Americanist Celebration of Masonic Declaration as ‘Catholic Freedom’ Exposes Conciliar Apostasy
The ncregister.com portal publishes a commentary by Jerome C. Foss, assistant vice president of academic affairs at Saint Vincent College, hailing the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence as “Catholic Freedom Day.” Foss argues that the Masonic document of 1776 inaugurated religious liberty for Catholics in the English-speaking colonies, citing the Carroll family’s participation as proof of the harmony between Catholic faith and American principles. He concludes that the past 250 years have provided “fertile ground for the works of the Holy Spirit — the true spirit of 1776.” This panegyric to the Americanist heresy reveals the thoroughgoing naturalism of the conciliar sect, which substitutes the Kingship of Christ for the sovereignty of the people and the liberty of the Gospel for the license of the Revolution.
