Edward Feser: "No, as the Catholic faith has always taught, only a single human being possesses that – Christ, and only because He is God, not because He is human. God alone has infinite dignity."
Peter Kwasniewski: "No creature has an infinite dignity. That’s sheer balderdash. Only God has, or rather is, infinite dignity; and those who participate in Christ share, finitely, in his dignity as Son of God. Those who rebel against God lose the dignity."
And: "That which is ‘infinite’ is literally that which has no limits or definitio or end outside itself (that’s why God is rightly called infinite). But man’s dignity is very much tied to his nature and his end. If his dignity were truly infinite, then he would stand in no need of God or of redemption/salvation."
And: „Roma locuta, causa infinita est.”
Michael Hichborn: "Cardinal Fernández doesn’t even define 'dignity' at any point of the document."
And: "He is changing the nature of sin as offence to God into a violation of human dignity. This has no meaning."
Thomas Aquinas (+1274): "By sinning man departs from the order of reason, and consequently falls away from the dignity of his manhood, in so far as he is naturally free, and exists for himself, and he falls into the slavish state of the beasts" (Summa Theologiae, Secunda Secundae, Q. 64, A. 2).
Kennedy Hall: “This new infinite dignity document from Rome is quite literally Satanic. It conflates Man with God - only God or ‘a god’ could claim to be infinite in the absolute sense.”
Damian Thompson: "Remember: unless there’s something radically new (Tucho’s gay blessings) no one in the outside world reads this stuff or is even interested."
And: "ChatGPT would produce something just as coherent and better written. Gender ideology condemnation plus human rights waffle."
