The current debates among christians on war appear to tell that the politicised Christianity has no place for Christ or the values of the kingdom of God. Power and domination and business are its interest.
The entire world is not a Christian system. Yet the 'we only' christian expect the whole world to follow christian values while they themself downplay them. Evils do exist, they can be overcome only by good. Following a christ's path in dealing with evil is what is expected of Christian. Instead the path of violence and power, a dehumanising evil direction to deal with evil has no gospel logic. So war is a crime, a mortal sin, it cannot be justified.
