I first saw Olavo de Carvalho years ago on a program called Update Brazil, which covered the global fight against communism. The video is gone now, the whole channel purged by YouTube. The host was Allan dos Santos, an excellent anti-communist journalist who is now being persecuted and blacklisted by Brazil's far-left Supreme Court. Also on the show were the brilliant American analysts, Jeff Nyquist and Diana West. The fourth person was the only one I didn't recognize. An old and playful Brazilian man. He seemed quirky. Maybe a blogger and friend of Allan's. It was actually Olavo de Carvalho,...

Homeschooling in Brazil: Where Is it Headed? Religious Trends and Esoteric Detours By Julio Severo A prominent Presbyterian blog in Brazil published, on February 5, 2016, an article about homeschooling trends in Brazil. Even though I disagree with them on conservative issues (they consider themselves conservatives, but their Mackenzie Presbyterian University, the largest Protestant university in Brazil, hires pro-abortion and Marxist professors), they were honest enough to mention me as one of the known homeschooling examples in Brazil. Another two homeschooler names mentioned, Josue Bueno and Cleber Nunes, were also reported by me back in 2008 in articles that...

The Horrors of the Inquisition and Its Modern Advocates By Julio Severo As perfidious as to commit a crime is to excuse, understate or deny it. On October 2015 Brazilian philosopher Olavo de Carvalho said in his Brazilian Twitter, "A entidade chamada Inquisicao e uma invencao ficcional de protestantes." Translation: "The entity called the Inquisition was a fictional invention of Protestants." His original statement is here. Other pro-Inquisition statements by him are exposed here. If everything Olavo says about the Inquisition is correct, then Protestants are liars, because they have been saying about the horrors of the Inquisition for...

Why Call Names? An Answer to Olavo de Carvalho By Julio Severo Public comment by Brazilian philosopher Olavo de Carvalho in his Facebook profile (posted on November 25, 2015): "Pope Francis may really be collaborating with globalist ambitions, but the World Council of Churches (which is Protestant) was already collaborating forty years ago. This the scoundrel Julio Severo does not tell." His comment was posted hours after I spread publicly in my Facebook the publication, in Barbwire, of my article "Catholic Church Paid Millions in Dollars to Facilitate Immigrant Invasion in U.S." In this article, no profanity was used...

Over a million Brazilians participated in massive nationwide protests over high taxes and government corruption last week, and some analysts question the real forces behind the protests. Over a Million Brazilians Protest; Analysts Question Real Agenda The New American 25 June 2013 Estimates suggest over a million Brazilians — outraged about everything from high taxes and government corruption to the wasting of taxpayer money on sports tournaments — participated in massive nationwide protests over the last week. The wave of demonstrations, some of which became violent, were supposedly triggered by a small fare increase for public transportation that boiled...

The technique of reverse labeling by Olavo de Carvalho Miguel Nicolelis is a neuroscience teacher at Duke University (USA), founder of the Edmond & Lilly Safra Neuroscientific Institute (Macaíba, RN) and member of the Brazilian and French Academies of Sciences. Added to that notable curriculum was his recent appointment by Pope Benedict XVI to the Vatican’s Pontifical Academy of Sciences. The Viomundo website, directed by journalist Luiz Carlos Azenha, now introduces him in a still more attractive light, claiming the scientist is a defenseless victim of a vast hate and fear mongering campaign waged by the eternally abominable “extreme right.”...

I recently received a kind email from Olavo de Carvalho, the dissident writer from Brazil who has taken refuge here due to the deteriorating situation in South America. Laigle’s Forum has run two of Mr. de Carvalho’s articles in previous columns: http://laiglesforum.com/2007/03/08/warning-from-a-brazilian-pundit.aspx http://laiglesforum.com/2006/06/27/behind-the-subsersion.aspx The second of the above links provides insight into the Council on Foreign Relations, the sinister group behind our open-border policies and our move toward a North American Union. Below is the email, posted with Mr. de Carvalho’s permission:

Recently I had the chance to spend some time with an extraordinary individual. Of Brazilian origin, this university professor, thinker, philosopher and self-made investigative journalist revealed a wholly unknown reality -for me at least- vis-a-vis the nature of the Sao Paulo Forum; its members and its carefully orchestrated political goals. Often one tends to incur in the mistake of judging situations isolatedly, which, according to Olavo de Carvalho, shows not only ignorance but naivete. Aghast with the wealth of knowledge that Olavo commands on Brazilian and regional politics, I intended to unravel through a series of questions the reasons behind...
