De Defensione Fidei

(Conspiracy Nation, IV/IX/MMV) -- Non metum habere. If you learned English, you can learn Latin: Latin is easier than English.

Probitas laudatur et alget. (Juvenal) The Hotel, Motel Management crowd just can't wait to weigh in: after all, they've been to college! But first, they must pass through a simple intelligence test: they must learn Latin.

This publication, Conspiracy Nation, may slowly be migrating to Latin, for reasons outlined in "Let's Learn Latin" (http://www.shout.net/~bigred/Latin0408.html) . Eventually, Conspiracy Nation could be entirely in Latin.

In "Pope Frenzy Hits World" (http://www.shout.net/~bigred/PopeFrenzy.html) the rumor that John F. Kennedy had defied a Vatican infiltrated and taken over by Gramscian Communists ("Illuminati") was reported. The Communist plan was to ruin America by luring her into Vietnam then springing a trap. JFK, a loyal Roman Catholic, got wind of what had happened and tried to turn things around. For that, the Vatican legal machinery, taken over by God-hating Communists ("Satanists"), was turned against him. Canon Law, based on De Defensione Fidei Catholicae adversus Anglicanae by Francisco Suarez, falsely condemned JFK as an apostate. The Christi Militi was unleashed and John F. Kennedy was assassinated.

The tabula vera of Suarez is yet to be obtained by Conspiracy Nation. Partial summary encapsulations of De Defensione Fidei however redeem Suarez from imputation. His book reportedly challenged the concept of "Divine Right of Kings," where kings must have been authorized by God or else they wouldn't have become kings. Not so, argued Suarez: all men are equal before God; earthly power is properly held by the body of men; kingly power is derived from that collective humanity. This subversive argument by the Spanish philosopher and theologian so angered King James of England that he ordered De Defensione Fidei burned. In Paris also the book was prohibited by the Parliament of Paris in 1614.

Belonging to Scholasticism, the School of Suarism traces the origin of evil to an ambition for hypostatic union by the fallen angels. (See Conspiracy Nation, "Origin Of Evil," http://www.shout.net/~bigred/Origin.html ) Hypostasis means "what lies beneath" and was used by Greek philosophers "to denote reality as distinguished from appearances." At one time, hypostasis was synonymous with ousia, signifying that God the Son is not of the same essence as God the Father. Following the Council of Nicaea (325 AD), that view was shunned and headed east, mutating into Islam. (See Conspiracy Nation, "Evolution Of Christianity" http://www.shout.net/~bigred/EvolChrist.html ) When "the Word was made flesh" and, according to belief, God incarnated in the person of Jesus Christ, what was the nature of this union between spirit and matter? It was a Hypostatic Union ruled the Council of Chalcedon (451 AD). (See "Hypostatic Union," Catholic Encyclopedia, http://www.newadvent.org ) So Francisco Suarez reportedly saw the origin of evil beginning somehow with angels seeking a mysterious unity with flesh.

Antonio Gramsci, a founder of the Italian Communist Party, strategized a "march through the institutions," a "war of position." The War of Position is "a culture war in which anti-capitalist elements seek to gain a dominant voice in mass media, mass organizations, and educational institutions." Critics of Gramsci's concept of "cultural hegemony" note that "it tends to imply a false consciousness of the working class, which suggests that the masses of people are gullible and easily manipulated." (Wikipedia online reference, "Cultural hegemony") On the other hand, the corporate capitalists themselves subjugate the people through the same concept, themselves constantly promoting a false reality. In the center had been the Catholic Church, once an arbitrating force between Capital and Labor. Then, according to rumor, it was infiltrated and subverted by "Illuminati" (Communists). A counter-infiltration may have occurred under the direction of William Casey, CIA chief and Knight of Malta, assisted by the P-2 masonic lodge, and resulting in the elevation of Karol Wojtyla into the papacy.

Now, with the passing of Pope John Paul II, behind the Kyrie Eleisons and the incense, what hypostatic struggles of global import may be boiling?
