No Surprise: Tucho Falsifies John Paul II in "Dignitas Infinita"
In DI 39, Tucho promotes pacifism and offers the following quotation from John Paul II's encyclical 'Redemptor hominis' (1979). "In the name of God and in the name of man: Do not kill! Do not prepare destruction and extermination for people! Think of your brothers and sisters who suffer hunger and misery! Respect the dignity and freedom of every human being! (RH 16)"
Tucho implies that John Paul II always considered killing in war to be a violation of the fifth commandment: "Thou shalt not kill". But this is not true. John Paul II also adds in the quoted passage (RH 16) that "modern weapons and means of destruction" can be used in wars to "defend just rights and sovereignty".
