Pope is saying Xmas Eve Mass...St. Peter's Basilica has more gold than Fort Knox!

Hundreds of years of looting, pillaging, and money laundering has paid off for those crypto J's.

Wouldn't Jesus be proud...!

I was raised Catholic - priest in the family and all. When they wanted $500 to annul my marriage I walked out the door for the last time.

LOL!

But the scary things is, that's true.

Thanks for confirming for everyone what we already knew: You are NOT a player. You don't even know real history, only the mainstream indoctrination bullshit.

Goodnight, "Nikola!" LMAO!!

You fucking loser!!

I just watched Secrets of the Vatican. Here's the thing..those artifacts are cultural/historical works of art. You don't just melt down priceless cultural artifacts. That stuff does not represent liquidity. I'm not saying the Vatican doesn't have stores of wealth.. but you don't go on ebay and sell off historical treasures.

Well stated point.

I get that.

I guess the question is why do they have those artifacts, the gold and the art? That's a rhetorical question.

Well.. during the Renaissance there was a lot of corruption. The papal seat was a coveted position for the sons of wealth aristocracy. The church collected taxes, sacked Jerusalem and other areas, and built up enormous wealth. Surprisingly, most of it was plundered at the turn of the century, and they lost most of it at that time. It's been built back up since. There are discussions of Nazi gold there too.

If you google the words vatican gold artifacts you can do your own research. The intriguing question is whether there is a hoard of gold coinage or bars.

fort knox has -16 trillion in gold.

That's very unsettling. I can see them having things from the Renaissance but to know they keep accumulating it and may have hidden stores of it - begs the question "WHY?" Are they saving for a rainy day?

Like the previous poster said, it takes a lot of money to rule the world.

Sick. Truly.

Not really.Last Iread there is really NO gold there.
A lot of things have disappeared from many places if it was ever there to start with

Rulers over a period from Nebucadnezzar's time to our time have been the people's choice, an experiment to show that it has been a proven failure, under which all Popes with its regime fall under = gold, power and fame, daring to use the name of Christianity to enslave the world, misrepresenting Christianity altogether, a mega crime and mega fraud where all its ownership is a first class theft, it does not belong to them on these grounds, whereas, God's choice of prophets for the people is fool proof, these are the real leaders they are not rulers - big difference, and ownership is authentic as it is Blessed by God! The statue's feet made of iron and clay in Daniel's dream which was smashed to smithereens by a Stone, has already taken place, Eisenhower and Stalin - their kingdoms USA/RUSSIA smashed into powder Personally by Jesus/Messiah Himself Who is God Almighty, in a supernatural event of His second return - Thief in spiritual darkness, causing the expiry of all world systems, religious and political. So when you see the Pope and the world's deceit by its rulers, you are seeing a heap of ashes, the living dead, they are empty vessels now possessed by Satan, Satan incarnate, the apocalypse within them making war with God's saints and God Almighty making war with them, the Armegeddon ! Whatever the Vatican owns it is all 100% fraud as they used Christianity as their cover under which they hid themselves ! It can all be reclaimed ! Jesus was never a retard, the way Catholism portrayed him to be, Jesus/Messiah destroyed Catholism in a supernatural event at His Second Return witnessed in heaven, on earth and in hell !

I woke up last night and noticed the pope on tv sprinkling water onto dolls and stuffed animals at the Christ nativity scene(weird), then he got into a chariot of some sort with guys walking in front like reindeer.

Then I realized how sane I really am.

Who would want to do that?
