Freemasonry and Judaism

From ‘the plot against the church’ by maurice pinay. Chapter two: The Jews as Founders of Freemasonry.

“To unmask Freemasonry” – said Leo XIII – “means to conquer it.” When we lift its mask, then every honest mind and every Christian heart will turn away from it with revulsion; and through this fact alone will it fall, completely destroyed and detested particularly by those who obey it. The learned scholar and Jesuit Monsignor Leon Meurin, S.J., Archbishop, Bishop of Port-Louis, shows us in his so very richly authenticated work, “Clarification of Freemasonry”, with crushing authority that the Jews are the founders, organisers and leaders of Freemasonry, which they use to attain world domination, in order to destroy the Holy Catholic Church and the remaining existing religions. Among the attested literature that he presents in this connection appear several quotations, which we mention in the following:

“The First Highest Masonic Council was, as we have already said, formed on 31st May 1801 in Charleston, 33 degrees northern latitude, under the chairmanship of the Jew Isaac Long, who was made inspector general by the Jew Moses Cohen, and who had received his degree from Hyes, from Franken, and the Jew Morin.”1

“The Jews were thus the founders of the First Great Council, which was to transform itself into the middlepoint of world Freemasonry. And they placed it in America, in a city chosen exactly on the 33rd parallel, Northern Latitude. The successive head has lived in Charleston since 1801. In the year 1889 this was Albert Pike, whom we have already mentioned in his circular letter of 14th July 1889, the famed anniversary and tercentenary.

“He assumes the title of each of the 33 degrees and in addition adds the following:

“Most mighty and all-highest Commander, Grand Master of the Supreme Council of Charleston, first highest council of the globe, Grand Master and preserver of the holy Palladium, all-highest Pontifex of world Freemasonry.
“With these pompous titles he published his circular letter in the one and thirtieth year of his Pontificate, supported by ten high dignitaries, most enlightened and most sublime brothers, rulers, grand-general inspectors, chosen magi, who form the most illustrious grand collegium of ancient Freemasons, the council of the chosen troops and of the holy battalion of the Order.”2

“The circular letter enumerates the 23 highest councils, which previously were directly ‘created’ through that of Charleston and are dispersed over the entire world. Then it lists the hundred Grand Orients and Grand Lodges of all rites which are connected with the highest Council of Charleston as the all-highest power of Freemasonry; the exclusive rite of the Jews. For example, the Grand Orient of France, the General Council of the Rite of Mizraim, the Grand Council of the Freemason Oddfellows, etc. From the preceding we must conclude that Freemasonry all over the world is one in countless forms, however, under the supreme direction of the all-highest Pontifex of Charleston.”3

JEWISH ORIGIN

“The rites and symbols of the Freemasons and of the other secret sects remind one constantly of the ‘Cabbala’ (secret Jewish mystique) and Jewry: The reconstruction of the temple of Solomon, the star of David, the seal of Solomon; the names of the different degrees, as for example, Knight Kadosh. ‘Kadosh’ means in Hebrew ‘holy’; Prince of Jerusalem, Prince of Lebanon, Knight of the serpent of Airain, etc. And does not the prayer of the English Freemasons, which was recorded in an assembly held in 1663, recall Judaism in a most clear manner?”4

“Finally the Scottish Freemasons made use of the Jewish calendar; for example, a book, which was written by the American Freemason Pike5 in the year 1881, is dated ‘Anno mundi 5641’. At present this calendar is retained only in the highest degrees, while the Freemasons in general add four thousand years to the Christian calendar, and not 3760 like the Jews.”6

The clever Rabbi Benamozegh writes the following:

“Those who wish to make the effort to examine the questions of relations between Jewry and philosophic Freemasonry, between Theosophy and the secret doctrines in general, will lose a little of their arrogant despisal of the Cabbala (Jewish Mysticism). They will cease to smile contemptuously at the idea that the ‘Cabbalistic’ theology perhaps has to fulfil a mission in the religious re-shaping of the future.” 7

“Who are the true leaders of Freemasonry? This is one of the secrets of the sect, which is very carefully kept; but one can assert that Freemasonry all over the world develops in agreement with one and the same plan; that its methods are always and in all parts identical, and that the aims pursued are permanently the same. This occasioned us to believe that a uniform middlepoint exists, which directs all movements of the Sect.

“Further on we will touch upon this question; however, here let us recall that ‘Carta de Colonia’, dated 24th June 1935, speaks of a director of Freemasonry: the Grandmaster or patriarch, who, although known by very few brothers, exists in reality; and Gougenot des Mousseaux points out that this choice of the Order, these real directors, whom only a very few initiates know, exercise their function in useful and secret dependency upon the Israelite Cabbalists (Mystics)’ and that the true directors of Freemasonry are the friends, the helpers and the vassals of the Jew to whom they do homage as their highest Lords. The same judgment is shared by Eckert, Drumont, Deschamps, Msgr. Jouin, Lambelin and other savants of Freemasonic and Jewish questions”.8

Let us leave the dogmatic teachings of the Freemasons and Jewry to one side and let us examine the alliances between both from the purely practical and realistic standpoint. If one proceeds logically, one cannot avoid drawing the conclusion which is formulated by L. de Poncins in “The Secret Powers Behind Revolution.”

“The manifoldness of Freemasonry, its permanence, the inalterability of its goals, which are completely explicable since it is a question of a Jewish creation to serve the Jewish interests, would be completely incomprehensible if its origin were of a Christian nature.

“Even the purpose in itself of Freemasonry, namely the destruction of Christian civilisation, reveals to us the Jew, for only the Jew can draw advantage from it, and the Jew alone is inspired by a sufficiently violent hatred towards Christianity to create such an organisation.”

“Freemasonry”, continues de Poncins, “is a secret society and is directed by an international minority. It has sworn Christianity an irreconcilable hatred. These three characteristics are exactly the same as those that describe Jewry and represent the proof that the Jews are the leading element of the lodges.”9

Already in 1867 the “permanent international league for peace” came into existence, and its secretary, the Jew Passy, outlined the ideas of a court of justice, to settle all conflicts between the nations without appeal.10

The newspaper “The Israelite Archive” dreamed of a similar court of justice in the year 1864. “Is it not natural and necessary” – wrote a certain Levy Bing-“that as soon as possible we see erected an additional court of justice, and in fact a highest court of justice, to whom the great open conflicts and the quarrels among the nations are submitted, which in the last instance passes judgment, and whose last word is given powerful weight? This will be the word of God, which is uttered by his first-born sons (the Hebrews), and before which the general rest of mankind will bow in respect before our brothers, our friends and our pupils.”11

These are the dreams of Israel. As always they accord with those of Freemasonry. The “Freemasons calendar” writes:

“When the Republic has been set up in the whole of old Europe, Israel, as ruler will rule over this old Europe.”12

At the world congress of Jewish youth, which was held on 4th August 1928, H. Justin Godard announced that the Jews were the firmest supporters of the League of Nations, which had to thank its existence to them.”13 The Jew Cassin gave more exact information:

“The rebirth of Zionism is the work of the League of Nations. Through it the Jewish organisations place themselves as defenders of the League of Nations, and therefore Geneva swarms with representatives of the ‘chosen people’.”14

The most venerable Cardinal Jose Maria Caro R., Archbishop of Santiago and Primate of Chile, also proves, in his authoritatively supported work “The Secret of Freemasonry”, that it is the Jews who direct this sect, in order to rule the world and to destroy Holy Church. In connection with its origin he affirms:

“The Freemasonic rite clearly betrays its Jewish origin: the symbols, which begin with the Bible itself; the coat of arms upon which an attempt is made to explain the different forms of the Cherubim described by Ezekiel in his second poem, an ox, a man, a lion and an eagle; the two pillars of the Freemasonic temple in remembrance of the temple of Solomon; the rebuilding of the temple which is the work of the Freemasons, etc. The reading matter and the handbooks, which in greater part are taken from the Bible, they turn almost always towards Freemasonic taste, especially the legend of Hiram, which plays an important role in the Freemasonic rite.

“The customary words and expressions, like the names of the pillars Boaz’ and Jachin’, the words of knowledge and of admittance: Tubalcain, Shibboleth, Giblim or Moahon, Nekum or Nekam, Abibalc, etc; the the importance, which is allotted to numbers, a matter very original to the Cabbala, all these are further proofs of the Cabbalistic influence on Freemasonry.

“Finally the facts, the rule of terror, the outbreak of Satanic hatred against the Church, against our Lord Jesus Christ, the terrible blasphemies against God that the revolutionary Freemasons perpetrated in France, are nothing more than the expression and the fulfilment of the Cabbalistic and secret sects, which already for several centuries have fought secretly against Christianity. What the Jewish Bolshevists to greatest part do in Russia against Christianity, is only another edition of the deeds of the Freemasons in the French revolution. The executioners are others; however, the doctrine that motivates and empowers them and the supreme leadership are the same.”15

Abuses of Conscience by the Pope

The following is taken from silere non possum. It has been translated into english using an online tool & edited slightly for clarity.

The Fraternity of Communion and Liberation for years, he has been experiencing a true and silent abuse by the Dicastery for the Laity, the Family and Life.

These are those offices of the Roman Curia which are led by Kevin Joseph Farrell, who lived in the same house as the abuser, Theodore Edgar McCarrick. Over the years, while McCarrick has been accused of performing the worst actions in his home, Farrel has been elevated to cardinal dignity and has been entrusted with crucial roles of the Roman Curia.

At the moment he is the cardinal who plays all the roles where the most reliable people are placed: Prefect of the Dicastery for the Laity, Family and Life, Camerlengo of the Holy Roman Church, President of the Commission of Confidential Matters, President of the Investment Committee and President of the Court of Cassation (Supreme Court) of the Vatican City State. It is good to remember that Kevin Joseph Farrell has never obtained any title in canon law or in economics. 

Together with Farrell, as regards the Fraternity of Communion and Liberation, the ambitious Linda Ghisoni was in the front row, known in the sacred rooms for her desire for power. 

Cardinal Kevin Farrell

To friends, todo, todo, todo

According to the motto of a great mentor of Francis, “Al amigo, todo; the Dicasteries of the Roman Curia and also the dioceses in the world govern the enemigo, for whom there is ni justicia ”. 

As has been pointed out several times, law is being trampled on in the Church today and this is a serious problem. According to what is happening, it is now necessary to start questioning the States that recognize the judgments of the courts of the Holy See, of the diocesan courts and also of the Vatican City State. In fact, if a norm states something, the Pope always acts ‘notwithstanding’ that same text. 

When the Apostolic Constitution Praedicate Evangelium was issued,  everyone wondered how some rules would apply. Article 17, for example, provides: “§ 4. As a rule, after five years, clerical officers and members of Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life who have served in curial institutions and offices return to pastoral care in their Diocese / Eparchy, or in Institutes or Societies of belonging. If the Superiors of the Roman Curia deem it appropriate, the service can be extended for another period of five years “. 

Cardinal Juan Luis Cipriani Thorne

In Santa Marta someone mumbled: “The extensions will be different and will always concern the most faithful”. It is the practice of this pontificate. Cardinal Cypriani is accused? He is guilty beyond reasonable doubt. The process? Never celebrated. The evidence? Never presented. The penalty? Already applied. (Cipriani admits he is under restrictions for abuse: see here.)

Oscar Zanchetta have you been sentenced with evidence and public trial?

“Yes, but he is the victim of a conspiracy,” the Pope said to his faithful collaborators. This is today’s modus operandi; the Argentine dictators to whom Francesco is inspired were fresh air in comparison. 

Communion and Liberation

This system is also being repeated with regard to movements and associations, religious orders, societies of apostolic life, etc …These are real abuses of power by the ecclesiastical authority against the various realities. The fact that this happens in a historical moment such as the present one in which there are real attempts to eradicate the numerous abuses of conscience that are perpetrated against the weakest in the various communities around the world, is something very serious. 

In the Church what happened in Caltanissetta is happening with the story, well known in Italy, which involved the judge Silvana Saguto. There, a system called “Mafia of Antimafia” was discovered, that is, the mafia was fought with an equally mafioso system. Another mafia, in essence. The same happens in the Church. Abuse is committed in the name of the fight against abuse. By abusing consciences and their power, it is claimed abuse of power is eliminated.

On June 3, 2021 the Dicastery signed a very important decree that it tries, not always successfully, to eliminate the ‘eternal mandates’ of the superiors of these ecclesial realities. In Article 1 it is written: “The mandates in the central government body at an international level can have a maximum duration of five years each “. Just as we will legislate about a year later on the Roman Curia. 

In recent years, unfortunately, serious abuses of power have been committed in Communion and Liberation which have led most of the members of the Fraternity to close in a silence typical of those realities where abuse of conscience is committed. In his book “Crushing the Soul,” Father Dysmas De Lassus explains these dynamics perfectly. What has been repeated several times to Memores Domini, as regards their reality, and to the members of the Fraternity of Communion and Liberation, as regards their reality, was precisely to keep silent in obedience to the Pope.

Obedience to the Pope has become, since 2013, the balance on which to measure everything and everyone. Those who are victims of this system, however, unfortunately do not have the tools to understand that these are abuses of power, because those who act according to transparency and justice do not need to impose any silence because, even if information comes out, this should not worry them. 

The Minister General of the Carthusian Order writes:

To this question is added another: what is the extension of the secret? If it extends to every person who comes from outside – family, friends, confessor etc. -, are you not setting up an isolation practice that has nothing to do with preserving inner life? If the discipline of secrecy is part of a pyramidal structure and a unique thought, a good part of the elements of a sectarian drift are put in place.

In fact, in a framework of this kind, members of the community who may have doubts no longer have the opportunity to compare them with someone else, neither inside, due to the pyramidal structure, nor outside, because of the secret.

Perhaps we are not trying to ward off any risk of dissent, what makes every totalitarian power? In practice, this type of drift translates into the interdiction to have external exchanges with people, in particular with the family or confessors, on everything related to community life and the personal life of the religious.

In the impossibility of explaining the real reasons for this prohibition, other more acceptable reasons are presented: the need to wash dirty clothes in the family or to keep family secrets, because “they would not understand us” or, also, the somewhat enigmatic word of Jesus: “Do not give holy things to dogs and do not throw your pearls in front of the pigs.” (Mt 7,6). 

These precautions may have some good motivation, which makes it more difficult to discern the threshold beyond which a common sense recommendation becomes a gag. A little bit of discretion on the small defects of the brothers or sisters and on the small gossip of the community doesn’t hurt. But when it comes to a profound unease experienced by the religious or religious, preventing him from talking to external people means forcing him to close himself in his malaise and refuse him any chance of finding the light. 

Prosperi reconfirmed

In spite of the decree mentioned above, Pope Francis on 1st February 2025 signed a letter prepared by Linda Ghisoni and Kevin Farrell. Although Article 3 provided that “All members pleno iure have an active, direct or indirect voice in the establishment of the bodies that elect the central government body at an international level”, the Pope is not interested in what he approved in 2021. 

In the letter he writes: “I arrange that you, Professor Prosperi, remain at the helm of the Fraternity as President for a further five-year term, starting from the natural expiry of the mandate currently underway ». 

But how, the mandates were not five years old? «This is, therefore, a very delicate and, of course, of great ferment in CL’s life for the achievement of that renewed and fundamental ecclesial maturity so much desired, which entails the full and faithful enhancement of his charism, remaining firmly anchored in the Church universal of Our Lord Jesus Christ » continues Francesco. 

For years, therefore, the narration is the same: «CL members are idiots, they cannot elect and decide who should be at their helm, so we do it ». 

This speech is the same that is re-proposed regarding those nations that elect candidates from the political party opposite to those related to the press and therefore the narrative is: “Brogli (electoral fraud) in the elections”. Francis acts in all respects in this way, according to those canons and practices which are typical of a certain political orientation.

In reality, this way of acting – however paternalistic and abusing – hides the flaws of a Dicastery that for years has tried in every way to manipulate the consciences of those belonging to this reality. Joseph Kevin Farrel and Linda Ghisoni have multiple times – we have audio recordings -slandered and defamed Fr Julián Carrón attributing to him actions or intentions that in reality have never even gone through his head. With this excuse, just as happened with Cardinal Cipriani and many others, the Spanish priest was ousted and sent out of government. Restrictions were even imposed on him for which Carrón himself went several times to the Pope to ask for explanations. 

Recently Cardinal Fernandez reported that work is being done on legislating spiritual and conscientious abuse. Welcome but if the application of these rules is despotic and based on personal sentiment or political interests, perhaps it is not appropriate to add elements to those – very numerous – already present. 

From vice to president

In 2021 Davide Prosperi had already been identified by the Dicastery as the right person to succeed Fr Julián Carrón. We must also reflect on these movements and ask ourselves what is happening.

The Holy Pontiff said: “You have to be at the top to be able to see and judge”. Far from feeling “top”, however, we try to climb the high summit in order to have an “overall vision” of what happens in the Catholic Church. It is emblematic that many of those realities that undergo, in fact, a commission, see the “vice” go to the helm of the community.

It happened in Community of Bose, which we talked about for a long time and highlighted the serious abuses committed by Pietro Parolin, Amedeo Cencini, Pietro Parolari and Anna Deodato,and it has happened in many other realities. 

Also in Communion and Liberation. Prosperi, who had been appointed by Carrón as his deputy in 2011, was brought to the pedestal. In 2021 he wrote“I have accepted the assignment that I hold as an act of obedience to the Holy Father and I wish to carry it out as a service to the life of our company and of each of you. As far as possible, I would like to listen to everyone and give space to the initiative of anyone who wants to collaborate. The witness task that God entrusts to us is great and, as Fr Julián reminded us in his last letter, at this particular moment everyone is called to take responsibility for the charism. I ask each of you to help me bring mine with an advance of trust and esteem ».

An internal source reported to Silere Non Possum:

They don’t actually listen to anyone. In the meetings it is often reiterated how one must “obey”, “answer the requests of the Holy See”.

Prosperi usually says: “The Pope wants”, “The Pope asked me”. This happens every time we also find ourselves in meetings with the leaders of the Dicastery. Everyone puts their ambitions in the Pope’s mouth and sells them as “the Pope’s will”. Francesco, however, is aware of it?

Do you know CL? Are you aware of what has been happening here for years? We are completely divided. They have created division and are aware that a reality like ours is difficult to “manipulate” because we almost all have a certain degree of education, important positions and we are also engaged in different areas of institutions. At the same time though, they manage to manipulate consciences with a few simple words “obedience to the Pope”.

We are all aware that in reality the Pope does not know much and the purpose of the Dicastery is to control a reality that has always been viewed with distrust. Prosperi is the right person to do it because, in the name of a candy that is currently the one of power, he is willing to sell the people who are part of it and also the movement, the charisma, the fraternity.

I was present on several occasions when the Gius [Don Luigi Giussani ed.] met Pope John Paul II. This was not what both wanted. We recently published a podcast in which it is possible to listen to Fr Giussani’s living voice speak of Jesus. Listen to him and you will understand why we followed him. We followed him because he spoke to us of Jesus in that way and made us fall in love with him. 

The Eleusinian School

The Eleusinian School was the most popular of the many so-called ‘mystery religions’ of ancient times. Like all mystery religions, Eleusinianism was based on rites of initiation which led to ‘transformation’, through a mystical ‘birth’ and ‘rebirth’.

This principle of transformation is commonly found among today’s secret societies and cults such as Illuminism.

The Mystery Religions

As Manly P. Hall points out, the ancient mystery religions “were branches from one philosophic tree [which,] with its roots in heaven and its branches on the earth…” 1

This idea could be seen through the Christian lens of truth and grace having their source in God, yet is an interesting turn of phrase, as it also exemplifies the occult principle of ‘as above, so below‘. This principle falsely posits that what is conceived in the spiritual realm is manifested on earth.

As Christians, we believe that the eternal Wisdom of the Holy Trinity guides all activities on the earth: world events are only the result of God’s Permissive Will or of His Direct Will, but they are always the Will of God alone. [If a satanist or witch ‘manifests’ an outcome via a ritual or spell, then God has merely allowed a demon to fulfil the request in order to honour that person’s free will. We hope that at some point in the unfortunate person’s life, he or she will recognise the demonic power to which they are enslaved and repent.]

‘Eleusinian Mysteries’, Dirck van Baburen, 17th century.

The Eleusinian School

The Eleusinian School was widespread, moving from Greece to Rome and eventually to Britain. Over time, it absorbed some of the smaller mystery cults.

Every year, (some rituals were performed only every five years) its rituals were performed in the city of Eleusis, near Athens, in honour of the goddess, Ceres, and her daughter Persephone.

Ceres and Persephone are the subjects of a famous Greek myth in which Persephone is kidnapped by Hades, god of the Underworld. With assistance from the sun-god, Helion, Ceres succeeds in rescuing Persephone for half the year. This myth came about as an explanation of the seasons; during winter, vegetation ‘dies’ while Persephone visits the Underworld.

IMAGE: Fragments of the Great Eleusinian Relief with Demeter (left), Persephone (right) and Triptolemos (centre). C 450 BC.

Initiates were sworn to secrecy regarding the precise nature of the rituals, however, we do know that the ceremony would begin in Athens with ritual washing, followed by animal sacrifice. On the fourth day of the ten-day festival, participants processed from Athens to Eleusis – a 22km journey. Finally initiates spend several days together inside a temple, undergoing some kind of traumatic ritual which was designed to produce the ‘transformation.’

The intense ritual, wherein candidates were symbolically led on a journey through Hades,2 was led by priests and priestesses while former initiates watched on. It involved activities designed to alter the consciousness of initiates, probably involving emotive music and dancing, and possibly involving hallucinogens.3

Eleusinian Philosophy

At the heart of Eleusinianism is the belief that man’s state after death changes little unless he manages to access ‘secret wisdom’ during his time on earth. “If he does not rise above ignorance during his sojourn here, man goes at death into eternity to wander about forever, making the same mistakes which he made here.”4

Interestingly, the Church Father, Hippolytus, mentioned the Eleusinians in his classic work, the Refutation of all Heresies. Hippolytus draws attention to one part of the secret rituals, the moment when ‘an ear of corn is reaped in silence’. 5 Likewise, Clement of Alexandria warned of the cult in the 3rd century.6

Plato, in his Republic, is thought to contain a reference to the ‘rebirth’ contained in Eleusinian doctrine, and Carl Jung is said to have used the Eleusinian mysteries as a basis for some of his work, particularly his notion of initiation and rebirth as a metaphor for psychoanalysis.7

Frederic Leighton, “The Return of Persephone” (1891). Persephone’s ascent from the Underworld symbolises the initiate’s ‘rebirth’ and lasting transformation.

Eleusinian Symbolism

The following text is taken from Manly P. Hall’s The Secret Teachings of All Ages. It is instructive because it sheds light on the importance placed on the various materials and surfaces with which occultists who are inspired by the Eleusinians surround themselves.

“God being a luminous principle, residing in the midst of the most subtile fire, he remains for ever invisible to the eyes of those who do not elevate themselves above material life: on this account, the sight of transparent bodies, such as crystal, Parian marble, and even ivory, recalls the idea of divine light; as the sight of gold excites an idea of its purity, for gold cannot he sullied. Some have thought by a black stone was signified the invisibility of the divine essence. To express supreme reason, the Divinity was represented under the human form–and beautiful, for God is the source of beauty; of different ages, and in various attitudes, sitting or upright; of one or the other sex, as a virgin or a young man, a husband or a bride, that all the shades and gradations might be marked. Every thing luminous was subsequently attributed to the gods; the sphere, and all that is spherical, to the universe, to the sun and the moon–sometimes to Fortune and to Hope. The circle, and all circular figures, to eternity–to the celestial movements; to the circles and zones of the heavens. The section of circles, to the phases of the moon; and pyramids and obelisks, to the igneous principle, and through that to the gods of Heaven. A cone expresses the sun, a cylinder the earth; the phallus and triangle (a symbol of the matrix) designate generation.”

Expressed in table form, we have

MATERIAL

crystal, marble, ivory

gold

black stone

a beautiful human form (representing God)

anything luminous

anything spherical

anything circular

sections of circles

pyramids and obelisks

cone

cylinder

triangle, phallus

MEANING

divine light

purity

invisibility of the divine essence

supreme reason

the gods

the universe, sun, moon, Fortune, Hope

eternity or the celestial movements

phases of the moon

the Igneous principle/the gods of Heaven

sun

earth

regeneration

We can see that the meaning attributed to some of these symbols differs from that given by other schools, however this list could help when interpreting the communications and loyalties of occultists.

Conclusion

Having briefly examined the ancient cult of the Eleusinians, we can see its influence on modern-day Gnostic cults.

In fact, some occultists posit that when Christianity took hold and paganism fell into disrepute, the Eleusinians went underground and became the basis for many esoteric religions such as Hermeticism, Kabbalah, Freemasonry, Gnosticism, Neo-Platonism and Alchemy,8 all of which are centred on the theme of spiritual transformation via the attainment of ‘secret’ knowledge.

Additionally, Ceres is the equivalent of Demeter (Rome) and Isis (Egypt), so with goddess worship becoming increasing popular in our post-Christian world, the beliefs and symbolism of the Eleusinians hold extra relevance for us.

Weekly News

New article for you

Dear friend,

This week’s article takes a look at a Brisbane parish which has committed itself to including as much indigenous paganism as possible into its its worship.

This is of course, only a symptom of the entire programme of the Archdiocese of Brisbane. It really would be difficult to offend Our Lord more than the programme of Mark Coleridge. I’ve included an older article about what he got up to during the scamdemic to remind you how evil this man really is.

You may remember last week’s article on the Cosmic Embrace (click here if you didn’t read it). A friend pointed out that there was another possible meaning to that artwork: he thought it might be a reference to mystical (sacred) sexual encounters, as there is a book by the same name. Knowing what happens in the Vatican and the proclivities of men like Cardinal ‘Heal-Me-With-Your-Mouth’ Fernandez, he just might be correct.

By the way, I’ve also updated the Luminaries document – it’s still not complete, but I’ve re-edited the first few pages. Download if you’re someone who likes to keep hardcopies on hand.

Until next time,

AC.

“We wish it to be your rule first of all to tear away the mask from Freemasonry, and to let it be seen as it really is.” – Leo XIII, HUMANUM GENUS.

Bishop’s Blueprint for Pagan Worship

A reader has supplied some concerning information about a parish in his state of Queensland: St. James at Coorpooroo in Brisbane. St. James has published its ‘Reconciliation Action Plan’ to implement indigenous ‘dialogue and accompaniment’ and includes adding Welcome to Country ceremonies to parish events as well as adding pagan elements into Masses throughout the year. Worst of all, the plan is based on guidelines that come straight from the notorious Archdiocese of Brisbane, meaning that similar plans are being rolled out all across Queensland.

St. James published its plan online and the document is reproduced below. As you can see, it involves lots of bureaucratic jargon (e.g. ‘stakeholders’, ‘actions’ and ‘deliverables’) and woke appeasement (‘reconciliation’, ‘truth-telling’ and ‘listening’) but mentions absolutely nothing about evangelising or Catholic formation.

Catholics are expected to ‘learn’ from indigenous Australians and put up with pagan additions to their Masses while celebrating imaginary indigenous feast days. St. James plans to hold events to mark at least four of the following victimhood days: Sorry Day, Close the Gap, Coming of the Light, Apology Day and Mabo Day.

Also mentioned is the anti-Christian Statement from the Heart document: four weekly sessions are planned to discuss this Marxist-inspired hymn to Gaia.

Cui Bono?

As is to be expected, local, urbanised Aboriginals will benefit financially from the parish programme: multiple plaques to honour the Indigenous have been purchased by the parish; Welcome to Country ceremonies are planned (presumably led by paid activists); indigenous businesses will be prioritised by the parish. There is no mention of assistance going to those indigenous Australians living in rural areas who are truly victims of poverty, often surrounded by violence, addictions and sexual abuse.

The Plan was officially launched during Sunday Mass on February 9th. The Mass was preceded by a pagan smoking ceremony, and the Entrance Procession was accompanied by music from the indigenous instrument, the didgeridoo, as well as ‘cultural significant statements, artwork and symbols’. This means that pagan symbols and representations of mythological beings were brought into the church during the Liturgy.

Reconciliation

The entire ‘Reconciliation’ movement is based on the lie that white settlers stole the land of Australia from deeply spiritual natives, violently imposing their imperialistic culture and faith on them. This Noble Savage myth is perpetuated in schoolrooms and universities around the country and is unfortunately promulgated by many of our bishops as well.

Of course, when the British arrived in Australia with their ships, tools, seeds, uniforms and Christian (albeit Protestant) faith, the indigenous inhabitants still running around in animal skins, eating each other and worshipping lizards. Yet, our hapless prelates insist that they have something to teach Catholics about spirituality and culture.

Of course, at the root of all this talk of reconciliation and dialogue is the complete absence of faith among the majority of the Australian hierarchy. They simply do not believe in the tenets of the Catholic Faith, especially not, it would seem, in the necessity of repentance and sanctification through the sacrifice of Our Lord Jesus Christ. They are simply well-paid bureaucrats who exploit the prestige of Catholicism while subverting its truths.

One leading proponent of this error is Archbishop Mark Coleridge of Brisbane (who is, by the way, a friend of the disgraceful Marco Rupnik.)

Coleridge and Rupnik.

Archbishop Coleridge published the ‘Reconciliation’ roadmap (see below) on the Archdiocesan website, along with an expression of gratitude for the contributions made by indigenous Australians.

The Archdiocese of Brisbane acknowledges the Traditional Custodians who have walked and cared for this land for thousands of years and their descendants who maintain their spiritual connection and traditions. We thank them for their continual cultural and spiritual connection to Country as expressed through their history, music, language, songs, art and dance.

Pagan Practices

Smoking ceremonies have been mentioned on this site many times: they are rituals common to many different pagan traditions, including American Indians and Australian Aboriginals. The smoke is meant to ‘cleanse’ an area from ‘evil spirits’.

These rituals are unfortunately very common at Australian Novus Ordo parishes and are usually performed prior to Mass, outside the church building. The Archbishop of Melbourne infamously allowed one to be performed at the main altar of St. Patrick’s Cathedral in 2021 during Mass.

The Archdiocesan guidelines mention other occult practices like ‘deep listening’ – a kind of meditation, an emptying of the mind; and worship of mother-earth. Yet, somehow Catholics are expected to believe that these are merely cultural and not spiritual practices.

Prior to the RAP launch at St. James’, the friend who sent me this information emailed the Archdiocese of Brisbane, expressing his disapproval for the proposed smoking ceremony. He received this reply from an anonymous Archdiocesan employee:

“Please be advised the invitation states that the smoking ceremony on this occasion is to ‘culturally bless the launch of the RAP’ and thus is not intended as a spiritual action.”

Hmmm, sure. Just like this blessing of water, as found among the St. James materials isn’t intended to be spiritual: “Each time we perform these ancient rituals of a water blessing we connect our spirit with those of our ancestors –their spirit is reborn and becomes strong within us around us.

Are we expected to believe that this “Presentation of Gifts at Offertory Procession – Mother Earth” is also not intended to be spiritual?: “We enjoy the physical and spiritual connections to Mother Earth, waters and environment. The physical and spiritual connections are the necessary elements of our life’s energy.”

The saddest part of this is that the average pew-sitter thinks that syncretism is perfectly acceptable and that it is Tradition which poses the greatest threat to their faith.

New article for you

Dear friend,

This week we take a look at the backdrop for Papa Bergoglio’s recent meeting with leaders of a pro-abortion organisation – it’s a huge tapestry of a ‘Cosmic Hug’ which has occult overtones. You can read about that here.

Also this article on Masonic music at the re-opening of Notre Dame Cathedral is very revealing and (in case you missed it) this confirms some of the suspicions I wrote about here not long ago: https://traditioninaction.org/HotTopics/c056_Org.htm

Until next time,

AC.
