I like that the Pope is an advocate for peace. 
I think that's certainly one of his roles. 
On the other hand, how can you say that God is never on the side of those who wield the sword? 
Was God on the side of the Americans who liberated France from the Nazis? 
Was God on the side of the Americans who liberated Holocaust camps and liberated those innocent people from, you know, those who had survived the Holocaust? 
I I I certainly think the answer is yes. 
And I agree. Jesus Christ does not I agree. 
Jesus Christ certainly does not support genocide. 
Whoever yelled that out from the dark, he certainly does not. 
I think that's pretty easy. I think that's a a pretty easy principle. 
>> Okay. So So here's a guy. Let me just say this. 
Th This is a guy No, no, no, no, no, no, no. 
First of all, random dude who's shouting, can I finish my point and then I'll respond to what you just shouted? 
Is that okay? 
>> Okay. 
>> Yeah. Can we give him one second to to answer this? 
>> So, let me just finish this question on the Pope and then I want to respond to what this guy said. 
So, number one, the when when the when the Pope says that God is never on the side of those who wield the sword, there is the thousand year more than a thousand-y year tradition of just war theory. 
Okay. 
Now, we can of course have disagreements about whether this or that conflict is just. 
But I think that it's important in the same way that it's important for the vice president of the United States to be careful when I talk about matters of public policy. 
I think it's very very important for the pope to be careful 
when he talks about matters of theology. 
And I think that one of these issues here is that there has been is again, 
hey, random dude screaming, I told you I'd respond to your point. I just want to respond to this question
