Mahan, U. S. N.
A Paper Read before the Church Congress, Providence, Rhode Island, November 15, 1900 F[ considering my subject, — War from the Christian point of view, — I assume that the test to which the idea of War is to be brought, and by which resort to it is to be justified or condemned, is to be sought in the acts and teaching of the Divine Founder of Christianity, our Lord Jesus Christ, and in the writings of those His immediate followers and Apostles that are accepted by the Christian ...Church as part of the revelation divinely inspired, and to her committed. For this discus- sion I recognize no other standard, however apparently exalted and humane. Such other standard may to some seem higher than that of Christianity, but it is not the Christian standpoint. I admit, of course, that any inferences of my own, drawn from the standards I accept, however con- 98 Some Neglected Aspects of War elusive they may be to myself, are, like all human reasonings, subject to dispute by others ; and that even the general consensus of Christian opinion through long ages, though powerful in cumulative effect, is not to be considered final, for I am not aware of any authoritative utterance of the Church in the matter.
