Assignment:

Both The Mission and Romero (both movies are based on history) examine the question of a just war vs. the use of nonviolence by those who profess to be Christians. They especially ask the question whether or not a priest can engage in warfare. Give at least 5 examples from the movie about what a particular character thought about this question. What is your position on nonviolence vs. just war? Do you think Christians who follow a nonviolent Jesus should (not can, we know they can) engage in warfare? Do you think that Gandhi and Jesus's methods of nonviolent action are the proper response for people of faith or is it possible to be a just warrior and a person of faith?
