Catholic and Enjoying It!
and Caesar becomes the god. Having just informed us that the government is the only thing we all belong to, the Left now moves on to the inevitable symbolism of President Narcissus, in which we find ourselves as many members in the One‘ body.
No wonder he is making war on the Church. Caesar is a jealous god. All those good corporal and spiritual works of mercy that video talks about (as well as an admixture of acts of worship offered to Moloch) are being appropriated by President Narcissus and other worshippers of the state as purely human achievements rooted in human pride and not in divine love. A nation that attempts this will discover the truth of the biblical principle that even our righteous deeds are like filthy rags.
That’s not to denigrate the generous impulse motivating the people who want to do good for their neighbor. But it is absolutely to denounce the secular messianic evil that labors to divert that work from being an act of love to God and neighbor and turn it into a prideful messianic claim by this most narcissistic and messianic president in our history. I absolutely refuse to be a servant to our President or any other elected official. He is *my* servant. I elected him. He works for me as does the rest of the state. It is fascism, not American representative democracy and emphatically not Catholic teaching which says that our dignity and our rights come from the generosity of Caesar and not the hand of God. We find meaning and purpose from serving God and neighbor, not Big Brother.
