Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What Are You Going to Do About It?: The Case for Constructive Peace
In the early part of the fourth century Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire. The Cross was used as a military standard and the pious Constantia had the nails with which Jesus had been crucified converted into a helmet for himself and bits for his war-horse. The act was profoundly symbolical. In the words of Dean Milman, the meek and peace ful Jesus had become a God of battle.
