re: catholic politics
From a message by a Curious Questioner--
>CQ> As for the Nazi comparison, it would be good for all Christians to remember that Hitler and many of his ilk "claimed" to be Christian; largely embracing the Dominionist theology.
The Roman Catholic, Adolph Hitler (1889-1945) was a loyal catholic all his life. He was raised in a catholic school where a Benedictine monk was the instructor. The Roman Catholic, Franz Von Papen, who guided the Centre Party into installing Adolph Hitler as dictator, said piously, "Nazism is a Christian reaction against the spirit of 1789" (:Edmund Paris, The Secret History of the Jesuits, 1975)
The "swastika" of Hitler was painted on the entrace of the catholic school where he was raised, and Hitler passed by it twice a day. The swastika was the official insignia on the official coat of arms of the Benedictine Monastery at Lambach. (:John Toland, Hitler, the Pictorial Documentary of His Life, p.7)
Hitler was never excommunicated from the RCC, either before or after his death. All catholic bishops were required to take an oath of fealty to the third reich in accordance with article #16 in the Vatican concordant between Hitler and the pope. The Vatican desired not merely to go along with Hitler, but to be recognized as a "full partner." The catholics that didn't go along with the Vatican plan ended up with the Jews in concentration camps.
When Hitler met with the cardinals and bishops of the catholic hierarchy in Germany he told them that he was just doing to Jews what the Roman Catholic church had done to them for 1500 years. Hitler's right hand man in setting up the dictatorship was Eugenio Pacelli, who later was installed as a pope (Pius).
After the defeat of Germany, the official catholic attitude toward Hitler was: "Adolph Hitler, son of the Catholic church, died while defending Christianity. With the palm of the martyr God gives Hitler the laurels of victory". (July 21, 1945) (-Guenter Lewy, The Catholic Church and Nazi Germany, 1964)
The anti-Christian and anti-Jew policies of catholicism have caused more than 60 million souls to be murdered in the 20th century alone. The only thing that men learn from history is that men never learn.
"Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness." (Pro.30:20)
"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:" (Rev.17:5,6p)
"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues." (Rev.18:4)
The word of faith says, That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Grace be to them that receive the love of the truth. Amen. --Richard
