Against your religion? What Bible do you read because in the Old Testiment, there was a lot of wars in there. King David, King Saul, Joshua, I can go on and on and on... War is about of Life.

But, I guess WAR is different that premeditated murder. If you like, I have some good material for you to do research on about this topic for Christians.

welp, i think someone didnt read my comment. Oh well, im not here to debate religion and what not. Think what you will, i really dont care. I just answered it, as to it being killing in any terms. From there you can assume anything you want. Good bye.

I'm a Quaker and it's against my religion. Also the Mennonites and some others.

I believe I would defend myself to the death if I had to. I think the question is could I live with myself afterwards?

Threaten my son, and watch what happens. Other then that, I don't really think I could.

Nope, I think I can´t. It´s againt my ethics and my morals. I doubt I could kill someone to save my life. I just couldn´t end purposefully a human life.

That is not what I chose. I clicked on "only in certain settings (a time of war)", but apparently SH want's me to be a religious pacifist (which is pretty ironic all around).
I hope I never have to prove my ability to kill anyone again.

Under the right circumstances we all can, it's called self preservation. If it comes down to me or my loved ones attacked by someone trying to kill me/them, I'm going to do everything humanly possible to make sure they are the ones that take the dirt nap.

Anyone who says they aren't capable of it (regardless of religion) is either not being honest with themselves or simply doesn't know themselves all that wall.
The potential to kill is in all of us.

I don't think it ends with the death. The aftermath of killing someone, is a truama that would remain with me for the rest of my life, whatever the circumstances. Many of our troops return from battle, and are not the same men that went.
