Christ didn't have a flag.

  I can definitely see where Christianity teaches a "love" that transcends nation even whilst nations get bogged down in the trappings of superiority. 

  And how it is that people feel compelled to attach beliefs to the flag.  Why we glorify certain aspects of previous warring.  And why there is much debate about correct path for nation. 

  Because all earthly "power" is a slippery slope, Christian-based people constantly check each other on motivation and meaning.  And that's something that can get lost in a Cyber-based world.  It can get really twisted in a political-based world.  And, in a weaponized world, phew, there can be no need at all for diversity of thought to war as the answer to all problems.

  I also understand campaign and victory mode as a mindset.  But, is it precluding Jesus Christ? 

  The moral issues around warring to win are many.  We see a lot of us already in this territory of thought-process.  And we're human beings with machinery, not algo-rhythms that just get tweaked and funneled.  

  I think threatening to rush Greenland for it's potential treasure is not the same kind of gathering the masses for the defense of nationhood that the Greatest Generation experienced in the second World War.  While the Allied Forces as opposed to the Axis Forces need to figure out how to function as a "unit" with pomp and circumstance, it doesn't serve the purpose of survival as a species to coerce people into warmode.
