No one hates war like a soldier hates war.

If there is a God, the phrase that must disgust him is - holy war.

War is not the answer, because only love can conquer hate.

War springs from the love and loyalty which should be offered to God being applied to some God substitute, one of the most dangerous being nationalism.

God hates violence. He has ordained that all men fairly possess their property, not seize it.

One who loves God sees everything in relation to God. Therefore, their love flows spontaneously toward everyone, at all times, everywhere. They even love those who wish them harm. If you love God, you can't hate anything or anyone. If the love one offers is met with hate, it doesn't die; rather, it manifests in the form.

No one perfectly loves God who does not perfectly love some of his creatures.

This actual question of 'Why does God allow war?' is not considered or raised as such in the Bible at all.

If you love God, you can't hate anything or anyone. If the love one offers is met with hate, it doesn't die, rather it manifests in the form of compassion. That is universal love. It is not just a sentiment. It cannot be manifested merely by a shift in mental disposition. It can only come from inner cleaning, an inner awakening.
