Seen from a critical perspective, modern “progress” from the deification of Man to that of his machines is the liberation of mankind into a trap. FROM MAN TO MACHINE Our lives are already shaped by machines. Socialised on algorithms, our food and food-for-thought are produced by a constantly refining technique and technology on whose products we increasingly rely for our sustenance and our sense of reality. Yet the  progress  of the last century towards a  utopian technological society  seems to have  hit the brick wall of reality . The  consensus politics  that has managed the West by this technique has produ...

Chris Jackson is promoting Fr. Wathen: "I spent years in Feeneyite/Sedevacantist/SSPX churches (I was baptized by Fr. James Wathen, for crying out loud). I know these people and I find most of them to be quite nasty.

The Annulment Machine, the Dialogue Industry, and the Roman Rite Front How the postconciliar system dissolves what it can’t openly deny Chris Jackson Dec 17... ... Fr. Wathen’s blunt diagnosis of post-conciliar annulments in the JPII era is still true today The late Fr. James Wathen’s  discussion of the annulment crisis , even in the time of JPII, was deliberately unvarnished: he called diocesan marriage tribunals “annulment committees” and accused them of “conjuring up grounds” for nullity, often disregarding the spouse who insists the marriage was real. https://theradtrad.blogspot.com/2014/07/it-just-wont-go-away.html It Just Won't Go Away Feeneyism.

Villey: ****rights claimed are ultimately based on subjective whim**** Villey is not content to criti­cize abuses. Rather, he presents the whole modern attempt to base a system of jurisprudence on an affirmation of individual rights as funda­ mentally misguided. He describes this modern enterprise as Utopian, arbitrary and sterile. It is Utopian because the supposed absolute rights are fictions; they usually do not exist in actual law or in real life. Rights theo­ ries are arbitrary because the rights claimed are ultimately based on subjective whim; they lead on to a debased understanding of justice as "nothing but a label you attach to your own subjective preferences." And modern rights theories are sterile because they cannot form the basis of a coherent jurisprudence. 33
