Justice, Even in War

While The National Association of Evangelicals is to be commended for signing a declaration against torture, the document does not address the issue of terrorism as justifying America's new terrorist interrogation tactics. If protecting America above all is the highest moral purpose, then many unjust means can be employed to serve that “higher” end; before long the rights of Americans, particularly of comrades in military service, rank higher than the rights of those who are, or may be, threatening us. Now is the time for institutions such as churches, colleges, and seminaries to teach just governance as the foundation of human rights protection
