キリスト教の主流派は（自由のために戦う、自由をもたらす）戦争も自由と正義に敵対する悪党を殺すことも禁じていない

The New Testament acknowledges the just and proper role of civil government in maintaining justice[45]
and punishing evildoers, even to the point of "bearing the sword."[46] One criminal on the cross contrasts
his death as due punishment with Jesus’ death as an innocent man.[47] When Jesus appeared before Pilate,
both Pilate[48] and the crowd[49] recognize the principles of bloodguilt. There is no indication in the
New Testament that it is unjust, immoral, or inappropriate for secular civil governments to execute those
guilty of shedding innocent blood.[50]

Like the Old Testament, the New Testament seems to depict the lawful use of force by soldiers in legitimate
battles as justified.[51] The profession of soldier is used as a metaphor by Paul exhorting the Ephesians to
"put on the full armor of God."[52] Cornelius, the Roman centurion, is portrayed as a righteous and
God-fearing man.[53] Jesus praises the faith of a Roman centurion on the occasion of healing the centurion’s
servant, and states that he has not found such great faith even in Israel.[54] When John the Baptist was
preaching repentance and baptizing penitent sinners in the Jordan river, soldiers came to John and asked
for specific instructions regarding their repentance. John the Baptist did not demand that the soldiers
renounce their profession, instead he exhorted them to be content with their pay.[55]

That great political idea, sanctifying freedom and consecrating it to God, teaching men to treasure the liberties
of others as their own, and to defend them for the love of justice and charity, more than as a claim of right, has
been the soul of what is great and good in the progress of the last two hundred years. The cause of religion, even
under the unregenerate influence of worldly passion, had as much to do as any clear notions of policy in making
this country the foremost of the free. It had been the deepest current in the movement of 1641, and it remained
the strongest motive that survived the reaction of 1660.

このように自由や正義のための戦争は認められているし、悪党や犯罪者を殺すことは広義の自衛権にあたるため何ら問題はない
さらにその悪党や犯罪者が組織を組んでいるのであれば、それを滅ぼすことも認められる

聖職者が弱そうでハト派だから、キリスト教は反撃しないという甘えた考えはひどい誤解であり、一旦聖職者や「平和主義」の
キリスト教徒を攻撃したり殺せば、倍返しでその他のキリスト教徒に滅ぼされる覚悟はした方が良い

日本人の考える家族全体主義・儒教パターリズムは、キリスト教の根本原理である自由の国の国家像に反するため
反キリスト教的な国家と認定される余地はある
