The Warrior's Soul — Episode 5 of 6
CRUSADES AND HOLY WARRIORS
Ethics for Killing Project
OVERVIEW
Look, "crusade" is a word we need to drag out back and bury. In this episode, I’m getting raw and real about the internal fight for the soul, stripping away the "good guys vs. bad guys" nonsense to look at a biblical concept: Holy War. We’re bridging the gap between ancient scripture and modern special operations—from the genocide of the Canaanite campaigns to my own 12 combat deployments, where we had to trade high-explosive "hard knocks" for "soft knocks" just to stop creating more terrorists than we killed. Finally, we’re facing the permanent toll of the battlefield: How do you master the sin crouching at your own door, and how do you carry the mark left on your soul when you realize you can never go back to the person you were before the war?
