Catholic archbishop of U.S. armed forces calls for soldiers to disobey orders

Timothy Broglio, the Catholic archbishop of the United States armed forces, said during a bbc interview posted on Sunday that if the U.S. orders servicemen to invade Greenland, it would be difficult for them to disobey such orders, but “strictly speaking, he or she would be—within the realm of their own conscience—it would be morally acceptable to disobey that order. But that’s perhaps putting that individual in an untenable situation, and that’s my concern.” Matters of faith are sensitive subjects, but Broglio’s comments can be interpreted as license to reject orders from the current administration. More importantly, this is symptomatic of a deeper division between the Vatican and the Anglo-American tradition. Trumpet editor in chief Gerald Flurry’s article “Should the King Pray With the Pope?” explains.
