Self defense is in line with God's teachings.

Bull****.

He told us to render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's (taxes, soldiers,
self defense, etc) and unto God that which is God's. Heeheehee

Mark 12:13-17

Later they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to Jesus to catch him in his
words. They came to him and said, "Teacher, we know you are a man of integrity.
You aren't swayed by men, because you pay no attention to who they are; but you
teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it right to pay taxes to
Caesar or not? Should we pay or shouldn't we?"

But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. "Why are you trying to trap me?" he asked.
"Bring me a denarius and let me look at it." They brought the coin, and he asked
them, "Whose portrait is this? And whose inscription?"

"Caesar's," they replied.

Then Jesus said to them, "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is
God's."

And they were amazed at him.

So do you count yourself as a Pharisee or with Herod?

He told us that self defense is proper.
