"People use guns but, in a sense, guns use people too. When we have the technology for violence easily to hand, our choices are skewed and we are more vulnerable to being manipulated into violent action."

Adding animism to your other heresies, eh what? Small wonder the C of E continues to shrink into nothingness.

I understand your point about animism. What i’ve found interesting is that as a concealed carrier, having a weapon on me has the exact opposite effect. If someone were to insult my wife when i was unarmed I would be more likely to get in a fight. If armed I am simply looking for an escape strategy because I know if I am attacked I may be forced to defend myself.
