On War & Peace - pt.1

Drawing from Quaker Ways (1933) by A. Ruth Fry:

The idea of war -- calculated barbarity and maximum destruction -- is absolutely incompatible with man's positive relation to each other and to God. War is the extreme expression of a spirit which negates the Christ-idea in life. No compulsion by force can effect inner change.
