Appendix
2: Did the Roman Catholic Church invent Islam?
Alberto Rivera claimed that
he, a novice Jesuit priest, was allowed to roam through the Vatican basement,
picking through the treasures and secrets of the centuries, and he claimed that
Cardinal Bea, the Jesuit General, personally instructed him in the origin of Islam.
The claim he makes would take the story back to about 600 AD, but at that time
the Vatican didn't exist, and records for such a claim would not possibly exist.
Indeed,
the Vatican proper was not secured as a sovereign state until May 13, 1871. According
to Rivera, from vaults of the Roman Whore, and Cardinal Bea, comes the alleged
revelation that the Roman Catholic Church started Islam on purpose to take the
Arabs under their control, and to secure Jerusalem.
Dear friends, Satan is quite capable of starting an evil thing without the help
of the Roman Mother Church, helpful as she may have been to Satan. Rivera's publisher
also claims that Russian Communism was started by the Roman Catholic Church. Next,
will we be told that Sumer and the tower of Babel were in fact a diocese of Bishop
Fulton Sheen?
My research finds that Allah, and Islam, came along the roads from Babylon to
Mecca, and I found no detour by way of Rome. Indeed, the Roman Church got her
vile religion from Babylon, where Mohammed got his, but they were not in any league,
real or imagined. My bibliography for this is massive.
Alberto Rivera is promoting a lie, and his manner of conducting himself brings
into question whose side he is on. There is no confirmation, by Christians converted
from Jesuit Catholicism, of this man. If you distribute his stories (usually in
comic form), even those about his past in the Roman Church, you make a fool of
the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Arabs are not fools, and the Muslim Mullahs are not
ignorant of history. Beware.
FOOTNOTES TO THE ABOVE: I do not want to take the room to list the whole
number of each entry. I shall simply give my index numbers, and if you want the
bibliography kindly write or phone, and request it. My index has 109 separate
bibliographical entries that show that Rivera is promoting a lie. I shall only
list 31 here: 30, 69, 79, 115, 223, 312, 358, 363, 462, 487, 493, 602-603, 631,
638-9, 712, 893, 899, 955, 1333-4, 1338-9, 1344, 1348, 1349, 1402, 1443, 1480,
1505, 1542, 1550-2, 1594, 1685 & 87. Each number represents a distinct research
item.
