Whatever I owe people from TST, I am Not a Part of It

I may owe someone a cup of coffee.

I may owe someone so many cups of coffee I am grateful if they don't claim them.

I may owe someone Catechism, if interested.

I do not owe them any allegiance to the seven tenets.

I will quote and refute each.

And I sign above the refutation and quotes, so my signature cannot be misconstrued as undersigning these tenets.

PS I did not look up the seven tenets by unprovoked curiosity, I actually looked it up due to a video by TFP Student Action. Pro-God vs. Pro-Satan Debate in School: Whose Side Are You On?

I
One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.

Freely after Coleridge. Hilaire Belloc amended a certain stanza. Here is the Bellocian version.

"He loveth best who loveth most
all creatures, great and small
The streptococcus is the test
I love him least of all."

I even hate bacteria so much on occasion, I get rid of them by green cheese or rincing appropriate parts of the mouth with alcohol ...

Damned persons, like demons, are also creatures and also not objects of compassion or empathy.

II
The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

As in laws and institutions are NOT justice?

They are. They are not perfect justice all the way to heaven, some are turned upside down, but they are definitely (apart from legislations like Neuwirth, Veil, Gayssot in France, the Kitzmiller v Dover and Roe v Wade in US - thank God for Dodd) a guide to justice, both distributive and commutative.

As such, any struggle to improve justice should be rooted in present or better past states of legislation, and above all in the superior law of God.

But justice is not always so badly served it is urgent to improve on it either.

III
One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

Nope. You have no right to treat a fetus like an intruder, or to mutilate yourself.

IV
The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.

There is such a thing as "freedoms" and this is correct. There is also something correct about the distinction of justly or unjustly encroaching on the freedoms of others.

But there is nothing correct about encouraging people to sit in some kind of Vehm-Gericht over what freedoms he should lose - or indicate he lost all of it - for what encroachment on some freedom of someone else. This is the case whether the Vehm-Greicht is by TST or by fake Catholic Trads.

V
Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.

Ah, they pretend Science is THE religion. They make Science so "supreme" that they forget that is also a "belief in a supreme being" (the scientist being relatively supreme in an evolution to greater supremacy on their world-view), and then treat their bigotry for Science as self evident.

VI
People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.

Unless the person wronged finds this superfluous. Or the demand is above what one can licitly give.

VII
Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

One cannot have compassion, wisdom, justice prevailing over anything without words.

The attack on the "word" is ultimately an attack on the Word. It leads to chaos, not to justice, to contention without a cause, not to compassion.
