“The End of War” by Paul Chappel

Tonight I read an article in the National Catholic Reporter about a book from a former soldier who has gone from waging war to waging peace. The name of the book is called “THE END OF WAR: How Waging Peace Can Save Humanity, Our Planet, and Our Future” and is by “Captain Paul K. Chappel”. Also today I heard about a new film called “Unmanned: America’s Drone Wars” that can be seem free via the internet starting tomorrow. This book and film both point to a growing awareness in our society that there is something deeply and disturbingly wrong.

Can this new and growing awareness top the decline of the United States Empire? Probably not but it can add to a developing awareness that there needs to be decisive changes in our society and nonviolence is the only way to accomplish this task. Within the cracking shell of the US Empire we can build a new society so when the empire finally does fall we will have a new and refreshed society already in place.

From awareness will hopefully grow resistance and we will finally be able to not fear the ‘powers that be’ and have the courage and strength, like that of a soldier, to wage peace.

Someone once pointed out to me that I stayed one step ahead of where most people are at, looking for the next challenge and action. Perhaps this is true. But I must look to what could be, be it with money from closing churches to eliminating military training to kill at the local Catholic Jesuit University of Marquette University. Seeking and finding hope in the present is the only way I know to .
