Yes, it's become my "pet" subject for the past year or two, but I'm repeatedly reminded that this subject bears repeated remindings:
"Racism" is a moral concept invented in the 20th Century by Marxist Jews.
Catholics are not obligated to accept moral concepts invented by Christ's enemies. In fact, we are obligated to REJECT them.
"Mit Brennender Sorge," Poche's interminable nd inevitable spamming of it notwithstanding, is not a recognition of the "reality" of the non-existent Jєωιѕн Marxist "sin" of racism. On the contrary, it affirms race - along with the people and the state - as a "fundamental value of the human community," with a "necessary and honorable... function in worldly things." That affirmation alone, according to the Jєωιѕн-Marxist weltanschauung behind the concept of "Racism," renders the Encyclical and its author "Racist." After all, "race is just a social construct," right, goyim?
The encyclical warns against exalting these "fundamental values" to "idolatrous levels." The only group I can think of that's genuinely guilty of exalting race to idolatrous levels, would be the very ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan that so despises us unwashed goyim chattel that they would rather call the Blood of the Messiah upon themselves as an eternal curse, than to accept that God's grace of salvation has been opened by that selfsame Messiah to all - of every race - and not just to them.
But loving one's own race above others? Recognizing that talents and weaknesses are not evenly distributed among the races? Not wanting to live among members of an alien race? None of those qualifies as "exaltation to idolatrous levels." It's mere human nature.
Cast off any claim that Jєωιѕн Marxists have on your intellects, friends. "Racism" has all the objective moral reality of "sexism," "homophobia," and "transphobia." Accuse no one of it, and accept all accusations of it lobbed against you with a shrug and a smile.
Very well said. Thank you
I completely agree. I am of the view that in our world, the utopian vision of those who believe that multiculturalism, miscegenation, and egalitarianism are the way to progress is greatly misguided.
Human nature is what it is and we cannot change that reality. Being Catholics we can certainly temper our natures, but we cannot completely destroy it.
Races are by nature of different abilities, temperaments, and natures.
Seeing this reality is not racist at all. Nor is the desire of a people to live under one nation with their own race/ethnicity. I believe that is better for everyone in the long run.
While I do not believe, as the Church also teaches, that mixed race marriages are inherently evil, I do believe that they are generally a very bad idea and that one should marry from his/her own people and culture. Unique individual situations may exist where it may be possible, but such a rare occurance cannot be generalized.
Lastly, I do believe that certain races are inherently prone to certain virtues and vices as males and females are prone to certain virtues and vices as well. I do not think this as racist or sexist.
Simply reality.
