Christianity once clearly taught that a king who kills innocents and
squanders the people's money is endangering his immortal soul. By raising
this prospect, bishops and priests and theologians have restrained the war-
like behavior of princes from the 4th century on. But what if the prince
believes that he is assured of salvation because of his own choice,
regardless of what the church says? We have here an entirely different
constellation of incentives at work. Might Bush believe there is no eternal
price to pay for killing thousands, even millions, in a good cause, since
there is nothing he could do to endanger his immortal soul?
