笔谤别蝉别苍迟别谤:听Most Rev. Robert W. McElroy
Catholic teaching on war and peace embodies the effort to bring faith and ethical reflection to bear upon the most searing questions that lead nations into violent conflict: Is war ever justified? What are its limits in an age of weapons of mass destruction? When is a nation obliged to end a war? In an America which is embroiled in the longest war in its history, Bishop McElroy proposes that the Catholic tradition provides rich聽wisdom and challenge those who seek to forge a pathway of justice for our nation in an age of terror.
This lecture is part of The Church in the 21st聽Century Center鈥檚 Episcopal Visitor Program, which engages members of the Catholic hierarchy in conversations about the Church while experiencing a Jesuit, Catholic university.聽
