“War is mass murder…Do you really believe that Christianity will perish unless it be defended by war? If we do believe that, then we have deliberately passed a vote of no confidence in Christianity. If Christianity needs this kind of defense then there is little that is really divine about it. We must conclude that a faith which needs the defense of warfare is not a faith which even deserves to survive.”
—Rev. William Barclay (1907-1978)
Professor of Divinity and Biblical Criticism, University of Glasgow
