My ordination came from the Church of Divine Man, after 13 years of study at the seminary known as the Berkeley Psychic Institute.
My spiritual quest began I s'ppose in the early 70's as I contemplated Chariots of the Gods, Sgt. Peppers, metaphysics, the occult, Tarot, and astrology.
When I was younger I was into the "Chariots of the Gods" and other writings that favored the "Ancient Astronaut" theory.
I was also reading alot on Remote Viewing, and some of David Morehouse's writings, and the writings of a british remote viewer who claimed to have beaten British Intelligence's psychics in some sort of psychic fight. He also claimed to be able to alter his own DNA with his ability, and kill people.
I also read a book by a man who claims to have used Remote Viewing to visit the future, the past, the moon and extraterrestrials from Mars and a species called the Greys.
But nothing was consistent in their claims and at times they contradicted each other.
I finally left that nonsense behind when I started reading about more and more of these "Remote Viewers" coming under demonic possession.
In my adolescent mind they were ALL viable and worthy and 'one and the same'
I later found out that that is called Theosophy.
Everyone is included, so that makes a good premise in my mind.
" I'm not one of those ;
' the Lord this, and the Lord that ' kinda guys;
I'm a ' street priest ',
I just talk normally; it's my way of making ' God '
palatable for Joe Citizen.
I'm real and try to tell it like it is."
Why don't I tell you a little bit about us. We on this forum are more... traditionally minded Catholics.
For news we listen to Alex Jones and go to his sites InfoWars.com and PrisonPlanet.com, not the CIA controlled CNN or the NeoCon Fox.
Some of us are Distributists. Distributism is a Catholic ecomonic philosophy put together by Hilaire Belloc and GK Chesterton, two of the best Catholic writers of the 20th century. As Distributists, we oppose big business (Libertarians/Capitalism) and we also oppose big government (Socialism/Communism). We favor small business and cooperatives and local small government. Subsidiarity is key.
Some of us are also monarchists. Most of us believe in the Absolutist monarchism, but since we are not Protestants we don't believe the "Divine Right of kings" theory. Not many of us follow the Constitutional monarchy ideology.
We don't really like the Second Vatican Council, this Council was held from 1962 to 1965. We are very traditionally minded Catholics and some of us believe that the Council was highjacked by the same "One World Government" "nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr" crowd. Among them the Modernists and suspected Freemasons.
The heresy called Modernism (Modernism isn't what it sounds like, the heresy of Modernism has been around since the 1800's) has taken over many priests and bishops. Modernism is the enemy of Tradition, and Tradition has always been an essential part of Catholicism. If Tradition were to be removed, it would no longer be Catholicism.
Hence, there are some among us who do not consider the Popes after Blessed Pius the XIIth to be Popes. They are called Sedevacantists, but they are the minority among traditional Catholics.
Most traditional Catholics are supporters of the SSPX. Here's a short history of the SSPX, this sums up much of what we traditionally minded Catholics believe:
http://www.sspx.org/SSPX_FAQs/appendix_iii_history_1.htmThere are also Indult attending Catholics here. The main factor that ties us together (SSPX supporters, Sedevacantists and Indult attenders) is that we don't attend the new mass (called the Novus Ordo mass) and instead we attend the Traditional Latin Mass. The Novus Ordo was a new liturgy that was put together some years after the Second Vatican Council. The Novus Ordo mass was put together by Modernists, suspected Freemasons (the Church doesn't allow Catholics to become Freemasons), and possibly the protestant ministers who were there as observers.
The Novus Ordo is not considered to be a completely Catholic Mass by traditionalists, so we attend the older Traditional Latin Mass.
Attendance of the Traditional Latin Mass and the disfavor towards the Second Vatican Council. Those two are usually the unifying factors among the more traditionally minded Catholics.
The September 11 attacks and the London Bombings were carried out by our governments. Most traditional Catholics on this forum agree on this.
Many politicians and CEOs from around the world are Bohemian Grove attendees, occultists, Freemasons and members of other secret societies and occult activities who are tied into the "Novus Ordo Seclorum/nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr" conspiracy to bring about one world government. Many of us on this forum agree on this also.
Zionism is one of the forces manipulating the psuedoChristians in our government. Globalism is pushing the North American Union into existence and pushed NAFTA and CAFTA.
The Bavarian Illuminati, founded back in 1776 is the group originally responsible for this nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr mess that the West has been sucked into....
Well, I guess that is a short intro into what we "trads" think. We hope you understand us a little better Radical Priest.
