A pope's opinion on a particular war, or his decision to start a war, is not infallible. So a Catholic is free to disagree with it so long as they are adhering to Church teaching about it to the best of their abilities.
So, the pope being for or against something...not -actually- an indicator of whether you're for or against something..as you implied in the response directly prior to my question. Right? LOL, to the best of their abilities.., now following doctrine is subjective as well? "Well gee, you know, the pope said I had to wait to marry..but I just fucking -can't-". Soon your very belief in -christ- will be relative, subjective, and depending upon circumstance.
I'll be there to applaud you.
