I think this was touched upon in the catholic forum somewhere briefly. Sigh, it just troubles me that I look at old footage from WWII and see a priest administering last rites to a soldier dying. What about those who didn't get the last rites? What about those who didn't get a final confession and they had killed someone? If we are fighting evil, how does G-d justify us killing another, even in war? Is there the stain of mortal sin on a soldier? I'm very conflicted about it esp. since viewing some actual footage of WWII as well as some films about fighting the SS and the fascists. Is it right to target and kill them/those who terrorize and target innocent and if you do, are you justified before G-d? So, do you say, "sorry, but it was necessary," and then go on to the next? If I were one in any uprising, I'd probably conspire to kill them to preserve the good, but then I wouldn't know if I'd face G-d with clean hands. Evil monarchs, tyrants?
Well, I take delight to see them murdered in films such as "Inglorious Basterds." If I weren't as lucky as the Italian bicyclist or others who conspired with the Pope etc. to pass messages and gain freedom/hiding of people targeted who did no killing, I'd most likely set them up to die. I know, this is so very random and seems violent, but I'm alright. Just wondering.
