1P5 vs Dimonds: Opening Salvo on EENS

  • This most interesting thing about this debate is that it is a 1P5/Meaning of Catholic person (he is speckzo and Jeremiah Bannister's friend). It is a low cost way for MoC to debate MHFM without directly losing credibility, since they can't afford to place their brand on the line. All of the recent anti sede talk from Bannister is leading up to this for sure. I don't know what MoC was thinking with this lol.

    Something tells me this isn't the last from MoC vs MHFM. I figure the Dimonds accepted this
    Because they realized it was a 1P5/MoC proxy debate and I assume Bannister is on their radar (he was in contact with them at one point IIRC, correct me if I'm wrong). Another note is look at how Pinesap focuses on optics in this debate: Rather than ecclesiology, I think sedevacantism's weakest point is optics and 1P5 sees an opportunity here.

  • I listened to the first minute or two, not sure I could take much more of the same old thing that starts out with invincible ignorance.

    That term should be completely banished and replaced 100% of the time in thought and word with PPIX's words: "those who are struggling with invincible ignorance about our most holy religion." 

    It amazes me that Pope Pius IX's Quanto Conficiamur Moerore, which is about the promotion of false doctrines, is itself most often used for promoting the false doctrine of salvation for the invincibly ignorant.

    I agree.  II (invincible ignorance) should be stricken from the Catholic vocabulary.  That argument from II implies clear-cut Pelagianism.  Ignorance can never be salvific, but merely exculpatory.  Period.  If one is inculpably ignorant, then the ignorance is no sin, but that says absolutely nothing about what is required for salvation, supernatural faith, charity, etc.  You could be as invincibly ignorant as anyone who's ever lived, but if you have no supernatural faith, you cannot be saved.  There's this hidden (or not-so-hidden) Pelagian idea that unless you actively and explicitly do something evil, you are saved by default.  That is not true.  On account of Original Sin, we are lost by default.

    Yeah I got about 8 minutes in and knew this was ground that MHFM have already thoroughly covered on the topic.

    It's even worse than this with hardcore IIers. Not converting or knowing about the Catholic Faith is a ticket to heaven while being in the Church puts you in a fewness of the saved lottery. The idea promoted by IIers is that people who have actively posessed Faith, Hope and Charity are less preferred by God. This guy's entire debate is based on trying to not say this.

    This anti-logic is astounding to me. I remember when I first grasped the sede position that I would pose the question to others "why be a Catholic at all if I can be saved as a Neoplatonist or a pagan?" I mean hey, if that's true, I'll go right back to following Plato and Plotinus, it's a lot easier /sarcasm :facepalm:

    Such a position, honestly, just shows a lack of supernatural faith. They look at God as if He is looking for every reason to throw us into hell; but then look at infidels, et al, as if He is looking for every reason to save them. When in reality He is looking for the latter in both cases, with the expectation that you do everything to follow His precepts, not man's.

    See this is the thing, when Frankie says not to convert the Orthodox, Lutherans etc it's because of this. When people say EENS isn't the primary issue or that it isn't THE primary explicit heresy of VII their eyes aren't focused on how the dogma interacts with what the modernists do and say.

  • I decided to give it more of a listen on the drive home. And man, it is a frustrating debate. This Pinesap guy does not understand that it doesn't matter if there's the hypothetical one individual with all of the proper virtues and disposition,  or many, they still will not be saved without water baptism. It won't happen, Br. Michael explicated that through infallible pronouncements on the necessity of water baptism, and still he persists with the point. :facepalm:

    In his persistence, he is implying that God can contradict Himself, which is blasphemy. God specified in John 3:5 the necessity of water baptism, any exceptions He makes to that point is a contradiction of what He has already instituted and proclaimed, which is impossible. God cannot be contradicted.

  • Gave the debate a full watch and I have an immediate thought about why pinesap would debate the Dimonds instead of an explicit BoDer.

    An explicit BoDer would have destroyed pinesap more definitively in a sense. He couldn't have hidden in the way he did because he tries to use Trent how Fr. Jenkins (or a strict Aquinas BoDer) would have defended explicit BoD, the Dimonds couldn't capitalize on the greatest contradiction in his position because they believe BoD is heretical.

    The debate between pinesap and an explicit BoDer would be...
    1) Explicit BoDer attacks loose EENS and say that Trent only taught explicit faith and that belief in the Trinity and Incarnation are required for salvation.
    2) pinesap word salad about Pius IX/XII yada yada
    3) Explicit BoDer says sure whatever (he can accept or deny what pinesap's premise, depends on if he wants to play word games or not) but Trent infallibly defined BoD as explicit
    4) pinesap is trapped (there are a few lines of argumentation from here that work nicely and he can't really do anything at this point)

    Debate over. There are a couple of intermediary steps I won't reveal because I would prefer an element of surprise if pinesap ever debates me on "implicit faith" ;);););)

    Worth noting another pinesap position

  • Another interesting dimension to this debate is it cements AF (America First movement) as a Novus Ordo apologist group, which already was true with Milo/Nick connections as well as Bannister/speckzo but with pinesap groyper debating sedes and Dimondites (other EENSers soon?!) they will need to somehow reconcile anti-globalism with the NWO magisterium of their antichurch.

    Speckzo is a total heretic and hypocrite. On 30 May he stated on his telegram: "it's also not acceptable to say Vatican II is heretical or illicit. By doing so, you are essentially calling Christ a liar and implying that the gates of hell have prevailed." He condemns himself, because the most viewed page on his Youtube channel, which is also on the front page of it, calls Vatican II heretical: https://youtu.be/ZppBVICHbP4?t=3519

    It's not surprising the AF "groyper" movement is largely gravitating to the Vatican II sect. They are very focused on "optics" and being appealing to mainstream neo-cons. So unfortunately human respect blinds them to the full truth. Being a "radtrad" isn't "good optics", so they have taken heretics like Lofton and Bannister for their teachers in an attempt to reconcile the irreconcilable.

    These men are not Catholics, they lack supernatural faith and hate the truth. They're appealing to a trend in order to bolster their own following. That's why they constantly contradict themselves and blatantly lie about Church teachings, because the truth is not in them.

    It's honestly really depressing to see how widespread this is among so-called "traditionalists" these days. I had my suspicions that something wasn't right, but, lately I've come to the realization of just how bad things are.

    It seems they turn to Catholicism to support their political views and give them a religious veneer. They care not for the truth.

    This seems to be why speckzo hasn't deleted the most viewed video on his channel which he now condemns as heretical. He values video views and having a large following more than the truth. Just like his leader Nicholas Fuentes.
