When man believes he has not dominion but domination over Nature, when he thinks he may do as he likes with Nature regardless of its immutable laws and its unalterable facts, when he thinks creation is manipulable at his will, then does he say in deeds what his unseen master said in words: I will ascend into heaven… I will be like the most High. It turns out, then, that a fundamental tenet of the New Nonsense is nothing new at all. It is simply the creature once again proclaiming himself the Creator.

There is something sinisterly psychopathic in what is happening in Italy with regard to the Latin Mass, and it is the envy of those who are bankrupt: in the collapse of their utopias, in the cold winter which the radiant ‘conciliar spring’ has turned into, it is too painful to face reality and honestly admit their mistakes. Instead they try to destroy the little that still works, like the zeal and decorum of the celebrations of the ancient rite and the flourishing of vocations in traditional religious institutes. The case of the Franciscans of the Immaculate and the hatred of the immemorial liturgy are a clear example of this insane frenzy of crazy castaways, who try to turn over the few rafts that still float, rather than thinking of climbing into them or building new ones.

A bill introduced by Representative Glenn Grothman of Wisconsin, under which only citizens would be eligible for means-tested welfare benefits deserves everyone’s support. If such a law were enacted, legal immigrants could enter the country without having to prove that they wouldn’t become public charges, because immigrants would no longer have access to welfare-state largesse. Only by becoming a naturalized citizen could any immigrant collect a dime of welfare.
