Human life must be respected because it is sacred. From its beginning, human life involves the creative action of God and it remains forever in a special relationship with the Creator, who is its sole end. It is not lawful for anyone directly to destroy an innocent human being. This is gravely contrary to the dignity of the person and the holiness of the Creator. "Do not slay the innocent and the righteous" (Exodus 23:7).

467. Why is the legitimate defense of persons and of society not opposed to this norm?
Because it is choosing to legitimately defend oneself in respecting the right to life (either one's own right to life or that of another) and not choosing to kill. Indeed, for someone responsible for the life of another, legitimate defense can be not only a right but a grave duty, provided only that disproportionate force is not used.

Smoga Kuasa Roh Kudus menyertai kita semua untuk selalu bersyukur dan selalu peduli terhadap sesama. Bersyukur atas segala Karunia yang telah dimiliki, Keluarga dan teman" baik yang kita kenal. Smoga kita semakin Beriman, Bersaudara dan Berbela Rasa. Tuhan beserta kita. Maranatha. https://2belife.blogspot.com
