Re: Evil and Violence

I can't search on Plain News because the site it paywalled. But the two articles you cited on Sudan are from 2014 and 2017 so have nothing to do with the current crisis and war that started April 2023: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Sudan_(2023%E2%80%93present) ...

Re: Evil and Violence

Right now at this very moment, tens of thousands are being killed in Sudan and there are something like 6.5 million displaced refugees. Yet there is not one peep about that on this forum or frankly in Anabaptist circles. Why is that? Once again, Ken, you view ...
