    There are many other false religions with natural virtues and natural truth in them.  ...
    I think that before modernism all religions, though man-made, had some respect for human dignity, the laws of nature and morality. ...

       
    I think we've to separate the false pre-christian religions from the false ones afterwards, like the horrible Islam. Still your words in a general sense are reminiscent of what Bishop Williamson said last year. If we remember how close the ties are between your mentioned modernism and the liberalism. Bold by me:  

    Eleison Comments CCIII (June 4, 2011): Reading Pagans

    [..] Now whereas for Catholics Providence is inseparable from God, the Greeks separate Zeus from Fate so that they sometimes clash. That follows from the Greeks having a too human concept of their gods. Nevertheless they do conceive of Zeus as more or less benignly directing the universe and of Fate as being unchangeable, as is Providence within the true God (Summa Ia, 23, 8; 116,3), so that they are not wholly wrong. Moreover they have more respect for their mythical gods, and for the moral order guarded by them, than do a host of modern writers, who have no respect for any god at all, and who set out to negate any trace of a moral order.

    [..] so the ancient Greeks give special witness to God and his Providence when, independently of the Catechism, they demonstrate the world's moral order in action. In this way they prove that such natural truths are accessible not only to believers, rather they belong to the very fabric of life as lived by everyone, if only it is sanely understood.

    Another advantage of the ancient classics in particular is that having preceded Christ, there cannot be in them a trace of that apostasy which mars, more or less, even pious writers coming out of Christendom after the Middle Ages. Natural truths are presented by the ancients with a certain innocence and freshness which can no longer be recovered. The waters are too muddied.

    In fact it was the Church's monasteries which ensured the survival of the manuscripts of the ancient classics in medieval times. Count on the true Catholic Church to save them once more in modern times from the new barbarians, liberals! Wherever the so-called „scholarship“ of the liberals prevails today, it turns all classics to dust. Kyrie eleison.

  • An old thread but some of the misinformation of the Mohammedan-lovers should be addressed. The Muslim world is not the last bastion of tradition and the natural law. The Muslim world does not stand against liberalism. In most respects they have embraced it to perhaps an even greater extent than the Novus-Ordites. It seems the burqa is enough to mislead most Catholics into thinking these people are defenders of tradition. They are not.

    ...so no, I won't be quoting the Koran anytime soon.


    If you kiss it publicly, however, you just might qualify for sainthood.
    "This principle is most certain: The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope. The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member. Now, he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian, St. Athanasius, St. Augustine, St. Jerome, and others. Therefore, the manifest heretic cannot be Pope." -- St. Robert Bellarmine

    Anyway, yes, Mohammedans often display many natural virtues.  That being said, they are certainly infidels who do not worship the One True God, Mohammedan men's authority is considered so great that they believe they can literally do anything they want with their wives' bodies (agains the natural law) just so long as they perform the proper purification ritual afterwards, and their understanding of Paradise is a place fit for ignoble beasts enslaved to the flesh.  Likewise, their means of furthering their religion are entirely carnal and external, just like most things in their religion, and it would be dishonest to pretend that they have not spread their false religion overwhelmingly through military force, mob violence, murders, bribery, and so forth.

    I do not deny that they exhibit many virtues as opposed to the liberals, but there seems to be a quiet jealousy of the Mohammedans displayed by some of the more reactionary posters on this forum.  We Catholics have our own ways given to us by God; let's study those and imitate the rigour of our devout ancestors, rather than lionise Mohammedan lynch mobs because they scared away a satanic popular culture idol.
