Today, March 16, 2022, here are my simple thoughts on the past two years' gross failure against the worldwide plague, so-called Covid-19 or Coronavirus, more properly called "The Chinese Flu," and the narrative thereof.
The "lock-downs" and the mask and vaccine requirements failed to control The Chinese Flu.
"The science" that forces obviously ineffective "solutions" is unscientific and illogical. Such irrational measures have been therefore enforced by constant propaganda, censorship and unjust mandates and "laws."
Meanwhile, in idolatrous adoration of this false idol "the science," our religious authorities, philosophers, politicians, political analysts and investigative journalists, have largely relinquished their serious responsibilities in the pursuit of truth, and in their duty to defend and promote the legitimate and necessary rights and responsibilities of each individual person and of every group of persons, beginning with the smallest, families/neighborhoods and every community.
No crisis exempts anyone from the moral law which requires each person and group of persons to personally judge what is reasonable to do or not to do for his own spiritual and physical well-being and that of his neighbor.
The Mother of all science is Theology because she considers the universal and unchanging Truth whereas technological science is always changing in its (presumably honest) attempt to understand and address changing needs. "Science," in all her legitimate efforts, therefore, should not leave the sure mooring of truth. Science always needs guidance, especially to determine what is good against what is evil.
The question of morality (of what is good or evil in human action) is a question of religion, not of science. The relative worth of physical health, one's own and that of one's neighbor, is to be weighed, therefore, by religion not by "science." Theology is greater than technology and all practical sciences. In the first question of his treatise on theology, Saint Thomas Aquinas indicates that necessary supremacy of divine science.
"I answer that, Since sacred doctrine is a science which is partly speculative and partly practical, it transcends all others speculative and practical. Now one speculative science is said to be nobler than another, either by reason of its greater certitude, or by reason of the higher worth of its subject-matter. In both these respects this science surpasses other speculative sciences; in point of greater certitude, because other sciences derive their certitude from the natural light of human reason, which can err; whereas this derives its certitude from the light of divine knowledge, which cannot be misled: in point of the higher worth of its subject-matter because this science treats chiefly of those things which by their sublimity transcend human reason; while other sciences consider only those things which are within reason's grasp. Of the practical sciences, that one is nobler which is ordained to a further purpose, as political science is nobler than military science; for the good of the army is directed to the good of the State. But the purpose of this science, in so far as it is practical, is eternal bliss; to which as to an ultimate end the purposes of every practical science are directed. Hence it is clear that from every standpoint, it is nobler than other sciences." Saint Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, I, Q.1, Art.5, c.
