They're teaching everyone that God is all sunshine and rainbows, so people can't reconcile his justness

I am beyond pissed that it was that easy tbh it shouldnt be but all these liberal prots and romans and orthodox I am not even sure I how i feel about them right now'

@󠀂 󠀂 Is it murder if they're guilty though?

@TheImperator important question

It is murder even if they are guilty if they haven't been tried by some sort of court.

That's why the Church had the Inquisition, not the Assassination.

As much as some people get them confused.

Political assassins = extra-judicial killing = sinful

The only time I believe political assassinations would be justified if the rule of law has been positively shattered and we are living in anarchy.

Can’t be extra-judicial is there is no judiciary.

What if the Judiciary is untrustworthy?

Then I would challenge that person to a duel.

If I killed him, it wouldn't be murder, seeing as how he was also trying to kill me.

isn't duelling forbidden by the Church ?

I'd have to look that up.

Dueling is illegal in most nation-states too if I'm not mistaken

We're talking about a scenario where the state is in anarchy and/or the judiciary is untrustworthy.

Set up your own judiciary

:v

That's an option, too.

If it's an anarchy then arm yourself and your family and maybe friendly families, block off sections of your neighborhood and set up an autonomous temporary government

Lay down the law and enforce it

How does the Catholic Church view the American Revolution?

Was it justified

No

Natural law is a thing too.

I know that "legalism" is basically a meme now, but saying that killing someone can only be justified if they're tried by a court first, is basically actual legalism. Especially if the people who commit such crimes are the ones that control the courts in the first place.

I'm sorry, but I will never admit that murder is justified.

it's not only justified if they're tried etc

since there is the principle of self-defense

other than that, it has always been like this

What’s everyone’s thoughts on Christian Identity
