I'll admit that I hate lies and love the truth. Guilty as charged.
Again, anyone who wanted to check on Rivera's credentials would have to go to the source who would have them. IF he was once a priest/bishop/Jesuit, and IF he went to a particular seminary, and IF he was in specific places at specific times, and IF he did claimed to do, and IF he tried to claim to be someone people said he wasn't, wouldn't it make sense for the religious organization he was from try to destroy any documented evidence and deny his claims?
I knew that was coming! It's the classic "the dog ate my homework" non-falsifiable argument. Awesome!
So if there's evidence that Rivera was any of the things he claimed to be, or in any of the places he said he was, he's telling the truth. And if there's no evidence that Rivera was any of the things he claimed to be, or in any of the places he said he was, he's still telling the truth, because the "roman catholic institution" [sic] destroyed all the evidence that would have proven he was telling the truth!!
By the way, did I mention to you that everyone you ever knew was a Reptoid space alien from the planet Zeta Reticuli 4? Of course, I can't prove it, because the conspiracy destroyed all the evidence ... so just trust me, okay?
And again, the entire purpose of this thread has been lost. Those five little words of the Popes "It is as it was" have been lost again. I've said it before in thread and I'll say it again, though I disagree with the roman catholic religious system I do like and appreciate what the man said and I feel those words should reverberate until everyone has heard them. Again, just because I disagree with his principles and religion doesn't mean I can't ask folks to honor him for what he said, can I??
