Pacifism.
The overwhelming majority of people, no matter where they sit in terms of culture, religion, and politics, see total nonviolence as a naive position.
But it’s among my most deeply held beliefs.
I think a person can be a pacifist, I don’t think a country can
I think it’s fair to say that, for a person to be consistent in their pacifism, they probably also need to adopt:
Or some combination of the two, as was the case for the Diggers.
Everyone on the planet adopting religious anarchism is a lofty goal to be sure.
I don’t recall saying that “everyone on the planet” should or could adopt any kind of belief.
Pacifism isn’t aimed at victory.
The point about a county not being able to be pacifist the way that an individual can be is the same reason that the requirements proposed would require universal adoption. The aim of pacifism is irrelevant when it’s the target.
I can see that. It is my firm belief that sometimes, under very strict circumstances, violence is justified because it’s necessary. But refusing to take part in it is a valid position to have.
For example, nobody can force you to take voilent action to save a third party, in the same way nobody can force you to pull the lever in a trolley problem.
