War and Spirit

In a spiritual world, everything is connected.

When political powers give authority to a powerful spirit, their power enhances its power. So if a nation engages in violent conflict and war, a spirit of violence will also be released at home.

If a nation sets out to be the preeminent military power in the world, enforcing its dominance with violent military force, it should not be surprised if gun violence explodes in its towns, schools and homes.

If a nation like New Zealand backs war as the solution to disputes between nations, and engages in a war by training participants to use powerful artillery, it should not be surprised if a violent spirit takes hold at home and releases violence in society (and its parliament).
