Catholic Theocracy: Difference between revisions

CathTheo seeks to have the values of the Catholic faith upheld as the law and to have a state very closely tied to the Catholic Church.

On 27th of February of the year 380 AD, the ''[[w:Edict_of_Thessalonica|Edict of Thessalonica]]'' was issued by emperor Theodosius I, making Christianity the state religion of the [[File:SPQR.png]] Roman Empire, outlawing all other religions and legalizing the prosecution of their followers, establishing the first de facto Catholic Theocracy in the world.

The Papal states were dissolved in 1870 during the Unification Wars after Rome was captured and Italy was unified. But despite this, Vatican City was created in 1929 as a deal with [[File:Fash.png]] the fascist government. Vatican City controls less than a square kilometre of land. Despite the small size of the only remaining catholic theocracy, Catholicism still has a lot of power due to having more than 1 billion followers.

'''Traditionalist Catholicism''' is the set of beliefs, practices, customs, traditions, liturgical forms, devotions, and presentations of Catholic teaching that existed in the Catholic Church before the liberal reforms of the Second Vatican Council. In particular attachment to the Tridentine Mass, also known as the Traditional Latin Mass. Many traditional catholics tend to be fundamentalists and oppose progressive ideals.

'''Catholic Social Teaching''', commonly abbreviated '''CST''', is an area of Catholic doctrine concerning matters of human dignity and the common good in society. The ideas address oppression, the role of the state, subsidiarity, social organization, concern for social justice, and issues of wealth distribution. Catholic social teaching is distinctive in its consistent critiques of modern social and political ideologies both of the left and of the right: liberalism, communism, anarchism, feminism, atheism, socialism, fascism, capitalism, and Nazism have all been condemned, at least in their pure forms, by several popes since the late nineteenth century.

Human dignity is one principle of Catholic social thought. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, "Being in the image of God, the human individual possesses the dignity of a person, who is not just something, but someone. He is capable of self-knowledge, of self-possession facts, and of freely giving himself and entering into communion with other persons. And he is called by grace to a covenant with his Creator, to offer him a response of faith and love that no other creature can give. Pope Benedict XVI has taught that "love for widows and orphans, prisoners, and the sick and needy of every kind, is as essential as the ministry of the sacraments and preaching of the Gospel". This preferential option for the poor and vulnerable includes all who are marginalized in our nation and beyond—unborn children, persons with disabilities, the elderly and terminally ill, and victims of injustice and oppression.

'''Gremialismo''', or '''Guildism''', is a religious, conservative, and social ideology based on the social doctrine of the Church, [[File:Necon.png]] [[Neoconservatism|neoconservatism]], [[File:Anticommunism.png]] anti-communism and [[File:ChristNat.png]] [[Religious Nationalism|Catholic nationalism]] that calls for the [[File:Apolit.png]] depoliticization of intermediate bodies, being against which political parties or political ideas enter civil society.

*Both ideologies and political parties have to place their action at the level of the leadership of the State.
