I saw one Fuentes slave in this thread asked, idiotically, "What about Fuentes isn't Christian?" Aside from his counseling that lying is a virtue, hatred of women, catboi dates, lusting after troons, etc., let's consider that the two faced faggot does not go to Mass and has changed his story as to whether or not he was Confirmed in the Church.
He is an IVF child, and while that is not his fault, it does strongly suggest something about his upbringing: The Church absolutely condemns IVF in part because it hinges on abortion (i.e., only 1-3 of the "best" embryos are left implanted and the rest are destroyed.) As such, it is ridiculous to consider that his parents were religious and made the Faith an important factor in his upbringing.
Personally, I do not think this cocksucker ever was Confirmed. I think that his early comment that he never was Confirmed
is true.
What we do know is that this guy never goes to Mass. He lied about this for over a year until actual TLM goers realized that he never goes to Mass at St John Cantius, the ICKSP Shrine, any FSSP chapel, or a diocesan TLM. In fact, this lazy ass groid won't even bother going to 5PM Sunday afternoon Mass at a neighborhood parish for a quick Novus Ordo liturgy. He hides behind the weirdo Nick Licker "Classical Theist" who will "teach" you Catholic thought, for a price. But you can't know who he is or ask for credentials that give him a right to teach Theology.
While someone can sperg and say "once Baptized Catholic, always Catholic," that misses the point. In fact, Canon Law specifically treats those baptized as Catholics before the age of reason, but brought up outside of the Church as not being, presently, immediately under obligation to do things like meatless Fridays, get married before a Priest, etc. While there is still a general duty to convert, for a man baptized as a Catholic but brought up otherwise, he isn't actively sinning by not following various disciplines. If this bothers Catholics, we should re-read the parable of the workers who were all paid the same (and remember that it is a grace to be in the vineyard of the Lord, doing His work all along.)
With that in mind, what makes a Catholic? At least what gives someone the ability to claim to be a practicing Catholic? We need to look to the precepts of the Church, which are largely regarded as the barebones in terms of "what we are on the hook for." This is based on the Catechism of the Council of Trent, but found everywhere up to the 1990s popular catechism, which though includes the 6th, doesn't technically list it using the term "precept."
- Attend Mass on Sundays and Days of Obligation
- Confess sins to a priest once a year
- Receive holy Communion during the Easter Season (presently expanded to include more than just the Pascal Season)
- Follow fasting and abstinence (i.e., abstaining from flesh meat) at the appointed times
- Support your pastor
- Follow the Church's laws on marriage
Fuentes fails on every single one of these. So, I ask, what makes Fuentes a Christian and specifically what makes him a Catholic?
