“You see, it’s been our misfortune to have the wrong religion. Why didn’t we have the religion of the Japanese, who regard sacrifice for the Fatherland as the highest good? The Mohammedan religion [Islam] too would have been more compatible to us than Christianity. Why did it have to be Christianity with its meekness and flabbiness?” A. Hitler Hitler has often been lambasted for saying this but if I'm being honest I understand completely where he is coming from. A question I've often asked is this: as Communists rampaged in the streets of Germany during the Weimar period where were the Christians? Why was it left entirely to the Brownshirts to fill that gap? You could ask the sane question today as Communists again rampage in tge steets and prepare to mass murder again? Christianity is not a pacifist religion yet somehow this notion that it is, that we must just stand by as evil ravages our lands, has taken hold in our Churches. It is madness. Does Roman's 13 really mean we can't defend our families, homes, and nations? I don't think so. So i'll ask again where are the Christians? Why aren't they standing in the gap?

Absolutely ties into my earlier comment regarding Papism. Baked right into the system - a hierarchy more or less perfectly suited to undermine National Sovereignty. It flabbergasts me how willing so many people are to ignore that - on the grounds that it’s a “religious matter”. But this means people typically believe it - not because it makes any sense, but because it’s baked into them as well.

I have some strong and likely irritating points I regularly level against the Papal Church and Hierarchy — but I absolutely do not intend to do so mean-spiritedly. I recognize Rome bears a historically unique share of responsibility for the course of our history over the last millennium; theirs in the very cornerstone of Western spiritual unity, and they remain the largest single religious entity in the world. I do not *blame* them for the many hard choices they had to make. I cannot pretend to know for certain whether they or anyone else “could have done better”. My intention here is all fairness and due respect. That said, in hindsight, through True Orthodox eyes, a very long list of unfortunate mistakes and missteps have resulted in grave and tragic realities, that our children and children’s children will feel far more acutely than we shall. Whether they intended to or not, their worst legacy was the utter debasement of White European National Sovereignty - at just such a time as we’d need it most.

I didn't even know anything about Vatican II until this year.

It's a shit

Yes, it is.

Stopped in my Parish for a quick minute while out. I miss Mass but, I can't tolerate this Pope.

Yeah well, he's a heretic, so....

A heretic and a communist.

Hey, at least he’s not a faggot 🎉

He might be that too, for all we know.

He is a Jesuit AND and Argentinian. It is extremely likely.

Could also be a jew.

He himself is not a jew, but I can pretty much guarantee you he has a rabbi's cock in at least one of his hands.

Was he not also a Jesuit at one time?

I think he was up to his election; at least that’s how I remember it “first Jesuit pope” and all.

Is my history off, or weren't the jews in Spain that were forced to convert known as Marrano's? Didn't they make up most of the Jesuits?

No, you got it - allegedly they had this big “jew purge” sometime after its founding - but the history books have virtually no record of anyone actually being purged. Just a cover story.

That shouldn't surprise me.

I blame the jesuits for Japan. They were well on their way to becoming one of the great Traditional Christian kingdoms; but the jesuits saw to it that *that* never happened 😡

You can place a large portion of the blame on Portuguese merchants taking Japanese peasants as slaves leading to Toyotomi Hideyoshi closing Japan to foreigners. The Christians who remained in hiding gradually became more and more persecuted as the years of isolation went on and they began to treat any foreign religion or ideology as inherently anti-Japanese. The final nail in the coffin was WWII where the two largest pockets of Christianity in Japan, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, were nuked.

Oh, and the Amakusa uprising didn't do Christians in Japan any favor. Amakusa declared himself Christ returned and encouraged his followers to revolt against the Shogunate leading to a large number of them being purged.

Reminds me of that Chinese dude who said he was Jesus' brother lmao EDIT: The anime character here is Fate's Amakusa, not the Jesus' brother dude to be clear lol
