He forgot hiw mom told him one early morning to get out of bed. He gave her sass, so she told him, “I brought you into this world and I can take you out.” From that day forward Francis has always been a mommy’s boy.

One might suspect that Pius XII’s silence on Hiroshima resulted from his understanding that Truman had no good options open to him in August 1945 and that he,Truman,had chosen the least repugnant.

Truman choose the option which would save the most lives—one million American casualties(dead and wounded) and over five million dead Japanese had we physically invaded Japan.

What a fool.
It’s a statement of strength, not a derogatory comment on mothers. Quite the opposite, as everyone knows there is no fury like a mother’s.

Will he object to the word paternalism being used as a negative thing?This putz of a pope will object to categorizing things in male or female terms only. He will demand we recognize all those other gender-fluid terms, too, such as transgender, etc.
This putz of a pope is 'of this world'.

The MOAB is not a gas-based FAE. It uses conventional explosives with aluminum powder.

Not only do I think you're correct, but your assessment is borne out by Pope Pius XII's test that he laid out in the 1950s/which I posted. Indeed, the early Saints up to many of those in modern times, have spoken of the "just war" and that men of goodwill have a duty to stand up to evil, even if it means death to others.
While not directly tied to war, there was an outstanding pro-2nd Amendment essay in the early 1990s called A Nation of Cowards. In that essay, an 18th century sermon was quoted, stating:
"He that suffers his life to be taken from him by one that hath no authority for that purpose, when he might preserve it by defense, incurs the Guilt of self murder since God hath enjoined him to seek the continuance of his life, and Nature itself teaches every creature to defend itself."
I know there are several in the Church who believe strongly that life is worth defending, and who are not upset at things like 'mother' or even 'Little Boy.' Indeed, there is a story about Fr. George Rutler, a great priest in NYC (who I personally heard speak on the importance of fighting evil, specifically on the Siege of Vienna) meeting with then-candidate Trump. We can only hope and pray that men of wisdom and good counsel keep championing good deeds in the face of evil, even when such deeds may offend modernist sensibilities.
