The Brave New World - Freedom of Speech for all ... except those who disagree with us!

JMJ

In reality the principle of separation of Church and State is a principle that separates the state from reality.

Just label something as a 'religious' opinion and suddenly it is banned from public life.

Scientifically we know that a Fetus (latin for Baby) is a human baby from a human father and mother.

We know that killing innocents is murder

We know that abortion is the deliberate pre-meditated killing of an innocent and is therefore murder.

To slice through the gordian knot, we just have to science based decision making and recognised legally that a baby in the womb is a human being.

Then the fantasy house of cards will come tumbling down.

An Apple with a Bitter Taste

August 11, 2019

Source: fsspx.news

On July 1, 2019, Apple’s information platform removed the contents of the LifeSite channel, without any prior notice. The pro-life media responded by launching a petition that collected more than 20,000 signatures in just 24 hours.

Woe to the one who does not share the values of the Apple: LifeSite, an American pro-life news site, learned on July 1, 2019 that all of its content was removed and blocked from the Apple News application.

Apple News is the world's first news and information application with more than 5 billion articles read per month, according to Apple CEO Tim Cook. This platform offers a selection of articles from the headlines of the press that meet its ideological standards: promotion of globalism and the fight against all forms of discrimination.

LifeSiteNews is accused of intolerance by Apple because this Christian site defends natural morality and does not participate in the propaganda favoring of homosexuality. John-Henry Westen, its editor in chief, stated that Apple’s decision is “frightening” from a “rather left-oriented” society that censors conservative views even when shared by a majority of citizens .

To fight what he sees as “blatant censorship of freedom of expression,” LifeSite launched an online petition that has collected more than 20,000 signatures in twenty-four hours. As of the 1st of August there were 35,000 signatories.

The petition yielded results. On August 6, 2019 the Apple News team informed LifeSite that they have “re-evaluated” its channel. LifeSite's channel and articles are once again available on the Apple News application.

The Vatican and SSPX – An Organizational Culture Perspective

Introduction The recent and continuing interactions between the Vatican and the SSPX have been a great opportunity for prayer and reflection. The basis for the disagreement is theological and not liturgical. As noted by Dr. Lamont (2012), the SSPX theological position on the four key controversial aspects of the Second Vatican Council are base on prior theological work that resulted from relevant magisterial pronouncements. So it is difficult to understand the apparent rejection of the theological position of the SSPX.

A Reply to Martin Blackshaw’s FLAWED Remnant article titled: FLAWED: SSPX Advice on Abortion-tainted Vaccines

+ JMJ An article has appeared in the Remnant (link to article) and I am afraid that there are a number of flaws in it that need to be addressed. The author, Martin Blackshaw, believes that both the Church and the SSPX are misapplying the principle of Moral Theology called 'Cooperation In Evil'. Unfortunately, Mr. Blackshaw rests most of his arguments on citing authors that support his position, without considering the possibility that they are wrong. This highlights a key factor in this crisis: ignorance of the faith and its application . I don't am not singling out Mr. Blackshaw for this criticism, I have observed that it applies to laity and religious, superior and subject a like. No one seems immune in this enduring crisis, myself included. I further believe that this ignorance is why so many Catholics, both traditional and non, rely on their gut feeling or "Catholic conscience" for charting their way through this crisis of the faith. While...

Rome and the SSPX - the latest

+ JMJ Bishop Fellay gave a conference late last month and provided some more insight into the situation with Rome. There are comments on Deus Ex Machina Blog and Hilary White has now entered the fray. What is one Catholic to think about all these opinions? What a Catholic is to think: With the Church! What does the Church think about obedience? Virtue as it is? If there is no proximate occasion of sin and the other conditions are met, then one cannot resist the command.

SSPX and the Resistance - A Comparison Of Ecclesiology

Shining the light of Church Teaching on the doctrinal positions of the SSPX and the Resistance. Principles are guides used to aid in decision making. It stands to reason that bad principles will lead to bad decisions. The recent interactions between Rome and the SSPX has challenged a number of closely held cultural assumptions of people in both sides of the disagreement. This has resulted in cultural skirmishes in both Rome and the SSPX. Since it is the smaller of the two, the skirmishes have been more evident within the SSPX. The cultural fault-line that Bishop Fellay crossed appears to be linked to two points of Catholic Doctrine: Ecclesiology and Obedience. The cultural difference of view points is strong enough that it has resulted in the expulsion of a number of members. It should also be noted that some other priests expelled since the beginning of the latest interactions (starting in 2000) held the same view points and have joined with the l...

How many more must die for the throne? or How to combat FUD!

+ JMJ How many more must die for the throne? (Movie Quote: Prince Caspian) The Spread of Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt I've seen a lot of FUD spreading across the intergnat on various stats etc. So let's put this in context ... especially the perspective of those people in positions of authority who need to make decisions to protect the lives of their citizens. Yep, this is going to be that type of post. Like it or not the leaders of our governments have their authority from God. So, as Catholics should know, you need to have a very good reason to deliberately disobey the orders of their superiors. This is basic St. Thomas Aquinas ... so don't blame me for discussing things from a Catholic perspective. The leaders of our countries have taken action to protect the vulnerable of our countries. As much as the young and not-so-young may whine and complain - I have to ask how many more of our elderly have to die? What the armchair virologists and ec...
