Funny seeing how the Vatican bank has shares in Beretta.
The group of nuns filed the lawsuit in their role as Smith & Wesson shareholders
There’s actually a fair amount of discord between the Vatican and some of the nuns. There’s a strong social justice component in some subunits of the Catholic Church where they part ways with the Vatican (although I suspect less so with Francis than with Ratzinger, whose resemblance to Palpatine was not a mere coincidence).
Liberation theology is pro AK on the other hand (rightfully so)
Owning shares is actually the method they're using to have standing to sue. It's a shareholder suit. For those curious about which orders, it's a teaching order, a nursing order, a Dominican order (the odd man out), and a franciscian order.
Why do you say Dominicans are the odd ones out? They have a long and storied history of caring about social justice.
For sure, they're not quite as conservative as the Benedictines. I shouldn't push them off like that.
Ok, but have you considered that the Trappist monks who make the really nice beer are Benedictines?
If you haven’t tried reconsider your opinion after a 6 pack of that particular ambrosia.
