Earlier tonight my wife made, what I feel, is a very valid observation.
We are led to believe that humans are warlike creatures, and we need to get closer to God. However, have you considered that this all started with a war in heaven between God and Lucifer?
God made us, war is in our nature.
My response was along the lines of : Yes, but consider what you are willing to fight for
I did a thought experiment once. What if there was no war? It didn’t work. Some people need killing.
