Britons could learn from 'vibrant' faith of Muslim migrants (says British Cardinal)
Daily Telegraph ^ | 4 NOVEMBER 2016 | John Bingham

British people have much to learn from the “vibrancy of the Muslim faith” of new immigrants including refugees, the leader of the Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales has said.

Cardinal Vincent Nichols said immigrants had been enduring a worsening “atmosphere of fear” in the months since the EU referendum with the members of the public casually voicing hatred in a “self-indulgent” way.

He accused politicians of “trading in fear” and said media stories constantly portraying immigration in a negative light were proving “corrosive of our best nature”.

"So Cardinal Vincent Nichols wants a flock of zealots."

Simon Zealotes: Christ, what more do you need to convince you,
That you've made it and your easily as strong
As the filth from Rome who rape our country
And who've terrorized our people for so long?

There must be over fifty thousand,
Screaming love and more for you;
Every one of fifty thousand
Would do whatever you asked them to.

Keep them yelling their devotion,
But add a touch of hate at Rome;
You will rise to a greater power,
We will win ourselves a home.

You'll get the power and the glory,
Forever and ever, amen!

Jesus: Neither you, Simon, nor the fifty thousand,
Nor the Romans, nor the Jews,
Nor Judas, nor the twelve,
Nor the priests, nor the scribes,
Nor doomed Jerusalem itself
Understands what Power is,
Understands what Glory is;
Understands at all.

Vocal dialogue between Simon the Zealot and Jesus

Another self-loathing Catholic. Can’t the Mother Church sit on loose cannon loosers like Frank and this one?

The only muslim “vibrancy” that concerns me is the vibration of a cell phone detonator on one of their bombs.

Maybe if his congregations were threatened with death if they recanted the faith, he could keep more of his flock, too. After all, that is the Muslim way to keep the “pews” filled.

Calling vibrant what is we all know is DERANGED is.....well, DERANGED.

He deserves to be dropped off in Iran for proper re-education.

Well, the Cardinal does have a point. Does anyone see Catholics, or other Christians in Britain, or for that matter, anywhere in Europe, with as much fervor for their faith as Muslims?

Cardinal Vincent Nichols insisted that an increasingly secular British society could learn much from the faith of new arrivals

The cardinal makes an excellent argument against organized religion – both his own and that of Caliph al-Baghdadi.

So now the Vatican's highest ranking point man in Britain is trying to package the insane notion of a “vibrancy of the Muslim faith” as some sort of requisite wisdom? Why not also promote the "vibrancy" of Satanism while he's at it?

The Vatican's primary obsessions have been in convincing the flock to accept the tenets of Marxism, Islam, and Secular Humanism -- in the process, condemning the flock to physical and spiritual suicide. This as they oddly ignore promoting the Gospel.

Cardinal Vincent Nichols -- so-called "leader" of the RCC branch office (England and Wales) -- as well as the Pope Francis AND Vatican itself, are demon-possessed sham.

He [Cardinal Vincent Nichols] accused politicians of “trading in fear” and said media stories constantly portraying immigration in a negative light were proving “corrosive of our best nature”.

"Portrayal"? OR TRUTH?? Are the countless factual reports stories of rape and wanton slaughter of Christians in Africa and the Middle East also "portrayals" that are "trading in fear"?

On what planet is this lying piece of propagandist excrement?

IOW, the Vatican's main man in Britain, the Cardinal, is now a paid shill for a Death Cult and/or Muslim convert. If the Vatican allows this opinion to stand on its own, their entire leadership echelon opinion as well he who is called, "The Vicar of Christ" concurs with Nichols entire statement.

He is leading his flock, Lambs to the slaughter

Yup. Proof that both Nichols AND Bergoglio work for the OTHER team. They are damned AND damning the children whose souls they've been tasked to save. Never mind acting as enablers of a Death Cult.

RCs must concede the obvious and abandon a secretive, hypocritical Vatican that acts more and more like a totalitarian tool of the NWO and anti-Christ. ONE MORE MASK IS FALLING OFF.

Yes, Satan grows strong during is last days.

Can it be denied that the globalist elites are now simultaneously doing all they can to turn upside-down or destroy every institution, including personal and national sovereignty, as well as THE TRUTH itself? And that this conspiracy is enabled and JOINED BY the Vatican and its Pope?

Tinfoil hats are EXTINCT. Yes, there is a confluence of evil from major institutions that is NOT coincidental. Everyone had put on the Armor of the Lord. Quick.
