Individuals are counseled to turn the other cheek and not take personal revenge, but society always has a duty to protect the innocent, and deal with the guilty, by whatever means necessary.

He found the Paris attacks “poignant”?
Because he studied there for 3 years?

I honeymooned in Paris, so it’s a special place for me. Poignant is not the word I’d use. I will withhold saying what I think about this bishop right now, but needless to say I am disappointed in him.

And turning the other cheek is to personal insults.
I don’t believe for a minute that extends to our reaction to an attack on others.
On the contrary, if we see someone being attacked, I believe it is our moral obligation to protect and defend them.
It’s THEIR responsibility to turn the other cheek. Not ours to do it for them.
