1.2 Concepts

Article 14 - Natural Order

Canon 4705 (link)

Natural Order (ordo naturalis in Latin), also known as the “Natural Order of Things” is a series of concepts and orthodoxy developed from the end of the 17th Century and rising to its highest point at the beginning of the 19th Century which assigns certain Positive Law functions as Natural Law.

Canon 4706 (link)

The erroneous concept of Natural Order is part of a larger philosophical framework which states:

(i) Divine Law derives its authority from the Divine Creator;

(ii) Positive Law derives its authority from the Government; and

(iii) Natural Law derives its authority from the inherit character of natural beings, their ability to reason and to demonstrate self control.

Canon 4707 (link)

The two (2) most notable areas of work attempting to wrongly argue certain Positive Law concepts as Natural Law concepts under the “Natural Order” is Rights and Property:

(i) Philosophers such as Thomas Hobbes argued that the rights of reasonable men are part of Natural Law; and

(ii) The Roman Death Cult and its philosophers argued and still argue that private property is a part of Natural Law.

Canon 4708 (link)

The arguments that either rights or property are part of Natural Law and therefore “Natural Order” are absurd, contradictory to the order and relation of law and therefore reprobate, suppressed and not permitted to be revived.
