Seen it, but with the church topic I'm really not that familiar.
You know, I'd see it the other way round: War and struggle actually is the natural state of things. Peace is when you found the lucky gap to get something balanced for a longer time. Most people think peace is the natural state of things, and therefore they scream if you put struggle and obstacles into their way - anything that disturbs their little safe bubble. But from the natural point of view, struggle is the general rule according to which everything works. No life comes without making efforts. You also even have to kill an animal or a plant in order to have something to eat and go on living. And this process keeps on existing in all higher levels that make out "life".
