In his harsh criticism of the notion of subjective right (SR), Michel Villey argued that (A) the SR did not exist in Roman law, but that (B) emerged at the dawn of Western modernity as the main legal consequence of nominalism that William de Ockham introduced in philosophy and theology. And, furthermore, that (C) in Ockham it would be possible to already find a legal theory in which the SR appears as the main meaning of the law. Each of these historical theses has been strongly discussed and almost all have been overcome. However, this article attempts to show that, beyond his historical inaccuracies, Villey was right in the central philosophical core of his thesis: the necessary association between nominalism and the notion of SR that has been imposed on legal modernity Although the discussion about the history of this concept is lengthy and exceeds the scope and intention of these pages, it is necessary to acknowledge that the author who most stimulated this discussion during the 20th century was Michel Villey. The core of the thesis defended by Villey consisted of the assertions that (a) subjective rights did not exist in Roman law,6 and that, instead, (b) they emerged at the dawn of Western modernity as the main legal consequence of the nominalism introduced into philosophy and theology, definitively, by William of Ockham.7 Furthermore, Villey maintains that (c) a legal theory can already be found in Ockham's work.

Aunque la discusión sobre la historia de esta noción es larga y excede las po-sibilidades e intención de estas páginas, es menester reconocer que el autor quemás animó esta discusión durante el pasado siglo XX fue Michel Villey. Y el nú-cleo de la tesis defendida por Villey consistía en las armaciones de que, (a) elderecho subjetivo no existía en el Derecho Romano6y que, en cambio, (b) surgeen los albores de la modernidad occidental como la principal consecuencia jurí-dica del nominalismo que introduce en la losofía y la teología, denitivamente,Guillermo de Ockham7. Es más, sostiene Villey que (c) ya en Ockham es posi-ble encontrar una teoría jurídica

https://spartacus-educational.com/JFKdavisD.htm Deborah Davis is a journalist who has published articles in the  New York Times ,  Village Voice  and  Ramparts .

Vox Cantoris vs. Aqua

The Catholic Monitor commenter Aqua had this to say to the Vox Cantoris website: Aqua said… Fred, your topic here reminds me of a dust-up, a few days ago, on Vox Cantoris. He asserted that it is our duty as Christians to wear masks to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass if the government tells us we must, or they will close our Churches. My response to him was that I find it inconceivable that an orthodox Catholic, such as himself, would ever submit to unjust dictates from secular government over how we approach Our Lord in Holy Mass. My response to him was that the Mass belongs to Catholics and we decide, within the bounds of Tradition, and in accord with the Word of Jesus, how we conduct ourselves in Holy Mass. Only one authority prevails over Mass and that is our God and the Sacred Tradition given by Him to guide us in all times and places. Understand, there is nothing inherently wrong with wearing a mask to Mass. But there is EVERYTHING wrong with wearing a symbol...

https://coconote.app/notes/1eef4468-3436-4f1a-a3e0-605134efdd8a Overview Dr. Grace Prescott addresses nocturia—frequent nighttime urination—explaining its risks, debunking common myths, and presenting the ASIM method and supporting techniques to help reclaim uninterrupted sleep. The Problem of Nocturia Nocturia refers to waking repeatedly at night to urinate, affecting up to 70% of adults over 60. It increases the risk of falls, cognitive decline, heart strain, and emotional distress. Causes include reduced nighttime ADH hormone, decreased bladder capacity, and fluid redistribution from swollen legs. Common Myths and Mistakes Drinking less water during the day can worsen nocturia by irritating the bladder and concentrating urine. Most cases are not caused by a small bladder, but by excessive nighttime urine production. Alcohol before bed both suppresses ADH and acts as a diuretic, increasing nighttime urination and disrupting sleep quality. The ASIM Hydration Method Adjust  hydrati...
