During WWII Christians killed Christians.

What was the Christian idea or concept at the time that did not lead these soldiers to throw down their arms and walk away from doing so?

Christian are to be of the same spiritual family, superseding national formation....but what was the passage, word or reformed theology that didn't stop them dead in their tracks from killing other Christians?

Any help in the right direction is appreciated.

I wish this weren't a dupe because it's a good question. Please pardon my schizophrenic nature for voting to close and voting up at the same time. – David Stratton Nov 26 '12 at 13:02

Maybe you could be more specific about which "Christians" you mean, or are we to assume the general Axis vs. Allies? – kurosch Nov 26 '12 at 15:44
Sorry, but if you want this to be a question, it will need some refining. First, you appear to be blaming Reformed Theology for not stopping the war. If that's the premise for your question, you're going to need to do the homework and come up with a reference for it and make this a question about Reformed Theology. Otherwise, it looks like a pretense at getting around the "all Christianity is too broad" issue. – Caleb♦ Nov 26 '12 at 16:38
There are more things that also need clarifying. Why the double negative question? "What was the thing that didn't do nothing" isn't an answerable question. What are you trying to learn about existing Christianity here or are you trying to make a point about what you think it should be or draw attention to a problem issue? Think about where you are trying to go with this then if it's a question actually develop it a little bit so people can do some research and come up with an answer. – Caleb♦ Nov 26 '12 at 16:40

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.
