Armageddon? Are you saying that secularism's rise, and the defense of human rights against Christian claims that discrimination against gays should be allowed, will bring it on?
I don't know what you mean by 'Armageddon?'.
By the last war , I mean that you write about concern for the Christian majority when there is no longer a Christian majority. There is a Christian minority with a secularist majority.
My concern is that the secularist majority will not tolerate Christians values.
I am for religious liberty and respect for all.
In Christian Mythology, the last war would be Armageddon, the war that highlights the end times before the return of Christ.
"Beware of fighting the last war" is a more secular bit of practical advice. With technology changing, if one doesn't change tactics and doctrines to match new capabilities, one can get into big trouble.
Significant disconnect...
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
