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.

De Veritate - St. Thomas Aquinas - What is necessary to believe explicitly?

I was recently introduced to a work of St. Thomas De Veritate ( Source ) in the course of an argument concerning the minimum content of explicit faith.  When I submitted the following quote as proof: Theological faith, that is, a supernatural faith in Revelation, is necessary, and this is an effect of grace (D 1789); nemini unquam sine ilIa contigit iustificatio (D 1793). As far as the content of this faith is concerned, according to Hebr. 11, 6, at least the existence of God and retribution in the other world must be firmly held, necessitate medii (by the necessity of means) with explicit faith. In regard to the Trinity and the Incarnation, implicit faith suffices. The supernatural faith necessary for justification is attained when God grants to the unbeliever by internal inspiration or external teaching a knowledge of the truths of Revelation, and actual grace to make the supernatural act of faith. Cf. De verite 14, I I.Ott - Fundamentals of Dogma p241 In response my opponent ...

Can Catholics Pray with Protestants??? Part 2

 + JMJ While I have explicit permission from the Canadian, US and FSSPX.News sites, as a follow-up to Part 1, I am going to post here an article on the FSSPX.UK website to provide a bona-fide resource for other Traditional Catholics looking for the truth as opposed to just belief on this topic. FSSPX.UK: Matters arising – May We Pray with Non-Catholics? P^3 Matters arising : May we pray with non-Catholics? Rev. Nicholas Mary, C.SS.R. Fr. Nicholas Mary answers topical questions in the light of moral theology and canon law. Public prayer As always, before we can answer a question adequately, terms must be defined and distinctions made. The general principle is clear, as Cardinal Newman writes: From time immemorial, from the earliest ages, members of the Church have been forbidden  communicatio in sacris  [i.e. participation in religious rites] with those who were external to it. This prohibition is not intended as the expression of any judgment on this...

Rome and SSPX - Version 2026 Part 2

 + JMJ Part 2 Detailed Synopsis and Timeline (ChatGPT) At this point, I took the shortcut of uploading all of my previous links and the latest SSPX and Rome links to ChatGPT. This way we’ll see how ChatGPT interprets the world as presented on the internet. P^3 Briefing Memo Subject: Rome–SSPX Relations and Planned Episcopal Consecrations (July 1, 2026) Prepared for: Ecclesial / Academic / Media Briefing Date: February 2026 Issue Overview The Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) has announced its intention to consecrate new bishops on July 1, 2026 , potentially without a papal mandate . The Holy See has acknowledged ongoing talks with the SSPX and stated its desire to avoid rupture, but has not granted approval nor outlined canonical consequences. The situation revives unresolved tensions dating to 1988 and raises questions about schism, authority, and doctrinal continuity. Background Founded in 1970 by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, the SSPX seeks to preserve pre-Vat...

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

Can Catholics Pray with Protestants??? Part 1

 + JMJ Can Catholics Pray with Protestants??? Part 1 Short answer is yes … but ... Introduction Like many Catholics, we have family members who have either lost the Faith or abandoned the Faith to join a protestant church. This brings up question of what can and can’t you do in your relations with them. The one that comes up is ‘praying’ with protestants, particularly at meals but perhaps other events. My goal today is the review the application of moral theology to this question and I have to admit that I used to believe that you can’t say grace with protestants, specifically my Sister, Brother-In-Law and nephews. Distinctions and the Truth are IMPORTANT! There is a difference between praying privately with protestants vs public prayer or worship. In the case of privately praying with protestants the litmus test is whether or not the prayers are heretical or if scandal is given. When acting as a Catholic, it is equally important that we act in accordance with the actua...
