More Catholic Killing History

Heretics


Already in 385 C.E. the first Christians, the Spanish Priscillianus and six followers, were beheaded for heresy in Trier/Germany



Begin of violence: on command of pope Innocent III (greatest single pre-nazi mass murderer) in 1209. Bezirs (today France) 7/22/1209 destroyed, all the inhabitants were slaughtered. Victims (including Catholics refusing to turn over their heretic neighbours and friends) 20,000-70,000.

Carcassonne 8/15/1209, thousands slain. Other cities followed.

subsequent 20 years of war until nearly all Cathars (probably half the population of the Languedoc, today southern France) were exterminated.



Estimated one million victims (cathar heresy alone)



Spanish Inquisitor Torquemada alone allegedly responsible for 10,220 burnings.

First Woman Pope

Are you aware of Pope Jane? Yup, there was a woman pope. True story. She was killed by her followers when she gave birth during the papal procession. Apparently they thought she was possessed by a demon.

Apparently she was an orphan that got into a monastery and kept her gender hidden through all the years. According to the research that I read, she was a pretty good pope until that little incident of pregnancy.

Two things happened after she was torn limb to limb. The papal procession changed it's route for a few hundred years. The other was the popes chair was created. It is a chair with a hole in it. The new pope would sit in it commando while another cardinal would reach under and determine if the new pope was indeed a man. Unfortunately I don't know the Latin, but the saying was: "The Pope is a man." I understand that the pope's chair is now out of use

Japan is struck by disaster - Catholic diocese first victim of quake

Japan is struck by disaster - Catholic diocese first victim of quake

The Catholics in Haiti also grieve the loss of a Shepherd, another victim of the earthquake. Father Pierre Le Beller of the Saint Jacques Missionary Center in western France reports that the lifeless body of Archbishop of Port-au-Prince, Monsignor Joseph Serge Miot, was found in the ruins of the offices of the archdiocese office.

The Bishop was only 63 years old. Reports indicate that he was only one of many who were killed as Churches and Church related buildings collapsed under the devastation of the worst quake to hit this Nation in 200 years.

In Haiti the Catholic Cathedral was demolished and many priests killed.

Catholic Baby Thefts Spain

But over recent years, it has emerged that the practice continued beyond the war, which came to an end in 1939, and was widespread throughout the Franco era - even after the dictator died in 1975. A network of Catholic Church-run children's homes and private hospitals would take newborn infants, typically from young, impoverished single mothers, who were told that their baby had died. Estimates put the total number of children who may have been illegally adopted between 1950 and 1980 at around 300,000.

Another example of the fruits of the spirit regarding this disgusting organization!!!

Catholic Killings--Pagans

As soon as Christianity was legal (315), more and more pagan temples were destroyed by Catholic mob. Pagan priests were killed.

Between 315 and 6th century thousands of pagan believers were slain.

Is Celibacy wrong???

Celibacy is definitely allowed for church leaders, and to a certain degree, it is encouraged. However, Scripture nowhere requires celibacy for those serving in positions of church leadership.

How did Celibacy get started in the church??
It first appeared at the councils of Elvira AD 306.
church leaders were given their positions with no training or qualifications.
Can you say Nepotism???the church leaders would then pass on their positions to their descendants.
By not allowing children there was no way this could continue.

Who were the Nephilim???

The Nephilim were intended to wipe out the bloodline of God, and God saw no other way but to cleanse the earth of its evil and preserve the line through Noah.
They produced Giants that inhabited and roamed the earth, the Nephilim even occupied the Promised land, which is why some of Moses' men came back with a fearful report due to their size comparison. In the Old Testament, they were called Anakims, Raphaims, Zamzumims. Many ancient Jewish sources tell us about the fall of the Angels in heaven and the ones who fell coming upon the earth.
Josephus the famous Jewish Roman Historian talked about the remains of the Nephilim that were on public display in his time. He says that it was common knowledge that Giants previously inhabited the world during his time. These Giants stood from 10 to sometimes 30 feet in height
The Bible and another ancient Jewish sources reveal to us that after death the Nephilim became the demonic spirits that inhabit the spiritual realm of earth today. These demons now roam the earth looking for bodies to inhabit or they are now disembodied spirits who have no hope for salvation. We are now seeing a strange phenomenon above the skies in modern times. UFOs and other strange encounters with supposed extra terrestrials whom will be claiming to be our creators and saviours of our world's troubles like global warming etc.. We are being prepared through the media and movies that extra Terrestrials exist and are visiting our planet. Even the catholic church and Pope are calling them our brothers!!!They take this form so as to believable to us. A spacecraft that makes a 90 degree turn at 16000 mph is obviously fake and is spiritually based. Interestingly enough the bible tells us that satan is the prince of the air and warns us of masquerading powers and principalities that try to dissuade us form the truth which we know is in Christ Jesus and the Bible.

The Catholic Rosary Beads

A devotion in the church whereby they fondle the beads and make rote prayers.
Another example of distorted doctrine and points toward more "mysteries " in the church
Mystery is one of the signs of the AntiChrist spirit.

The traditional 15 Mysteries of the Rosary were standardized, based on the long-standing custom, by Pope St. Pius V in the 16th century. In 2002, Pope John Paul II announced five new optional mysteries, the luminous mysteries, bringing the total number of mysteries to 20.

And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

The Great Madam Whore..The Babylonian Church

Catholic view

In a press conference at the Vatican, Monsignor Cyril Salim Bustros, a Greek Melkite archbishop from Boston and president of the Church’s Commission for the Message, launched a blistering attack against the very foundation of Jewish belief.

“The Holy Scriptures,” Bustros declared, “cannot be used to justify the return of Jews to Israel and the displacement of the Palestinians, to justify the occupation by Israel of Palestinian lands.”

Not stopping there, he went on to state that “we Christians cannot speak of the ‘promised land’ as an exclusive right for a privileged Jewish people… There is no longer a chosen people.”

And so, in one fell swoop, a senior Church official sought to deny the unique, covenantal relationship between God and the Jews, rejecting the divine promise to restore the people of Israel to their Land. One cannot help but wonder: What Bible is the Vatican reading? Whichever one it is, it must be missing a few pages, as even a cursory glance at the Scriptures makes clear that the Jewish people’s right to the Land of Israel is indisputably ordained.

How does God speak to us???

The primary way He does this is thru our reading of the Scriptures.
The more time we spend doing this the more knowledge we will gain.
Interesting note is that a Catholic has no way of gaining God's knowledge as they do not believe the Scriptures take precedence over the Vatican's knowledge.
