I agree, of course, about the necessary right to be a pacifist. But was thinking today about how archaic, in a way, the the underlying assumptions of the pacifist movement have become. They are really rooted in a notion of hand to hand combat, of individuals appealing one to the other's conscience, etc etc....

This is at the bottom of a communication I just today from a pacifist organization.

Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

The Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.
Former member,
The Fellowship of Reconciliation


Unfortunately, one had better not rely on love, either.
