Absolutely Appalling…Obama Uses Banks to Control Catholic Church
Gateway Pundit ^ | 3-20-12 | Andrea Ryan

A core component of Marxism is to destroy organized religion. So, Obama’s new attack on the Catholic Church should be no surprise.

First, it was the unprecedented effort to destroy the church’s rights of religious conscience through a contraception benefit mandate. Now, Obama is abusing the power of the Executive Branch by using the banks to control the Catholic Church.

Following up on his directive to put the Vatican on the Money Laundering List, Obama is, now, meting out his punishment.

Via The Blaze,

(Excerpt)

JPMorgan Chase is shutting down the Vatican’s bank account with its Milan branch due to a “lack of transparency,” according to Reuters.

“The Vatican bank, also known as the Institute for Works of Religion (IOR), is having its account phased out and closed by March 30,” Business Insider’s Julia La Roche reports, “because it apparently ‘failed to provide sufficient information on money transfers.’”

…last year the Vatican formally adopted internal laws to comply with international standards on financial crime and they now comply with the rules of the Paris-based Financial Action Task Force (FATF), according to Reuters.

*snip*

Considering the fact that the Catholic Church is currently engaged in a culture war with the Obama administration (and the world at large), a few critics believe we are witnessing much more than a mere pursuit of “financial transparency.”

Wake up, people! Obama is no Democrat. He’s just a conventional Marxist using executive powers to achieve Marxist goals on the way to his Marxist Utopia.

* RULE 7: “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news. (Even radical activists get bored. So to keep them excited and involved, organizers are constantly coming up with new tactics.)

As far as "occupiers" are concerned this is the Achilles heel. Please born again Christians, go to these camps and preach The Gospel. The Word of God is the one and only antidote to all of this. We must finally rise up as an The Army of God and go forth preaching The Gospel to these people until their minds and hearts spin with it. Then we can watch and see what The LORD will do.

We by the power of God when we go forth and preach The Gospel are "the stronger than he". Remember we fight not against flesh and blood. Let's take their soldiers away from them. It matters not how base they seem for it is such as the occupiers that can become soldiers in The Army of God. Let's stop wringing our hands but start acting upon faith and storm the gates of hell!

A Marxist by any other name stinks the same.

Starting to seem more like the AntiChrist than a president.

"In 2008 while CINOs {Catholics in name only} voted for obummer, Catholics that regularly attend Sunday Mass voted for mcpain 53-46."

When the number of Catholics who found neither candidate worth voting for is considered Obama got less than 23% of the Catholic vote.

I agree. That’s why we shouldn’t let them declare themselves to be Democrats, Progressives, Liberals, Labor or any of the other euphemisms for Marxist that they’ve tried to sneak past us for the last 100+ years. They believe in Marx. They are Marxists.

I commmented because the article says that he’s no Democrat, he’s a Marxist, as if the two are different. He is a Democrat. He is a Marxist. They are the same.

Yes but history shows that voters do not like to admit they were wrong. Additionally, I have little faith in fellow Catholics for that very reason. Highly unlikely to switch back away from the dark side.
Fact is, as noted in my post, most do not nearly pay attention to current events as we on FR do.
