Objective: To understand that
all of us, soldiers and civilians alike, are caught in a web of militarism that
has permeated our culture and the structures in which we live, and to explore
together what faithfulness to Christ means in our context.
Opening
exercises: Take the
militarism quiz (PDF), and invite the whole group to provide answers to
each question before revealing the answers. If technology is not available, ask
the questions orally, using the paper version of the quiz. Answers are found here.
Do the corporate military complex exercise, inviting people to identify,
via show of hands, the defense contractors they patronize.
