For Christian pacifists to live, they must live in some civil order. Civil order is made possible by coercion and violence. Pacifists therefore rely for life on what they renounce.
Since they are unwilling to participate in what is necessary for civil order, they are parasitic on the actions of others and on actions they consider evil.
Furthermore, in their taking and lack of giving vis-a-vis civil order, they actively undermine the order that permits people to live and live well.
Only in our modern situation, in which order and material abundance seems to be secure, can the pacifist morality gain any measure of approval. In normal conditions, in which scarcity requires actions of necessity, pacifism is shown to be morally deficient and harmful to life.
