One main thing I would add is that this was NOT an invasion... it was an intercession to curb Ukraine's extreme violence and genocide against ethnic Russians in the Dunbass region..
Tyranny Emerges And The Church Lets It Happen. By Father Daniel Nolan FSSP
This homily (video below) was delivered by Father Daniel Nolan, Priestly Fraternity of St Peter, on the Feast of the Holy Family. Youtube deleted it. Transcript.
To the Church belongs the right always and everywhere to announce moral principles including those pertaining to the social order and to make judgments on human affairs to the extent that they are required by the fundamental rights of the human person or the salvation of souls.
These words are taken from the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Catholic Church. In the continuing COVID-19 pandemic we see much social unrest. We see lockdowns, vaccine mandates, social restrictions and so on. There is no little disagreement about the necessity, efficacy and even the morality of such measures. We also see disagreement about who should be involved in the discussion of such measures.
But as I just mentioned above: It is the Church's right and even her duty to be involved in politics indeed in every aspect of human life in so far as it relates to the rights of man and to the salvation of souls. Very sadly, I see many basic human rights being violated in the current response to the Covid-19 pandemic. And I do see danger to the salvation of souls and therefore I must speak out in times of crisis.
There is a temptation to set aside principles for the sake of expediency. When fear is high people are apt to take measures more drastic than they otherwise would have taken in calmer times. It is precisely in times of fear and panic that cooler heads must prevail. That fundamental human rights be safeguarded even more carefully.
I quote again from the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church: This is not a digression, a convenience or an interference. It is the Church's right to proclaim the Gospel within the context of society. In the complex worlds of business, finance, politics, law, culture and social communications.
This is at the same time both a right and a duty. The Church cannot forsake this responsibility without denying herself and her fidelity to Christ. Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel (1 Cor 9,16).
These words from the Church’s social doctrine she draws from not just the wisdom of the current age but from wisdom of the past. The Church in her wisdom provides a reminder to those of us in these times - of former times - when there was less fear. The Church gives us an opportunity to think outside of the box of right now. I do see the modern world in the grip of a mental echo chamber, a box outside of which it seems incapable of thinking.
