Clearing the FUD Around Morally Tainted Vaccines

JMJ

LifeSite News has been steadfast in its campaign about morally tainted vaccines.

There's only one problem, in their zeal, they've made a critical departure from the moral theology of the Catholic Church regarding the cooperation with evil.

The leveraging of celebrity Catholics doesn't change this one whit.

The departure is that they seem to believe there exists a moral link between the cell line used and all the preceding murders / feticides that occurred prior and since then.

This is false.

When someone receives a morally tainted vaccine, they cooperate remotely in the evil of the murder of the baby whose cells were used in the production of the vaccine.

In the case of HEK-293 and PER-C.6, the cell lines are derived from one baby each.

There is no moral link between the person inoculated and the other murders.

The best analogy I could come up with is that if a person is a serial killer and sells you one of his victims watches, you have benefited from the murder of that specific person. Not all of his victims.

So while the methods used in the murder of the babies are wide, various and horrendous, it doesn't change the fact that:

We are cooperating in the evil of a murder if the morally tainted vaccines employed tainted cell lines. For most cell lines this is one baby.
This cooperation is remote and permitted with a list of obligations.
The degree of remoteness is even greater for vaccines where tainted cell lines were used only for testing in the development stage.
The present pandemic and other graves reasons render the use licit.
The recourse to shock media statement such as "Archbishop Viganò: Vaccines made with fetal tissue are a ‘human sacrifice of innocent victims offered to Satan" are manipulative methods unworthy of Catholics.

A Look Back: A short history of the SSPX

+ JMJ I started a timeline a while back but never finished it. Fortunately, here's one that brings us up to 1994!!! P^3 http://archives.sspx.org/SSPX_FAQs/a_short_history_of_the_sspx-part-1.htm A short history of the SSPX A presentation given by Fr. Ramon Angles in Kansas City, MO, on the 25th Anniversary of the founding of the SSPX and reprinted from the January 1996 issue of The Angelus . Part 1 The history of the Society of St. Pius X begins, of course, in the mind of God. But do not believe that its temporal origin is to be found solely at the time of the post-conciliar crisis. The Society of St. Pius X was made possible ...

Hermeneutic of the Hermeneutic of Continuity - sspx.org

+ JMJ Since I'm looking at the 'four things', I thought this article would be good. Unfortunately, with the new SSPX.org website, I've been unable to locate the original article. This is a copy the I emailed to myself. This is an article that, I believe, was written in response to a conference given by Msgr. Pozzo. P^3

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...

Morning and Evening and other sundry Prayers

+ JMJ Along the theme of P^3 (Prayer, Penance, Patience), and for my own reference ... here is a collection of Morning and Evening prayers from the Ideal Daily Missal along with some additional prayers. In this crisis of the Church, I do not think it is possible to do too much prayer, penance and have patience. P^3

Dogmas of the Catholic Faith (de fide) - Expanded Listing: Answer for Reader

+ JMJ A reader asked the following question in the 2015 version of the article on the Dogmas of the Catholic Faith (link) : 117: "In the state of fallen nature it is morally impossible for man without Supernatural Revelation, to know easily, with absolute certainty and without admixture of error, all religious and moral truths of the natural order." Where can you find this in the documents of the Church? ( Link to comment ) Here's the reference from Ott: The citation that Ott provided was Denzinger 1786 and the source document is Dogmatic Consitution Concerning the Faith from the First Vatican Council (Papal Encyclicals - link) : Chapter 2 On Revelation, Article 3: It is indeed thanks to this divine revelation , that those matters concerning God, which are not of themselves beyond the scope of human reason, can, even in the present state of the human race, be known by everyone, without difficulty, with firm certitude and with no intermingling of error. Here's ...
