Quote: Wednesday said: That depends on whether or not you view this war as defense, and, of course, your views of Christian doctrine.
How exactly do you mean "view of the Christian doctrine". Is that a quip referring to the martyrs and the soldiers in Biblical history or something?
In hopes of staving off a war (no pun intended) I think it meant little more than it depends on your interpretation of doctrine. Some people believe in a just war theory some believe in absolute passifism.
Basically. I'm not even sure how my statement could have been interpreted as a quip.
