Kat Grant 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @katdene.bsky.social · 15/04/2026Also to be totally clear for folks Just War Theory in Catholicism is a lot more complicated than “the war that I think is good is good” It is heavily debated if literally any war has ever even met and stayed within the bounds of Just War Theory (staying within the bounds is the bigger issue) 100
Kat Grant 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ @katdene.bsky.social · 15/04/2026JD Vance trying to lecture the literal Pope on theology is just the exaggerated version of the flood of Protestant converts to Catholicism who never actually deconstructed their belief that they need to “save” Catholics and instead pasted into radtradism as the only valid form of practice 020
