CONCERTED ATTEMPT TO DESTROY OUR CIVIL AND RELIGIOUS LIBERTIES

Ulster is the last bastion of Bible Protestantism in Europe and the British Isles. After almost thirty years of brutal genocide and deliberate ethnic cleansing by the Roman Catholic terrorists of the IRA, a new strategy has been developed. As well as the boycott of Protestant shops and business premises and alongside the burning of Orange Halls and Protestant Churches, there is now an orchestrated campaign to deny Protestants their civil and religious freedom to march and parade.

So-called Nationalist/RC Residents Associations have sprung up all across the land with the aim and purpose of blocking all Orange and Protestant processions. It has already happened in Dunloy, Bellaghy, Pomeroy, Belfast and Portadown. The latter town has been the centre of this plot, where a Residents Group which contains a Jesuit priest of Rome and which is fronted by a convicted Roman Catholic terrorist would seek to prevent Orangemen marching home along the Garvaghy Road from Drumcree Church.

This is only the start. If Rome succeeds in halting marches and parades, the next target will undoubtedly be the preaching of the Gospel in the open air. Rome has always been the enemy of freedom. In fact Pope Pius IX in his Syllabus of Errors placed:

"Anathema (a curse) on the one who says "every man is free to embrace or profess the religion his judgement considers to be right." "

The Jesuit magazine "Civilita Catholica" in 1948 stated:

"The Roman Catholic Church must demand the right of freedom for herself alone."

WHERE ROME RULES - FREEDOM IS CRUSHED

CATHOLIC CHURCHES BRING INDIAN TRADITIONS INTO WORSHIP

BY RACHAEL GRAVES, ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

Fort Yates, N.D. (AP) - Pulsing drumming, high-pitched mystical chanting and the scent of sage are the first indications:The Saturday evening Mass at St. Peter`s Church is atypical.

St. Peter`s, on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, is at the forefront of a movement within the Catholic Church to embrace native traditions with a monthly liturgy that incorporates Lakota culture.

Brother George Maufort says the idea is to "integrate the culture into the worship as much as possible…so people can own this as their church."

Reuben Fast Horse, who grew up on the Standing Rock Reservation and was also part of the group that sought to bring the Lakota traditions into the Mass, wanted the church to have Indian depictions of Jesus.

While travelling, he had seen renderings of Jesus as a Hawaiian and, in Alabama, as a black.

"Why not us? Why can`t we have a Native American image of Jesus Christ?" he asked.

"Until religion and Jesus are depicted in Indian images, Christianity will always be foreign…will be the white man`s religion," said the Rev. Martin Broken Leg, an Episcopalian priest and professor of Native American Studies at Augustana College in Sioux Falls, S.D. "We can only approach Scripture out of who we are ourselves."

In addition to representing Jesus with different skin colour and physical features, Broken Leg said the stories should be culturally adapted. For example, instead of depicting Jesus on the cross, He could be shown in a sundance ceremony, a ritual of personal offering, Broken Leg said.

Phyllis White Eyes-DeCory is the director of a Rapid City, S.D., task force working on a model combining native traditions and Catholicism. The model includes using traditional incenses like sage, cedar and sweet grass; native music and the sacred pipe ceremony, she said.

It is Lakota-oriented, but White Eyes-DeCory said the group is "pioneering this for all Native Americans."

The task force is awaiting approval of the model by the bishop of the Rapid City diocese.

"I hope it`s like a prairie fire that will catch on and just burn all the way through; that each tribe will say, "Hey,I`ve been missing this all my life," she said.

"It`s about time that we as native people are being recognised by the Vatican," White Eyes said. "We shouldn`t feel like stepchildren anymore."

The Rev. Casimir Paluck at St. Peter`s said his congregation had doubled since adopting the Lakota liturgy. "It is a way to repair the hurt done by the Catholic Church in the past," said Paluck.

That hurt raises the question: Why would Indians want to observe Catholicism?

"I have come across a number of folks that are quite puzzled that there isn`t more hostility," Broken Leg said.

Religion was used by the U.S. government as a way to indoctrinate Indians, he said. Tribal members were forced to give up their way of life, their customs and even their language.

But once those traditional ways of life were destroyed, the church became the easiest way to continue a spiritual way of life, Broken Leg said.

"Spirituality plays a really major role in Lakota life," Fast Horse said.

Fast Horse, who is a culture teacher in Fort Yates, said he hopes by bringing an "Indian flavour" to Catholicism, he can identify more with the religion.

He observes Catholicism because it was important to his grandfather, he said, and because "when everything was dead or dying on the reservation…..the church seemed to be an outlet."

CATHOLIC CHURCH BEATIFIES FIRST GYPSY

ROME - Not all of the Gypsies who arrived in caravans this weekend at the Fabulous Camping trailer park on the outskirts of Rome had a very clear idea of who Ceferino Jimenez Malla was.

But what they did know - and this was the reason they came from as far away as Slovakia and Brazil - was that the illiterate Spanish horsetrader, executed by a firing squad during the Spanish Civil War, was about to become the first Gypsy ever beatified by the Roman Catholic Church.

Beatification does not mean that Mr. Jimenez Malla is a saint. Completing the additional steps towards canonisation would typically require documenting that two miracles had occurred through his intercession.

There was a message in the relatively quick beatification of Mr. Jimenez Malla - not only for Gypsies but for some other Catholic populations as well. Under Pope John Paul, the Catholic Church has achieved new records in the number of beatifications and canonisations, particularly in the developing world, where he has sought to enhance the image of the Church.

HITLER SINGS

Hitler, as a boy, had a good singing voice, and on certain afternoons attended the choir school at his Catholic monastery under the tutelage of Catholic padre Bernhard Groner. On the way, young Hitler had to pass by a stone arch in which was carved the monastery`s coat of arms - its most prominent feature, a swastika - which he admired and later used for his Catholic Nazi Party and SS.

The child Hitler was raised in the traditions of the Roman Catholic Church, and received his early education at a parochial school at a Benedictine monastery. He regularly attended mass in those years and served as a choir boy. The fond dream of the youthful Adolph Hitler was to enter a seminary and eventually take holy orders to the ordained Roman Catholic priesthood.

The insane Adolph Hitler despised Protestants and Protestantism, but respected the power and organisation of the Roman Catholic institution, and indeed formed the Nazi Party along the lines of the entire Catholic institution. The cruel SS was formed along the lines of the Jesuits. Hitler said:"Providence has made me born Catholic."

Hitler`s infamous political book, "Mein Kampf" is believed to have been at least in part ghost-written for him by a Jesuit priest.

The Pope had Concordats or political treaties with all the Nazi/Fascist leaders - Hitler, Mussolini and Franco.

"Father" Tiso, the Roman Catholic dictator in war-time Slovakia said, "Nazism and Catholicism are marching together to reshape the world."
