Catholic Benevolent Dictator? You mean Roman Empire revived.
That's really offensive and I'm a Christian. When he says that only a true catholic nation can survive and thrive, is he referring to Mexico? They
are extremely Catholic. My wife once taught in an all catholic community and they were all alcoholics and party hounds. Their kids were the most
pompous and prideful people I have ever met, running the streets of their city like animals every weekend.
Maybe he really meant Baptist. I'm a Baptist and we don't worship idols or venerate objects made by hands. I think the world has had enough clear
examples of catholic leadership over the centuries to want nothing to do with the false ambitions of world control that the catholic church lusts
after. This has always been their aim. Power corrupts and complete power corrupts completely.
Now, there are many faithful catholic parishioners who exhibit all the faith, hope and love an honest Christian should reflect. Most of the catholic
faithful are just that, faithful. As for the catholic leadership, not so much. The rape of children and the hoarding of wealth has forever doomed
their witness in the world to a place of shame. Notice I didn't say guilt. Guilt says, "I have done bad." Shame realizes that "I am bad." This
cancer starts at the top of the powers within the catholic church itself. Below this corrupt leadership realm of the power base, faithful catholics
represent all that is good in the world. If they would shake off the leadership, they would do the world a favor. Better yet, release all the wealth
of Rome and feed the starving around the world. Heal the sick. Clothe the naked. Free the captives. There is plenty to do all that and still have
some left over for a few more grossly ornate cathedrals.
We can further note the fact that Rome houses a collection of books and manuscripts that could, once and for all, answer the many questions that
historians have asked about God for the last few thousand years. These documents are kept locked away for reasons that can only be surmised as
protectionist of their own power base. No single organization has done more throughout history to damage the witness of God than the Holy Roman
Empire run by the catholic church. Paradoxically, God has used all their evil to carry His message to the world, despite the wickedness within this
Roman Order of evil. Indulgences brought the printing press. Luther brought 70 million out of the oppression in Europe to the new world and freedom.
The English Bible moved to the masses and educated the world out of illiteracy. God will not be used, not now and not then. Those who try will be
owned by God's wrath for eternity.
My advise to the Roman Empire is to please stay away from government and my kids. Haven't you done enough already. Leave voting and striving for a
better world to your faithful parishioners. They have it under control and so does God.
No malice is intended in my statements to any faithful follower of God within the Catholic church. I just feel it's time Rome stopped trying to rule
the world as if they have the interests of humanity at heart. Leave that to Christ. He's the judge, not Rome.
