“The Church is neither on the right nor on the left”?- The famous
Dominican priest, Father Réginald Garrigou-Lagrange comment: "I believe that
many of those who use the phrase quoted use it for abandoning the right and then
sliding towards the left. While trying to avoid an excess, they fall into the
opposite". "I also believe that we should not confuse the true right with false
rights".

The Afflictions of the Third Family
/
The sensation of chaos assails us everywhere in our daily lives. We see people at every moment whose actions today contradict those of yesterday, and will also contradict those of tomorrow. It is increasingly rare to find persons all of whose thoughts, words and actions consistently follow several fundamental principles. Evaluating this scenario, people can be classified into three principal families of souls

Importance of Tradition Today

So much reduction of refinement will make it disappear; so much
shortening of clothing will make it vanish; so much silence about the
fundamental values of culture and of the spirit will lead them to desert the
earth. So much fostering and unleashing of disorders will lead them to invade
and submerge everything.
Is there any other way to prevent this than by fighting for our tradition, the
bearer of all authentically Christian, or even simply human values that this
hurricane is destroying?

the Church and the "smoke of Satan"? / The immense majority of the Catholics
wants immediately and first of all, clarity / What could be more just, more
logical, more filial, and more noble than the sons of light turning to that man
to whom it was said: “Thou are Peter and upon this rock I will build My Church,”
to ask him for clarity?

noble abilities is its capacity to relate material things to spiritual things,
and then relate them both to God / Economic development does have its place.
However, it does not hold the supreme place for the simple reason that man is
more than just a stomach.

scene
1981-04-08 - What Next ? / While a certain degree of cunning is required of the spy, much more is required of the deviator. His mission is to infiltrate the core of the opposing party, sow factors of division, propose wrong maneuvers, and foment the discouragement arising from reverses. I tremble for "Solidarity" in Poland as I think of this

On the night of last April 12th, a strong reddish glare, also seen with shades of green, orange, and light yellow, illuminated the skies of the United States.

1982-07-24 - Russian Meddling in Latin America Will Not
Stop / I am persuaded that the Vietnamization of South America is
old plan that Moscow will absolutely not give up. And if a new political
complication tending to vietnamize us appears in the horizon, this article will
be as useful as a notary public deed. For it will prove that Moscow was behind
this new complication from the beginning.

The multitudes are exhausted from their work and sufferings. They are worn out from being constantly over-stimulated by the media into paroxysmal emotions in all their leisure hours. They are tired of treading the fearful maze of chaotic events that have no relationship with the day-to-day religious, cultural, political, social and economic life of our modern existence
1990-01-03 - Grilling the Left and the Extreme
Left /
Castro: "We shall never renounce the honorable title of communist. Long live rigidity, not flexibility, in the defense of revolutionary principles!" Thus, you fence sitters, middle-of-the-roaders, and the like, inveterate toads or hopeless "useful innocents," fanatics of anti-"fanaticism," come right out and say what you think of Fidel's bold radicalism.

1939-10-01 - Freud, His Doctrine and Errors
/ Freud’s sexualizing effort is perhaps the deepest characteristic of his
doctrine, which appears more as a morbid conception than as the brainchild of a
thinker and sage.
1939-10-15 -
The Unending Conflict / The tragic danger of our time lies in
false remedies lacking effective authority, remedies based on insufficient
principles, remedies derived from extremisms that propose to heal the mortal
suffering that afflicts us. Abolishing marriage will only give rise to far worse
and inhumane evils, because it will destroy the basic cell or unity of social
life, which means that society itself will soon be annihilated.

1945-06-10 - Still on
Communism - Predictions and Denunciations / I am not writing this
article for people looking for entertainment but for those who want to reflect a
little on certain rumors circulating profusely in our political environment.
They claim that Communists no longer uphold their old doctrines and, therefore,
the Popes no longer condemn communism. Is it true?
1945-10-14 - Communism, Property, and Family. Predictions
and Denunciations / For Communists, the notion of a crime loses
its raison d'être if that crime does not disturb the progress of humanity’s
evolution toward happiness. Thus, many acts of culpable criminality cease to be
such because their practical consequences do not appear in society to harm it.
Only the usefulness of things for human progress makes them good or bad. Hence,
the State can use individuals and their aptitudes and capacities with tyrannical
despotism.
1946-06-16 -
False alternative / Faced with the false “despotism-anarchy”
alternative, totalitarians of all stripes preferred despotism to react against
anarchy. Did they get it right? Of course not. Because they once again failed to
free themselves from the wrong alternative. They stuck to it, and fleeing
liberalism, they slipped from the peak of the dilemma to the bottom of the
abyss. They did not understand that it was not a question of choosing between
two precipices but looking for the Way that does not lead to chasms but Heaven.

is serious; while man is frivolous / The intellectual life is intimately
connected to the spiritual / To broaden your vision and strengthen your
personality, you should enrich your spirit through literary classics that
express fundamental characteristics of the human soul.
1979-06-09 -
Right? Or Left? / The trilogy of 1789: liberty, equality and fraternity.
God did not create terrifying and monstrous inequalities. Rather He created
inequalities that were proportional to the nature, well being and progress of
each creature and adequate for the general ordering of the universe. This is
Christian inequality.
1979-11 -
Shaking Sugarloaf / Unilateral justice is just as absurd as a scale with
one arm taken off. On the other hand, from the fact that all egalitarian regimes
are intrinsically unjust, I do not conclude that all inequality is necessarily
just.

1964-11-06 - How
‘Peaceful Coexistence’ Enables Russia to Invade Other Nations. A Lesson on
Private Property and the Natural Law. The Freedom of the Church in the Communist
State / Instead of trusting God, placing our hope in Him, and
asking Him to save us from nuclear catastrophe, we trusted the word of Russians,
handed over power to them, and opened the gates of our countries to them.
Instead of making a pact with the thrice-holy and infinitely faithful God,
asking Him to descend with His Angels visibly or invisibly to save us, we placed
our trust in the powers of darkness, saying, “here are our hands, handcuff them;
here are the keys to our homes, governments and institutions: keep it all. We
trust in you; you will do us no harm.” Could such sin not be the cause of an
atomic deluge? Would God’s mercy subject the world to nuclear catastrophe if
that huge sin did not happen? Imagine a people who dare to say: “I do not know
how God will operate. I do not know how He will save us. But I say NO, that is
not legitimate! I trust in God and in Our Lady who assists me, in the angels and
patroness saints of nations who defend me. I say NO! Let the world fall on me. I
will be faithful and say NO unto death!"

- Crusade of Enthusiasm
-
"Pride. What
does pride mean here? Without a doubt and above all, pride is a feeling, a state
of soul in which the person has a faith that doubts nothing, a solid and
unalloyed enthusiasm. (...) What was the fundamental reason for
this pride? It was, above all, the Roman Catholic and apostolic faith. The
Crusader had faith, the knight-errant had faith. He knew that the Catholic faith
is the true Faith; he believed in it with all his strength and fully drew all
its consequences. He had no doubt, and that certainty caused a great light to be
born in his soul".
