War is wrong (In the result it accomplishes and becayse it is unchristian, he sald. The sermon is as follows: “Much of the difficulty connected | with the moral issues of war is caused by confusion of thought. | War as the use of force, the defense |of onc's family, the killing of & mad dog, Christ cleansing the temple of the money-changers are all judis- criminately confused and the whele lauestion settled for some by u sim- | kill & ple illustration.

Therefore, the whole meth od of modern war must he necessary land right, so runs the familiar argu- |ment. let us ut the outset clear the alr by a definition. What fs war? Many definitions have been of - fered, but there is no one satisfying final and officlal description of war, “I am going to take for tonight as the basis of the argument I have to | |offer a definition which has been {given by Sherwood Eddy in his re- cent book, “The Case Against War. |He defines war as follows: “War is a means of attempling to settle in- |ternational or eivil disputes by armed imilitary forces through the organ.

One |was led to belleve that the practice | of the Germans in Belglum was to | cut oft the hands of bables, but as a | matter of cold fact there is no truth in the story and there are no more handless babjes in Belgium than there are in England or in Ger- | many. Ex-Premier Nit quotes Lioyd |George as having sent in word that he has not been able to trace a sin- gle case of a child’s hand having heen cut off in all Belglum. But war promotes that kind of propa- ganda. If we can make ourselv: “'!mnk that the enemy are ‘swine, ‘huns,’ ‘devils’ and ‘baby killers," we {can belleve that we are rendering | God service by ridding the world of {such demons. But what are the actual facts? There were a few babies on the Lusitania and on sev- eral other ships which were de- {stroyed and some were killed in the |ajr ralds, but at the very hour that we were rousing ourselves to fury |of righteous indignation to make the |® orld safe against these baby killers our allied hunger blockade was kill- ing many many times more bables than the enemy ever had a chance {to ki “The second points I want to make |1s that war is wrong in the resuit |that it accomplishes.
