I used to like 24 but after thinking about it as a Catholic I can no longer be a fan. It is constantly pulling heart strings to justify the means taken to get results. The ends do not justify the means.
You obviously don’t watch the show. If you had you would know that you are wrong. I can think of numerous examples but here is the biggest. In Season Five, the president and his administartion gave the order for Jack to remain undercover and allow the terrorists to release the deadly nerve gas in the mall killing hundreds in an effort to get to the mastermind behind it all and find the remaining canisters and prevent the potential loss of thousands. Here the ends might have justified the means but Jack wasn’t going to allow that. He defied the orders and stopped the attack for the most part saving nearly everyone in the mall.I used to like 24 but after thinking about it as a Catholic I can no longer be a fan.
