Benedict DID NOT Defrock Priests!

/ By / News

Rome, Italy The Vatican saw significant media coverage in January for the supposed defrocking of 400 priests by Pope Benedict during his reign in 2011 and 2012. The timing of this development was no coincident, coming just one day after the coverage of the Vatican’s hearing at the U.N. in Geneva.

“Bring Out Your Dead!” … Men’s Bones

/ By / News

Rome, Italy
The Catholic Church has gotten a lot of press this year with Francis’s more “modern” public relations campaign. While they have stepped up their attempts to relate to the technologically driven social media world, they maintain their long traditions of glorifying the dead, worshiping idols and perpetrating traditions that have NOTHING to do with God, but are against Him.

This week, the Church will put a spotlight on their pagan foundations by parading bones they “traditionally believe” to be those of Peter. This event will close the “Year of Faith” started by Ratzinger, who lost faith in his ability to be Pope back in February. The word Faith in the Catholic understanding is to “just believe” in something, for example that dead men’s bones are for “venerating”. Venerating bones is a direct violation of God’s Command against worshiping idols. To worship something is to “Give Worth”. Worshiping idols is commanded against from the beginning of God’s Word.

The press has made a particularly big deal about his “humble” practices when he was an Archbishop in Argentina because he “took the bus to work, kissed the feet of AIDS patients and prayed with former prostitutes”. The Vatican has also promoted his Jesuit background, an organization that takes a vow of “charity, chastity and obedience”, as a reflection of the intents of the Pope. His actions have been touted as being more inclusive to woman and other religions.
