Catholic Church says churches are “gun free zones”

A Catholic priest in Ann Arbor, Michigan has contradicted diocese policy by urging parishioners to arm themselves in self defense.

Rev. Edward Fride of Christ the King Catholic Church sent a letter earlier this month to parishioners telling them they do not live in Mayberry.

“Pretending we are in Mayberry, while we are clearly not, can have very negative consequences for ourselves and those we love, especially those we have a responsibility to protect. If we are not in Mayberry, is there a real threat?” Fride asked.

Mayberry is as fictional town portrayed on the Andy Griffith Show. The 1960s television show “was popular because it showed a kind of life that everybody wished were true, no threats, everything is fine, everybody’s perfectly safe, etc.,” Fride writes in the letter.

“It is very common for Christians to simply assume that they live in Mayberry, trusting that because they know the Lord Jesus, everything will always be fine and nothing bad can happen to them and their families. Those who have followed the Lord Jesus for more than 20 minutes, however, have often experienced first-hand that the reality of living in a fallen universe can be very different.”

Fride writes that there are very specific threats not adequately addressed by civil authorities and police. He then mentions the chief of police of the City of Detroit who last year repeatedly called on “good” and “law-abiding” Detroiters to arm themselves against criminals in the city.
