(AP) The Vatican praised President Barack Obama's proposals for curbing gun violence, saying they are a "step in a right direction."

I doubt the credibility of this article since the source is the far-left Associated Press. And, furthermore, just what is "The Vatican" [sic]? As I understand it (and I very well may be wrong), unless the Pope himself utters the words, there's nothing official in a statement attributed to an entity as nebulous as "The Vatican".

In any event, my church of Christ congregation is not a gun-free zone. Tomorrow, during worship services, there will be quite a few of us in the auditorium armed -- and that includes the preacher. Sure, we may sing without instrumental accompaniment but we certainly are accompanied by our firearms. It's no wonder that a thug has never tried to make off with our collection plate!

My church of Christ is right there with ya, brother. Acapella and concealed carry everywhere... it sounds good to me!
