Can the Unvaccinated Buy Food in New Brunswick

Can the Unvaccinated Buy Food in New Brunswick - Updated comment

JMJ

I received two comments from a friend about a New Brunswick COVID-19 restriction giving Business / Retail the option to require proof of vaccination.

Hi Tradical, Hope you do not agree with New Brunswick government on allowing grocery stores the option of banning unvaccinated from their stores. Cultural Marxism is gaining ground. God Bless.

Hi Tradical, I hope you post my previous comment, would be interesting to see some other comments. Maybe put it as a post by itself, encourage other readers to comment.

It should be obvious to my readers that I wouldn't agree with requiring proof of vaccination to enter a grocery store. The problem is that this is restriction (see references) is a generic one that includes grocery stores - that are an essential service. I'm happy that Sobey's isn't going to do something immoral like prevent people from accessing food.

So this brings up an interesting point, at what point are restrictions actually immoral? Where is the line that the Gov't must not cross.

For myself, I hold the opinion that masks, social distancing etc don't cross the line. Mandates that require a truly immoral action would cross the line, but the current vaccines are a remote cooperation with evil so they don't. Keeping people from accessing the basic necessities of food, clothing, shelter (including energy) would be an issue.

Comments open, but moderation is on. Please by polite and respectful - otherwise I will either delete or edit the comment and post below in the edited comments section 😇.

Hi Tradical,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Apparently the Quebec government dictated that unvaxxed Catholics cannot attend Mass and receive the Sacraments in a Catholic church. The slow growing reality of a tyrannical government is becoming more evident. The fear being created of a virus ( omicron has been labelled as mild) has led to businesses going bankrupt, people being coerced to take an experimental drug or lose their livelihood.

The whole scope of it reaks of insanity. What will happen next? The vaccination status will be changed to include the 3rd booster..... then changed to include the 4th ....etc. God Bless

Tradical Thoughts: It's bad, I wonder what rationale was used for such an action.

Hi Tradical,

Have you heard what is happening in Quebec? 3rd dose vaccination status, vax passport for big box stores. When will people wake up to the tyranny? Project Mockingbird. God Bless

Tradical Thoughts: Same as above.

Stores "have the option of requiring proof of vaccination from all patrons, but we will leave that decision up to individual businesses," New Brunswick Health Minister Dorothy Shephard told CBC News.

Sobeys, one of only two national grocery retailers in Canada, said it will not be asking customers for proof of vaccination, a spokesperson told CBC News.

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...
