They are sheeple, that's why they have a Shepherd. This Shepherd also has sheepdogs: it is our duty to stand between the sheep(le) and the wolves. It is truly an honor to serve. Anyone who thinks our Lord is a pacifist (I came not to bring peace, but a sword!) is an uneducated, double minded so&so who doesn't know his Bible. Our orders are "Occupy till I come...." And so we shall. Christ also said "do not resist evil. OVERCOME evil, by doing good........" We are to overcome evil by doing what is right. "To defend the innocent is to do the work of the Lord...."
