"Ipaglaban mo nang puspusan ang pananampalataya. Panghawakan mong mabuti ang buhay na walang hanggan, dahil diyan ka tinawag ng Diyos nang ipahayag mo sa harap ng maraming saksi ang iyong pananalig kay Cristo." I Tim. 6:12

Catholic Church, begins in its near end!


Im searching about the "hostage-taking" here in the Philippines, happened just days ago that brought to us shame from other countries.

But as i kept on searching, i found a shocking and revealing story, that the Catholic Church is really (not just my opinion), but looking forward to its near END!

How can i say this?

Ive been on Anthony Y's blog, and an article named The Catholic Church: On the brink of Collapse.

Most of our Catholic Defenders/Priests and catholics always say that the Iglesia ni Cristo (Church of Christ) is going down and will be vanished. Look what religion really in this scenario.

REALITY: As many didnt know, The Catholic Church in other countries suffers bankruptcy and decline of member's attendance.

I will not say words anymore, ill just post what is in that article, here it is:

You guys probably didn’t know this, most especially those who are in Asian countries; where Catholicism still holds much influence. You may not have heard it on the media, well that’s because the church don’t want the story to spread, but I’m going to leak it anyway.
Most of us here on the catholic dominated country may not have felt this, but on Europe, and some other Western countries, believe it or not, the Catholic Church is steadily eroding.
For those who don’t believe me… read these:
Europe, the Collapse of the Catholic Church — Mass Attendance at Cities Like Paris Down to 5%
The Beginning of the End of the Catholic Church
OK, now that you’ve read them, you may call me a liar.

Reason of apparent collapse
Unfortunately, there is not only one, but numerous reasons why it is on the brink of collapse. Here are some of the reasons…

Lies and deceit
I know you guys hate me say this, but when I took a research on the history of the Catholic Church, I discovered that the church was lying and deceiving the ignorant and the gullible. Maybe not most of the time, but the fact that they lied and deceived people just to gain popularity is a sign of fraud.
One of their frauds perhaps was in the case of incorruptible bodies (saints whose bodies remained intact for years, decades, and centuries even after death.) I cannot say that all of them are fraud, that is because they refuse some of these to be investigated.
But among those that are fraudulent or apparent fraud includes:
The body of Saint Bernadette of Lourdes. Found to be incorrupt by the Catholic Church but is now wearing a wax face. We all know that wax does not decay.
The body of Saint John Mary Vianney wearing a wax mask.
The body of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina wearing a silicone mask.
The body of Saint Zita. Although it was not given a wax for a face, just take a look at it. See picture. It now resembles a mummy, and has molds growing on it.
For reasons why it failed to decompose, see it here: http://www.skepdic.com/incorrupt.html
So much for miracle.

Participated in wars
Not only the Muslims, Catholics too. They did it to expand their religious empire. OK, kids, just check your history books for more details.

Involved in conspiracies
To name one – assassination plots against Queen Elizabeth I, a protestant queen of England.

Inquisitions
The Catholic Church was involved in a series of inquisitions during the dark ages. (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inquisition. The church is the absolute truth before the dawn of science. Anyone who would go against their teachings are branded as heretic. Heretics are sentenced to death by hanging, torture, burning, etc.
Would you believe it? Before the church was established, christians were persecuted. When they rose into power, they were now the ones that do the persecuting. So much for a religion that is based on Christ’s teachings.

Scandals
One of the recent scandals that took the church by storm is the Catholic sex abuse (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_sex_abuse_cases. These are a series of lawsuits, criminal prosecutions and scandals related to legally documented sex crimes committed or allegedly committed by Catholic priests and members of religious orders, while under diocesan control or in orders which care for the sick or teach children, that first rose to widespread public attention in the last two decades of the 20th century. Although awareness of the scope of these cases first received significant media attention in Canada, Ireland and the United States, other cases were also reported in a number of other countries.
In addition to cases of actual abuse, much of the scandal has focused around members of the Catholic hierarchy who did not report abuse allegations to the civil authorities and, in many cases, reassigned the offenders to other locations where they continued to have contact with minors and had opportunities to continue in their sexual abuse. In defending their actions, some bishops and psychiatrists contended that the prevailing psychology of the times suggested that people could be cured of such behavior through counseling. Members of the church hierarchy have compared the church with the secular world, arguing that media coverage of the issue has been excessive given that abuse occurs in other institutions.

Effect on the Church
European churches suffered heavily from these abuses. Because of these, people lost their trust on the supposedly universal church of Christ. Mass attendance have dwindled significantly. Most churches that were ones filled with enthusiastic souls is now left with a handful of faithful followers. Parents would hesitantly entrust their children to priests because of fear of abuse. The vatican city was also stormed by a number of protesters, some of them were raped by layman, others were parents of the victims of pedophilic (predator) priests.
The universal church of Christ is nothing more than a shadow of its former glory. A symbol of Imperialism. Evil has now corrupted its core.
Here is what Fr. Tom Doyle (Catholic priest and canon law expert) commented to the Church’s response to the child abuse crisis:

“All of this points to the governmental system of the Catholic Church. The closed clerical club that is concerned more about itself than it is about these children who have been abused by priests. The reason for the cover-up all along has been to protect the bleed of money. But, more importantly, it’s to protect the reputation of the Catholic Church.“
“What we’ve learned over 25 years is that the Vatican has stayed mostly hands-off until forced to on this. They first said it was an “American” problem. That has been debunked. They then said it was Western secularism and materialism aided and abetted by the anti-Catholic press. That has also been debunked.”
“This issue goes right to the subculture that runs the Catholic Church. At no time have they been willing to look (at the larger issue). They’ve prosecuted priests (in-house and in secret) by the hundreds since 2002. But not one bishop who has been accused of sexually abusing children himself has been subjected to any kind of penal process. All they have been asked to do is resign, and then they go and live a fairly comfortable retirement.”
“To begin the process of restoration, I believe that the current pope needs to stand up and make a public apology. Not that those mistakes were made in the past — they always do in the past tense and there’s a subtle message there that this is in the past and not now. The pope should say: “I’m sorry for what I did in my negligence to allow this to happen. I’m sorry that I did not fire bishops when I knew they were covering up.”
“But I don’t believe that will ever happen in my lifetime.”
“To protect their own self-identity, they will cling to the premise that they are appointed by the Almighty and are the vicars of Christ and the essence of the church. They believe this will dissolve their power. It’s all about control, and it’s all about power.”
“It’s certainly not going to go away. It’s not going to go away, and I think it’s the beginning – or it’s along the way – of a serious change for the institutional Church, especially for the ruling elite in the Vatican.”
“It’s definitely a moment of truth, and among other things it’s a sign that the world, the society, is no longer going to show the deference to the Vatican, to the Pope, that they always expected. This is a time for accountability.”
“I think a significant number of Catholics react with denial and anger because what this does is it seriously rocks the source of their spiritual security. They don’t like to hear it, but it’s true. I mean, the Catholic Church, the men in the Catholic Church, are human beings – they’re not supermen and they’re not junior gods, they’re people. And there’s a lot of serious, serious corruption that needs to be taken care of so the Church can really be what it’s supposed to be.”
“The Church is really supposed to be about Jesus Christ, not about the Pope. And the fact is that, whatever his intentions were, the Pope and the Vatican have been knowledgeable of this incredibly serious, horrendous plague that’s been inflicted on the people of the Catholic Church for a long time, and they’ve done exactly the wrong things – they’ve tried to cover it up and lie about it to save their own skin, to save their own reputation and image, forgetting what is most important. And what is most important is that these children, the victims – many whom are now adults – they are the ones who need to be taken care of. They’re the ones who are important.”
“They see themselves as some sort of an elite that’s better than everyone, above everyone, and they’re engulfed in secrecy and mystery and everything else.”
“I’m not one anymore to mince words and be diplomatic and fart around with this. I mean, this is it. I’ve spent 25 years talking to people who’ve been ruined because of this stuff, and you know, the whole damn thing, they ought to sell the Vatican to the Mormons or to Disney or something and go out and start all over again.”

So now its true...


"And he called out with a mighty voice, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a dwelling place for demons, a haunt for every unclean spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable beast." Revelation 18:2


They will stand far off, in fear of her torment, and say, “Alas! Alas! You great city, you mighty city, Babylon! For in a single hour your judgment has come.” Revelation 18:10

Got the clue? This "Babylon" is said to be a "mighty city"! So, if it is a religion, what is it? Can anyone give a guess? This "mother of harlots", being "universal", a "mighty city"? Ok, i will not say words anymore so you may not call me BIAS.^_^

the name “Babylon”, which, according to the new American bible, is the code name for “Rome” (I pet. 5:13, footnote).

Catholic Catechism, Part II:

“… The Church is called Roman Catholic because its chief ruler is the lawful bishop of Rome…”

“The word ‘Catholic’ means ‘universal’ or ‘extending all over the world’

And lastly...

"...For in a single hour your judgment has come..."


Blind followers, AWAKE!!
