The Strategy of Violence

Dr. Jerry Andrew Taylor

The strategy of violence involves numbers. Jesus said that before a king goes to war he must first calculate the number of soldiers he has (Luke 14.31).

In most cases it is difficult to win a war when one’s army is outnumbered. Christians should not ignore the role that the numbers game is playing in America today. The Census Bureau numbers are showing an increase in minority birthrates in the United States. These numbers are causing many in the majority population to become nervous and concerned. Some think that drastic measures must be taken to combat the rising tide of minority birth-rates and religious diversity in this country lest America loses its original identity as a White Anglo- Saxon Protestant nation.
