The Vatican has released a new version of their inaugural The Pope Video. One can watch it if they so wish below as well as the original video. The two videos are identical until they reach the 1 minute 6 seconds mark. The new changes last until the 1 minute 22 seconds mark and are footage of Francis glad handling heads of heretical religions and giving out spiritual hugs. Regardless, the message is still one of modernism — a false one-world religion.
Who knew that Francis was a historical revisionist?
Francis accepts his gift...the Koran on 29 March 2017.
Since, Francis believes that the god of Islam and God of Christianity are the same...
...why not add some Moslem clothing to his ‘humble’ closet?
It comes with a new title, ‘Pope Sheik’ which is fitting for Imam Bergoglio.
‘Death to Catholic Europe and Catholics in the Middle East!’
Francis addressed the Standing Committee for Dialogue Between the Papal Council for Interreligious Dialogue and the Superintendents of Iraq, the highlight was this gem of modernism.
Francis: “We are brothers and, as brothers, we are all different and all the same. Like the fingers on a hand: there are five fingers, all are fingers, but all different.”
Who do the five fingers represent? According to those groups in attendance from the inter-religious Iraqi delegation; Shiites, Sunnis, Yazidis, Mandaeans, and Christians. How many of those fingers reject Jesus as the Christ?
After receiving a Koran as a gift this brief exchange of words took place.
Moslem: “This is a symbol... given to the sheikhs. So they call you Pope Sheikh.”
Rabbi Marcelo Polakoff and Bishop Pedro Torres return to sing...
A Christmas sher — a Chanukah carol — it’s a musical dialogue!
English version
Pedro Javier Torres Aliaga was appointed the Titular Bishop of the See of Numidia and as auxiliary bishop and vicar general of the Archdiocese of Córdoba by Francis on 16 November 2013. This clown prince of the Novus Ordo is Executive Secretary of the Episcopal Commission of Ecumenism and Relations with Judaism, Islam and Religions, Preacher of Spiritual Retreats for Argentina, and considered by the media to be an expert on morality, bioethics, ecumenism and interfaith dialogue.

Since it is Passover, why not read the impressively researched Blood Passover by Ariel Toaff published in February 2007? This book extensively documents and gives strong evidence that in some cases Ashkenazi Jews were guilty of committing the ritual murder of Christian children in Europe. Available for less than one week in Italian bookstores (in which 3,000 copies were sold), before the publisher recalled the book and pulped it due immense pressure put upon them by Zionists. One year later a revised 2nd edition was issued that had been purged of offending items which Toaff accused the media of distorting and turning into falsehoods. A review of the original Italian edition by Atila S. Guimarães can be read here (Jewish Scholar Exposes Ritual Crimes by His Ashkenazy Fellows). For those interested in accessing the 1st Italian electronic edition it can be found over at archive.org, Pasque di Sangue (Ariel Toaff, 2007). [No longer available due to ADL censorship.]
Unbelievable?! Nope, it's the fruit of Vatican II! Thanks, Nostra Aetate! It doesn't matter anymore if you believe Jesus the Christ is the Savior, nor what religion you belong to. They are all equal...in the eyes of Francis!
So much for the reign of The Kingship of Christ on earth...peace and justice will now come from “interreligious dialogue”.
Rabbi Walter Homolka shakes Francis' hand. (28 October 2015)
“In September 2008, the Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel startled his audience at a Holocaust Educational Trust appeal dinner in London when he declared: "I was there when God was put on trial at a concentration camp." When the JC put doubts of Rabbi Jonathan Romain and Rabbi Dan Cohn-Sherbock to Mr Wiesel, he replied: "Why should they know what happened? I was the only one there. It happened in Auschwitz at night; there were just three people. At the end of the trial, they used the word chayav, rather than 'guilty'. It means 'He owes us something'. Then we went to pray."”
to Christian-Muslim dialogue because it's God's will!
“Mourad said he believes his reputation at the monastery, where he fostered interfaith dialogue between Christians and Muslims, saved his life.
“I’m convinced I’m alive also thanks to this mission . the work we did contributed to preventing Islamic State (ISIS) from killing me,” he said.
He recalled a moment in which he thought he was to be killed, when a man came and asked if he was Christian. But — to Mourad’s surprise — the man then greeted him.
“That amazed me because normally the people (militants) don’t shake Christians’ hands or touch them, because they consider them impure. They don’t even greet Muslims that don’t think like them,” Mourad said.”
“On Aug. 4, the self-proclaimed Islamic State captured and demolished Mar Elian monastery, where Mourad had served for 15 years. Aside from the extensive archaeological excavation and renovations he oversaw, the priest promoted dialogue and coexistence between Christians and Muslims.
“For many years he built bridges between the religions. This has now proved its value in the war,” the Rev. Jihad Youssef, a fellow Syriac Catholic, told the Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need after Mourad’s abduction.
Mourad also had been sheltering Christian and Muslim refugees at the monastery.
When asked by Catholic News Service how he sees his mission for the future, the priest shrugged his shoulders and responded: “After this happened to me, I have a bigger responsibility now, with Christian-Muslim dialogue. We can’t play with God’s will.””

These men are indeed "all equal" in that none of them hold the beliefs of the Catholic Faith and "all different" in that each one expouses a different anti-Christian outlook:
Albert Guigui is a Moroccan born Talmudic Jew who is an advocate for stamping out 'Islamphobia' and 'anti-semitism' in the world as he seeks to recreate the 'peaceful harmony' of the Morocco he grew up in.
Johan Bonny is pro-sodomite 'marriage', pro-contraception, pro-cohabitation, and sees his purpose as helping the church learn how to be a minority in a Moslem majority.
Khalid Benhaddou at 27 years old is one of the youngest imans in Europe who also holds several passports including Moroccan, French, and Belgian. He is the (false) 'moderate front' of the Salafists in Europe.
Dear Brothers and Sisters: Today’s Audience marks the fiftieth anniversary of the Second Vatican Council’s DeclarationNostra Aetateon the Church’s Relation to Non-Christian Religions. I welcome the followers of the different religions who have joined us, especially those who have come from great distances. The Council’s Declaration was an expression of the Church’s esteem for the followers of other religious traditions, and her openness to dialogue in the service of understanding and friendship. The past fifty years have seen much progress in this regard. In a special way, we give thanks to God for the significant advances made in relations between Christians and Jews, and in those between Christians and Muslims. The world rightly expects believers to work together with all people of good will in confronting the many problems affecting our human family. It is my hope that the forthcoming Jubilee of Mercy will be an occasion for ever greater interreligious cooperation in works of charity, reconciliation and care for God’s gift of creation. As we look to the future of interreligious dialogue, let us pray that, in accordance with God’s will, all men and women will see themselves as brothers and sisters in the great human family, peacefully united in and through our diversities.
I greet the English-speaking pilgrims and visitors taking part in today’s Audience, including those from England, Wales, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Nigeria, Israel, Australia, Indonesia, Japan and the United States of America. In a particular way I greet the ecumenical delegation from Korea, and I renew my thanks to the representatives of the different religions who have joined us today. God bless you all!
Philadelphia International Airport Sunday, 27 September 2015
Dear Friends,
My days with you have been brief. But they have been days of great grace for me and, I pray, for you too. Please know that as I prepare to leave, I do so with a heart full of gratitude and hope.
I am grateful to all of you and to the many others who worked so hard to make my visit possible and to prepare for the World Meeting of Families. In a particular way I thank the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, the civil authorities, the organizers, and all the many volunteers and benefactors who assisted in ways large and small.
I also thank the families who shared their witness during the Meeting. It is not so easy to speak openly of one’s life journey! But their honesty and humility before the Lord and each of us showed the beauty of family life in all its richness and diversity. I pray that our days of prayer and reflection on the importance of the family for a healthy society will inspire families to continue to strive for holiness and to see the Church as their constant companion, whatever the challenges they may face.
At the end of my visit, I would also like to thank all those who prepared for my stay in the Archdioceses of Washington and New York. It was particularly moving for me to canonize Saint Junípero Serra, who reminds us all of our call to be missionary disciples, and I was also very moved to stand with my brothers and sisters of other religions at Ground Zero, that place which speaks so powerfully of the mystery of evil. Yet we know with certainty that evil never has the last word, and that, in God’s merciful plan, love and peace triumph over all.
Mr. Vice-President, I ask you to renew my gratitude to President Obama and to the Members of Congress, together with the assurance of my prayers for the American people. This land has been blessed with tremendous gifts and opportunities. I pray that you may all be good and generous stewards of the human and material resources entrusted to you.
I thank the Lord that I was able to witness the faith of God’s people in this country, as manifested in our moments of prayer together and evidenced in so many works of charity. Jesus says in the Scriptures: “Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me”. Your care for me and your generous welcome are a sign of your love for Jesus and your faithfulness to him. So too is your care for the poor, the sick, the homeless and the immigrant, your defense of life at every stage, and your concern for family life. In all of this, you recognize that Jesus is in your midst and that your care for one another is care for Jesus himself.
As I leave, I ask all of you, especially the volunteers and benefactors who assisted with the World Meeting of Families: do not let your enthusiasm for Jesus, his Church, our families, and the broader family of society run dry. May our days together bear fruit that will last, generosity and care for others that will endure! Just as we have received so much from God –gifts freely given us, and not of our own making – so let us freely give to others in return.
Dear friends, I embrace all of you in the Lord and I entrust you to the maternal care of Mary Immaculate, Patroness of the United States. I will pray for you and your families, and I ask you, please, to pray for me. May God bless you all. God bless America!
"While we were in Rome last month, we had the opportunity to sit down with one of the most faithful bishops in the world — Bishop Athanasius Schneider. He has made a point of traveling the world and insisting on fidelity to Church teachings.
And he isn’t afraid to call out problems and speak to the severe consequences that flow from a lack of fidelity."
Adelante la Fe:Your Excellence has recently visited the SSPX [seminaries] in the United States and France. We know it was a “discreet” meeting but, can you make an evaluation for us of what you saw and talked with them about? What expectations do you have of a coming reconciliation and which would be the main obstacle for it? Mons. Schneider:The Holy See asked me to visit the two [seminaries] of the SSPX in order to conduct a discussion on a specific theological topic with a group of theologians of the SSPX and with His Excellency Bishop Fellay. For me this fact shows that for the Holy See the SSSPX is not a negligible ecclesiastical reality and that it has to be taken seriously. I am keeping a good impression of my visits. I could observe a sound theological, spiritual and human reality in the two [seminaries]. The “sentire cum ecclesia” of the SSPX is shown by the fact that I was received as an envoy of the Holy See with true respect and with cordiality. Furthermore, I was glad to see in both places in the entrance area a photo of Pope Francis, the reigning Pontiff. In the sacristies there were plates with the name of Pope Francis and the local diocesan bishop. I was moved to assist the traditional chant for the Pope (“Oremus pro pontifice nostro Francisco…”) during the solemn exposition of the Blessed Sacrament.
To my knowledge there are no weighty reasons in order to deny the clergy and faithful of the SSPX the official canonical recognition, meanwhile they should be accepted as they are.This was indeed Archbishop Lefebvre’s petition to the Holy See: “Accept us as we are”....
...When the SSPX believes, worship and conducts a moral [life] as it was demanded and recognized by the Supreme Magisterium and was observed universally in the Church during a centuries long period and when the SSPX recognizes the legitimacy of the Pope and the diocesan bishops and prays for them publicly and recognizes also the validity of the sacraments according to the editio typica of the new liturgical books,this should suffice for a canonical recognition of the SSPX on behalf of the Holy See. Otherwise the often repeated pastoral and ecumenical openness in the Church of our days will manifestly lose its credibility and the history will one day reproach to the ecclesiastical authorities of our days that they have “laid on the brothers greater burden than required” (cf. Acts 15:28), which is contrary to the pastoral method of the Apostles.
"If the world hate you, know ye, that it hath hated me before you.
If you had been of the world, the world would love its own: but because
you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world,
therefore the world hateth you.
Remember my word that I said to you: The servant is not greater than
his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if
they have kept my word, they will keep yours also. But all these things they will do to you for my name' s sake: because they know not him who sent me. If I had not come, and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. He that hateth me, hateth my Father also.
If I had not done among them the works that no other man hath done,
they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me
and my Father. But that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law: They hated me without cause."
Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio became Pope Francis I on March 13, 2013; by December, he was Time’s “Man of the Year”; and in January, the Huffington Post announced rave reviews by the “Forward 50 list of top American Jews” as well.
Calling the Jewish People “Our big brothers” on the 75th
anniversary of Kristallnacht certainly helped, as did his giving Rabbi
Abraham Skorka (of the Seminario Rabinico Latinoamericano) an honorary
doctorate from the Catholic University of Argentina.
But this Jewish adulation is also a sigh of relief following an era
when Jewish-Catholic relationships seemed again to be in jeopardy. After
centuries of Catholic enmity over the Jewish “rejection” of Christ,
Vatican II had surprised the world with its1963 affirmation that God
still “holds the Jews most dear” and “does not repent of the calls He
issues.” That is to say, Judaism has not, after all, been superseded by
Christianity; Jews should not be reviled as Christ killers; and
Christian anti-Semitism must cease.
That was the liberalizing era of Popes John XXIII and Paul VI,
however. With their successors, John Paul II and then Benedict XVI, the
revival of conservative forces in the Vatican made Jews suspect the
imminent return also of medieval Catholic separatism.
When Francis
reasserted the “common roots” of Jews and Christians, and the reminder
that “a true Christian cannot be anti-Semitic,” Jews concluded that the
gains of Vatican II might be here to stay.
But the Jewish love affair with Francis isn’t all about self-interest.
An article in Haaretz (Anshei Pfeffer, “Pope Francis Cannot
save Us.” Dec. 11, 2013) got it right: “In the total absence of truly
charismatic political or spiritual figures, in a generation where
Israel’s elected leaders and rabbis constantly make us cringe with their
outrageous statements or despair at their hopeless blandness,
Bergoglio… extends some hope that we may yet see some wise old men [sic]
of faith in our lifetime.”
We would say “men and women” not just “men”; being “old” has nothing
to do with it; and the issue is not just Israel. But otherwise, hurray
for Haaretz for observing that the positive public voice of
Judaism has been wanting. Whatever happened to the Jewish visionaries
who spoke truths instead of platitudes, posited promises of Jewish
purpose rather than threats to Jewish continuity, held out hope for a
troubled world, and made us proud to know that our Judaism is deep and
wise, compassionate and compelling?
Who remembers the days when Abraham Joshua Heschel spoke poetically
and prophetically to reassure a worldwide audience that religion still
had something important to say? Or when thousands of Reform Jews
gathered biennially, to hear Rabbi Alexander Schindler demand that they
act boldly, think creatively, and make a difference?
The relative dearth of such voices today is a generational flaw, not
because rabbis now are less able, but because of the way they have been
trained (their “spiritual formation,” in theological language). Heschel
and Schindler took it for granted that as experts in Jewish tradition,
rabbis think deeply, speak boldly, and command a bully pulpit. Seeing
flaws in this “Big Man” model of leadership, their students (my
generation) emphasized alternative strategies like team work,
collaboration, and facilitating group process.
So far so good – but we went too far: confusing authoritarianism with authority, we stopped speaking authoritatively.
Congregations aid and abet this downfall of authority by making
rabbis managers, bureaucrats and apparatchiks. Success is attending
meetings and managing a process that slowly creaks along while people
forget why it is creaking altogether.
The economy hasn’t helped either: those in positions of national
authority (not just Jews but everyone) exhaust themselves just to avoid
closing plants and programs – leaving little time or energy to think or
to proclaim anything. The national mood too is at fault for thriving on
negativity and crippling great vision with a lethal combination of
parsimonious bookkeeping and meanness of spirit.
What is the point of religion in the first place, however, if not to
insist on vision, especially where the complexities of life seem to
foster helplessness and hopelessness, precisely our situation today?
So along comes Francis, a welcome reminder of religion beyond
bureaucracy, and heralding the best that we must become. I do not agree
with everything he says – his economics, for example; and, no doubt, he
has his own conservative naysayers who cringe at the very things that
make the rest of us stand up and applaud.
But most Jews are on their feet and clapping – not just for Francis,
but for what he represents and what we miss. The responsibility for
making up that loss cannot be laid on the shoulders of the rabbinate
alone. We have all colluded in manufacturing our problem; we must all
work together in solving it.
Synagogues can insist on rabbis with learning and vision – then
expect them to learn and engage them in visioning. Seminaries can demand
that students think deeply, not just hurriedly and passingly;
philanthropists can invest in big ideas with a future, not just reactive
strategies dictated by the past. Jews don’t need Francis; we need
rabbis like him, because without them, it remains unclear why we should
even remain Jewish in the first place.

Her television programs include: The Dead Sea Scrolls and on Buddhism East and West.
Listen below to Omar & Abraham describe how they met Jorge Mario Bergolio, what interreligious dialogue is, who influenced them to take the path they have in life, and what Francis means for Christianity as well as the idolatry of Talmudic Judaism & of Mohammedanism.
In an future post one can read how the Mayor of Philadelphia sealed the deal on Francis' visit to his city by giving him six sport jerseys and by wearing a red Kaballah bracelet. Another little known gift given to Francis during the Philadelphia delegation's visit were three types of dreidels. We wonder has he played with them during Hannukah? Below is an article on these dreidels which the author works in a connection to the concentration camps of World War II in a roundabout way and Rabbi Geoffrey W. Dennis explaining the mysticism of the dreidel. Underlines are ours for emphasis.
ROME - When Jeannette Lerman-Neubauer of Philadelphia steps forward to greet Pope Francis at an audience here Wednesday, the three small gifts she presents him might strike him as curious.
First, they are Jewish. They are also associated with children, not elderly popes. And they are traditionally used to celebrate Hanukkah, still many months away. If Lerman-Neubauer has an opportunity to explain the gifts, she said she would tell Francis about the moving audience her father had with Pope John Paul II a decade ago. How John Paul, the Polish-born pope, and Miles Lerman, a founder of the Holocaust Museum in Washington, shared memories of the Nazi extermination of Polish Jews during World War II.
"They were both focused on reconciliation," Lerman-Neubauer explained in an interview.
Her visit with Francis will come as part of the delegation of Philadelphians who have traveled to Rome this week to highlight preparations for the Eighth World Meeting of Families, an international, Vatican-sponsored gathering that will meet in Philadelphia in September 2015.
She will attend along with her husband, Joseph Neubauer, chairman and former CEO of Aramark and one of a number of civic leaders from the Philadelphia region who have been tapped by Archbishop Charles J. Chaput to help raise money to host and stage the event. Chaput named Neubauer cochair of the World Meeting's board of trustees, which has already received pledges of $5 million.
That a Conservative Jewish couple would choose to involve themselves in so emphatically a Roman Catholic event might seem unusual to some, said Lerman-Neubauer. "But Philadelphia has always had a long history of interfaith cooperation," she said, noting that Benjamin Franklin was a contributor Congregation Mikveh Israel, the city's first synagogue. "That gesture has always touched me deeply," she said. "I think it speaks to the character of our city."
Lerman-Neubauer, 64, said she had no expectation of meeting Pope Francis when her husband first agreed to serve as cochair of fund-raising. But when she learned several weeks ago that a delegation from Philadelphia - including her and her husband - would meet with him in late March, she remembered her father's own encounter with John Paul in 2004.
Miles Lerman grew up one of 10 children in Belzec, in eastern Poland, and was a teenager when World War II began. His parents and grandparents and seven siblings were soon rounded up and sent to death camps, but Miles Lerman was assigned to a slave labor camp building a road.
The Nazis erected the first of their notorious death camps in Belzec, where more than 500,000 Jews were eventually put to death. Lerman himself might have been sent to die had he not overpowered his guards one day and made an escape. He survived the war, Lerman-Neubauer said, by working with the Polish underground resistance. He met his future wife, Chris Laks, after the war at a displaced persons camp in Poland, hoping to learn if any of their family members had survived.
Few had, and Laks was lucky to be alive. She and two of her sisters had first been sent to Jewish ghettos and then assigned to forced labor, first at Treblinka, then Auschwitz. But as the German war effort began to falter and Russian troops pushed west, the Germans sent many of the labor camp inhabitants on a forced march. En route, her mother and her sisters were able to hide in some woods and survived the war's end.
After her father and mother married, they moved to New York City and then settled in Vineland, N.J., where - with their limited English - they could live economically as farmers. Miles Lerman eventually became a distributor for Amoco Gas Co., grew wealthy, and in the 1970s, around age 60, began to get involved in growing effort within the United States to memorialize the Holocaust.
He raised millions of dollars towards creation of what would become the National Holocaust Museum. Lerman also led and funded efforts to create a visitors' center and small museum at what remained of the neglected and largely overlooked Belzec death camp, where members of Joseph Neubauer's family had been executed. The center was dedicated in June, 2004.
Although Pope John Paul II was unable to attend due to failing health - he would die the next year - he asked a Polish cardinal to represent him at the dedication ceremony and invited Lerman and his wife to meet with him in Rome.
Barely able to speak, the ailing pontiff nevertheless "lit up" when Lerman was presented to him, and reached out to pat him on the cheek, a moment that was captured by Vatican photographers and became a treasured family memento.
"My father was beaming. He had this beatific glow," she recalled. "I think it meant so much to them because, when they were in the war, fighting to survive, they felt there was nobody who cared for them.
"To find themselves in the presence of the pope, who was working so hard towards Jewish-Christian reconciliation, and to make sure that such horror never happens again - well I think it recreated hope for them. It recreated trust the power of good will vanquish the power of evil."
Miles Lerman died in 2008. His wife is still active in promoting awareness of the Holocaust.
And so, as she and her husband began to plan for their own meeting with Pope Francis this week, she struggled to think of a suitable gift.
"Then I thought: 'Let's bring him a dreidel.' "
Unsure what type of dreidel to give Francis, she settled on three. One, carved from olive wood, comes from the Holy Land. Another is a piece of folk art, folded from magazine paper. And the third is "painted wood. Not fancy.
But it spins the best," she said, "if he wants to try it."
**Hannukah = the miracle of Hannukah in Talmudic Judaism was that the oil burned for eight days instead of one because their god was showing his continued adoration of the Jewish people. (for more see, The Hannukah Hoax)

Pharisees Timothy Dolan & Noam Marans celebrate 50 years of their Noahide church
Celebration of Nostra Aetate A three-day symposium at The Catholic University of America
May 19-21, 2015
Welcome Message from the Dean:
One of the most significant documents produced by the Second Vatican Council was Nostra Aetate,
the Decree on the Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions,
which expressed the Catholic Church's positive regard for other faiths
which often reflect a ray of that truth which enlightens all people, and
in particular put Catholic-Jewish relations on a whole new footing,
deploring anti-Semitism and emphasizing the 'common spiritual heritage'
between Christians and Jews. 2015 sees the 50th anniversary of this
great document, and The Catholic University of America and the United
States Conference of Catholic Bishops warmly invite you to an
outstanding conference to mark the occasion. Three cardinals will
deliver keynote addresses, Cardinal Dolan of New York and Cardinal Koch
from the Vatican on Catholic-Jewish relations, and Cardinal Tauran from
the Vatican on Catholic-Islamic relations; further distinguished
speakers from CUA and elsewhere will consider the art of dialogue, the
links between interreligious dialogue and ecumenism, what can be learnt
from Asian religions, and prospects for the future; and Rev. Tom
Stransky who was actually there, will reflect on the drafting of Nostra Aetate. Please join us for this landmark event!
Monsignor Paul McPartlan Acting Dean School of Theology and Religious Studies The Catholic University of America Note:
The 50th anniversary of the document Nostra Aetate,
published by the Second Vatican Council, is an opportunity to bring
together not only distinguished keynote speakers, but also local and
national volunteers interested in ecumenical and interreligious dialogue
with partners from Jewish, Muslim, and other religious traditions.
Accordingly, as well as, offering a more general open program available
to the public, the conference will include closed sessions in which
Catholics and Muslims, and Catholics and Jews, respectively, will meet
in official dialogue.
Pharisee Dolan & Rabbi Marans on their Noahide church
6 minutes Pharisee Dolan's speech begins
39 minutes Pharisee Marans' speech begins
52 minutes 58 seconds Rabbi Marans gives the audience a lesson on Oral Torah [the Talmud] and how Nostra Aetate is equivalent to Oral Torah [the Talmud]. The most explicit example of the Oral Nostra Aetate [or Talmudic Nostra Aetate] is the behavior of the recent pontiffs; visits to synagogues, trips to Israel, participation in Talmudic Jewish religious rituals, constant dialogue, and shoving Noahidism down the throats of their followers.
1 hour 8 minutes A woman in the crowd thanks Dolan & marans for their speeches and says it is, "really shaking our souls and our hearts." This brings to mind the words of Rabbi Arbraham Heschel, who helped draft Nostra Aetate, "I want to attack their [Christians'] souls."
We cover the following a second time as we at Call Me Jorge... cannot stress this point enough. Rabbi Marans at the 53 minute mark in above video talks of using the Talmudic tradition of the rabbis as a lens for understanding the impact of Nostra Aetate. This Talmudic tradition, we remind the reader, nullifies God's laws. Marans says that in today's Judaism the written Torah can only be understood by the Oral Torah. And that the same can be said about Nostra Aetate. He further states Nostra Aetate wouldn't exist without the 'Oral' or rabbinical Nostra Aetate. This is a candid admission from a rabbi that the faith practiced by the post-Vatican II church is no longer Catholic. Cardinal Dolan and company sit there and do not object. Is it any wonder Our Lord said,
"But yet the Son of man, when he cometh,
shall he find, think you, faith on earth?"
The enemies of Christ are in charge and the sheeple in the pews go along with them as they have for so many years. Did the sheeple forget to learn their catechism? Or do they worship the rabbinical gods too?
