(LaPresse) «Mi piace anche quando c’è disaccordo. Mi piace quando il Papa commenta questioni di immigrazione, mi piace quando il Papa parla di aborto, mi piace quando il Papa affronta temi di guerra e pace, perché penso che, quantomeno, inviti a una conversazione. Ci sono certamente cose che il Papa ha detto negli ultimi mesi con cui non sono d’accordo». Lo ha detto il vicepresidente americano JD Vance durante un’intervista con Turning Point Usa in Georgia.«Da un lato, ancora una volta, mi piace che il Papa sia un sostenitore della pace. Penso che questo sia certamente uno dei suoi ruoli», ha detto Vance. «Dall’altro, come si può dire che Dio non sia mai dalla parte di chi impugna la spada? Dio era dalla parte degli americani che liberarono la Francia dai nazisti? Dio era dalla parte degli americani che liberarono i campi dell’Olocausto e salvarono quelle persone innocenti da coloro che avevano perpetrato l’Olocausto? Io penso decisamente di sì», ha spiegato Vance. «Così come è importante che il vicepresidente degli Stati Uniti sia cauto quando parla di questioni di politica pubblica, allo stesso modo sia molto, molto importante che il Papa sia cauto quando parla di questioni teologiche».

00:00On the one hand, again, I like that the Pope is an advocate for peace. I think that's certainly one
00:06of his roles. On the other hand, how can you say that God is never on the side of those
00:11who wield the sword? Was God on the side of the Americans who liberated France from the Nazis? Was God
00:19on the side of the Americans who liberated Holocaust camps and liberated those innocent people from those who had survived
00:26the Holocaust?
00:27I certainly think the answer is yes. And I agree. Jesus Christ does not. I agree. Jesus Christ certainly does
00:35not support genocide. Whoever yelled that out from the dark, he certainly does not. I think that's pretty easy. I
00:42think that's a pretty easy principle.
00:47Okay, so here's a guy. Let me just say this. This is a guy. No, no, no, no, no, no,
00:53no, no, no, no, no. First of all, random dude who's shouting. Can I finish my point and then I'll
00:58respond to what you just shouted? Is that okay?
01:01Okay, can we give him one second to answer this?
01:04So let me just finish this question on the Pope and then I want to respond to what this guy
01:07said. So number one, when the Pope says that God is never on the side of those who wield the
01:16sword, there is a thousand year, more than a thousand year tradition of just war theory.
01:21Okay. Now we can, of course, have disagreements about whether this or that conflict is just, but I think that
01:27it's important in the same way that it's important for the vice president United States to be careful when I
01:32talk about matters of public policy.
01:33I think it's very, very important for the Pope to be careful when he talks about matters of theology. And
01:39I think that one of these issues here is that there has been, is again, hey, random dude screaming. I
01:46told you I'd respond to your point. I just want to respond to this question first.
01:50But I think one of the issues here is that if you're going to opine on matters of theology, you've
01:56got to be careful. You've got to make sure it's anchored in the truth. And that's one of the things
02:00that I try to do. And it's certainly something I would expect from the clergy, whether they're Catholic or Protestant.
