I never said the Catholics supported Israel or Jews. I said there is people who are Catholic faith who do support Israel. I am not blind to oppression commited by Catholics against Jews. However, the mentality of Old Catholicism has left for a revised version of Catholicism which is more opened to teaching of Jews as being a Chosen People and Israel as Land Of Jewish. However, I know there is many Old-School Catholics who hate the "Christ Killers". However, the Catholics were more accepting to converts than Orthodox. Even one of the would-be popes, highest ranking cardinal is half Jewish (on mother side, legally Jewish). You will not find any Jewish converts who could ever make it to such high rank in most Orthodox churches. As a matter of fact, Russians regurlarly screen their leaders and officials to make sure they dont have any alien, Jewish blood, like which they accused of Medvedev.
I do not agree with you in general but I appreciate your openness.
Thanks for proving my point.
The Catholics are willing to compromise, that means that they are not strong in their religion. Today have you many Catholic missionaries who are willing to compromise with Protestants and Orthodox Christians. We strongly disagree with this, because we are simply not the same religion. If we were we would not have so many differences.
But because the Roman church had left the Apostolic Church, by bringing changes into their teachings – they have nothing in common anymore with that old religion of their forefather (before the year of 1054). If you do not believe me do some research. Before the Roman Church left the Apostolic Church (before the year of 1054) they, who called them today Roman Catholics, had exactly the same teachings which are today only offered by the Orthodox Church. Western priests were before 1054 Orthodox Christians and their teaching was in accordance with the teachings of the Churchfathers and the apostles. The Western priests were wearing bears, praying with icons and were getting married – before 1054. After 1054 (Church break) they had brought changes into their religion. Sins that moment they had lost the purity of the Christian religion.
I must say this, the Western Church had changed a long time before the year of 1054 their teachings. The had officially separated their selves from us in 1054.
In 1054 the volcano finally exploded with consequence the well know Church separation.
But before 1054 the same volcano could had exploded any moment because it was constantly boiling.
They, the Catholics, were demanding from us the Eastern Christians, who kept the teachings of the Churchfathers, to also accept the Pope and his new view of modern Christianity. We had refused that and since then they never stopped with the prosecution against us.
The Vatican will never rest until whole Europe is catholized or at least Orthodox free.
They want to destroy everything that reminds them about their old faith about Orthodox pure Christianity. In order to destroy Orthodox Christianity they, the Vatican, supported the Muslims destruction against the Orthodox Byzantic Empire.
They have cooperated with anybody in order to destroy Orthodoxy.
- In the 14 and 15 century – the Vatican helped the Turkish Empire to destroy the Orthodox Byzantic Empire.
- In the beginning of the 20th century the Vatican in cooperation with the international freemasons had launched the criminal ideology of communism in Serbia and Russia.
This regressive system hafizes the Russian population. The Communist crimes against the Serbs and Russians are well know.
The Pope had said many times after USSR’s collapse that communism, as intended, had succeeded in the political, economical and spiritual destruction of Russia and Serbia and that this process shall continue.
Once again, I don't know about Serbian Orthodox.
It is the same as Russian Orthodoxy.
However, your past heroism does not make up for negligence you are doing today, by supporting a rising evil regime that has been our enemy for over 1000 of years, perhaps. It was also the Orthodox Church who supported pogroms and blood libels against Jews and help label Jews as enemies of G-d and Christ killers.
The Russian Orthodox Church did not support that.
Come the Church does not propagate hatered towards Jews.
If some Jews had been prosecuted in a large country like Russia, you can not blame the Russian Orthodox Church collectively. The Russian Orthodox did not support the collective blaming of the Jews for what happened 2000 years ago.
There is a difference between individual crimes and crime organized by authorities like the Church (Vatican for example against the Jews) and the government (for example Nazi Germany’s government). The Russians had never tried to biological exterminate the Jews or others. The individual crimes who are committed against the Jews I of course condemn - that is possible in a large country like Russia - but you can not blame the Russian nation or Church.
I also do not blame the whole Jewish nation for crimes against Serbs committed by Jewish politicians.
Futher many Jews lived in Russia and live today.
They have even their own autonomous area in Russia!
