Perhaps it does not matter that the "word of God" is a persons support of a war but the underlying principle that leads them to the support of the war. Both sides of a conflict can use the "word of God" as support for war, but what we really need is to take the next step and dig a bit deeper to understand the principles leading to the support of the war. So, if one group believes that God wants a certain other groups of people removed from the face of the earth or converted, and then another group believes that God wants people to live in freedom and that the strong is obligated to protect the weak - perhaps even those that don't believe there is a God could make a determination on which group is right and which group wrong if the two groups are engaged in a war.
