christian peace war
Condemning class struggle does not mean condemning every possible form of social conflict. Such conflicts inevitably arise and Christians must often take a position in the "struggle for social justice."

The value at stake is one which every human being can grasp by the light of reason; thus it necessarily concerns everyone.
