With everything going on in Ukraine, Fr. Dom and James thought it appropriate to expand on the Church's teaching on Just War Theory. What is it? Does it even matter? Is there such thing as a "just war?"
Join us as we dive deeper into St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas' teachings on the foundation of the theory. The Church has guidelines that all should try and follow to avoid war and also once you are already in war.
This is a fascinating episode that is applicable to what is going on in the world today. Don't miss it!
