One's local gun laws give one the right, and some unknown git in the Ottoman Empire of the late 14th Century gave one the ability to keep and bear guns. It has nothing to do with God.

Whatever is the religion of the World Peace and Unification Sanctuary, it's not Christian, since guns were unknown in biblical times and the result of their use is anathema to every brand of Christianity based on the Bible.

If you insist on dragging religion into this, Jesus recommended beating your swords (weapons) into plowshares, not carrying them into your church to have your deity give it a polish.
