Such arch-criminals are honoured with catholic funerals and, like Mafia
members,
die with the assurance that their Church will continue to say Masses in
order to get them out of Purgatory and eventually into heaven. It is an
insurance policy that very few allow to lapse completely.

And of course we have to mention the CC relationship with the tyrrant
and war lord Napoleon...who himself like Hitler was raised a Catholic.
Controversial Concordats offers an engaging survey of the relationship
of the Roman Catholic Church with three dictatorial figures in the
nineteenth
and twentieth centuries: Napoleon, Mussolini, and Hitler. The essays reveal
that the papacy not only played a key role in determining church-state
relations
in particular countries, but also greatly influenced the general course of
international relations and modern history from the era of the French
Revolution
to the age of dictators and World War II.

It has been too convenient for Catholics to justify heinous crimes by it's
members
using the simple solution that to repent will see one removed from the sin.
WW2 was a crime against the Holy Spirit and everything Jesus stood for.

Indeed and he wasted no time whatsoever in condemning the Pharisees

mention
when he lost his cool with the money changers or escaped assassination
numerous times.
But non of this relates in any way to the likes of Hitler and Mussolini.

Who are *we humans* to judge? For all we know, they could have made a
perfect act of contrition at the moment of death, and God forgave them-true,
it is highly unlikely, but since we Catholics are taught that if properly
penitent, God could forgive anything--again, who are *we* to judge what God
does?
This is not saying that I condone anything these men did, but to prove a
point...God can do anything, forgive anyone if He so chooses....good thing,

happen to you? I *know* I am a lowly sinner....

So you know the mind of God? You know what His plans are, what He chooses
to do? Sounds rather presumptuous...
Jesus was without mortal sin but according to Catholic doctrine it could
also be said that he was with minor or venial sin..(smashing peoples wares
within the scene of the money changers and his character assassination of
the Pharisees could be interpreted as him loosing his cool and a minor sin?)

Catholic doctrine where? The bible says that Jesus was man in every
way but never sinned.
He punished the money changers for desecreating his Fathers' house -
the Temple. That's not a minor sin.

Hmmmm...The Great Flood-God destroyed the entire world....Sodom and
Gomorrah...God destroyed an entire city...both actions because of the
apparent absolute sinfulness of the people....so you are now saying God has
sinned? And, sin you say "according to Catholic Doctrine", I would expect
you to be able to back this up with actual fact-the Catholic Catechism (the
official statement of Catholic Doctrine) would be a good start--please cite
the exact place that Catholic Doctrine states that Jesus was with minor sin
in this-or any- instance....

I, a human, would assUme that, but I make no postive assertions on who is in

YOU were the one who made this assertion...the statment that:
"Such arch-criminals are honoured with catholic funerals and, like Mafia
members,
die with the assurance that their Church will continue to say Masses in
order to get them out of Purgatory and eventually into heaven. It is an
insurance policy that very few allow to lapse completely."
We do this because WE DO NOT KNOW the final destination of anyone...I have
posed the question about Judas Iscariot here as well...it is possible that
even he is in heaven-he could have made a perfect act of contrition in the
final moments of life, could have finally "gotten it" about Jesus...only one
thing is certain-a lot of people upon their deaths are going to be very
surprised at who is-and who is not- in heaven...
>If I went into the Vatican bank tomorrow and began smashing computers and

I'm suspect they would, in addition to filing civil charges against
you for illegal tresspass and destruction of personal/sacred property.
Jesus threw the money changers out for desecrating his Father's house.

How is selling all the Vatican "treasure" giving it back to Jesus?

First...You are asking if you took actions *similar* to Jesus'

Second...what you propose-smashing church property, burning church papers-
is NOT what Jesus did. He did not burn Temple documents, nor smash temple
property. The people outside (the money changers, the sellers of animals)
who were taking advantage of the pilgrims (who had to convert their foreign
money to Temple money, and buy the "pure" animals) by taking huge
commissions on their interchange. THAT was what Jesus was taking issue
with...
Now, if you were to run off people scalping in front of the Vatican-THAT is
what Jesus did-would I consider that a sin? Probably not...

Don't have to-you did....but I have shown that evidence has been found to
corroborate the great Flood....studies are also ongoing to show a massive
subsidence on the southern end of the Dead Sea at about the same time as the
stories of Soddom and Gomorrah....n most legends is at least some kind of
grain of truth.
As far as "natural means"...even the 10 plagues of Egypt have been shown to
b scientifically possible under "natural means"...BUT...the chances of all
10 happening in relatively quick succession...possible, but unlikely. So
God can use natural means to achieve His ends-or are you putting limits on
God?

live like kings and emperors.

And exactly *who* was it that Jesus drove out of the Temple *grounds* (note
that this is *outside* of the temple)? the priests? No...the moneychangers
and the sellers of animals...and if you were to study about the practices of
the times, and put it in the full cultural context, you would know that He
was running out scalpers...people taking advantage of the pilgrims to the
temple...

I would be interested to see your proof of this...the implication in your
response to me asking about scalping is that you assert that there is
scalping going on in front of the Vatican (which I did not claim as fact),
and the same going on inside...proof is your responsibility, otherwise, this
could be construed as libel.

Hmmm...I didn't know that the ntional Geogrpahic Society was propaganda for
fundamentalists...how do you reconcile all the articles on evoluntion, the
age of the universe, the ongoing studies of these ancient geological changes
involving the Black Sea flooding and the massive subsidence in the southern
Dead Sea region-some of these have been repeatedly refuted by most
fundamentalists...

Why do I have to aceed to your demands for cites, when I have yet to see any
of yours? And you refute the one I posted above from a reputable scientific
organisation as "run by fundamentalists" without proof...but just so I do
not sink to your level....

Clemson University (another "hotbed of fundamentalism"?) also explains that
God can use natural means-however unlikely to occur in specific orders- to
achieve His goals...

But you debunk any out of the ordinary events that God does because He uses

Another inconsequential comment from 'Ol Pete, cause he doesn't have a clue
about what's going on inside or outside the "Vatican Walls". He just makes
things up as he goes along.

You wouldn't have heard a word. You apparent misinterpretation with

years before. He nailed his bound-for-hell coffin shut on himself as

€ Such praise came decades before the Argentine government disclosed
(Feb., 1992) that Nazi war criminals (Mengele, Eichmann were some) escaped
to Argentina in 1945 on passports that were issued by the Pope Pius XII.
However, Pius XIII was responsible for saving some Italian Jews from the
death factories.

€ Dawidowicz, Lucy. **The War Against the Jews**, 1975.
- The laugher about Eugenio Pacelli/alias Pius XII was that he was
reportedly a Germanist with a yen for spicy deutche-wurst
(German-sausage), however, God gave him a gastrointestinal system that
wasn't quite up to the formidable task. Eugenio reportedly died after a
severe bout of GI distress in 1958. I guess one could say his suffering
was the wurst. If God's one true church is right about suffering being
one of the paths to salvation, Eugenio should make it with room to
spare.
- Perhaps Adolph and Eugenio hit it off because both were anti-communists
and both were Roman Catholics - like Senator Joe McCarthy ? If Eugenio
ever makes it to sainthood, maybe there's a chance for Joe ?

No. Hitler, who may have been baptized in a CC, and studied
in a Catholic school as a youth would have no bearing on what he
became as he grew older. He clearly redirected his beliefs completely
away from the concept of Christianity.

a major aboutface.

Every 10-15 years, this subject comes up for some strange reason.
Each time it is set aside by actual facts including Jewish reports. I
too am looking for my papers on this matter, and they well date after
1992.
*****
"Those rescued by Pius are today living all over the world. There went
to Israel alone from Romania 360,000 to the year 1965."
The vindication of Pius XII has been established principally by Jewish
writers and from Israeli archives. It is now established that the Pope
supervised a rescue network which saved 860,000 Jewish lives—more than
all the international agencies put together.
After the war the Chief Rabbi of Israel thanked Pius XII for what he
had done. The Chief Rabbi of Rome went one step further. He became a
Catholic. He took the name Eugenio.

Rubbish..Hitler was raised in a Catholic environment that taught that the
Jews rejected and murdered Jesus. His anti-Semitism was based upon a 1700
year victimisation and persecution of the Jews by the Roman Church.

€ And now God's one true church is trying to beatify the pious Vicar of
Rats himself, Eugenio Pacelli. However, Herr SS Komandant of Auschwitz,
Adolph Eichmann and Dr. Joseph Mengele quite probably consider Pacelli to
be a most helpful saint.

€ There was little doubt about their authenticity. The Isaiah-scroll
found in Cave-Q1 in 1946 was scientifically dated c. 300 BC. Cave-Q4 had
records of events that are known to have taken place in the 1st Century
prior to the Roman destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem. There are a
number of issues about what was written in Q4 documents. Examples:
Yeshua/the Son of man's followers apparently did not believe that he was
God. The Son of man spent time teaching groups of females, so they
apparently heard some things that the Disciples did not hear. His
teaching about the ascension of the human soul is at odds with the
teaching of God's one true church -- especially after 1572 and 1895. Just
as Islam, Baha'i, and Buddhism were meddled by men, so were the teachings
of the itinerant rabbi who called himself "the Son of man".

Hitler could have been raised in a Catholic environment for a while,
but that teaching falls out of the window when he changes his mind,
which he clearly did. His inhumanity to humanity is directly opposed
to the concept of Christiantiy.

FIRST reason to authenticate... to scientifically date documents...
SECOND reason to authenticate - who's writings are they?
THIRD reason to authenticate - do they match with other historical
references?

Yeah, so? The Bible says there's plenty of information about Jesus that
is not contained here...

Not according to Jesus' followers...

A conclusion based on the fact that he taught women??? He also spent
time speaking to children... we don't know exactly what was said there
either... unless the Holy Spirit inspired one of the Gospel authors with
the knowledge to be able to write it down.

Actually, it is not at odds at all... perhaps what you think A) JEsus
taught and B) the Church teaches is the problem..

Never heard of the Crusades?
How about the Spanish Inquisition?
How about Father Serra's treatment of the Mexicans?

So, they cover some of the same topics, and they have some that are
not...
We also have other writings that were supposedly from Jesus' followers
that have been rejected because while they have some truth in them...
they also have not always been true.

€ History tells us that the historical records of the several God's one
true churches are somewhat adjustable. Please name another first-person
account of the "Son of man's" sermons.

advertising would have dropped precariously.

€ good point. The most recent find (1950, crypt S. of Alexandria,
Egypt), the gospel according to the Son of man's younger brother, James,
will probably never be added to the 4-gospels. One problem is that only
23 singed pages remain. (story in L. A. Times c. 1998) Another problem
is likely contradictions.

€ surely. The first writings about the Holy Trinity appeared c. 104.
The earliest, *Acts* and *Mark* were written c. 15-years after the "Son of
man" was executed.

€ Holy men would apparently like others to believe that they alone have
the keys to $alvation. I can not believe that he did not discuss with
women some of what he learned in the 40-day seminar in the desert. In the
account of such in the Q4 docs, ascension of the human soul was what he
was discussing with women. To me, this makes sense because, on average,
miscarriages amount to a substantial portion of live births. Thus, women
need to know that miscarriage is not the end for a human soul. In other
words, God gives that soul other chances for a life on this planet. It is
my opinion that "Limbo" is somewhat unlikely. For priestcrafters, to
admit error is not easy. My guess is that this particular Q4 document was
part of the reason for the 35-year stonewall.
