Who pays for those weapons, Mr Bishop?

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children....This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from an iron cross."

Dwight Eisenhower 1953

Meanwhile the Bishop of Carlisle endorses this theft by blessing a nuclear submarine. You can read his astonishing defence of this total abication of moral principle.

It seems that the Bishop is quite happy to make a stand against men who love each other whilst happily endorsing the means by which they kill each other and as Eisenhower noted take part in "a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed"

Pass the sick bag!
