Email: Dark Knight of the Templars (24.9.2020)

No one resisted and the general atmosphere was one of ‘stunned’ bemusement. This is when the torturing began. Although there is no objective evidence that any of the allegations are ‘true’ (including the nonsense of worshipping Mary Magdalene), when Pope Clement V finally returned, he was provided with thousands of coerced confessions and literally ’threatened’ into agreeing with King Philip’s actions and decisions. As a consequence, the Pope dissolved the Templars in 1312 – but by this time thousands had been tortured or starved to death in French prisons, or publicly executed. Grand Master Jacques de Molay was burned at the stake in 1314 for daring to ‘retract’ his confession and stating that the Order was ‘pure’. He added that the devil moved within the Catholic Church and was ruling France!   

Entering the Lion’s Den of Reactionary Religion! (12.3.2020)

Understanding ‘how’ the fascistic Church functions should not prevent the objective study of theology and Church history. A balance must be developed where Church fascism is a) acknowledged and b) thoroughly rejected, whilst the more interesting aspects of Church history are analysed ad understood. It is ironic that the fascist leaning of a popular Church would appear to contradict the founder of Church itself.
