I don't KNOW that he is not, I just do NOT see him that way. I certainly hope he is not.
He seems to have kindly eyes and a gentle heart. I prefer to read into both a lack of horrific levels of evil.
NEVERTHELESS, I'm FORCED BY HIS WORDS to consider it extremely sobering and troubling that he is
ESSENTIALLY
ADVOCATING A GREATER DEGREE OF GLOBAL CONTROL over economics, migration, distribution of goods, etc. etc. than we have at present.
That's startling. I was startled with the earlier Pope's statement in the list of quotes the last 100 years ref'd in my tagline [I'm still eager to know whether you have managed to read ANY % of that list of quotes, or not].
I was MORE startled to read the critical paragraph in this encyclical.
When he clearly calls for MORE GLOBAL CONTROL, I tend to believe that he means MORE GLOBAL CONTROL.
I don't see any of his champions hereon really dealing with that statement of his much at all, if at all. Why? What's with the blindness or denial of those clear statements of his?
Why is it somehow OK, WONDERFUL, all sweetness and posies wrapping the GREATER GLOBAL CONTROL in sanitizing TRUTH IN LOVE AND SUBSIDIARITY????
Those things do NOT sanitize anything for many of us. They are white-wash. They are a water pistol against a forest fire. They are meaningless idyllic pontifications from either someone grossly out of touch with current global realities or someone grossly denying current global realities.
I CANNOT YET SEE ANY OTHER WAY TO CONSTRUE IT. I've tried for months. Nothing else makes the least bit of sense given the evidence. And it has nothing to do with me seeing Benedict as evil. I don't.
I'm beginning to wonder who's side he's on in terms of satanic glboalism. But that could be from being duped, deluded, or a list of other reasons having little to do with his heart after God or his heart after humanity.
And, I have to be adult enough, smart enough, logical enough, honest enough and informed enough to consider--WHO ELSE ON THE WORLD STAGE IS CURRENTLY CLAMORING FOR
MORE GLOBAL CONTROL?
Functionally, effectively, globally, there is ONLY
ONE
other force, group, movement, etc.
IN BEHALF OF GLOBAL GOVERNMENT . . . though there are myriad sub-groups. THAT IS THE SATANIC GLOBALISTS.
THEY HAVE CLEARLY AND RATHER UNARGUABLY (at this point) been in essential control of the key aspects and parts of the globe and it's component interacting parts for AT LEAST 100 years. That is demonstrable. That is provable. That has tons and tons of hard primary source and primary actors' evidence to back it up. The quotes in my tagline ref are the tip of the ice berg.
So, we have the Pope on the one hand advocating for MORE GLOBAL CONTROL
We have the globalists tightening and extending their already under the table very tyrannical GLOBAL CONTROL over essentially all the main aspects of daily life for the overwhelming majority of the world's populace--and increasing same geometrically and overtly daily.
And just who or what is supposed to make up this global authority who will control America's national sovereignty?
He is not arguing for "global control!" He is arguing for the Christian Spirit as having a fruitful role to play in the working out of human society.
