I am a former USMC infantryman (1977-1991) who left the Marines as a #consciencious_objector.
I will be the first to admit that religion, when subservient to the state, is a major tool in war and oppression. For the Christian church it does not matter if you are High Church, Evangelical or Anabaptist, they all are complicit.
But I still hold to the Way of Jesus, as did the Berrigans.
