@ChrisxCrash92@RorateCaeli@juvenale38 I wish it were significantly more common, if not the norm. One can be sure that a priest who celebrates mass in Latin will celebrate it well, no matter the version of the missal.
Authentic freedom is founded upon the human person’s capacity to know the truth and adhere to what is good, even at great cost.

@BruceLeroy3000@FeserEdward Except that you cannot establish consistent boundaries between personal and private property. A house, for example, can be used for work by the owner &/or others. And there's nothing wrong with that, as it can still serve the common good. Most importantly, employment isn't evil.
@Mons_Cassinus@FeserEdward Buried in one of his blog posts since the release of Immortal Souls, Feser has mentioned book(s) on natural law being in his plans.
@jonrueger@FeserEdward Order, purely and simply, is in itself good, because the only time order is not good is when it leads to disorder, which is rather a lack of order, as is the case of open borders. The mass import of immigrants serves precisely the rich by flooding the economy with cheap labor.
@BruceLeroy3000@FeserEdward The point of the government is to serve the common good, and socialism is contrary to the common good since it is hostile to the natural right of private property. So yeah, any upstanding person should be against socialism in any level of government.
@Donna_Rachel_ These things happened because people are more afraid of being called "far-right" than actually getting things done. Feed into that fear, and you're part of the problem.
@mellow63753@BreeSolstad Jesus is God. If you deny that Mary is the Mother of God, either you deny that she is the mother of Jesus, or you deny that Jesus is God. Pick your poison.
O ensino estatal é péssimo, mas você não pode fazer homeschooling.
A segurança é péssima, mas você não pode se defender.
O desemprego está alto, mas você não pode trabalhar informalmente.
A qualidade da tua vida não importa, importa só que obedeça e que fique dependendo deles.
Peter Geach: “When we hear of some new attempt to explain reasoning or language or choice naturalistically, we ought to react as if we were told someone had squared the circle or proved √2 to be rational: only the mildest curiosity is in order – how well has the fallacy been concealed?” (The Virtues, p. 52)
@alastairmci@FeserEdward Yes, Christ had other priorities while dying, but that's kinda the point. The crucifixion isn't a lesson on jurisprudence
Now, you can be merciful even to the point of forgoing self-defense, but it's still a mistake to conflate mercy w/ justice. Christ didn't outlaw punishment.
@goretexamerica@jimiuorio Red hopes his loved ones also push red. Blue hopes 50%+1 people pushes blue for the sake of his loved ones who pushed blue. In neither case you have much agency in saving anybody.
@alastairmci@FeserEdward And where does Christ correct his judgment? That's all we have. All that underscores the injustice of the crucifixion in the gospels is Jesus' innocence.
But it's always bad to punish the innocent. Must we condemn prisons as well, because the apostles were wrongfully imprisoned?
@1_n0el@waitbutwhy There's literally no betting at all when pressing red, red survives no matter what. It's blue who bets on most people not being red, he puts the noose around his own neck and then tells others to do the same or he'll die. It's like a Ponzi scheme with people threatening suicide.
