This is not the first time that this Pope has inappropriately condemned weapons manufacturers.
This is not Christian theology. It is “Merchants of Death” conspiracy theory. This theory claims that it is arms manufacturers who push for and cause wars. It minimizes conflicts between nations and people who have ideological and religious differences, or who are competing for limited resources such as territory, food, raw materials, or for dominance. The theory, like many conspiracy theories, is popular among people who want someone to blame for wars, and an “easy fix” to stop wars. Movies have been made with this theme. |

| Excellent synopsis. I was going to leave a comment, but I believe the article says it better than I could. |

| There are a lot of good and faithful Catholics but the organization they belong to is evil. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
