Machiavelli wrote, 'Hence it comes about that all armed prophets have been victorious, and all unarmed prophets have been destroyed.'
But Jesus was unarmed
And The Buddha was unarmed!
And John Lennon and George Harrison were unarmed!
I dare you to come up with that many armed prophets that have been successful!
And the Prophet Muhammed was only armed after the people of Medina asked him to be their king! It was the state of Medina that was armed; Muhammed triumphed in Medina unarmed! (And the Prophet Muhammed was only armed as the King of Medina, not as a Prophet; and he was as good a King as history has yet seen! someone has to be King ! (or President!))
God loves you! Remember the example of Jesus and The Buddha, and look to the light!
Sincerely,
David S. Annderson
