Nikki Haley, the U.S. representative to the UN, said she would love to have a ban on nuclear weapons, but in this day and time we cant honestly say we can protect our people by allowing bad actors to have them and those of us that are good trying to keep peace and safety not to have them, specifically mentioning the threat of nuclear-armed North Korea.
Nikki Haley has more common sense than Bergoglio.

Not all nukes...just the ones held by Russia,China,North Korea,Pakistan and Iran.The others serve to make large scale wars (like WWII) very,very unlikely.World history since 1945 proves that to be true.

Go away, Popey. Time for you to hunker down in the library. You could read FACTS or study the Catechism or pray. Just stay OUT of the public eye.

Frank Herbert grasped mutually-assured destruction very well in his Dune books. Every great house has a secret stockpile of "family atomics": to be possessed but NEVER used. Doing so is open invitation for every other house to rain down nuclear fire and not even the otherwise neutral Spacing Guild would come to assist the house that violated the ban. It would be an act of guaranteed suicide, and everyone... even the loathsome Harkonnens... knows it.
It keeps the peace. The houses have to wage war with other means like poison and remote-operated drones. But the number of civilian deaths is kept at practically nil.
Why the leader of the Roman Catholic Church, allegedly one of the wisest individuals on the planet, cannot understand this principle is mind-boggling.

Maybe he could start with pedophila within the church. Once he fixes that he can work on corruption within the vatican bank.
If he’s successful and still around (unlike John Paul I), then maybe he can have a seat at the table.

Even in a perfect world it is not going to happen Bishop Jorge. That genie is out of the bottle and you can not put him back.
Making something the first time is the hard part. Once you know something is possible and more or less how to do it then there is no way to stamp it out.
It is like the "gun ban" that I run across in sci-fi novels. Not going to happen. The chemicals to make gun powder are common and available, the metal is also common and available.
All you would get would be taking safe guns out of the hands of law abiding people and putting unsafe, poorly made ones in the hands of criminals.
Same with nukes. Any country that is willing to put the work in will be able to make them. The ones that are making the most noise about it are those who are trying to get paid not to look.

Global disarmament is a big project, it’ll have to be done one small step at a time. The Pope can lead the way by dismissing the Vatican Guard and sending them home to Switzerland.

The heresy of Private Judgment ... which birthed and developed the "heresies of all heresies" known as Modernism .... has all but killed the Roman Church and many other Churches within the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church communion.
Only Our Triune God's TRUE loving mercy has kept us from suffering even greater pain worldwide so far ...
... for now ...

Noble call, However foolish for there is no way this will happen as things are now. The whole world is overrun with Evil and saying everyone will get ride of them and actually doing so are two different things and Evil feeds on Lies and Deceit.
God Bless
