The Child will be called "Prince of Peace," Men look for peace in so many ways and through so many means, but this peace does not exist except in God, in Jesus Christ, in His Gospel (RSP, p 310).

From Father Tom: Peace is defined as "the tranquility of order". The key here is "order". The opposite is "disorder" and contention.
