Read the article by C.B on the Italian mystic, and whilst I found much of what the mystic said eloquent and very true, I am left forever incredulous at how many of the christian contributors fail to see the blatant hypocrisy and contradictions in their own belief system. We are told to avoid worshipping idols as they are demons - then please explain the idol worhsipping of jesus on the cross in every church???? How can an omnipotent god actually die?????????????? So man killed god???? then Nietzesche was right, god is dead!!! And if god died on the cross, who was ruling the universe for the 3 days in god's absence?????????????

Henry, whilst I respect your writers contributions and that your site is geared more toward a judeo-christian (an oxymoron) slant, perhaps it would be only fair to include an article exposing the true pagan/masonic roots of trinitarian christianity. It seems much of what the christians preach, whilst well meaning, is in my belief, all in vain -if they are unwilling to consider the sin of associating others in partnership with God.

A discussion on this would be good for your site.

The problem for a (true) mystic in a godless world is that inspiration offered by the mystic in
words and/or example can only go so far to change the hearts of men, for to do so can only
be accomplished by each individuals personal relationship to God, who sadly are unable to
tell the difference between God and Satan, both of whom dwell within the minds of each one.

To distinguish the difference is the foundation of mysticism, and no doubt the RCC created
their own mystics to confuse people, whilst a true mystic would have nothing to do with the
churches, let alone a church with them; so, the relationship between the mystic and church
is often distorted to mislead others, and obviously happens all the time, Mystics are not the problem, and are simply ordinary people like everyone else, albeit extraordinary experiences.

First, let me say how much I appreciate it that anyone would give credit to a Christian source today, let alone a Catholic one. I mention this to you so someone can look further into The Poem Of The Man-God. Some five to eight years ago, I read an article about this piece in The Wanderer. Their advice was to stay away from it.

We may live in a godless age, but not an irreligious one. The problem seems to me that everyone's trying to be his own "pope." Just as Marx, Darwin, Freud and Nietzsche were the intellectual founders of the 20th Century, in the same way I think that Carl Jung, Madame Blavatsky, Alice Bailey and Aleistair Crowley were the intellectual founders of its so-called religion, its Devil-worship, namely, metaphysics and the New Age. As far as I can fathom it, they seem to be more masters of form and mood and attitude OVER AND ABOVE being masters of content. Be that as it may, I would urge everyone to know and study these "alleged" human beings and think of them for what they were: satanic founding monsters!

The lesson of it is this: Do not worship idols. Behind every idol hides a demon. A demon may actually fear a true mystic---like a fisherman fears the shark he's out to catch. And he'll use the mystic as bait to fish for---US!!!

Thanks for presenting C. B.'s article. Absolutely amazing.

When I first started reading your articles a handful of years ago, I didn't like them because of your views on feminism, etc. After initial resistance, I finally began to understand what you were saying. Although I don't have your skills or courage, I'm on your wavelength at present time. I go to your website from Rense, and when I am pursuing the articles on his site, the first link I almost always click is yours, even though there's no indication of the author in the link.

In this case, C. B.'s statement: "A few years ago, when I realized that the conspiratorial view of history is true, a deep sense of helplessness came over me" is the same is emotion I also experienced a couple of years ago.

After calming down and seeking our creator, which is in my control, I came to the same conclusion expressed by C. B.:

"If the dark forces want to create an atmosphere of fear and hopelessness, why not counter by dwelling on "whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable -if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about these things." Phil 4:8

I hadn't heard of Maria Valtorta, there have been hundreds of such people but they only become known to those who are in a place to appreciate the examples of their lives.

Her book remains controversial. Pope Pius XII read it and found no heresy in it, so said it should be published for it's literary value whether it were really inspired or not. Please be careful about that world 'channeling'. Channeling is different. Anyone that uses a technique of 'emptying the mind' to be a 'channel' for anything is demon bait. Maria Valtorta didn't set out wanting to be God's stenographer. She was injured and enduring chronic suffering. She read the little book of a young 19th century nun known as St. Thérèse of Lisieux (pronouced St. Terez). I have my own story of my own from reading the young Carmelite's memoir,'The Story of a Soul'.
St.Thérèse also suffered for years and died of tuberculosis at age twenty four. She practiced offering up her suffering in sacrificial penance for the sins of humanity. She in turn had been inspired by reading "The Imitation of Christ" (De imitatione Christi) by Thomas à Kempis, a 15th century Christian masterpiece.

But I digress. The point is that Maria Valtorta understood and did the same with her suffering. In the language of pre-Vatican II "offered herself as victim to the merciful Love." I read she also took the vows of chastity (celibacy) and poverty, which tells me she was the old church called a 'hermit'. A religious person who for one reason or another couldn't join holy order.

Her opus, Poem of the Man God, wasn't published when Pius XII died, and look who put it on the "Forbidden Books" index - John XXIII. (For non-Catholics or lazy Catholesques, it was this Pope that represents the clean break with the past and the secularization of the RC called Vatican II. ) John XXIII was a puppet of Illuminati. The Novus Ordo pulled the plug on the way of thinking that this article was about. Pius XII - the Pope of WWII - wasn't a great Pope in a critical era of history that called for great Pope who could have out foxed Mussolini and Hitler. But that's another story.

Then and now, few people discover the profound things people like Maria Valtorta and St. Thérèse of Lisieux found out about - unless they too are struck with life-shortening illness.
