I have a really hard time believing that
it was the disciples of Jesus. The church has never taught the true
message that Jesus was teaching to the disciples and the masses of
people. The only conclusion that makes any sense is that the
Catholic Church is a duel church.
We know that the Catholic Church
has what is called a “White Pope” and a “Black Pope”.
In simple terms this must mean that
there is the public and the hidden agendas of the church. The public
view is in charge of false teachings, brainwashing and misleading of
the people. The hidden agendas of the church that, “the good
Catholic common folk” have no idea exist, under the outward "cover”
of the church, is all evil. Up until Jesus time in the ancient
writings there is a flood of information on the Scribes and
Pharisees.
After Jesus left they quickly
disappeared and the Holy Roman Catholic Church appeared, suddenly.
Could it be that the Jewish Scribes and Pharisees are the ones that
really created the Catholic Church just to control the people to
prevent them from evolving with the teachings that Jesus brought to
earth. It is now known from the angles that are communicating with
man that Jesus disciples and some followers were able to do the same
miracles that Jesus could do.
There are even people that ascended
the same as Jesus. Refer to “The Apotheosis Project.”
No government, nor church can control people that are limitless and
can manifest anything, food, water, clothing and shelter with a
focused thought. That is why a corrupt church and government work
well together because together they have for 2000 years
systematically killed off everyone that they thought was remotely
close to practicing Jesus’ teachings like the group known as the “Albigensians”.
It is the “Jewish Khazars” that are pushing the corruptness and
complete annihilation of the 12 lost tribes the Gentiles as the
Talmud refers to them. As for our United States government, the
“Khazar Jews” have been systematically for the last 25 years
scarfing up every position in congress. After studying the Talmud
and the Kabbalah and the doctrines of
the llluminati it is easy to
understand why our government is writing laws of such “Atrocity
Levels” to be used on the unsuspecting Anglo-American citizens.
The “Christian” religions sprang (obviously) out of the life of
Jesus, and from the subsequent activities of his disciples.
From the
times of the earliest writings that are today formed into the
compendium colloquially known as the Bible, there were many forms of
this so-called Christian religion, and they did not always agree
with each other, even down to such fundamentals as to who (or what)
Jesus really was, as well as to how their various religious rituals
were to be practiced, and how their doctrines (and dogmas) were to
be disseminated.
The Romans sacked Jerusalem in A.D. 70, and most of
the writings concerning these “Christian” religions were lost.
What
today survives to form the current Bible’s New Testament was
written, at the earliest, from between the years of 65 A.D. to
around 100 A. D., about 32 to 67 years after the crucifixion. The
majority of the “Christian” writings, or, at least the religious
writings of the time which did survive, with the obvious exception
of the
Dead Sea Scrolls and the
Nag Hammadi Scripts, ended up in the
hands of the Roman Catholic church, and it made use of those
writings to its greatest advantage.
From its lowly start the Roman Catholic church grew and developed,
influencing members of the Roman Senate and the rulers of other
neighboring lands to such an extent that Rome itself gave over a
significant part of Rome to the Church, which part of the old city
is still to this day a separate and autonomous, tax free State
within the boundaries of the City of Rome, in the country of Italy,
called and known as Vatican City.
Around 250 A.D. the Roman
Catholic Church emerged as the biggest and most powerful organized
“Christian” religion.
It began to infiltrate and destroy, or
overcome, and absorb, the many and variegated “Christian” sects and
religious organizations, and also began trying to eradicate some of
the more ancient religious beliefs, mainly through the
“re-education” of the proponents of such religions, or through the
destruction or the confiscation and subsequent hiding of ancient
“biblical texts” and other religious and historical manuscripts.
In the fourth Century, the roman Emperor virtually
re-wrote both the bible and the “laws” of the Roman Catholic church,
and the basic tenets, doctrines and philosophies of the Roman
Catholic Church still to this day reflect his beliefs, namely
-
that God is a being that is outside of each human being,
-
that
only the 70 Grace of God could change a person’s sinful ways, and
that only certain people would be chosen by God to be given that
particular dispensation, and that
-
people could only be
considered to receive this divine Grace if they were a member of the
Roman Catholic Church and received the sacraments.
Anyone who was
not with the Church had to be against it.
To ensure the growth of the Church, it embarked upon a campaign
against people and countries which was to continue, on and off, and
in many forms, for many centuries.
Anyone who did not belong to the Roman Catholic church and who did
not conform to the tenets and edicts of the Roman Catholic church
could be accused of heresy. The charge of “Heresy” or of being a
“heretic” could be leveled against anyone from noble to serf.
The
doctrines of the Catholic Church were regarded as God’s Law, and
therefore formed the basis of Man’s Law. and therefore the charge of
heresy was a charge leveled not only by the Church, as a charge that
the individual’s beliefs did not conform with the doctrines of the
Church, and therefore God, but also it was a charge of criminal
activities or even treason against the State, and the poor wretch
had to answer to both.
Even the lowly priest had to be careful, he,
more than anyone, as a member of the Church, had to conform or
suffer the same consequences. Thus the Roman Catholic church acted
not only as “God’s police force”, but also as the police force of
the State, and, in most places, the Country. All of these
“ministrations” of the Roman Catholic Church, being presided over by
the careful and watchful eye of the presiding Church dignitary,
depending upon the jurisdiction, from a bishop or cardinal up
through the ranks of the Church to the Pope himself.
By the eleventh century their main objective was realized in that
almost everybody in the “civilized world” generally was either
-
ignorant as to the prior existence of any form of Christian religion
other than the Roman Catholic Church, or
-
was too afraid to enter
into any form of private discussion of the matter of other
religions, leave alone start a public debate or argument about it.
The Crusades changed all that.
The Crusades
The official reason of the time as to why the first Crusade to the
Holy Land was undertaken is that as a result of the interference
with travelers and pilgrims by the Turks, and the fact that the
Islamic Turks were in the “Holy Land” at all.
Pope Urban II, in a
council of churchmen and noblemen at Clermont, France, in 1095,
called for good (Roman Catholic) Christians to rescue the Holy Land
from the clutches of the barbarous Turks, priests took up the cause,
spreading the message through their Churches and thousands of “good
Christian people” volunteered to fight and die for the Roman
Catholic cause.
The first Crusade of 1096, was led by the Norman Knights, Godfrey de
Bouillon, Count Robert of Flanders, Count Raymond of Toulouse, Bohemund. etc., etc... These Knights eventually conquered Jerusalem,
and caused Godfrey de Bouillon to be “crowned” as head of the newly
created (and re-liberated) Kingdom of Jerusalem.
Of these Norman
Knights, Godfrey de Bouillon could trace and prove his lineage and
ancestry directly back to King Merovee, patriarch of
the Merovingian
Dynasty of French Kings, and one of the first Kings of France (the
Franks) in 417 A.D..
The reasons as to why these particular Knights went to the Holy Land
is still somewhat obscure.
But for the purposes of this chapter,
suffice it to say, for the moment, that the scrolls discovered
amidst the caves at Qumran, near the Dead Sea in 1947, and, more
particularly the copper scrolls discovered thereafter, along with
the known travels of Joseph of Aramathea and Mary Magdalene after
the crucifixion, may give the astute researcher several hints as to
how this Crusade alone returned from the holy land with “great
treasures and knowledge and wealth”, while thousands of participants
in the subsequent Crusades died, either while trying to get to the
holy land, or at the hands of the Turks when they got there, or
while trying to escape back to their homelands and more particularly
the clues as to why subsequent Crusades were nowhere near as
“successful”.
In 1187, the Turks recaptured Jerusalem, prompting the
third Crusade which was to take King Richard into the “holy land”,
leaving Prince John in charge (on the English Throne) and which also
caused the creation and the signing of the Magna Carta.
Part of the “Knowledge” brought back from the Holy Land by the first
and subsequent Crusades was to eventually trickle down to the
general public and would seriously challenge and undermine the
religious 71 authority of the Roman Catholic Church.
Knowledge and,
above that, proof, came down to the masses that there had, indeed,
been all kinds of “Christian” religions, and the Roman Catholic
Church had not been the only one.
The “Pagan”
Religions
When the Romans, under Julius Caesar, conquered Europe. France and
England (between 58 and 54 B.C.), they found various cultures which
had. for more than a thousand years, practiced a so-called “pagan”
types of astrological religion, worshipping Sun, Moon, Stars and
Earth. The Gauls and Celts were predominantly farmers, relying on
such astrological calendars as Stonehenge and other Pre-civilization
monoliths and burial grounds which were strewn all around France and
England to tell them when to plant and sow and reap their harvest.
Which just is not the truth about these objects but. the pagan
religions thus practiced in this way a life and means of survival.
Given that the Roman religion itself was based on the worship of
multiple Gods, the old pagan religions of the European theater did
not pose much of a threat, and the two types of religion cohabited
in harmony, until the advent of the Roman Catholic Church, and the
new knowledge gleaned from the Crusades.
Religious persecution
At the beginning of the twelfth century, the “Dark Ages” or
“Inquisition” began in Europe and in 1215, with their new found
freedom granted by the Magna Carta, the Church started a new type of
program closely allied to the inquisition, but with a new twist.
The
focus was still mainly on heretics, but now the net broadened to
include those members of the general populace who had any direct or
indirect knowledge of an “old Pagan” pre-Christian religion as well
as the more modernistic persons who practiced or preached any of the
new Christian (non-Catholic) religions.
Thus began the era of the “Witch Hunts”, or the “Dark Ages”.
The Witch
Hunts
This was an age reigned over by the
terror of the Roman Catholic
Church which was to last more than two hundred years.
The Roman
Catholic Church declared that any one who was still practicing any
“old” religion had to be working for Satan and was. therefore,
either a witch, or a warlock. The same accusation as had been
leveled for centuries were again leveled from nobleman to serf, but
this time the accusation was not heresy, but that of being a witch
(female), or warlock (male).
Some very nasty trials and horrible tortures were devised to fine
out if an accused “Witch” or “Warlock” was engaged in the “pagan
practice of the devil’s work”. To be merely accused as a witch or
warlock was quite literally the signing of your death warrant, and
all done in the name of God, the Holy Roman Church, the King, the
Country and, of course, for the “salvation” of the people from
eternal damnation (of not belonging to the Roman Catholic church,
and/or the learning of the truth?).
Don’t you know the truth will
set you free really! And the church could not have that.
A group of men, headed by the “Witch finder”, usually a self
proclaimed expert or dignitary of the church, and the local Baron or
Earl would ride into a village and announce a “witch hunt”, and they
had some very bizarre ways of finding a “witch” or “Warlock”.
Torture
In many cases, this self appointed inquisition would single out two
or three of the persons of the village, or even their own priest,
who would be questioned (and even tortured and maimed) in order to
find out which members of the village would be most likely to be
found to be a witch or heretic.
Some horrific systems and
instruments of torture were devised specifically for this “religious
trial”.
Inevitably, someone, while being tortured, would scream the
name of one, if not several of their friends and neighbors who the
inquisition could then question (and torture) and subsequently find
to be a witch or heretic.
Victims
-
anyone who was thought to be a
little abnormal (mentally retarded or “touched”) or just a
little strange,
-
if someone in the village simply
didn’t like you,
-
or an old maid or widow who
lived alone and practiced herbal remedies,
-
a particularly beautiful young
woman who was thought to have the power to “bewitch” the
young men of the village,
-
anyone with a birthmark or
freckles,
-
anyone who was crippled from
birth by a strange disease (Spina bifida, polio, downs
syndrome etc.,),
-
or who had a strange disease or
malady (leprosy, epilepsy),
-
or was known to have an animal
(a black cat or dog) which could be a “familiar”,
-
even someone who just showed
they were “too scared” of the witch finder,
...everybody could be accused of being
possessed, bewitched, or of being of an old “Pagan” faith, and would
be subjected to the three specific tests of the trial.
The Trial
The first thing that would happen was that the accused unfortunates
would be brought out into the village square and the whole village
population would have to witness the “witch bane”.
One by one the accused would be stripped
naked, placed on a special table, and subjected to a most intimate
and undignified search, the object of which was to find the “mark of
the devil” this mark could be a wound scar, a birthmark, a mole, or
a spot or pimple.
-
Test 1
When a mark was found, and one
usually was, the accused would then have to undergo the test
of the bodkin. This was a needle approximately twelve inches
long which would be stuck into the unfortunate victim in and
around the devil’s mark. If the victim did not feel the
needle, or the puncture did not bleed, then he or she was
definitely a witch.
Some of these needles were in a
sliding handle, so the witch finder could make it look like
the needle was going into the victim when it was not, and
the people would declare her a witch at once. A little
pressure could be applied to the exit wound so that it did
not bleed, automatically he or she was a witch. There were
many tricks to the witch finder’s trade, and he rarely left
a village without killing two or three people.
When, the victim had been declared a witch, the witch
finder, as per the victims “constitutional rights”, had to
conduct a proper trial. The jury was the whole village. The
prosecution had to find out if the Good Lord would
redeem the soul of this unfortunate wretch. The defense was
the Good Lord himself.
-
Test 2
If the village had a village pond, the victim had to go
to the “dunking stool”, a device like a child’s see-saw,
with a chair tied to one end. The naked victim was tied into
the stool and submerged in the freezing water for very long
periods of time, up to fifteen minutes, and never for less
than three time. If he or she drowned, then the Good Lord
had obviously decided to spare his lamb from this torment
and had taken his or her soul to himself.
-
Test 3
When the village was in a hilly area, then the victim
was taken to the top of one of the hills, and encased in a
barrel, through the outside of which the villagers drove
large nails, and the barrel, with the victim now inside, was
allowed to roll down the hill. Again, as with the dunking
stool, if the victim died, the Good Lord had taken his soul.
If, by some freak of nature, the
unfortunate accused survived this torment, then it was obvious that
the devil was in her, or him, for no mortal could possibly have
endured it.
That was absolute proof of guilt, and
the victim was convicted and sentenced.
Sentence
The sentence, in either case, when convicted of being a Witch
or Warlock, has to be burned alive at the stake, and this
done in public in the village square. Either way, to be accused was
to die horribly.
Quite obviously, to live in this age was to live in dread and fear
of either mutilation or death at the hands of any of the over
zealous “witch finders” of the day.
By the turn of the fifteenth century, most, but not all of these
inquisitions had fizzled out. Society was, from our modern day
standpoint, till in very sick shape, but even with this type of
society England and Europe gradually prospered and grew more
civilized.
When
Columbus returned
from his 1492 voyage of discovery and told the people of the new
world in the West, they started again to dream...
