They won the cultural war, I was myself raised as a progressist and I was educated into a catholic school and studied law on a catholic university.

I break not only with progressivism, but with socialism by reading the other side, I begun to see that progressivism is just a revolutionary mind and became a classical liberal and after this a conservative.

I was studying conservatism and I realized that it's no different than pelagianism because faith, tradition and God is defended as a means to an end and not an end by itself, it's to build or preserve a better society, this is immanentism.

The problem is that God is true happiness and He is transcendent, last day I answered to people on Telegram.

"Are you conservative or a progressive?"

"I am a catholic."

Hi guys! I've just been reclassified from Capitalist Paradise to Corporate Bordello. Does anyone know which could be the reason for that? I mean: does anyone know which is the discriminatory factor?

The dust I did come from did not exist of it's own ambition nor shall the dust I shall return to exist because it wishes it be so. That's the question then, is the worth of a human being based on the infinite love and generosity of God and Him making humans in His image, or is it based off of what can we get out of people, what we humans bring to the table? If man does try to be his own god he is but dust that has reached out to Heaven and yet so failed to climb up, forever trampled under fortune's wheel. Yet God did come to man that He may raise man up from the filth man did throw himself into and make man more like Him. I sometimes am told by people of how selfish God is. Who was it that took the dust of the Earth and shaped it into a man, Who was it that created a soul of the man, Who was it that took nothing and made man from that nothing? Truly I have come from nothing and have been given an offer to be given even more than I have now. Some will say that God is selfish. No, we humans are. Humans act against God's will, humans take what they should never take.

Man is not meant to take from his neighbour and seek only profit but rather man is made to love because man was made by God Who is Love.

O Fortuna
Velut luna
Statu variabilis
Semper crescis
Aut decrescis
Vita detestabilis
Nunc obdurat
Et tunc curat
Ludo mentis aciem,
Egestatem,
Potestatem
Dissolvit ut glaciem.
Sors immanis
Et inanis,
Rota tu volubilis
Status malus
Vana salus
Semper dissolubilis
Obumbrata
Et velata
Michi quoque niteris
Nunc per ludum
Dorsum nudum
Fero tui sceleris.
Sors salutis
Et virtutis
Michi nunc contraria,
Est affectus
Et defectus
Semper in angaria.
Hac in hora
Sine mora
Corde pulsum tangite
Quod per sortem
Sternit fortem
Mecum omnes plangite

O Fortune,
like the moon
you are changeable,
ever waxing,
ever waning,
hateful life
first oppresses
and then soothes
as fancy takes it;
poverty
and power
it melts them like ice
fate – monstrous
and empty,
you whirling wheel,
you are malevolent,
well-being is vain
and always fades to nothing,
shadowed
and veiled
you plague me too;
now through the game
I bring my bare back
to your villainy
fate is against me
in health
and virtue,
driven on
and weighted down,
always enslaved.
so at this hour
without delay
pluck the vibrating strings;
since Fate
strikes down the strong man,
everyone weep with me!

When I did not exist He breathed life into me, when I was thirsty He gave me water, when I was hungry He gave me food, when I needed a place to live He did provide, when I was sick He healed me, when I was lonely He gave me friends, when I needed loving guidance He gave me parents, when I did not know what to do He gave me His teachings, when I turned against Him I rejected Him, when I asked for mercy He gave it to me, He looked at me with pity and did bear the Cross for me, when I was afraid of death He overcame it, when I wished to be with Him He gave Himself in the Blessed Sacrament.

A song that helps me reflect on God's generosity:

Draw us forth, God of all creation.
Draw us forward and away from limited certainty
into the immense world of your love.
Give us the capacity to even for a moment
taste the richness of the feast you give us.
Give us the peace to live with uncertainty,
with questions,
with doubts.
Help us to experience the resurrection anew
with open wonder and an increasing ability
to see you in the people of Easter.

The Star Kingdom of Prudentias

There is finally a good thing on this pandemics.

Easter since I've born is more about chocolate eggs than Jesus Christ, as a person said mocking Christianity:

"I love Christ, when he born I get a present, when he die I got chocolate."

Well not now, due to pandemics most people don't have money to buy chocolate and the lockdown rules forbid markets from selling non-basic products, it's all about food and medication, anything out of this must be brought by internet.

Most people still caring only about the chocolate and holiday as if that's all about.

I see something different now despite all of this, part of the population begun to really take Easter for real, at least making a Christian meditation about what really matters, even non-religious people became introspective and begun to think about what really matters in life, in a dark period people are searching for light.

I can't be naive despite all of this, the uncertainty brings chaos and people are desperate, crimes skyrocketed and social collapse is real, this night I don't have electricity because people steal electricity equipment and cables on the streets on midnight, a lot people is going to drugs and the lockdown don't forbid alcohol because this may let people angered, I was extremely calm despite everything.

I miss the mass, the church here is not doing it for sanitation measures, a lot of relapsed catholics begun to miss the Mass for the first time, the priests are making mass on streaming or on TV, live, I even watched Pope Francis mass on streaming, we are facing an evil that don't discriminate people, a lot of extremely rich people died, young people are now dying with more frequency too.

People are facing this evil choosing between two ways, extreme nihilism or a Christian or at least Christian-like optimism by finding a meaning on all this collapse.

As Chesterton says, in the end it's just a choice between light and darkness, most people still on overpriced chocolates but I am not in a position to judge them, but there is more catholics than.ever rediscovering their faith, other christians and people going to find God inside their isolation, I don't really expected that.

Our enemies are not really ideologies, our enemy is nihilism, we must fight it on the hardest battlefield, our mind and souls, we must keep finding meaning.

It was the question about the dude on the government who had a same sex case and you choose to keep them with mercy?

I mean I also made it to be as chaotic as possible so I eventually just let that nation cease to exist.

One of the things that I sometimes do as a temporary boost is to put the economy on the command of an AI.

The problem is that it puts socialism as one of your policies to the point of the issues having communist flavors as if you are on USSR.

The good thing is that the AI itself on an issue were people want capitalism back say to you that it is not capable of dealing with all economy, yes, the AI wants to resign the command of the economy, so I choose that, I keep technology rising with some inequality rising.

Once there was a socialistic like issue with AI command of the economy that was about the food ration of the workers, on one of the options a chef says that it's better for all to have freedom of what food they will make, I choose this and accidentally put capitalism back earlier.

The Most Loyal Catholic Union of Castle Federation

My dear friends and fellow bretheren in Christ,

It is with resolve that I come to you as a fellow member of the Catholic community in NS. There have been many that have strived to further the Catholic voice in NationStates, but never have we had a strong and united region and government that can keep such a voice and power stable on the world stage. I think of the giants that have throughout NS history taken it as a vocation to say what is hard and oppose the status quo that so many larger regions tend to maintain. I specifically want to respect figures such as Christian Democrats, Aurelia, and United Massachusetts. It can feel these days like less and less brave voices protect and propagate the Catholic faith and all the truths that flow from it particularly in matters of law and political thought.

For those of you who do not know me well, I am Castle Federation also commonly known as Wonderess. I began the Core of Catholics Discord over two years ago to create a community for Catholics in NS. Now, I wish to form and reignite a government for the region of Catholic so that we may oppose what is unjust and contrary to the Gospel in the NS international sphere while affirming what is good and truly aligned with the sacramental life.

I ask you to consider joining us on this mission to form something truly beautiful and holy, to participate in Catholic's new regional government so that a greater good still might be realized here in NS. If you feel called to this new journey, this challenge, then you can join us in the Core of Catholics Discord and apply for citizenship where you can aid us in making these important first few decisions in governance. The link can be found in the World Factbook or here below.

May God be with you, and may you find final victory in Christ!
