CWN Editor's Note: In an article entitled “Just War 101,” Bishop James Conley of Lincoln, Nebraska, analyzed the Iran war, as well as the “legal/ethical conflict between Anthropic (developer of the popular ‘Claude’ AI system) and the Department of War.”
Catholics cannot accept “consequentialist and utilitarian” arguments, Bishop Conley wrote. “There are certain standards for which we stand, regardless of consequences. Period.”
