There's actually quite a bit of variation about this.
That's why you have a whole bunch of Catholics, Protestants, and many other branches, heading off to war, while you've got Mennonites and Quakers (don't know if I've got the specific sects correct) staying at home as conscientious objectors.

Some sects believe that under certain circumstances war is justifiable, others do not.
