War means destruction and death, so it is never preferable. But in a fallen world in which evil exists, war is sometimes inevitable and necessary. The motive for war can be debated. How war is conducted can be debated, but there will never be a world without war until the Prince of Peace returns. Peace is also an interesting concept. Some say, "Peace at any cost." Really, at any cost? No, life and liberty and the future of our children sometimes means we must go to war. Today we live in a time when certain radical religious ideologies impose a kind of death cult upon adherents, ones who are willing and as often ones who are not. Fanatic extremists do not simply want to eliminate their declared enemies. In their false religion, they do not care and in fact welcome death for themselves. This calculus along with nuclear weapons makes the world even more dangerous than it used to be. War may be required to protect freedom on earth.
