Vatican Official Explains Why Cardinal Parolin Attended Bilderberg Meeting
The National Catholic Register ^ | 6/15/18 | Ed Pentin

After much deliberation, the Vatican Secretary of State decided to take part in order to convey Catholic social teaching to those who would not otherwise hear it.

Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican Secretary of State, accepted an invitation to address the controversial and secretive Bilderberg Meeting earlier this month in order to take the teaching of the Church to a group who would not otherwise hear it, a Vatican official has told the Register.

The Vatican official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said Italian organizers of the visit were persistent in extending an invitation to the most senior Vatican official after Pope Francis to this year’s event, which took place June 7-10 in Turin, Italy.

“The cardinal decided to take part after the Italian organizers very insistently invited him to the meeting six months ago,” the official explained. “He thought about it for a long time and, after consulting the necessary people, he decided to go.”

Key topics for discussion at the 66th Meeting included “populism in Europe,” “the inequality challenge,” and “the ‘post-truth’ world.”

Founded in 1954 at the Hotel de Bilderberg in Oosterbeek, Netherlands, the Bilderberg Meeting has drawn controversy for its secretive nature and alleged globalist agenda, one that critics say is pushing for open borders and a one world government.

But the organizers convey a more benign organization in which politicians, businessmen, academics and the media can come together to “foster dialogue between Europe and North America” about major issues facing the world.

The meetings are held under the Chatham House Rule, which states that participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of any participant may be revealed.

Well, the current Pope is more concerned with Social Engineering than the saving of souls, so the audience was probably interested in what he had to say. Other than that, they couldn’t care less about what the Catholic Church or any other church has to say.

Seriously, Rothschild (Red Shield in German) is a direct reference to the Vatican!

The Red Shield is the Coat of Arms of the Vatican.

The banking trust is connected at the heart to the Vatican.

Almost all Christian errors, like Islam, can also be connected to the Vatican.

Except for the “Saved bhy Grace” lie.

That one was created by protestants who either couldn’t read, or willingly twisted the word.

My money is on the latter.

It’s misunderstood. As I understand the Bible position, there is no sin that I can commit that I cannot repent of, but the saved by grace crowd twisted the meaning of the words.

Proper repentance means repenting and making amends to those I’ve harmed. Unfortunately, the second part is never taught.

“By grace are ye saved Through Faith.

Faith is living under the covenant that Yeshua renewed in his sinless blood.;

That becomes possible when that covenant is written on our hearts. If it is really written on your heart, you will endeavor to keep it, and when you break it, you will confess and repent! .

Wow! I didn't know that the Vatican has the ONLY red shield coat of arms in the entire world! In the entire history of the world!

Who knew?

Impressive. I wonder if he will take his message to the heathen in a gay pedophile Thai bordello next.

(1)Islam's religious concepts derive from a messed-up mish-mash of Judaism, Nestorianism, and paganism --- not Catholicism.

(2)For centuries, the Catholics and the Orthodox were the only Christians fighting Islam, and the Catholics alone after 1453 when the Muslims took Constantinople.

I recall that at the Battle of Lepanto (1571) and as late as the Battle of Vienna (1683), the Protestant world sat onthe sidelines, entirely uninterested and uninvolved.

“one that critics say is pushing for open borders”

The church should feel right at home. They’ve been pushing open borders here for decades.

Red cords. No red shield.

The Vatican, the red-headed stepchild of Benito Mussolini and Pope Pius XI.

I’m pretty sure the red cords are what the Catholic Order of Albino Assassin Monks uses to strangle folks that oppose the Bilderbergers. So it still works.

Actually the Vatican City State does have a red shield coat of arms, but that has nothing to do with the Rothschild family, which is Jewish and does not have an actual red shield, though that's how their name translates.

`

I think the Albino Assassin Monk wears red shoes. And Pope Francis very cleverly disguises himself by NOT wearing red shoes. Coincidence?

What are the odds?`
