"Resistance to the Iraq War by Catholics ... can only increase, aided by Courage to Resist... May Catholic youth especially seek out this website."

Resistance to the Iraq War by Catholics who examine what is to transpire in Austria October 27, 2007 [info below] can only increase, aided by the Courage to Resist movement with specific cases posted online for the public. May Catholic youth especially seek out this website.

On the October 27, 2007 the Roman Catholic Church will honor Franz Jagerstatter, a World War II Austrian resister to an unjust war waged by an ideological-driven regime. Beheaded for his belief, he is declared a martyr worthy of emulation. The canonization prayer reads: “In faith, he followed his conscience, and said a decisive NO…to unjust war…We pray ..that many people may be encouraged by him…May his example shine out in our time…”
