Means-End Problem

Good thread. https://t.co/bEuivgKr27

One can legislate what is in accordance with the Natural Law and thus in consonance with the ultimate end, but that formality or ratio of the means cannot be legislated.

A Reminder: Confucianism Is Allied to Statism

in practice, if not in spirit, and "imperial Confucianism" is not such a distortion of Confucianism as some modern proponents of contemporary Confucianism make it out to be.

How does the American administrative state look from across the Pacific? In the new @AmericanAffrs, Daniel Bell (@DanielB89913888) puts @Vermeullarmine & @CassSunstein’s Law & Leviathan in dialogue with Han Feizi as well as Confucian political thought 👇 https://t.co/e6d25hj8vO

Deserving of a Popular Cult

And the modern Roman saint-making machine wasn't involved in his canonization so there's that for the credibility of the cult.

But this is a take that will be unpopular among the Latin integralists: St. Thomas Becket was a victim of a theology of ecclesial authority that hadn't been fully worked out and yet was nonetheless asserted and practiced as dogma. Was a conflict between a Christian secular authority (especially in the form of a over-grasping monarchy) and ecclesial authority inevitable? Probably. Could it have been resolved by other means? What if the Church had not assisted in the development of Christian monarchy in the first place, and had chosen a different path?

I found this post from The Josias which perfectly reflects how St. Thomas Becket wouuld be portrayed by Latin integralists:

Book of Leo

The so-called "Book of Leo" is an obscure work of some importance in the development of contemporary integralism. It used to be very difficult to find, but I've just discovered that the first chapters have actually been available online since 2016: https://t.co/7rjnRYfGF8
