Either Christ is a liar or war is never necessary, and very properly assuming that Christ told the truth, it follows that the State is without [in the words of Father Macksey] ‘judicial authority to determine when war is necessary,’ because it is never necessary.

A "just war" – if there could be such a thing – would not require conscription. Volunteers would be plentiful.
