Fiducia supplicans: gayly violent legal positivism

When sex is not consonant with joyful family life, with the welcome of life, all of which is the very image of God (Genesis: male-female-marriage-family), sex, such as same-sex sex, instead tends to violently destroy self and others, it sets out to blaspheme the image of God in the sexual murder of others as we also read about in Genesis and see today. God is the God of Life, and God is Love. Rejecting God rejects life and love. Such rebellion against God is described by Saint Paul at the end of Romans, chapter one:

• Romans 1:18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
• 21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
• 24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
• 26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
• 28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Wait! What? “…approve of those who practice them…” That would be Fiducia supplicans, which, as Tucho points out later about that document from hell, pretty much requires priests to bless same-sex couples, thus taking upon themselves all the sin of the couples they bless, quite guaranteeing their going to hell, n’est-ce pas?

And, of course, Fiducia supplicans, technically speaking, is a solicitation of sin, an encouragement to sin, a logistical, structural rationalization of sin, such that the signers also are on the highway to hell, n’est-ce pas?

Saint Thomas Aquinas says that any law which is evil is not a law at all, and therefore must not be followed. Meanwhile, the “approval” (Romans 1:32) of blessings of same-sex couples as same-sex couples must be described as legal positivism, that which is held be legal and therefore good and therefore necessary, no matter what the particularities are. No matter what, one can find some good in whatever action it is that one hotly desires to be termed as legal.

Thus, Satan’s drama-queen proclamation “Non serviam!” (I will not serve!), can be said to be good in some way, and therefore able to be blessed by God, because various “goods” about such a declaration of war against God can be enumerated:

• Firstly, Satan serves up his rebellion while existing, and inasmuch as he merely exists without consideration of anything else, such existence is, in fact, following the will of God, even if he hates this.
• Clearly, Satan exemplifies determination, surely amoral in itself without taking circumstances into consideration. But is the unanchored description of Satan’s apostasy to be blessed in hopes of bringing it, with accompaniment, closer to the will of God? No, and if a Catholic priest should attempt to bless Satan he will likely find himself in hell much sooner than later, where Satan will teach him a lesson, blessing that fallen priest for all eternity with punishments for thinking that Satan would want such a blessing even if it were actually able to be given by God (which is absurd).

Meanwhile, the legislators of Fiducia supplicans claim that because they signed the “Declaration” (what a bunch of demonic clowns), those signatures therefore mean that Fiducia supplicans is legal, therefore good, therefore necessary to receive and put into practice.

Tucho speaks of a little bit of time being necessary for this process of caving-in to take place, so there are no penalties delineated just yet for those rejecting such excrement. But those penalties will follow with lock-stepped jack-booted certainty: it will mean that those priests and bishops who just want to do what the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church has always done in consonance with Judeo-Catholic Sacred Revelation will be held to be schismatically disobedient, indeed, apostates for rejecting “the magisterium of Pope Francis.”

Mind you, again, there is no magisterium of any bishop of Rome to which we owe faithful submission, but only to the Magisterium of the Church, which perchance may include an explication in whatever particular pontificate should that verbiage in whatever pontificate be consonant with the constant teaching of the Church through the centuries.

And having said that… heads of signatories over in Rome explode… and we see Saint Paul’s words come to fruition, whereby it is clear that such limp-wristed legal positivism is just so very gay:

• Romans 1:29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy.
