Just war theory has its place, but is “the wrong starting point,” Cardinal Cupich said. The first question we should ask is not, “Can this war be justified?” but rather, “What does the Gospel demand of us now? What does it mean, concretely, to be peacemakers?”

Pope Leo going to Lampedusa on the 250th anniversary of America’s founding shows “his priority is to reach out to those… who are marginalized,” says Cardinal Blase Cupich. Being with migrants and refugees “is a very Catholic thing to do, but also a very American thing to do.”

“A majority of Catholics voted for [Trump],” says Cardinal Blase Cupich, but he tells me, “I’m hearing, however, from a lot of people that they didn’t vote for the indiscriminate mass deportation of people that we experienced here in Chicago and throughout the United States.”

Absurd and inhuman violence is spreading ferociously through the sacred places of the Christian East, profaned by the blasphemy of war and the brutality of business, with no regard for people’s lives, which are considered at most collateral damage of self-interest. But no gain can be worth the life of the weakest, children, or families. No cause can justify the shedding of innocent blood.
