Quote from: "Herman"
Quote from: "SCOUSE"So you think Jews should be allowed to monopolise the media, academia, banking and other influential sectors of society?



History tells us otherwise.....

I thought this thread was about the Byzantine empire. I have been fascinated with it for over twenty years. I can recommend some books if you like.

Books? You are so silly



Everyone knows any high school dropout guy doing a phone video for Utube  from his mom's dining room table is more creditable

Still ducking, diving and dodging certain uncomfortable questions put to you I see. Very telling indeed, and don't for a second think I'm the only person to have picked up on this...

Actually the JQ is pivotal to the reason behind my motivation for posting the thread in the first place.

Quote from: "Fashionista"Here are five facts about the business of the Catholic church.



1.The Vatican Bank has $8 billion in assets

The Vatican Bank, which has about $8 billion in assets, has often been at the center of scandal and corruption since it was founded in 1942. Pope Benedict began the process of cleaning the bank up, and Francis has continued that work.



Vatican Bank accounts are only supposed to be held by residents of Vatican City and church personnel. But according to Gerald Posner, a Vatican bank scholar and the author of "God's Bankers," these accounts were often awarded to powerful Italian officials looking to stash money without paying taxes.



The bank closed over 4,000 accounts to weed out corruption and currently has a total of 33,400 accounts.



2. The Vatican had over €1.1 billion off its balance sheet

The Vatican is a separate entity from the Vatican bank, and underwent its own clean up last year.



When it released its 2014 financial statements in July, the Vatican said it had more than €1.1 billion ($1.2 billion) in assets that weren't previously on the balance sheet.



The Vatican has two main entities. The Holy See, which governs the Catholic Church and the Vatican City State, which governs Vatican City.



The Holy See reported a deficit of €25.6 million ($27.9 million) in 2014, even though it received over €50 million from the Vatican Bank. Its biggest expense last year was paying its 2,880 employees a total of €126.6 million.



The Vatican City State is responsible for running the Vatican Museums and in 2014 had a surplus of €63.5 million -- nearly double what it was the year before.



3. The Sistine Chapel is for rent - kind of

In October 2014, the Sistine Chapel was rented out for the first time to the automaker Porsche.



Forty Porsche fans paid $5,900 to attend a gala under Michelangelo's famed painted ceiling as part of Pope Francis' Art for Charity project.



Whereas the average visitor is permitted only a short stay in the chapel, for fear of damage to the frescoes, the Porsche guests were treated to a private choral concert and a dinner in the exhibit.



4. It costs how much to become a saint?!

It's not cheap to get a priest canonized. To wit: The Our Lady of Victory National Shrine & Basilica in Lackawanna, New York, has raised over $250,000 in an effort to canonize its former priest, Father Nelson Baker.



5. Tourism in Vatican City has tripled under Pope Francis

Tourism under Pope Francis has nearly tripled since he replaced Pope Benedict in March of 2013.



Over 12 million visitors have flocked to the Vatican for events featuring Pope Francis. And those figures don't even include the attendance for Pope Francis events that were held outside of the Vatican -- that tacks on another nearly 13 million visitors.



Pope Benedict received some 20.5 million visitors during his tenure from 2005-2013.


Once the Vatican's role in smothering complaints of abuse by it's priests was revealed, ALL assets of the Church should have been seized, and substantial reparations paid to the victims of that abuse. Church business assets should have be stripped as proceeds of crime.



It's time to make Churches accountable for their crimes.

So, is anyone here willing to discuss why CC always avoids criticising anything Kosher?



The Federal Reserve bankster racket is common knowledge among most intelligent folk and difficult to ignore even for the most staunch of pro Jewish types, so why is the subject continually ignored on here?  ac_dunno

Bricktop

Because whilst the Fed Reserve is widely regarded as a Ponzi scheme that scams the American taxpayer out of billions, it's relationship to Jewish control it's not established. Nonetheless, there IS an argument, I grant thee.

Aryan

I await CC's Kosher approved response.  :ththbored:

On the subject of the JQ, yes it most definitely is......

The Vatican is the only country in Europe with official diplomatic relations with Taiwan....money of course is the reason..



Many of the things that  SCOUSE blames all Jews for can be attributed to Rome.
