Cardinal Pacelli
Gives Hitler the Large Cache of
Church Money
“She then saw
Pacelli give the soldier ‘a
large cache of Church money to aid
the rising revolutionary and his
small, struggling band of
anticommunists.’
“ ‘Go
quell the devil’s works,’
the archbishop told him. ‘Help
spread the love of Almighty
God.’
“Sister
pascalina never forgot the young
soldier’s face or his name
– Adolf Hitler.” F. Tupper
Saussy, “15 Brienner
Strasse,” Media Bypass magazine,
July 2001, p. 54.
This is the
philosophical position that produced
Nazism and Fascism, supported by
Rome-the very philosophic position
that undergirds postmodernism now in
America.
The Premise of
Nazism, “The Revolution of
Nihilism,’ With Its Total
Irrational and Total Violence, Grips
Today’s Culture
“The
culmination of the process in total
irrationalism and total violence was
Nazism, ‘The Revolution of
Nihilism.’” – Carroll
Quigley, Tragedy and Hope, 1225. This
evaluation is extremely important for
America as it is marching steadily
downward to the same pit or horror.
Quigley explains:
Cult of Irrational
Activism Based on Hegelian Dialectic
of Relativism Gives Birth to the Cult
of Violence
“Expressed
explicitly this cult of Irrational
Activism was based on the belief that
the universe was dynamic and largely
nonrational. As such, any
effort to deal with it by rational
means will be futile and superficial.
Moreover, rationalism, by paralyzing
man’s ability to act decisively,
will expose him to destruction in a
world whose chief features include
struggle and conflict. Men came to
believe that only violence had
survival value. The resulting cult of
violence permeated all human life. By
mid-century, the popular press,
literature, the cinema, sports, and
all major human concerns had embraced
this cult of violence….
“On a
somewhat more profound level, the
Nazi Party mobilized popular support
with a program of ‘Blood and
Soil’ (Blut and Boden), while
the Fascists in Italy covered every
wall with their slogan,
‘Believe! Obey! Fight! In
neither was there any expectation
that men should think or analyze.
Intuition: Bergson
appealed to It; Hitler Used It
“On the highest
philosophic levels, the new attitude
was justified. Bergson appealed to
intuition, and Hitler used it. Other
philosophers vied with one another to
demonstrate that old mechanism of
abstract, rational thought must
be rejected as irrelevant,
superficial, or meaningless. The
semanticists rejected logic by
rejecting the idea of general
categories or even of definition of
terms. According to them, because
everything is constantly changing
[relativism and the Hegelian
dialectic], no term can remain
fixed without at once becoming
irrelevant. The meaning of any word
depended on the context in which it
was used; since this was different
every time it was used, the meaning,
consisting of a series of
connotations based on all previous
uses of the term, is different at
each use.” Quigley, 1225.
Today’s Culture
Accepts Hitler’s Premises
The rejection of
analysis and logic, with appeal to
“intuition” is rampant in
today’s culture with its slogans
such as “Just do it.” In
other words, act on intuition without
thought, and, “If it feels good,
do it.”
Nazis Repudiate Moral
Absolutes
“The Nazis agree.
They, too, repudiate any unchanging
code of values, any fixed theory of
the nature of good and evil, virtue
and vice. No ethical principles, they
hold, their own included, are
permanently valid. There is no moral
absolutes. As in everything, so in
ethics; truth is flexible, adaptable,
and relative.
Pragmatism
“The Nazis’
relativism in ethics is reinforced by
another aspect of their ideology:
their pragmatism.” –Leonard
Peikoff, The Ominous Parallels: A
Brilliant Study of America Today-And
the ‘Ominous Parallels’
With the Chaos of Pre-Hitler Germany.
New York: Penguin, 1982, p. 89.
Nazism was based on
nihilism, on irrational activism, the
same powerful currents that shape
today’s postmodernism. Thus, the
same flux present in today’s
postmodernism. “The most widely
read of twentieth-century
philosophers, the existentialists,
reflected this same attitude.”
–Quigley, p. 1225.
The Stability of Moral
Absolutes is Being Completely Erased
From the Earth, Preparing the Way for
Rome’s Tyranny
After World War II for
a few decades there was a resurgence
in various areas of the culture of
rational analysis, operational
research, and organized scientific
attitudes, but by the 1990s and
twenty-first century this sector of
culture has been increasingly
challenged by the aftermath of the
resurgence of Irrational Activism,
Marxism, relativism and New Age
unleashed in the Hippie generation of
the 1960s. As the baby boomer,
generation has taken the reins of
power (notably in the Clinton era)
and as the rapper generation, X and Y
have been immersed in the violence
and irrational activism of their
nihilistic culture (including rap
music), the stability of moral
absolutes and rational thought are
being completely erased from the face
of the earth, preparing the world for
a resurgence of the authority of the
beast and its image.
True Christianity is
Self-abnegating: Contemporary
Spirituality is about Self-Discovery
“Clear contrasts
now emerge. Traditional Christian
spirituality is self-abnegating. It
values self-sacrifice and
self-discipline, a sacrifice and a
discipline that is required by the
moral world it inhabits. Because of
the felt obligation to curtail and
discipline the self, traditional
spirituality lives within doctrine
that is true and wants to live with
corporately practiced faith…
Contemporary spirituality which
opposes itself to religion is a
spirituality which, by contrast, is
about the business of
self-realization, or
self-discovery… and is
assuming, as Bloom puts it, that real
knowledge is found in ‘an inward
knowledge rather than an outward
belief.’…
Contemporary
Spirituality Has Clear Parallels With
Paganism and Early Gnosticism; Adapts
Itself continually to Moral
Relativism; Settled, Unmoving
Convictions Become Impediments
“This
spirituality has clear parallels with
paganism, but that is not all that it
is. While this pagan impulse
parallels what was evident in the
early gnosticism, it must also be
said that it is thoroughly
postmodern. This is the kind of
spirituality which goes hand in hand
with a flexible biography, with the ability
to reinvent one’s self, remake
one’s self, shift and adapt
consonant with the constantly
shifting demands of a virile economy
and workplace and with the changing
topography of moral reality. It is
the psychological counterpart of the
modern-driven economy and the collapse
of moral absolutes. Settled,
unmoving convictions, an inward core
of moral belief, easily become
impediments to the need to be
able to make quick adaptations as
changed contexts might require. This,
then, is the spirituality of those on
the move, those who live in the
interstices of the postmodern world,
those who know the rhythms, its
demands, and the punishment that it
inflicts on any who are unwilling to
shift as it shifts, those who will
not change as it changes, those who
look askance at expediency. This is a
spirituality, then, that is as
contemporary as is contemporary
society but, in other ways, as
ancient as the world is
ancient.”” Wells, pp.
154, 155.
Part and Parcel of
Babylon the Great
Thus souls enmeshed in
“contemporary spirituality”
are locked in with Babylon the
Great, reflecting Babylon’s
thinking and acting, forming a
character in harmony with the beast,
and thus preparing to assume the mark
(accepting the assumed authority of
Rome to change God’s law with
reference to the seventh-day
Sabbath), number (submission to papal
authority), and the name of the beast
(having an identity of character and
thinking with the beast).
“And that no man
might buy or sell, save he had the
mark, or the name of the beast, or
the number of his name.”
Revelation 13:17.
Revival of
the Gnostic Gospels in Contemporary
Spirituality
The Revival of the
Gnostic Gospels
Gnosticism is a
diabolical heresy from the Second
Century AD. The revival of gnosticism
is sweeping the field of religion.
The bookshelves in the bookstores are
now full of Gnostic
“gospels.” Here are just a
few of the titles of some of these
Gnostic gospels and books pertaining
to these Gnostic gospels displayed in
the bookstore section today:
·
The Gospel of Thomas,
·
The Gospel of Mary of Magdala,
·
Gospel of the Savior,
·
The Secret Gospel of John: The
Gnostic Gospel,
·
The Gnostic Gospels of Jesus: The
Hidden saying of Jesus,
·
The Brother of Jesus and the Lost
Teachings of Christianity,
·
The Secret Teachings of Mary
Madalene: Including the Lost Verses
of the Gospel of Mary, revealed and
published for the First Time,

Not Make It Into the New Testament,
·
The secrets of Judas: The Story of
the Misunderstood Disciple and His
Lost Gospel,
·
The Gnostic Bible
·
The Gospel of Judas Iscariot.
The
Gospel of Judas Iscariot
Perhaps the most
diabolical Gnostic ‘gospel”
is the recent Gospel of Judas
Iscariot, which, written in the
Second Century about 150 AD,
discovered in Egypt in the 1970s,
restored and translated into English
(2001-2006), puts forward the idea
that only Judas really understood
Jesus. In this false Gospel of Judas
Iscariot, Judas is seen as
Christ’s favorite. It is the
gospel told from Judas’
perspective. In this false, Gnostic
gospel, Judas does not betray His
master, but rather fulfills
Jesus’ wish. “Judas is
Jesus’ chosen instrument of
fulfillment.” –Krosney,
295.
The Son of Perdition
However, according to
the Biblical gospels, in the Gospel
of John in Jesus’ High Priestly
prayer in John 17: 12, Jesus prays,
“Those that Thou gavest Me I
have kept, and none of them is lost,
but the son of perdition; that the
scripture might be fulfilled.”
In John 13, after the
foot washing, Jesus said, “I
speak not of you all; I know whom I
have chosen: but that the scripture
may be fulfilled, He that eateth
bread with Me hath lifted up his heel
against Me.” John 13:18. Jesus
is quoting from Psalms 41:9:
“Yea, mine own familiar friend,
in whom I trusted, which did eat of
My bread, hath lifted up his heel
against me.”
In John 13, at the
Last Supper, gathered around the
table, Jesus declares, “One of
you shall betray Me.” He then
identifies who it is: “He it is,
to whom I shall give a sop, when I
have dipped it. And when He had
dipped the sop, He gave it to Judas
Iscariot, the son of Simon. And after
the sop, Satan entered into him. Then
said Jesus unto him, That thou doest,
do quickly…. He then having
received the sop went immediately
out: and it was night.” John
13:21, 26, 27, 30.
