whatever things are of serious concern, whatever things are righteous, whatever things are chaste, whatever things are lovable, whatever things are well-spoken of, whatever virtue there is and whatever praiseworthy thing there is, continue considering these things." - Philippians 4:8

No Words for this Title - Re:Threat of War (A Comment I Wrote Under a Video...)
While many people are here admiring weapons, I wonder how many watched
an ad that preceded this. In case you missed it, it was of a lovely
Korean-American artist; who, during her masters' studies, traveled back
to Korea to learn the 1000-year art of natural paper-making, also used
for creating unique objects of art. She was shown, too, peacefully playing her
violin out-of-doors. Overall, she seems like a very soulful, serene
person - who takes a joy in the beautiful wonders of creation. In contrast, I think it is pretty obvious, how much of the world is. With all
of the disconnect to what is most important in life (including true
godliness); increasing disrespect for and confusion over the value of
life; and a world largely trained-to and loving violence (even for
entertainment, as with violent video games); it is all too easy to be
mindless, apathetic, conscienceless, foolish, and even wicked - over
bringing death, pain, horror, grief, and unimaginable suffering, injury,
and loss onto INNOCENT, non-fighting men, women, elderly, and children.
I think it would be good to show images of the reality of human carnage,
agony, terror, tears, screams, and grief of innocent persons - over the
ripped, torn, bloodied, and partly blown off bodies of their innocent
loved ones - ALONG WITH EACH THREATENED SHINY WEAPON OF WAR, from any
one. Are people "proud of their troops"? I'm ashamed of my fellow human
beings.
