satire as a modernist notion

To diagnose the fundamental error of liberalism, we must first presuppose a proper anthropology of man as a political animal. Any political theory rooted in the assumption that man is an isolated atom, consisting of protons and neutrons, is doomed to absurdity and failure — for man, qua rational animal, is significantly bigger than that, and is thus ill-suited to constitute the fundamental building-blocks of the chemical elements.

Liberalism — with its absurd insistence on Ockhamistic nominalism, Cartesian body-self dualism, and lurid half-naked scenes in movies that are rivalled in concupiscence only by the theological perversions of Vatican II — is doomed from the very outset, having succumbed to the Pelagian error of Gnosticism and the Kantian error of Humeanism.

Having abandoned the lex naturalis and a proper Thomistic metaphysics of essentia, children reared under today’s liberal order are helplessly indoctrinated in a manner contrary their natural ratio, and cannot even read Latin in a manner befitting their natures as rational animals in potentia.

Observe the disastrous consequences of this modern philosophy: a world of communion in the hand, and of two men holding each other’s; a world of celebrated concupiscence and concupiscent celebration; a world of “so-called” “same-sex” “marriage”.

Shall the Left be vanquished by sheer political power? The very notion is absurd — an absurd notion of the absurdity of modernism. The Left shall only lose power when our culture replaces the Finnis-Grisez New Natural Law Theory with the Thomistic Classical Natural Law Theory, embraces a hylomorphic politics of the common good, and revives the Traditional Latin Mass of yore. Only then shall the lex humana serve the bonum commune, as the Founding Fathers intended.
