What line is it taking? All my placements so far have acknowledged the nature of warfare and the consequences of it - and not denying that it is not what God wants for his people. This accords with my ideals. The fine line has been well and truly trodden. I've got the Act of Remembrance tomorrow - with all the attendant "dangers" in that! Help!
