> Moral theology teaches us that the ends do not justify the means.

Deontology is misguided, the ends very often do justify the means.

I don't subscribe to deontology; thanks for asking. I'm in the camp of virtue ethics, myself.

Then saying the ends don't justify the means is even more nonsensical. There's nothing in virtue ethics that espouses that bs.

I'm confident now that you've proven twice over that you haven't the slightest idea what you're on about.
