@UnTradi Corrijo no fue Pío IX, fue Pío XI específicamente en su encíclica Rerum Ecclesiae 82 (1926)

¿Por qué será que muchos católicos insisten en llamar hermanos a los que profesan herejías y a los apóstatas?

@sicutthomass Pius XI said "The first and most necessary duty of all Catholics is to cooperate with the Church in her work of saving souls." — Rerum Ecclesiae (1926) "Catholics must not only belong to the Church, but must belong to it actively, by word and deed." — Radio Buenos Aires (1934)

Pius XI crushes the impious Leo 🦁

Sous le pontificat de Pie XI, dans un décret publié le 25 mars 1928, le Saint-Office a officiellement condamné l'antisémitisme. Quant aux discriminations raciales, dans son encyclique Rerum Ecclesiae, Pie XI rappelait que c'était une erreur de croire qu'il existe des hommes d'une race inférieure. Du reste, si la criminalité était liée à un déficit d'intelligence, alors les prisons seraient peuplés de trisomiques. D'ailleurs, c'est aussi une erreur de croire que tous les criminels sont forcements des idiots. Par exemple, certains tueurs en série (comme Edmund Kemper et Ted Bundy) étaient dotés d'un Q.I assez élevé.

Révérend Père Joaquín Sáenz y Arriaga : « L’antisémitisme raciste et matérialiste, n'a jamais existé chez les chrétiens. Le fondateur du christianisme était juif ; non seulement ses apôtres et ses premiers fidèles étaient juifs, mais l'étaient aussi d'innombrables défenseurs et champions illustres de la cause chrétienne. Le juif, du fait qu'il est juif, n'est pas fatalement poussé au mal ; il peut être et est sujet de bien. Jésus-Christ est mort pour eux aussi ; eux aussi, même avant nous, ont reçu la vocation divine de la foi et du salut. L'Église catholique condamne l'antisémitisme, comme elle condamne toute discrimination raciale, comme elle condamne tous les crimes du Communisme et de la Maçonnerie. Mais le Christianisme est l'antithèse totale du cabalisme et du talmudisme qui mènent une lutte séculaire contre le Christ, le Christ Rédempteur et le Christ Mystique, nourrissent l'ambition d'une domination universelle sur tous les peuples et sur toutes les nations et perpétuent la Synagogue de Satan, ce Sanhédrin qui condamna à mort Jésus de Nazareth. Ce serait un mensonge historique de croire et de soutenir que tous les juifs, du fait qu'ils sont juifs, sont fatalement déterminés à professer le cabalisme et le talmudisme, à lutter pendant des siècles pour détruire le Christianisme et asservir la Chrétienté ; mais ce serait aussi un déni complet de l'histoire que de recouvrir du voile pieux de la fraternité universelle et de la charité chrétienne, cette secte cabaliste et talmudique qui, parmi les juifs, poursuit une telle entreprise satanique depuis vingt siècles. La Bible, Jésus-Christ, les Apôtres dans leurs Épîtres, l'Église, ses Docteurs, ses Conciles, ses Papes, sa Tradition, son histoire vingt fois séculaire, ont condamné cette secte satanique, parce qu'elle est l'antithéisme, l'antichristianisme, l'esclavage des peuples et des individus, à travers ses principales agences : la Maçonnerie et le Communisme. […] En réalité, les juifs, en tant que race et en tant que peuple, ont toujours trouvé, malgré les crimes et la conspiration permanente de la Synagogue, leur plus grande protection et leur meilleure défense dans l'Église catholique, lorsque les gouvernements et les peuples, devenus conscients de leurs méfaits, les ont expulsés et persécutés. »

@PhilosopherGro1 @GroyperTeutonic @CountV0nTilly In Rerum Ecclesiae Pope Pius XI spoke about this very situation, (of missionaries leaving). And he came up with the exact opposite conclusion.

@TridentineBrew Pius XI in his great missionary encyclical Rerum Ecclesiae: "Anyone who looks upon these natives as members of an inferior race or as men of low mentality makes a grievous mistake."

Francis says proselytism is the greatest sin a missionary can commit. Pope Pius XI said we must "strive to increase by every means within our power ... to bring under the rule of the gentle Christ as many other men as possible..." (Rerum Ecclesiae, n. 5). papalencyclicals.net/pius11/p11rere…

“Since Jesus Christ has proclaimed that the special sign of discipleship with Him is that we "have love one for another" can we give a mark of greater love for our neighbors than to assist them...by instructing them in the true faith of Christ?” Pius XI, Rerum Ecclesiae.

It seems Pope Pius the XI taught in his RERUM ECCLESIAE that no race is intellectually superior to another intrinsically: "Anyone who looks upon these natives as members of an inferior race or as men of low mentality makes a grievous mistake" & "...are equal to the other students in ability &...frequently even surpass them…lack of the ability to understand among those who live in the very heart of certain barbarous countries, this is largely due to the conditions under which they exist, for since their daily needs are so limited, they are not often called upon to make use of their intellects." Pope Paul VI in his GAUDIUM ET SPES seems to along with Pius XI attribute the diversity among intelligence to resources, he also thinks we should aim to eliminate All types of discrimination social or cultural that are based on race and other characteristics "...all men possess a rational soul...they have the same nature...the basic equality of all must receive increasingly greater recognition." & "True, all men are not alike from the POV of varying physical power and the diversity of intellectual and moral RESOURCES…Nevertheless, with respect to the fundamental rights of the person, every type of discrimination, whether social or cultural, whether based on sex, race, color, social condition, language or religion, is to be overcome and eradicated as contrary to God's intent."

Papal teaching against racial anti-realists: “The Church hails with joy and follows with her maternal blessing every method of guidance and care which aims at a wise and orderly evolution of particular forces and tendencies having their origin in the individual character of each race, provided that they are not opposed to the duties incumbent on men from their unity of origin and common destiny.” - Pope Pius XII, Summi Pontificatus

@AndreasKoureas_ "We must judge Churchill against the confines of his time. Historical context is important." This is from Pope Pius XI in 1926, (Rerum Ecclesiae). Pius XI was older than Churchill too.

Though Churchill subscribed to the view of a hierarchy of races, which was considered scientific fact in the West at the time & we today know it to be absurd, he was a paternal imperialist. This is far different to the Hitlerites, for example, who thought you could enslave, murder and oppress peoples they deemed to be inferior. Sir Winston Churchill saw it as Britain's moral duty to uplift and support the peoples and tribes of the Empire. Yes, this is extremely condescending - but it isn't the abusive and harsh attitude that is sometimes mistakenly attributed to Churchill. We must judge Churchill against the confines of his time. Historical context is important. (Also important to remember that a view of racial hierarchies was not exclusive to the West during Churchill's lifetime. It was widespread across much of the globe. For example, many African tribes believed themselves to be racially superior to others; a crux of Japanese Imperialism was based on this assertion etc. etc.)
