If we follow Jesus Christ, neither by example nor by teaching will he lead us to war or violence. "Non-violence can always find support in Jesus Christ, the use of violence in an emergency can find support in reason." (Hans Kung) Or should we revise Kung to read "find support in rationalization?" And how do we define, in terms of Jesus, "emergency?" Surely unjust crucifixion constituted an emergency.
