Excerpt from this article:
"Focusing his anger directly on Russian President Vladimir Putin, Shawn asked his guest 'should he or Russian officials be tried, or put up at the International Criminal Court for war crimes?' As the US talks of breaking off ceasefire negotiations, mulls the possibility of directly attacking Syrian government forces, and threatens asymmetric attacks on Russia, the Russian government has warned the US against taking direct action against the Syrian government. 'If the US launches a direct aggression against Damascus and the Syrian army, it will lead to terrible, tectonic shifts not only on the territory of this country but also in the region in general,' said Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova."

Our Lord Jesus says:
"For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" - Matthew 16:26
The prospect of a nuclear war - even a limited one, if such a thing is even possible - is so mind-numbing that you have to forgive people if they tell jokes about it. The reality is just too hard to deal with. So I Googled "Nuclear War Jokes" just to see what came up:
"Meteor hits Russia. Anybody seen Optimus Prime?" (OK, maybe you have to be a Transformer fan to get that joke. I'm not, but I have a friend who is!)
"The release of atom power has changed everything
except our way of thinking...the solution to this problem lies in the
heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a
watchmaker."
From Flexing with Monty
Lillith:
"In time, after the great nuclear meltdown, we will revert to the slime
of our earliest ancestors, but what is most frightening is that we, the
women of the world, will have to lay eggs in a marsh." (You have to believe in evolution, which I don't, to get this joke)Of course, 2 of my favorite nuclear war jokes are actually songs:
We'll All Go Together When We Go, by Tom Lehrer
Christmas at Ground Zero, by Weird Al Yankovic
So, when you hear about a possible nuclear War, you have a couple of choices. You can put on some pajamas, get a cup of cocoa, and watch a good movie (I recommend Blast from the Past). Or you could listen to the following 2 sermons by Dr. David P. Murray:
I Saw the Dead
Serious Preaching in a Comedy Culture
