Four Ways to Discern a Man's Soul
by His Appearance
You can discern a man's soul by his face, eyes, laugh, clothing and way of walking. These are the ways to know the soul of a man taught by Fr. Cornelius a Lapide, S.J.. If you don't believe it, read these commentaries on the topic by many Saints and Catholic theologians.
Fr. Cornelius a Lapide, S.J.
- The attire of the body and the laughter of the teeth and the gait of the man show what he is. (Ecclesiasticus 19:27)
"Interpreting this verse, Siracides gives four ways by which one can see, as through windows of the soul, the hidden virtues or vices, the simplicity or hypocrisy of a person.
"The first quite clear way is the outward appearance and the expression of the face, principally the eyes. The nature of a person shows and reveals itself by the eyes. For if the lamp of the body is the eyes, why is it surprising if that lamp should reveal the body? So, when one first meets a ferocious man, his eyes seem to spread terror; when one meets a pious man, his eyes spread joy. Just as wisdom and sanctity shine in the face of the wise and the holy, (Eccles, 8:1), so also foolishness and evil darken the face of the stupid and wicked.
"St. Ambrose (Book on Elias, chap. 10) admirably says: “The face is a witness of the thoughts and is a silent interpreter of the heart. The outward appearance is often a sign of the conscience and the unspoken words of the mind.”
"St. Augustine (Rule for the Servants of God, at the end) says: “Do not say that you have pure souls if you have impure eyes, because impure eyes are messengers of an impure heart.”
"The second way is the clothing or dress: overbearing apparel reveals interior pride, false dress reveals falsity; dissolute dress, dissolution; capricious apparel, capriciousness; grave clothing, gravity; sensual dress indicates and represents sensuality of spirit. Hence St. Augustine (Letter 73 to Possidium) says: “The true adornment of the Christian is not false make up, nor opulent and ostentatious dress, but rather good customs.”
"By means of the face, dress, and dissolute customs of Julian the Apostate, St. Gregory nαzιanzen discerned his hidden impiety. He refers to it (Speech 2, in Julian) with these words: “Nor does it speak of any good to me to see a man with a weak neck, stooping shoulders, a constantly agitated bearing, insolent eyes and a roving and furious gaze, unstable and tottering feet, an offensive nose breathing contempt, and an arrogant and unrestrained laugh.” After describing his dissolute soul with other similar observations, he argues: “Hence his bearing speaks clearly: What a great evil the Roman land has nourished!” ….
"The third way is the laugh. Indeed, the sincere and regular laugh reveals a sincere, constant and open heart. The short, twisted, sardonic, and arrogant laugh reveals a narrow, twisted, fraudulent, and arrogant spirit and signifies an imbued hatred. In this respect Rabanus says that by the bearing of the body one demonstrates the quality of the will. ….
"The fourth way is the manner of walking. The fast and precipitate way of walking is a symptom of the impulsive spirit, just as the slow step reveals slowness of spirit; the light step, lightness of spirit; the arrogant step, an arrogant spirit; the furious step, an angry spirit; and an affected or feigned step, falseness of spirit.
"For this reason, Bede (in Proverbs) says: “The movement of the body demonstrates the habit of the mind.”
"And St. Bernard (On the Way to Live Well, chap. 9) says: “Let your way of walking be simple, and your step honest. No shame, no sensuality, no arrogance, no insolence, no frivolity should appear in your way of walking. Indeed, the spirit shows itself in the movement of the body, the carriage of the body is a signal of the soul.”

Really? Tell that to the victims of serial killer & sodomite John Wayne Gacy. He appeared normal to them in every way, which is how he lured them to being trapped and, ultimately, sodomized, tortured and murdered. Looks can deceive most people.
It seems many trads have an elitist attitude on appearance and socio-economic positions of people. I'd rather trust Our Lord in discerning a man's soul:
"Judge not according to the appearance: but judge just judgment." - Matthew 7:24

I had never heard of this Gacy, so I did a search.
.
Apparently, he did not appear "normal in every way", as some of his victims were actually abducted, gagged, or tricked. His victims were almost exclusively teenagers, who are not, as a rule, experienced enough to make good judgements.
.
The photos of him show him to have a weak chin and to be overweight, as well as having shifty eyes, looking down and away from the camera, on an occasion when he would normally look straight at the camera (on the occasion of meeting Roslyn Carter, the President's wife).
.
He was a mason. He played the clown for "fundraisers", and it was noted that "some professional clowns noted the sharp corners Gacy painted at the edges of his mouth are contrary to the rounded borders that professional clowns normally employ, so as not to scare children."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Wayne_Gacy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Wayne_Gacy)
.
Now we know that the more one matures in the Christian faith, with the Gifts of the Holy Spirit ever growing in us, the more we are able to discern good and evil.
.
Besides the above post is essentially a collection of writings from Scripture and the Saints, noted for their wisdom.

A good man can wear rags with dignity. The eyes are the mirror of the soul.

To his victims, he appeared normal. If he came off as abnormal or evil in any way, they wouldn't have trusted him and become lured into being trapped.
Robert Berdella, Patrick Wayne Kearney and William Bonin are three other serial killers and sodomites who looked normal and gained the trust of their victims. Many of their victims were men. If their victims knew they were sodomites, or if they looked abnormal or evil, they wouldn't have trusted them.
There are some teens who have better judgement than adults regarding the character of other people. Teens have intuition which is correct a lot of times. Adults are prone to losing touch with their intuition because they're distracted with worldly things and stupid pursuits that don't really matter.

Besides the above post is essentially a collection of writings from Scripture and the Saints, noted for their wisdom.
I'll take Jesus Christ's wisdom over saints' wisdom any day. He said "judge not according to appearance, but judge a just judgement."
Satan appears as an angel of light. He's not the scary, ugly monster depicted in movies. Many psychopaths and serial killers use charm, looks and charisma, or plain normalcy, to trick their victims.
There are more psychopaths wearing suits and ties, and blouses and high heels, than there are in destitution.
Turn on the TV. You'll see them. They work in government, banks and corporations. Sadly, they've worn the roman collar, too. Parents were oblivious to them abusing their children. Did they look like monsters or pious, trustworthy people?

Thanks Incred! That's a really great post!
I might as well mention what I had deleted in my OP. It was a youtube video which showed a Catholic pro-life individual strenuously and very intelligently debating against a couple of staunch pro abortion individuals. The pro-aborts looked and acted somewhat unhinged by the very solid argument the pro-life individual was making. There was quite a different look in their eyes from the look in the pro-lifer's eyes! In any event, yes, it is true that the devils and those who push his agenda -- God willing -- sometimes appear as "angels of light," although in the video the two pro-aborts certainly didn't appear as good angels!

Ah yes, weak chins and droopy noses are surely caused by vices of character. I suppose models are the most virtuous of us all.

I'll take Jesus Christ's wisdom over saints' wisdom any day. He said "judge not according to appearance, but judge a just judgement."

If you ever think that Our Lord's wisdom and a Saint's wisdom are contradicting each other, please consult a Traditional Catholic Priest. The writings of the saints should complement the words of Our Lord, those saints and their writings have been carefully reviewed by truly great minds.

If you mean sociopaths and not psychopaths then I agree. Psychopaths are usually very unstable in their behavior and do not rise very high in an occupational endeavor.

This is Scriptural, which means it’s infallible!
-
Jesus was speaking to the Jews who were finding fault with what He did, that is, He healed a man on the sabbath. He was not speaking of anyone's presentation or looks. You can't just drag out scripture and make say what you want it to say.
Besides, the Saints and Scripture never challenge His Words, so you don't have to make a choice between what they say and He says.

"The Gaze and the Eyes":
Here's a good example, that occurred around the time TIA first posted their article.

This guy wasn't just an isolated nut. He had the help of jew-programming too.
His jewess college instructors had gotten him into some pretty hateful "literature".
When this was discovered, they denied it and covered their trail.
Bottom-line, you could read this guy 50 yards away.
And if you claim you couldn't, I submit you lack the Grace of Discernment... so pray more Holy Rosaries.

Writings from saints don't always compliment words of God. St.Thomas Aquinas rejected the Immaculate Conception. By your "logic" the saints are infallible and their writings carry as much truth as dogma defined by popes.

So this passage form Scripture isn’t infallible?
The attire of the body, and the laughter of the teeth, and the gait of the man, shew what he is.

It just may be that the appearance spoken of (John 7:24) relates to the dignity of a person, e.g. rich, poor, king, peasant, bishop, layman, father, son.
Commentary ff Cornelius A Lapide, John 7:
https://www.ecatholic2000.com/lapide/untitled-100.shtml#_Toc385609043
Ver. 24.—Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment. He charges the Jews with acceptance of persons, in acquitting Moses, or rather themselves, in a like matter, but accusing and condemning Jesus. Ye accuse Me as a Sabbath-breaker only for healing a sick man by my divine power, whereas ye think it lawful by the law of Moses to circuмcise and wound a child, to heal his wound by applying plasters, and to staunch the blood, which is much more tedious, painful and horrible. And this is because ye judge not according to the truth of things, but according to the dignity of the persons. For Me ye contemn as vile, poor and hated; but ye set up yourselves with Moses as the chiefs and teachers of the people. For were ye to judge according to our doings, ye ought to acquit Me as well as Moses and yourselves; or if ye condemn Me, ye should condemn both Moses and yourselves. For I healed the man on the Sabbath, but ye with Moses on the very same day first wound and afterwards heal the child. And my object was even more holy, because I did it only for the glory of God, to show that I was the Messiah. So say S. Augustine, S. Chrysostom, and others. Many think that Christ here put Himself above Moses. But it would be more fitly said that Christ here compared Himself with the Jews, who, according to the law of Moses, circuмcised on the Sabbath. But Moses never expressly commanded this. It was merely inferred from his words.
St. Chrysostom, Homily 49 on the Gospel of John
http://www.newadvent.org/fathers/240149.htm
John 7:24
"Judge not according to appearance."
What is, "according to appearance"? "Do not, since Moses has the greatest honor among you, give your decision according to your estimation of persons, but according to the nature of things; for this is to judge rightly. Wherefore has no one of you reproved Moses? Wherefore has no one disobeyed him when he orders that the Sabbath be broken by a commandment introduced from without into the Law? He allows a commandment to be of more authority than his own Law; a commandment not introduced by the Law, but from without, which is especially wonderful; while you who are not lawgivers are beyond measure jealous for the Law, and defend it. Yet Moses, who orders that the Law be broken by a commandment which is not of the Law, is more worthy of confidence than you." By saying then, (I have made) "a whole man (healthy)," He shows that circuмcision also was "partial" health. And what was the health procured by circuмcision? "Every soul," It says, "that is not circuмcised, shall be utterly destroyed." Genesis 17:14 "But I have raised up a man not partially afflicted, but wholly undone." "Judge not," therefore, "according to appearance."
Be we persuaded that this is said not merely to the men of that time, but to us also, that in nothing we pervert justice, but do all in its behalf; that whether a man be poor or rich, we give no heed to persons, but enquire into things. "You shall not pity," It says, "the poor in judgment." Exodus 23:3 What is meant? "Be not broken down, nor bent," It says, "if he that does the wrong be a poor man." Now if you may not favor a poor man, much less a rich. And this I say not only to you who are judges, but to all men, that they nowhere pervert justice, but preserve it everywhere pure. "The Lord," It says, "loves righteousness"; and, "he that loves iniquity hates his own soul." Psalm 11:7, Septuagint Let us not, I entreat, hate our own souls, nor love unrighteousness. For certainly its profit in the present world is little or nothing, and for the world to come it brings great damage. Or rather, I should say, that not even here can we enjoy it; for when we live softly, yet with an evil conscience, is not this vengeance and punishment? Let us then love righteousness, and never look aside from that law. For what fruit shall we gain from the present life, if we depart without having attained unto excellence? What there will help us? Will friendship, or relations, or this or that man's favor? What am I saying? This or that man's favor? Though we have Noah, Job, or Daniel for a father, this will avail us nothing if we be betrayed by our own works. One thing alone we need, that is, excellency of soul. This will be able to carry you safe through, and to deliver you from everlasting fire, this will escort you to the Kingdom of Heaven. To which may we all attain, through the grace and lovingkindness of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom and with whom, to the Father and the Holy Ghost be glory, now and ever and world without end. Amen.
St. Augustine, Tractate 30 (John 7:19-24)
www.newadvent.org/fathers/1701030htm
6. "Judge not according to personal appearance, but judge righteous judgment." What is this? Just now, you who by the law of Moses circuмcise on the Sabbath day are not angry with Moses; and because I made a man whole on the Sabbath day you are angry with me. You judge by the person; give heed to the truth. I do not prefer myself to Moses, says the Lord, who was also the Lord of Moses. So consider us as you would two men, as both men; judge between us, but judge a true judgment; do not condemn him by honoring me, but honor me by understanding him. For this He said to them in another place: "If you believed Moses ye would certainly believe me also, for he wrote of me." John 5:46 But in this place He willed not to say this, Himself and Moses being as it were placed before these men for judgment. Because of Moses' law you circuмcise, even when it happens to be the Sabbath day, and will you not that I should show the beneficence of healing during the Sabbath? For the Lord of circuмcision and the Lord of the Sabbath is the same who is the Author of health; and they are servile works that you are forbidden to do on the Sabbath; if you really understand what servile works are, you sin not. For he that commits sin is the servant of sin. Is it a servile work to heal a man on the Sabbath day? You do eat and drink (to infer somewhat from the admonition of our Lord Jesus Christ, and from His words); at any rate, why do you eat and drink on the Sabbath, but because that what ye do pertains to health? By this ye show that the works of health are not in any wise to be omitted on the Sabbath. Therefore "do not judge by person, but judge righteous judgment." Consider me as you would a man; consider Moses as a man: if you will judge according to the truth, you will condemn neither Moses nor me; and when you know the truth you will know me, because I am the Truth.
7. It requires great labor in this world, brethren to get clear of the vice which the Lord has noted in this place, so as not to judge by appearance, but to keep right judgment. The Lord, indeed, admonished the Jews, but He warned us also; them He convicted, us He instructed; them He reproved, us He encouraged. Let us not imagine that this was not said to us, simply because we were not there at that time. It was written, it is read; when it was recited we heard it; but we heard it as said to the Jews; let us not place ourselves behind ourselves and watch Him reproving enemies, while we ourselves do that which the truth may reprove in us. The Jews indeed judged by appearance, but for that reason they belong not to the New Testament, they have not the kingdom of heaven in Christ, nor are joined to the society of the holy angels; they sought earthly things of the Lord; for a land of promise, victory over enemies, fruitfulness of child-bearing, increase of children, abundance of fruit — all which things were indeed promised to them by God, the True and the Good, promised to them, however, as unto carnal men, — all these things made for them the Old Testament. What is the Old Testament? The inheritance, as it were, belonging to the old man. We have been renewed, have been made a new man, because He who is the new man has come. What is so new as to be born of a virgin? Therefore, because there was not in Him what instruction might renew, because He had no sin, there was given Him a new origin of birth. In Him a new birth, in us a new man. What is a new man? A man renewed from oldness. Renewed unto what? Unto desiring heavenly things, unto longing for things eternal, unto earnestly seeking the country which is above and fears no foe, where we do not lose a friend nor fear an enemy; where we live with good affection, without any want; where no longer any advances, because none fails; where no man is born, because no man dies; where there is no hungering nor thirsting; where immortality is fullness, and truth our aliment. Having these promises, and pertaining to the New Testament, and being made heirs of a new inheritance, and co-heirs of the Lord Himself, we have a far different hope from theirs: let us not judge by appearance, but hold right judgment.
8. Who is he that judges not according to the person? He that loves equally. Equal love causes that persons be not accepted. It is not when we honor men in diverse measure according to their degrees that we ought to fear lest we are accepting persons. For where we judge between two, and at times between relations, sometimes it happens that judgment has to be made between father and son; the father complains of a bad son, or the son complains of a harsh father; we regard the honor which is due to the father from the son; we do not make the son equal to the father in honor, but we give him preference if he has a good cause: let us regard the son on an equality with the father in the truth, and thus shall we bestow the honor due, so that equity destroy not merit. Thus we profit by the words of the Lord, and that we may profit, we are assisted by His grace.

.
I think you are grasping at straws. Accusing St Thomas of rejecting the Immaculate Conception. You need to study a little more. Of course saints are not infallible, and I did not even imply that. neither do their words go against scripture. They complEment scripture, though.

I don't know why verse 26 was left out from the post with the article:

[26] A man is known by his look, and a wise man, when thou meetest him, is known by his countenance. [27] The attire of the body, and the laughter of the teeth, and the gait of the man, shew what he is.

Good post Incred!
This debunks the saying that today is a Creed: "You can't judge a book by it's cover" - although not always, quite often you most certainly can judge a book by it's cover - and contrary to the creed, the same goes for people as per your OP.

You're the one who needs to study more. St. Thomas Aquinas rejected the Immaculate Conception. That's not a straw being grasped. The IC inevitably became affirmed and defined as dogmatic truth by the Church. His rejection of IC was not a compliment of scripture.

What I mean by grasping at straws is that you are introducing a totally irrelevant topic.
.
As I just acknowleged saints are not infallible and do not go against scripture and Thomas d'Aquino qualifies as a saint.
.
BTW, a compliment is an expression of praise. You need to use the word "complement" which means to contribute to, or fill up what is missing.
-
It's not irrelevant.
Scripture heavily suggests that Blessed Virgin Mary is the Immacualte Conception. It refers to her as the Ark of the Living Covenant. Only such Ark can be completely pure. To be completely pure, she must be conceived immaculately and freely (by choice) remained without sin.
Rejecting the IC doesn't complement scripture. It's a failure of understanding an essential teaching of the Faith and bible.
-
There's no doubt that sodomites and Jews, more or less, have predatory eyes and a wicked countenance, but they're a very small portion of the population. The rest of the population shouldn't necessarily be judged according to their appearance. Sure, if you feel uneasy about a person upon first meeting them, there's nothing wrong with showing caution or avoding them. Go with your intuition, but the fact remains good people are all too often judged badly because of superficial attributes, and conversely, psychopaths are trusted because they hide behind convincing smiles, smooth talk, or various status symbols.

Forlorn, Your interpretation of your own photo example is off base.
I see a happy, young holy religious and any cosmetic imperfections are irrelevant.
One's eyes and countenance can be interpreted in context to the situation:
For example:

Here's three sets of eyes... that less than an hour before, saw billions of souls being tormented by demons in the cauldron of Hell.
It was reported that the children's countenance, seriousness of behavior and even the look in their eyes changed after this day.

Go with your intuition, but the fact remains good people are all too often judged badly because of superficial attributes, and conversely, psychopaths are trusted because they hide behind convincing smiles, smooth talk, or various status symbols.

[color=AF0000]IT”S A STRANGE PHENOMENA…[/color] or perhaps better said, a peculiar physiognomy whereby the facial features of the Jew reveals a particular character.[/font][/size]
A cursory glance at celebrated Jews brings to the eye a frightful specter, that is, it brings into view a noxious inner personality and a degenerate spiritual condition.
One particular aspect exhibited in certain Jews is the fold and corners of the lips.
Take Ruth Bader Ginsburg for instance. Quite often a crooked mouth is on display.
What in her innermost being is manifested in her lower face?
Perhaps since she touted a pro-ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ line prior to the Supreme Court ruling that [color=FF3300]eviscerated [/color] (http://www.realjewnews.com/?p=830Supreme)the Defense of Marriage Act, and had [color=FF3300]officiated[/color] (https://www.politico.com/story/2013/08/ruth-bader-ginsburg-same-sex-wedding-096119) at least one ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ wedding prior to the Court’s ruling that legalized same-sex ‘marriage,’ and yet did not recuse herself from both cases, thus her mouth exhibits a supplanted evenness of justice.
Why didn’t she do the just thing and recuse herself from both cases?
Because ‘justice’ means ‘just us’ for the litigating Jew but contempt for the moral norms of prevailing opinion.
(http://www.trueorthodox.com/pictures/repulsejew.jpg)
[color=AF0000]THEN YOU HAVE[/color] Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL, who along with Eileen Hershenov, ADL’s [color=FF3300]policy director[/color] (https://www.adl.org/who-we-are/leadership/staff/eileen-hershenov) monitoring ‘online hate,’ [color=FF3300]oversees[/color] (https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-03/youtubes-new-adl-thought-police-punish-conservatives-while-giving-far-left-extremist) the censorship of YouTube.[/font][/size]
While claiming to protect the defamation of Jews he uses his role at YouTube to restrict legitimate concerns of whites and valid opposition to the genocidal deeds of Israel.
Is this not a two-sided determination whereby Greenblatt’s crooked mouth reveals an uneven polarity?
As for Eileen Hershenov, her visage exhibits a fanatical viciousness, and sadly, this malignity is used to censure, restrict, and ban all opinions on Google and YouTube that Hershenov the Jew disagrees with.
Is this why she looks so disagreeable?
This demonized fanatic sees everyone as a ‘nαzι’ except for the Jews.
(http://www.trueorthodox.com/pictures/hideousjewface1.jpg)
[color=AF0000]EXAMINE THE FACE[/color] of Steven Mnuchin of US Treasury. Again, the outward man reveals a parasitic inner psyche with the spirit of a bottom-feeding carp.
Can anyone say Mnuchin really works for a living?
While pretending to protect the hard-earned money of US taxpayers he instead upends our overseas trade by heaping sanctions upon sanctions on viable trading partners abroad. Is this not a clear case of deception that creates a contrary jaw?
There is also a peculiar deformity in his facial features as it is with many other Jews.
[color=AF0000]TAKE ADAM SCHIFF[/color] and Jerry Nadler as examples. One winces upon gazing (who can do it for any length of time?) on their faces, and a certain repulsion is registered within.
With Nadler, a gruesome hideousness is manifest which brings to the fore his ugly political maneuverings.
As for Schiff, with his bulging eyes and martian-like shape of his head, a particular revulsion lights upon the senses. Who is not revolted at his appearance? Who is not repulsed by his slithery methods we’re subjected to day after day in his Russiagate bullsh#t?
As for Daniel Schulman, [color=FF3300]owner[/color] (https://www.cnbc.com/video/2019/03/21/paypal-ceo-dan-schulman-explains-how-the-company-closed-the-pay-gap.html) of PayPal, who with his pinched, miserly facial features, he uses his payment services to ban those who don’t align with his promotion of sɛҳuąƖ deviancy—(Jews are the biggest [color=FF3300]pushers [/color] (http://www.realjewnews.com/?p=894)of ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity, lesbianism, and trans-genderism so as to destroy Christian social responsibility and morality)—a crookedness appears on his lower lip that unveils the perversity of his trajectory.
I wish I could be lovey-dovey but I refuse to give Jews a free pass.

Pretty soon after I started praying the rosary I started noticing things in people's appearance. I thought that I could judge people's characters by their faces and how they talked and moved and by looking at their eyes. I thought I could see their sins. It was terrifying as I live among Jews and sodomites. I thought I was seeing the demons in them and looked behind the mask. And sin is ugly.
Now I tend to see good in people, even Jews, and I am no longer overwhelmed by their sins (or their appearance which I thought signified their sins). I was just admiring how a young Jewess was walking down the street with her wallet on a string, holding a bag, in her long black skirt and a nice colored blouse. And I admired the way she did her hair in a ponytail. Where I live only the conservative Jєωιѕн women dress decently. I find the women to be beautiful when they are young, but it does not last like the beauty of virtuous people. Why does youth leave the wicked so quickly? Why do they have youth and beauty at all? Why are not the pagans and Jews born as old men and remain old and wrinkled and accursed until death comes or baptism cleans them from their sins?
But I have a very bad disposition of finding many young Jєωιѕн women to be beautiful. What could be more dangerous for a Catholic man than that? It is like wanting to marry a divorced woman. I know I can never marry a Jew. It would be like marrying a vampire. And if one converted how could I ever know if she was true? Should I pray to no longer find young Jewesses beautiful?

LOL... that "What Jєωιѕн Facial Features Reveal" article is RIGHT ON THE MONEY !!! So true.

The judaic physiognomy is a most interesting topic.
But what are the origins or the basis for that “Jєωιѕн look” ?
No doubt, the “Jєωιѕн look” is from their self-made curse at the time of Our Lord’s judgement before Pontius Pilate, that His blood be upon the jews and their children.
Blessed Anne Katherine Emmerich, who knew nothing about modern genetics said that, at the moment of the jews’s “Self-curse” she sensed that the Jews “changed to the marrow of their bones”.
So, without knowing it, Blessed Emmerich implied that the jews had changed genetically. In other words, their DNA had changed.
It seems this is why jews are obsessed with blood lines and why Jєωιѕн related men and women are always part of their cօռspιʀαcιҽs.
It’s the continuity of the curse.
One piece of supportive evidence for this is Father Amorth’s concern of family curses. He advises such inter-family curses are extremely dangerous.
Consider the long term impact of Noah’s curse against his children who mocked him?
So the “Jєωιѕн look” represents a double burden:
The jew needs the graces of the Holy Ghost to overcome Original Sin and the racial curse of Our Lord’s blood upon them.
Interesting too is how the jew and his minions mock the first Sacrament of water Baptism?
So, any jew you know who has truly converted is a walking miracle.
And they always need to be watched and guided, for fear of their sliding back to their rebellious ways.

How would that fit in with the Khazarian origins of so many modern Jews?

I thought that was debunked? It's true the Khazar Khanate converted to Judaism at one point, but I've heard that the theory that modern αѕнкenαzι Jews are primarily descended from them was disproven.
Seeing as there aren't many Steppe Jews running around today, it'd seem Khazarian Jews all either migrated and integrated into other Jєωιѕн populations or converted back.

Semites or Khazars—Who cares?
Who cares? Notwithstanding the ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan’s Master Race creed, there is no racial back door to Heaven and no racial chute to Hell. That said and as you would expect, the science and genealogy corroborate what Jesus said. The majority of “Jews” today are αѕнкenαzιm whose origins were in European Khazaria (see the map below). That most “Jews” today are of European lineage, not semitic at all, makes the ѕуηαgσgυє’s carnal “Abraham” claim even more laughable.

Here is an interesting paper studying mitochondrial DNA (mitochondrial DNA is inherited only from the mother, so its study is apropos their tribal obsession about who is and who is not “human” (http://judaism.is/who-is-human.html)in their view). The researchers are mostly of the genocidal tribe:
Thomas MG, Weale ME, Jones AL, Richards M, Smith A, Redhead N, Torroni A, Scozzari R, Gratrix F, Tarekegn A, Wilson JF, Capelli C, Bradman N, Goldstein DB.
Founding mothers of Jєωιѕн communities: geographically separated Jєωιѕн groups were independently founded by very few female ancestors (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC379128/pdf/AJHGv70p1411.pdf).
Am J Hum Genet. 2002 Jun;70(6):1411-20. Epub 2002 Apr 30.
Simplifying the distinctly technical language of their conclusion, the researchers found diversity of mitochondrial DNA slightly less than “host populations” (interesting choice of words on the researchers’ part, since “host” certainly suggests “parasite”), so they postulate several separate “founding events.” Then they note a special connection with the nation of Georgia (part of the former region of Khazaria). Hence, the αѕнкenαzιs are not semitic, only slightly less diverse than “host” populations, and do have genetics suggesting a slight preponderance of “founding” mothers from the region of Khazaria.

Yeah, but it was relevant to the posts on this topic regarding Jєωιѕн facial features.

If you read Anne Catherine Emmerich's account of the Passion of Christ, at the time Pilate asked the jews if they wanted to crucify their King? They replied "Yes, let His blood be upon us and our children". At this point, the Saint says she could not explain it, but she had realized the jews changed to the marrow of their bones.
This is the blood manufacturing center and it implies their DNA changed at the moment they cursed themselves.
So it seems the jews have something to hide in their DNA.
A final thought. Why would Our Lord call the jews "a race of vipers" ?
-
Yeah, but it was relevant to the posts on this topic regarding Jєωιѕн facial features.
Agreed. The relevant gravamen of the excerpt is that there is evidence (1) supporting the Khazar hypothesis and (2) the ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan has metastasized and interbred with host populations.

Just curious Mark if you know of any links to any public debates where the proposition is that non-Jews are subhuman. I don't suppose there are (since unless the rules were quite biased and the deck fully loaded the Joooz would get blown out of the water), but if anyone would know of any I imagine you could well be about the best person to ask.
Here is an excellent article (in addition to all the excellent material on Mark's site) on the subject and one quite helpful to one who would encounter the conventional Jєωιѕн denial of their history of considering and treating non-Jews as less than human: http://www.come-and-hear.com/editor/gentile.html (http://www.come-and-hear.com/editor/gentile.html)

There have been videos, but when they drew attention, like Chabad's "Kill even the best of the Gentiles," they were pulled down. Very few remain.
I have gotten tired of chasing videos on YouTube. Until I started replacing YouTube videos with the equivalent Bitchute and Archive videos, I would have to relink about two dozen videos per week.

Any and all converts to the Synagugue of Satan incur the same genetic, hence, spiritual curse that befell the Jews because of the events in Matthew 27:25. The pass it down to their offspring as long as they remain devoid of baptism into Jesus Christ. Notice I said genetic curse regarding the converts. For the Jews it's an entire racial curse that can only be lifted by baptism into Jesus Christ.
Dr. David Duke has a strong argument against the "Khazar theory" but, again, even if it were true, their ugly phenotype and spiritual wickedness is due to their conversion to the ѕуηαgσgυє.
