Speaking of World War Two...

Mother Bernardine Goulter shares her story of surviving the Atomic Bombing of Nagasaki. A city founded by Catholic Missionaries and at the time of the bombing 2/3 of all Catholics in Japan lived in Nagasaki. In fact the Catholic Cathedral was the target used for aiming the Atomic Bomb. Out of this untold misery may we pray that we as a race have learned never to use such weapons again. Mother Mary, pray for us.

"No matter what people say about the atomic bomb bringing the war to an end, of its preventing wars in the future, never can I be reconciled to the injustice inflicted on thousands of innocent people whose only part in the war was to suffer from it." -Mother Bernardine Goulter

Wartime Good and Evil

War is an unfortunate event no matter how it proceeds but some wars are filled with blatantly unjust actions. We must see beyond the Myth of Wartime Good and Evil to talk seriously about the legacy of World War Two.
