COMMON GOOD
THE COMMON GOOD TRUMPS PERSONAL PRIVILEGE
THE LAW OF GOD TRUMPS THE SECOND AMENDMENT
WHEN A SINGLE PULL OF A TRIGGER
PUTS TEN BULLETS IN A CHILD’S BODY
IN CIVILIAN LIFE
WHO NEEDS THAT WEAPON
ITS CAPACITY TO HARM
WHEN CHRIST WAS QUESTIONED
SHOULD WE USE WEAPONS
HE ASKED
HOW MANY HAVE YOU
TWO THEY REPLIED
IT IS ENOUGH
WHAT NEED DO WE HAVE OF WEAPONS
IN EXCESS NUMBERS AND CAPACITY
IN CIVILIAN LIFE
WHEN IT CAN HARM OUR NEIGHBOR
THE COMMON GOOD PREVAILS
ALL OTHER THINGS BOW BEFORE IT
FRANK A VOLLMER
This is the rule of most perfect
Christianity, its most exact definition, its highest point, namely, the seeking
of the common good. For nothing can so make a person an imitator of Christ as
caring for their neighbors.
