Ik zou graag naar hem luisteren ( 100 video's op youtube) maar hij heeft een vorm van stotteren die me te zeer irriteert. ( Hij herhaalt vaak de laatste woorden van de vorige zin). Jammer.
Nu heeft hij een 9 pagina's lang essay geschreven over de enorme joodse macht in deze wereld.
Die begon als een klein golfje in 1791 toen Napoleon de joden meer vrijheid gaf. ( Afgedwongen? Een ruil? Omgekocht? In een brief schreef napoleon later dat hij de joden verachtte...)
Die emancipatie ging niet in een vloeiende lijn, maar gebeurde uiteindelijk wel, en hoe! In 1890 besefte de Kerk al dat dit het einde was van de wereld zoals wij die kennen.
We moeten die 'oude wereld' niet idealiseren, maar toch: oorlogen waren nog zonder burger slachtoffers. En wie door de Tsaar werd verbannen (zoals Lenin) naar Siberië had daar een leven als tijdens een vakantie. Vergelijk dat eens met de Gulag die 50 miljoen mensen over de kling joeg: alleen in de 30 jaar dat de joden de facto het land bestuurden, dus onder Stalin.
Moglia wijst op drie zaken die de joodse macht veroorzaakten:
1) Het ADL, de propaganda-machine waarmee elke kriticus op joden werd vernietigd. Vooral effectief na 1960, toen de Holocaust religie werd gesticht.
2) De Scofield bijbel die door alle Amerikanen wordt gebruikt, waarin word gezegd dat de Christenen pro-joods moeten zijn.
3) De EU en de massa-immigratie. Zie het Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, waarin dit als toekomst-idaal staat beschreven, en hetgeheel onder leiding van een joodse elite.
Ik zal zelf het lange artikel van [kopjes] voorzien. En van bold markering en onderstreping.

[Over geschiedschrijving. Meinecke.]
That all the world is a stage and all men and women
merely players is a familiar and generally accepted proposition. But many,
prompted by curiosity and helped by new information previously unknown or
uneasily available, would like to know more about the play they are the
unwitting players thereof.
Which transforms the frame of mind of the curious into
that of a historian. In turn, this exposes him to the immediate problem of
interpretation. Interpretation of the historical facts themselves, often
accompanied by a likely change of his worldview, following the discovery of new
facts. For historians themselves can modify their views, when forced by the
train of circumstances.
Here is an example. Friedrich Meinecke was an eminent
German historian, with an unusually long life span, during which a series of
revolutionary and extraordinary changes affected the fortunes of Germany. His
books reflect four different Meinecke(s), each the spokesman of different
times, and each speaking through one of his major works.
[[Nationalisme is puur menselijk]]
In his first, “World Citizenship and the Nation
State,” published in 1907, Meinecke sees the embodiment of German national
ideals in Bismarck’s Reich. And like many 19th and 20th century thinkers, he identifies nationalism with the highest
form of universalism.
Here is dramatic evidence of the revolution of the
times. In the parlance of current Western European & American elites,
nationalism, rather than a higher form of universalism, is labeled as ‘fascism’
or ‘racism’. And since the characterization is ludicrous, a new word has been
coined, ‘populism’, to demean and disgrace the idea.
In his second book, “The Idea of the Raison d’Etat,”
(published in 1925), Meinecke speaks with the divided and bewildered mind of an
observer of the Weimar Republic – where the world of politics has become an
arena of unresolved conflict between the reason-of-state and morality.
Morality, of itself, seems external to politics, but in the last resort it
affects the life and security of any state. For morality is written in the
human heart, even of those who hold it in contempt.
To frame the issues in today’s terms, since the end,
in the 1950s, of the “Legion of Decency” act in American Cinema,” Hollywood’s
productions have set the standard, planted the roots and sowed the of seeds of
shame and iniquity ( ongerechtigheid), in just about all domains of collective
and personal behavior.
In the Weimar Republic, as we know, it was the state
of universal degradation, promoted, inculcated and imposed upon Germany after
her defeat in WW1, that prompted the birth and growth of National Socialism.
In his “Development of Historicism” (published in
1936), Meinecke laments the idea of a certain view of history, which seems to
recognize that whatever is, is right.
In our days, examples of this ‘historicism’ are many,
from the totally unbelievable official explanation of 9/11, to the physical
destruction of the Middle East, the ongoing farce in Ukraine, the grotesque
Russophobia, the idea that Western European and North-American states can exist
without borders, and so on.
Finally, in 1946, after seeing his country defeated
and leveled to the ground, he published “The German Catastrophe,” where he
exposes the belief that history is at the mercy of blind and inexorable forces.
Pag 2.
That the times we live-in weigh on our thoughts and
judgment is as obvious as saying that a great cause of the night is lack of the
sun. Nevertheless, our individual evolving point of view also influences the
selection of the facts needed to produce an acceptable explanation of causes
and effects, or of causes and defects as the case may be.
That is, the historian and the facts of history are
necessary to one another. For a historian without his facts is futile; and
facts without a historian are dead and meaningless.
Finally – and I hope the strenuous reader will forgive
the long preamble, though I hope there is method in the meandering – not all
facts are historical. History begins when the historian selects certain facts
and declares them endowed with historical value.
But the distinction between historical and
unhistorical facts is not rigid or constant. Any fact may become historical, once its relevance and significance is
recognized. If so, that fact generates its own historical wave, whose effects
may be felt after a long time and with enormous power, unimaginable when the
fact occurred.
In
nature an analogy is the tsunami, where, at the point of origin, the waves are
only about 3 feet high. But travelling at incredible speed across incredible
distances, they finally release their apocalyptic energy on touching land.
[Moglia’s moment van inzicht.]
As someone ‘curious about history’ and not a professional
historian, I experienced a change of outlook on historical events when the
United States declared war on Iraq and destroyed it. For I knew the country
well and I could personally attest that all that was said about Iraq by the
organs of mass persuasion, was false. And while accepting the inherent
murkiness of politics, I could not reconcile myself to the idea that the two
Bushes, one of whom is dead, could be some of the lyingest knaves in
Christendom.
[ Destructie Midden Oosten begoin bij de emancipatie
van de joden onder Napoleon].
As it is universally accepted, the US destroyed Iraq
to satisfy Israel’s ambitions. And given that curiosity is the mother of
explanation, I took up the doubtful challenge of locating the original
historical fact, the trigger and the source of the wave-of-time, which
eventually led to the Iraqi Armageddon and beyond.
In this and similar instances, opinion reigns supreme.
Other ‘curious about history’ may choose another episode or fact, and with good
reason. But sometimes, lesser-known events, singularly representative of the
reality and culture of an era, can offer a perspective different from the
conventional and usual narratives.
In the instance, I pinpoint the source of the topic
wave-of-time in Napoleon’s emancipation of the Jews in France, following the
French Revolution.
Actually,
already in 1791, in the midst of the Revolution, the National Assembly had
granted Jews full citizenship. It was hoped that, by so doing, Jews would stop
acting like a separate nation within France. But soon there were complaints
that the Jews were stuck in their old ways, particularly in Alsace and
Lorraine, where their majority lived. Their ‘old ways’ referred to usury, or,
as we would say today ‘financial engineering’, or ‘banking shenanigans’.
The situation remained fluid and uncertain till
Napoleon, converted from a servant of the Republic into an Emperor, convened,
in 1807, what he called the Great Sanhedrin, to resolve the controversial
issues arisen from the emancipation. The Great Sanhedrin refers to the
governing body of the Jewish community, notably during the Roman Empire.
To a
council of 71 Jewish leaders and rabbis, Napoleon posed 12 questions about
their laws and customs. Some questions were amusing – for
example, were Jews allowed to have more than one wife? The main issue, however,
was whether Jews born in France, and now treated by law as citizens, would
regard France as their country. They
answered that there was nothing inherent in their religion preventing the full
integration of the Jewish community into French life. This was enough to
confirm their full recognition and emancipation, along with an obligation to
take up French names.
Perhaps Napoleon ignored that if a rose by any other
name would smell as sweet, a Shylock, by any other name would still call for
his pound of flesh.
In fact, there was immediate widespread opposition to
the move, in French-ruled Europe and in France itself. Even one of Napoleon’s
famous generals, Francois Christophe de Kellerman, whose name is inscribed in
the Arc de Triomphe, recommended strongly that the Jews be prohibited from
dealing in commerce.
With easy hindsight, Napoleon, like all who like to
anticipate futurity and exalt possibility to certainty, might or should have
avoided this adventure, so linked to chance. For, in this and other similar
instances, disappointment must always be proportionate to the breath of the
original hopes.
The pressure became so intense that soon Napoleon restricted the terms of
emancipation, via the so-called “Infamous Decree” of 1808. The decree
annulled, reduced or postponed all debts with Jews, and imposed a ten-year ban
on any kind of Jewish money-lending activity.
As an aside, the official public face of a notable
politician or ruler, often conflicts with his private persona, as seen in his
diaries or confidential papers. In a
letter to his brother Jérome Napoleon, dated 6 March 1808, Napoleon writes, “I
have undertaken to reform the Jews, but I have not endeavored to draw more of
them into my realm. Far from that, I have avoided doing anything which could
show any esteem for the most despicable of mankind.”
“Give me ten thousand eyes, and I will fill them with
prophetic tears” – said Cassandra predicting the fall of Troy. The most
Cassandra-like admonition given to Napoleon came from his uncle, Cardinal Fesh,
who told him, “Sire, by giving the Jews
equality as Catholics, you wish for the end of the world to come.”
But the onrush of events, including Napoleon’s defeat
at Waterloo, inaugurated a new era. When an atheistic ideology, molded in the
Age of Enlightenment, and strengthened by the impact of the French Revolution,
took hold and spread at large throughout Europe.
For the 19th century saw an upsurge of anti-clerical movements and ideologies in
the Western world. This is not a wholesale defense of organized religion.
Nevertheless, religion also acts as a bulwark ( verdedigings fort) of the moral
law. And irrespective of specific customs or ceremonies, religion – without disrespect – is metaphysics for the people, an
intelligible intimation of eternity, an unthreatening glimpse of the infinity,
a psychological safeguard from the despair of mortality.
In this context, it is not accidental that the rebirth
of Russia, earlier ravaged, debased and plundered by the dissolvers of the
Soviet Union, has seen the resurgence of her religion, which was dormant but never
died.
Compare this with America, with her enforced and
compulsive secularization, the banning of religion in schools and the
prohibition of public display of religious symbols.
[ Het Joodse vraagstuk ]
But I digress. Let’s return to the subject at hand.
After 1815, Jewish supremacy, especially in the banking field, asserted itself
in Europe, spearheaded by the ubiquitous House of the Rothschilds. In the
second part of the century, England even had a Jewish Prime Minister, Disraeli.
During that time, with a pronouncement that today
seems impossible, the Vatican declared that any country that abolishes the
Christian religion will be run by Jews.
It’s worth transcribing an extract from a 1890 issue
of “Civilta’ Cattolica,” the key media organ of the Jesuits and the Vatican,
“The XIXth century will end, in Europe, leaving her in
the throngs (het gedrang, de strijd over?) of a very sad issue, of which the
XXth century will feel consequences so calamitous, as to induce her (Europe) to
drastically deal with it. We refer to the improperly-called “Semitic Question,”
that more accurately should be called “Judaic Question” – which is connected
via an intimate link, to the economic, moral, political and religious
conditions of Europe.
How fervid at present and how much this question
perturbs the major nations, is manifest by the common cry against the invasion
by Jews in all spheres of public and social life; by the leagues formed to slow
its advance in France, Austria, Germany, Italy, Russia, Rumania and elsewhere.
By the calls for action in various Parliaments – by the large number of
newspaper articles, books and pamphlets that are constantly printed, all
showing the need to stem the growth of this plague, and to combat it, showing
evidence of its very pernicious consequences….
Naively, some try to show that the ”Judaic Question”
is the result of a (Christian) hatred of the (Judaic) religion or sect. Mosaism
(read ‘religion inspired by Moses) in itself could not be an argument for
hatred…. for it was the antecedent of Christianity… But for centuries Judaism
has turned its back on Mosaism, exchanging it with the Talmud, quintessence of
that pharisaism, many times blasted by Christ…. And although Talmudism is an
integral element of the Jewish question, we cannot say that (Talmudism) is all
that relevant to it (Judaic question). For in Talmudism the Christian nations
detest not so much the theological part, almost reduced to insignificance, but
the moral one, that contradicts the elementary principles of natural ethics…. “
[ een joods-christelijke beschaving? Plato bedacht de ‘Drie-eenheid’.]
Incidentally, and as another aside, it is customary to
describe the roots of European culture as “Judeo-Christian.” Many contend that
a better description would be the “Greek-Christian” tradition, as certain
important tenets of Christianity are actually derived from Plato. For example,
he suggested that a trinity of forces shapes the cosmos and he struggled with
the idea of a Being, purely incorporeal, executing a perfect model of the
universe and molding with his hand what was but a rude chaos of random forces.
As an explanation, or at least a theory, Plato
considered the divine nature of the universe under three modifications. There
was indeed a first cause, the Reason or Logos, the soul of the universe, along
with three subdivisions.
Readers may recall the beginning of St. John’s Gospel,
“In the beginning was the Word, and
the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” where ‘word’ is an imperfect and
narrow translation of the Greek ‘logos.’ For one of the meanings of ‘logos’ is
indeed ‘word’, but not with sense that we usually attribute to it. A better translation
could possibly be, “In the beginning was
the Reason of the Universe.”
Plato conceived of 3 original principles, incorporated
in the Logos, different, but linked to each other by a mysterious generation.
The important point is that the mystical and
mysterious concept of the Trinity is the Christian rendering of Plato’s idea.
The Trinity may still remain mysterious, but at least the mind can understand a
Father, a Son, and a Holy Spirit, better than Plato’s more symbolic rendering.
[ De oorsprong van de joodse macht: ADL, De Scofield
bijbel,
Back to
the main subject. During the early XXth century three events, distinct but
important affected the wave-of-time begun with Napoleon.
-------
One was the
establishment of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in 1913 – at first in America but now practically extended and enforced worldwide.
In fairness to its founders and all subsequent
members, it should really have been called the ‘Jewish Anti Defamation League.’
Though by astutely avoiding the qualifying adjective, ‘ADL’ suggests
impartiality, thus evading suspicion among the majority of the gentiles, who
rarely or superficially follow the details of political events and
institutions.
The actual purpose of the now ubiquitous and wealthy
ADL was and is to aggressively prevent any criticism of Zionism and Israel, by crushing
the critics, destroying their career, often depriving them of a livelihood and
even removing them from the Congress or the Senate.
Observers may have noticed that when the Prime Minister of Israel addresses a US joint session of
Senate and Congress, he routinely receives a record number of standing
ovations. And, after an ovation, no one wants to be the first to sit down –
presumably but also probably – for fear of being suspected of weaker
Pro-Zionist sentiments.
Readers familiar with the Communist world will easily
detect the stunning similarities between the new-speak of Communist Eastern
Europe and ADL’s new-speak and thought-crime – in America but also in Europe
and the English-speaking world at large.
As an example, in December 2018, the owner of a
pleasant yet unostentatious house in the Italian provincial city of Aosta,
installed a metal gate at the end of his driveway. The gate carried a
decorative wrought-iron winged eagle, reminiscent of a National Socialist
emblem, though without a swastika or other disturbing symbols.
But it was enough for a rabbi in Turin, 100 km away
(and presumably a member of a local ADL chapter), to have a judge issue a
search warrant and dispatch the Italian police to execute it against the
shocked, bewildered and disbelieving house-dweller.
The police carried a thorough search of the premises,
removed his computer, various personal effects and books from his library. In
the end all the ‘incriminating’ evidence they found – besides the eagle on the
gate – consisted of some books about the history of WW2.
Curiously, the event leading to the founding of the
ADL had nothing to do with defamation and all to do with the sexual assault and
murder of Mary Phagan, a 13-year old
girl in Atlanta, Georgia. Mary worked for the National Pencil Company, and
in May 1913 went to her place of work to collect her $1.20 earnings from the
company superintendent Leo Frank.
She was never seen again. Her body was later found in the basement of the
company, mutilated, bruised and with her undergarments torn off. She had been
strangled and Frank was the most likely suspect.
At the trial, Frank pleaded innocent and declared
himself a victim of hate. But after a thorough investigation, Frank was found
guilty. That is when Adolf Kraus, president of the Jewish-American order of
B’nai B’rith founded the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith. Its charter
reads:
“The immediate object of the league is to stop, by
appeals to reason and conscience and, if necessary, by appeals to law, the
defamation of the Jewish people. Its ultimate purpose is to secure justice and
fair treatment to all citizens alike and to put an end forever to unjust and
unfair discrimination and ridicule of any sect or body of citizens.”
Sometime later the outgoing governor of Georgia
commuted the sentence from death by hanging to life imprisonment. But the
leaders of the town were enraged by what they rated a corruption of justice.
They dragged Frank from the courthouse and hanged him.
Ever since, Leo Frank is viewed by the ADL as a kind
of patron saint; a man whose death serves as a reminder of the depths of
depravity to which men can sink when in the grip of xenophobic hatred.
Today, as universally acknowledged, the ADL is the lay arm of the Zionist
inquisition and a patently obvious instrument for censorship and the abolition of free speech.
-------
The
second momentous event I referred to was the publishing of the so-called
Scofield Reference Bible. Which
is a Bible annotated by Cyrus Scofield, a man of questionable background though
an able manipulator of souls and money.
Scofield and his Bible are responsible for the birth and expansion of Christian
Zionism. If there was ever a contradiction in terms, Christian Zionism is
one. It created a class of unpaid and obedient political eunuchs at the service
of the Zionist state.
Specific and central to Christian Zionist belief is
Skofield’s comment on Genesis 12:3 (the words in Italics are the comment NB: de
comments ìn de Scofield Bible! JV.)). ‘I
will bless them that bless thee.’ In fulfillment closely related to
the next clause, ‘And curse him that
curseth thee.’ Wonderfully fulfilled in the history of the
dispersion. It has invariably fared ill with the people who have persecuted the
Jew—well with those who have protected him. The future will still more
remarkably prove this principle.”
Though a struggling born-again preacher, Scofield
became a member of the exclusive New York ‘s Lotus Club, where he was
befriended by the Wall Street lawyer
Samuel Untermeyer. Untermeyer was instrumental in having Scofield’s
annotated bible published.
In Scofield’s biography, written by Joseph Canfield,
we read that Scofield’s theology was “most helpful in getting Fundamentalist
Christians to back the international interest in one of Untermeyer’s
projects—the Zionist Movement.”
Israel
holds the Christian Zionists in utter contempt. The Talmud considers Christ a
heretic boiling in excrement for eternity, and his mother a whore. Jehovah
allows goys to exist so as to be like donkeys in the service of the chosen
people.
But according to Fundamentalist preaching, at some
unspecified time in the future, there
will be what they call a ‘rapture,’ during which the Messiah will return to
earth and all Jews will convert to Christianity.
If Fundamentalism were played on a stage it would be
condemned as improbable fiction. Even Greek-Roman paganism contains more truth
than Fundamentalism and its absurd ‘dispensations,’ as they define their
ranting.
For the extravagance of the Grecian mythology
proclaimed clearly that the inquirer, instead of being scandalized or satisfied
with the literal sense, should diligently explore the occult wisdom, which had
been disguised, by the prudence of antiquity, under the mask of myth and the
display of follies practiced by the quizzical dynasty of the Olympian Gods.
The Fundamentalists
are a large congregation. Israel supplies their leaders with money, endowments
and private planes, while feeding and securing their lavish lifestyle.
-----
The
third event, whose momentousness and importance is
gradually being recognized, was Richard
Coudenhove-Kalergi’s launching of the plan for the creation of the European
Union, with extraordinary, new and revolutionary characteristics.
He was the son of the Austrian Ambassador to Japan, Heinrich
Coudenhove-Kalergi, who was also a great friend of Theodore Herzl, the
founder of modern Zionism.
In the 1920s Heinrich’s son, Richard
Kalergi, published a few books, the most important of which is “Praktischer
Idealismus,” never, as far as I know,
printed in English. The book is
important because what Kalergi prophesied, promoted and predicted about the
fate of Europe is occurring under our own eyes.
Kalergi
envisioned a unified Europe, invaded by Africans, who would miscegenate with
Europeans, creating a new negroid population, similar in appearance to the
characters depicted on the inside walls of Egyptians pyramids and tombs. Ruling
over them would be a class of “the best of the Jews” some of whom would
intermarry with the best of the European nobility.
In his autobiography Kalergi states that when his book
was printed, it came to the attention of the Jewish banker Schiff, who along
with the American Jewish banker Warburg generously financed him to carry out
his plan. From then on Kalergi would undertake a massive lobbying operation,
which – temporarily halted during WW2 – was restarted immediately afterwards.
An Italian history professor, Matteo Simonetti, has
published a very interesting book, titled “Kalergi, La Prossima Scomparsa Degli
Europei” (Kalergi, The Forthcoming Disappearance of the Europeans) – available
at Amazon. In his book, Prof. Simonetti included the most critical pages of
Praktischer Idealismus translated from the German. What transpires is even
worse than the disappearance of the Europeans.
I quote directly from the translation. At pages
21-22-23 of Praktischer Idealismus we find that “the future race,
negroid-caucasian will be composed by people without character, without
scruples, weak in their will, without respect (for one another) and
untrustworthy.
The new race will replace the multiplicity of people with a multiplicity of individuals.”
The new race will replace the multiplicity of people with a multiplicity of individuals.”
As for the ruling Jews, Kalergi describes them as
“close in blood”, whose “strength of character and sharpness of spirit”
predestines them to become “the race of (the new) Europe’s spiritual leaders,“
the “carriers of the nobility of spirit,”…. endowed of superior intelligence, a
race of lords (Herrenrasse)… the chosen people (pages 28, 33, 49-51 in the
original German book).
But it gets worse. The only free marital union will
apply to “the most noble of men and women.” Inferior men and women will mate
with their societal equivalent. The “erotic style” of the lower classes will be
casual mating. Only the upper classes will enjoy the free formation of
families.
The new cultivated nobility of the future will emerge
from the divine laws of erotic eugenics. “It is here, in social eugenism, where
the new nobility will achieve its historical mission of excellence” (pages
55-57).
The new miscegenated race of the lower classes will
live in “factory-cities,” where the factory will be the new “cathedral of
work”, the center and object of devotion of the new race of miscegenated goys
(page 110).
As for the elimination of genders, Kalergi hints at
the formation of a Brave-New-World society. “Today men of both sexes (sic)
command political and economic power. The emancipation of woman is but the
triumph of the feminine man over the real feminine woman. With the
emancipation, the feminine sex is mobilized for a technical war and regimented
into the army of labor.” (page 119)
As for democracy, Kalergi says it is an instrument to
be discarded, as soon as the new Jewish nobility will be established and in
charge. (page 36).
In summary, there we have it – the predicted
apocalyptic end of the tsunami – helped and driven by the ADL (at work to
criminalize free speech), the fundamentalists (a docile army of spiritual
eunuchs in the service of Israel), and the Kalergi Plan (a Europe of Negroids
ruled over by Jews).
As universally acknowledged, Jewish elites and politicians
are at the forefront of the push for illegal immigration and the abolition of
borders, worldwide.
And the Left, deprived of its reference class, the
proletariat, has made of the migrants a sort of fig leaf to prove that they
still side with the weak. Indeed, migrants are the new proletariat, because
their identity (or consciousness thereof) is not here, but elsewhere. But the
original inhabitants of the poorer districts of Europe and elsewhere have the
right not to be uprooted from their customs by a culturally heterogeneous
immigration. The migrants do not reside in London’s Chelsea, New York’s Upper
East Side or the posh districts of other cities. Nor they steal the jobs of
bank managers and corporate directors.
The chosen elites have decided that people are ugly,
dirty, bad and xenophobic because they do not want to accept migrants by the
millions. But it is the people who bear the weight of immigration and the loss
of manual work.
During the latter years of neo-liberalism and
turbo-capitalism, the cultural devaluation of labor has been possible thanks to
the reserve army made up of migrants. It is logical that the chosen elites
favor immigration. It frees them from relocating in the cesspits of despair, by
bringing cesspits and despair to the ugly and xenophobic locals, along with the
prospect of a Kalergi-type future.
We cannot know precisely how far the wave-of-time,
traced back to Napoleon, has travelled towards its end. For the laws of
probability, true in general, fail in the details. But given the essentially
unchallenged progress of the wave, I doubt whether the collective consciousness
of the European peoples will wake up and prompt them to react effectively in
self-defense.
Until historically recently, the Catholic Church
provided protection. It preached and prohibited violence against the chosen
people, but expected them not to corrupt the culture of the host nation. And
she gave them the option of conversion. By converting to Christianity, all true
or pretended forms of discrimination would be instantly removed.
But the Catholic Church has lost power and unity. In
recent Catholic pronouncements, it is even stated that Jews no longer need to
convert to be “saved.” And in current religious ceremonies the brethren are
invited to “pray for our elder brothers in the Abrahamic religion.”
Therefore, given that time comes stealing by night and day, I must
reluctantly observe that the very shortness of time and the failure of hope
will tinge with a deeper shade of brown the evening of our current historical
times, and the last act of the play performed on the current historical stage.
