Conscience in War: Video Testimony from Soldiers

Tim ReidyNovember 04, 2010

This week we have been featuring videos on our home page from the Truth Commission on Conscience in War, held in March in Riverside Church here in New York. The Truth Commission was set up to provide greater protection for moral conscience in war for those in military service. At the March event several soldiers spoke about their experience in war, including Logan Mehl-Laituri, below. You can view the other videos here.

Migration promotes conversion.
I would argue for two axioms. First, Christian mission induces migration, and, conversely, migration fulfills Christian mission. Second, there is a reciprocal cause-and-effect relationship between Christian mission and migration.
