The document titled "The Pacifist Crusade" discusses what it will take to eliminate profanity (in the Christian sense) and achieve godly perfection. It emphasizes the power of God and the call for Christians to strive for perfection, highlighting the importance of equality and accountability within the church. The document also explores the concept of equality, contrasting legal equality with equality in the eyes of God, and discusses the challenges of achieving peace in a world where evil exists. It argues that true peace cannot be based on tolerance for evil and that pacifism requires a clear line of demarcation to avoid perpetual retreat and eventual surrender to evil.
The document further delves into the nature of peace, distinguishing it from passivity and emphasizing that peace requires the elimination of conflict and the pursuit of equality. It critiques the role of the state as an agent of war and division and underscores the need for pacifists to recognize their role in seeking equality and peace. The document concludes by asserting that peace is the ultimate principle and cannot be compromised for the sake of equality, as this will only lead to further conflict and oppression.
