do, if he were alive today?" asks Doug Lapp, in the current issue of SojoMail, answering somebody who would call God's wrath down upon the current enemy-of-the-week as perceived by Bush & Co. "Would he choose to live a comfortable life as a citizen of the world's most powerful country? Would he join the masses by holding up this country's financial dominance as a clear sign of God's blessing? Would he put his faith in building and maintaining military supremacy in order to secure his own peace and prosperity? I think not. There might well be valid geopolitical reasons for waging war in Iraq. However, to claim God's blessing on this action is overreaching."
