The Vatican's Words of God
The Holy See Knows All
FRIDAY THE 13th [1307]
In 1208 Pope Innocence III established the practice of Inquisition by attacking a group of Heretics known as Cathars. Cathars were a Christian sect in southwest France who followed different beliefs than the Vatican. They were Gnostics and vegetarians, did not believe in killing anything “made by God” and preached peace and tranquility. They would not participate in the Vatican Eucharist citing they would not eat a dead man’s flesh nor drink his blood.
On 22 July 1209 the Pope’s Crusaders began the “Cathar Massacre”, eventually killing tens of thousands of Cathars, Catholics and any Jews who were in the neighborhood. The Pope had declared the “Jews bore the Mark of Cain”, which made them Satan’s disciples.
As I researched this era of the Church, I was surprised to find that any reference to Freemasons in the modern transcripts of Papal Buls was omitted. The original Freemason reference was replaced with “Heretic”. This is done in current history postings. The Period writings do not omit Freemasons because they were the Primary target even in the Cathar Massacres. My point is, do not rely on current documents alone if you research. Find the original documents and several sources before you decide what may be the truth.
The Knights Templars were Freemasons and were the Pope’s Crusaders beginning in the 1st Crusade of 1095. The open killing of Cathars intensified until the Inquisitions of 1260 into the 1300s under Pope Clement V finally ended the religious movement. When the Knights Templars refused to kill the French citizens, who were Cathars, they were excommunicated and listed in an Inquisition Bul as heretics.
King Philippe IV and Pope Clement V were both heavily indebted to the Templars through borrowing to continue lavish living standards. They were also in debt to the Templars from funding various “Crusades”.
The Crusades have been well published and I will not spend a lot of time on this history. It is full of stories about how the Templars made their fortunes during the Crusades by establishing the first “banking system”. For a fee, the Templars would hold money for travelers going to the “Holy Land” and provide them with an account which they could draw from once there. It was much more secure than traveling with your gold in a sack and the possibility of being robbed.
Pope Clement V issued the Papal Bul Pastoralis Praeeminentiae. The Templars’ Grand Master, Jacques de Molay, was arrested on charges of heresy, sacrilege and Satanism. Under torture, Molay and other leading Templars confessed and were eventually burned at the stake.
On October 13, [a Friday] 1307 King Philippe IV began arresting and killing Knights Templars because Pope Clement V had declared the Order to be Heretical and servants of Satan. All wealth and property of the Templars was seized by the King and the Vatican. Of course, the Templars were also protecting valued ancient knowledge and had removed considerable wealth, documents and artifacts prior to the date of the attack.
