“At one time in Europe, the Images of Jesus Christ, and His Mother, were entirely Black. These SOBs changed all that.”
_________________________
On this day that Christians celebrate the Birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ, I am getting inundated with the devilish schemes of the Sixteenth Century Pope, Alexander, VI. He had a son, and his son’s name was Cesare Borgia. The very first thing that held me in awe…blown to pieces, while listening to the one telling me about Pope Alexander, VI, was that the corrupt practices of the Catholic Church, which I am a member and would remain so till the day I die, is that the Catholic Church has been corrupt; the organization played along with Pope Alexander’s evil machinations for almost five hundred years.
The Church never wavered in their newly formulated Spiritual disinformation and might have, inadvertently, agreed with the Pope’s hidden agenda to bury the true image of who Yeshua (Jesus Christ) is…to keep the business of enslaving blacks ongoing. If you looked at it through diamond prospector glasses, you would find why it was exceedingly so important to them to repaint and re-calligraph the once pristine Images of Jesus. What the Pope did was order Da Vinci and Michelangelo to redo…render all Images of Black Jesus all over Europe with the image of his crime-ridden son, Cesare Borgia. At one time in Europe…all of Europe, the Images of Jesus Christ, and His Mother, were entirely Black. These SOBs changed all that. Do you see why I am pulling my punches? Do you see why I wouldn’t turn my canons loose on vintage scatology to describe the Church and her evil deeds? Well, because the names Jesus, and of His Mother, Mary, are embedded deeply, heavily in this passage.
Consider this: From Mel Gibson’s Passion of The Christ to every other story ever told about Jesus and His Mother, Mary, and given that the filmmakers were all white and that not one among them went for the truth…went for the true image of Jesus Christ is disturbing. Not one. To be fair to these white authors and filmmakers, a good number of these misrepresentations were of books written by black people, too. Black people fell into this pit of absolute cow dung because they were mentally colonized and were made to believe that their Savior was a white man. That includes me in that filthy pot. Well as you can tell, I have since wiggled out of it. There had been hundreds, if not thousands of books written, and films made, depicting the life of Jesus and His Mother, missing in all of its archeological truths. Even by way of every oral tradition…including all artistic renditions…these filmmakers have never considered a scintilla of evidence as worthy of use in their representation of Jesus and His Mother, Mary. That’s why all over Africa, in every Church across the continent, you will not find the Images of Black Jesus Christ hanging on the crucifix in the very center of the alter where the Blessed Sacrament is Housed, nor would you find one on the Stations of the Cross. None. Yes, even across Africa, the Churches are littered with white effigies and statues of Saints, Angels, Jesus, and Mary, The Mother of God. All white. The Cistern Chapel included. We have been duped. We’ve been conned, and yes, we have been had. They are still ramming us, beating us down with these fallacies they know are lies. The white Christian fella is amazingly sleek. I’d give him that. And it all began with the insidious Pope Pius the Sixth and his masterful gamesmanship. Doesn’t the fact that Pope Alexander VI and his sexual encounters and assignations make the Church’s celibacy laws absolute nonsense?
Here’s my only consolation: This Pope Alexander VI is probably in Hell. I don’t have proof of that. But just by hoping that Dante Alighieri was right in his Divine Comedy book, Dante’s Inferno, I’d assume that one of the Popes he placed in the middle rungs of Hellfire, had to be Pope Alexander VI.
Even though I am a dyed-in-the-wool Catholic, I stopped going to Mass just so I don’t have to look up and stare at the wrong Image of Jesus. The blue-eyed, blond Jesus, for me, is offensive…at least, from what I know now. IF I AM WRONG, AND YOU ARE TRULY A WHITE MAN, LORD FORGIVE ME. IT IS THIS SOCIAL MEDIA THING. ABEG OOO!!!
