Knights of Columbus – Tax Free Catholic Cult – Fronting a Multi-Billion Dollar Insurance Company


K of C Fish Fry - Tax Free Cash for Charity and the Vatican Bank?

Bishop Lori, Chaplain of a tax free 501(c)(8) “fraternal organization” that does not have to pay taxes on:
…their support for the Church and local communities, as well as for their philanthropic efforts, the Order often refers to itself as the "strong right arm of the Church". The Order's insurance program has more than $80 billion of life insurance policies in force, backed up by $15.5 billion in assets, and holds the highest insurance ratings given by A. M. Best and the Insurance Marketplace Standards Association, though Standard & Poor's downgraded the program to AA+ in August 2011.
Tax free American dollars that:
The Order funded the first renovation of the façade of St. Peter's Basilica in over 350 years. (your siphoned off tax dollars at work)


Charity begins at home or St. Peter’s Square.  The Knights distribute over $150 million in “charity” annually like its construction project in Rome. (No bid contracts to Bertone's crony family?)

Of course all this fraternal organization stuff started with the immigrants and no government social safety nets.  Life insurance was the only guarantee that your family might eat on a regular basis after you died back in the good old days…

But that was a century and more ago. Now you can get IRAs and a 401(k)? through this catholic fraternal order/financial services company, structured on a management level much like the Masons with its secret ritual ceremonies, exclusion of women from first class membership in the organization, and various degrees of rank. The Catholic Masons?


And the organization is protected from that mean old putty tat government by its tax status.

The cult part is over a million members doing volunteer community service work to qualify the organization as a fraternal group, the members not being paid and let's not forget to mention the low paying, few benefits, female jobs processing the insurance end of the tax scam.

Bishop Lori and his Fortnight of Freedom campaign is organized around the K of C membership in 15,000 councils nationwide including the infamous college council 1477 organizing other groups on campus and working so hard to snub Obama at Notre Dame in 2009.

Of course, the Knights are not funding political activities in Bishop Lori’s and the USCCB’s two week rant against Obamacare and if the local bonfires of the bishops’ vanities with Bishop Lori's GOP political activities take place at Knights of Columbus weekly Steak Frys or Fish Frys for “charity” it is only coincidence. Yeah right. LOL

Cult. Cult. Cult. Cash. Cash. Cash. (Tax Free. Tax Free. Tax Free.)

And one other thing.  The Knights of Columbus Insurance/Tax Free Cash Machine is joined I believe at the hip to the Vatican Bank.


As for Supreme Knight Carl Anderson, regarding his salary running K of C, I see this figure quoted on the Internet as $1,167,721. annual which was originally posted in 2008. That I don't think includes the Limo, Jet, Villa in Rome, which leads to a question only the pope knows. What is Carl Anderson's other salary as one the four board members overseeing the Vatican Bank? And is there any conflict of interest involved?

Have a nice day.

Vatican Bank West? New Haven, Connecticut

Bishop Lori’s Pagan Fortnight for Freedom Festivities Commence – (bonfires, s'mores, burning crosses?)



Starting today, within the twenty-four hour threshold of the Summer Solstice, a millennial old Pagan Holiday, the Bishops of the U.S., USCCB, are sponsoring a Fortnight of Religious Freedom (Bund) activities.

One has to wonder why holidays and important events in the RCC seem to always be secretly linked to Ancient Pagan Festivals.

No doubt the education of potential novitiates standing around pagan bonfires of the latest Stealth Hate Festival against “that Negro in the White House” will have a moderate amount of success to reinforce the base racial fear instincts of many dumbed down A-mericans.

What the pure Catholics do in the dark after these night time rallies and activities is anybody’s guess.

Most pure Pagan post-holiday festival activities, connected to bonfires and alignments of the Moon and Sun, have to do with some real time fucking (with condoms aka contraception).  

Too bad the Catholic Bishops are “celibate”.  Yeah right.

Whatever.

Dr. Matthew Harrison LCMS’ Penis is so Small…



…he has to sit next to Bishop Lori on Capitol Hill to feel like a really big guy.
Gosh Matt, you don’t have to sit next to a RC Princess to get a hard on, just keep preaching your anti-female hate in your Lutheran Church Missouri Synod Churches on Sundays.
Governor Jan Brewer is President of the Matt Harrison Fan Club and falls on every hate filled word that falls from your lips. 
“Oh Matt, you are so BIG to me…”  “Love, Jan”

All male expert Capitol Hill panel on female issues
Gov. Jan Brewer signed into law late Friday a bill that bans the state or any local government from using public money to contract with an organization that includes abortions in its services.
The governor’s signature on House Bill 2800 comes on the heels of her approval last month of a bill that bans abortions after 20 weeks.
Brewer signed the measure while speaking at a reception for the Susan B. Anthony List, a group devoted to helping elect anti-abortion officials to public office.
“This is a common-sense law that tightens existing state regulations and closes loopholes in order to ensure that taxpayer dollars are not used to fund abortions, whether directly or indirectly,” Brewer said in a statement. “By signing this measure into law, I stand with the majority of Americans who oppose the use of taxpayer funds for abortion.”

USCCB – Bully Pulpit – U.S. Catholic Bishops - Lobbying War on Women and Gays continues…$$$ 26 millions worth

(Father Charles Coughlin Bishop William Lori)

$26,000,000 in bribes, fees paid by the USCCB, U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, is a lot of chump change, a lot of little old ladies’ dollar bills in the collection plate on Sunday, to lobby Congress with in the ongoing discriminatory war on women and war on gays. 

Recently, I took note of a back-and-forth between Michael Sean Winters and Tom Roberts at National Catholic Reporter, in which Roberts calls into question a persistent meme of Winters' reporting on behalf of the U.S. Catholic bishops.  Roberts notes that Winters's defense of the bishops depends on asserting and re-asserting that Catholics are under "attack" today in secular culture, and that anti-Catholicism in American culture lingers on and feeds the "attacks" Catholics are experiencing. 
Roberts doubts the viability of this meme of anti-Catholic attack when, as he notes, Catholics are "liberally sprinkled" all through "the most powerful quarters" of the nation's political and economic life.  And when the Supreme Court is dominated by (conservative) Catholics.
And now this piece of information comes down the pike, and I think it's going to be even harder for the U.S. Catholic bishops and their centrist spokespersons to keep the victim meme alive: the Pew Forum has just released a report showing that the USCCB ranks number two of all faith-based lobbying groups in D.C., with $26,662,111 (and see Kevin Clarke at America on the Pew report) spent on lobbying activities in 2009.  That's a hefty chunk of change for a victimized little old minority group suffering societal persecution to have at its disposal to try to wheedle and cajole legislators to do its faith-based bidding.


Men Behind the War on Women
A group of men with no real background in law or medicine, but blessed with a strong personal interest in women’s bodies, have quietly influenced all of the major anti-abortion legislation over the past several years. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops may be one of the quietest, yet most powerful lobbies on Capitol Hill, with political allies that have enabled them to roll back decades of law and precedent.
Over the past two years the GOP-controlled House of Representatives has launched one of the most extreme assaults on women's choice the U.S. has seen in decades. Republicans voted twice to slash federal family planning funds for low-income women, moved to prevent women from using their own money to buy insurance plans that cover abortion, introduced legislation that would force women to have ultrasounds before receiving an abortion and, most recently, passed a bill that will allow hospitals to refuse to perform emergency abortions for women with life-threatening pregnancy complications.
But the erosion of women's rights didn't begin with the GOP takeover. President Barack Obama's health care reform law contained some of the most restrictive abortion language seen in decades.
 Lift the curtain, and behind the assault was the conference of bishops.
 In the 1930s, Catholic demagogue Father Charles Coughlin never dreamed of the power that the RCC in America now has, can acquire simply by buying it, here in the future.


But beware bishops:

“St. Irenaeus of Lyon warned early Christians that we’ve been sent like sheep into the midst of wolves. The moment we become wolves ourselves, we lose.” - - Bp. Charles Chaput

Catholic Sharia Upheld Wash.,D.C. - Cardinal Wuerl Lawsuit - Separation of Sexes - Discrimination Muslims

Interesting article about a discrimination lawsuit down in D.C. regarding separation of the sexes:
The D.C. Office of Human Rights (OHR) has dismissed the complaint filed by George Washington University law professor John F. Banzhaf III in response to The Catholic University of America’s single-sex housing policy, affirming the University’s position that the law does not require men and women to be housed together in residence halls. 
and discrimination against Muslims at Catholic University.  Yeah their tuition money is good but they just don't understand that minorities in America are supposed to keep their heads down and suck it up.
Banzhaf’s complaint about single sex residence halls is the first of two that he has lodged this year against the University. He filed a second complaint in October against Cardinal Donald Wuerl, archbishop of Washington and University chancellor, charging that Catholic University has been engaging in discrimination against its Muslim students. The University has yet to receive any official notification from the OHR that it intends to move forward with adjudicating the second complaint.
Like Bishop Lori has said, this "Religious Liberty" culture war to establish Catholic Sharia in the U.S. has come into the legal stages of the battle of that war.

Whatever.

Have a nice day.

National Morality Tax on Abortion – National American Identity Card – Proposed Lori/Franks Bill

(tax stamp)
The assault on Religious Freedom, Religious Liberty, Religious Safety or whatever else as it is called or might be called in the future; I propose a balancing act, a means to pay for the madness.
All this whining and paranoia in the media about the secular reality intruding with sunshine onto the dark shadow lands of superstition “I want a free lunch on the Government’s dime” religious groups, NPOs and tax free religious agenda think tanks/poll enablers, here is a compromise.
Since what these religions want is for the government to control the inmates in their own share of Bedlam turf, I propose a morality tax kickback to the government in return for their sponsorship of the envisioned (by me) Congressman Trent Franks of Arizona legislation to design and execute the new American National Identity Card.
On that proposed National Identity Card is already a designated spot for Country of Birth.  Next to the spaces for RACE of yourself, your parents and your grandparents, I propose a place for one’s Religion.  Actually two spots.  One for Religion at Birth and one for Current Religion.  This is after all necessary to divvy up this new morality tax sharing with the States.
So the next time an abortion is found out, spied on, reported by the stalking public citizen safety committees on morality, about a disloyal American citizen, a Vagina Terrorist, all assets of that individual will be confiscated and returned to the state for the costs of healthcare, incarceration for this person to be examined and also to be sterilized so that she can never have another abortion ever.  Sounds reasonable. Right?  
Hate the Sin. Forgive the Sinner. Prevent the future Sin (medically). Amen
It is for the woman’s own good that she never sin against the Christian god again and or the Roman Catholic Church or the Baptists god, Mormons god etc.
Now here comes the good part.  Since this sinning worthless piece of shit female has found an abortion place somewhere here or Canada or Mexico, I propose a million dollar tax kickback to the government from the churches that did not teach her properly on her morality and civic duty according to her religion.
If she is both born and currently Roman Catholic, the RC church must be fined a full $ 1 million morality tax fine so in order to pay for the government and its vast bureaucracy to police American life, media and privacy looking for people attacking Roman Catholic Freedom, Liberty, Safety or whatnot.
Here is the fair part of the Proposed Lori/Franks Bill of Public Religious safety that includes the new national identity card and DNA sample.  If the sinner was born a Catholic and is now a Baptist, the million dollar government fine is split between the two offending teaching institutions of morality for not indoctrinating their members properly.  You’ve got to be properly taught.
It is only fair that the funding for witch hunts and making everybody else in America conform to Catholic Sharia law help defray expenses in this protecting of the Racket church business in America. But you Baptists and Mormons, don’t get paranoid about the Catholic Sharia Law thing.  The country on the map will have designated Sharia Primary Law areas or turfs.  Utah, Nevada and parts of California, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Idaho with be Mormon Sharia primary turf. 
Baptist Sharia Law territory is all across the old Confederacy.  The Catholics have the Northeast, Midwest and all other parts west are up for grabs, bid and or compromise negotiated for said disputed turf. It’s a definite Win Win for religious institutions.
With a new national flat income tax 999 (666), the churches will also be entitled to more tax breaks, a flat payout from the treasury to salaries for clerics, church building projects, schools, nursing homes, hospitals, Religiously owned or shareholder controlled Healthcare Insurance Companies and any other related church business, factories, warehouses, import-export, or banking entities.
There are those who say that the American Church businesses and rackets have got it pretty good right now and should just leave well enough alone.  Why get greedy-greedier?  I say - Go for it boys!  All or Nothing!

Defining Terms - ChristoFascism - ProLife - Bishop Lori - Trent Franks


Bishop Inquisitor Bill Lori of Connecticut testified before a sweetheart congressional committee to describe the erosion of “religious freedom” caused by Obama and his department of HHS etc.


Bishop to Congress: Religious freedom subject to 'rapid erosion'


Among the policies and laws Lori singled out were:
  • A U.S. Department of Health and Human Services mandate that health insurance plans cover contraceptives and sterilization as "preventative services" in health care plans.
  • A new requirement from the same department that government contracts to those who provide services to victims of human trafficking only go to those that provide contraceptive and abortion services. Lori says that requirement assures that the bishops' Migration and Refugee Services "will be barred from participation in the program."…
  •  Among the bills Lori said Congress should pass are the "Protect Life Act," which passed the House on Oct. 13, and the "Respect for Rights of Conscience Act."
  • The "Protect Life Act" would prohibit women covered under the health care reform law from buying health insurance plans that cover abortion and would make it legal for hospitals to deny abortions to pregnant women with life-threatening conditions. The "Respect for Rights of Conscience Act" would allow certain religiously affiliated institutions to opt out of other coverage requirements in the reform bill.
Follow the money.  If you want to destroy the power of these gay bashing, vagina hating, pedophile enabling money men, the pro-life bishops, don’t call them what they want to be called “Pro-Life” – what life, they are more like criminals than holy men. 
Don’t confuse terms.  Christo fascism accurately describes the ongoing crime of Bishops in bed with Big Money and Corporations, a term I think that might confuse the public. A new user friendly term to help enlighten the public is needed to shed light on these covert crimes involving gross conflicts of interest combining politics, religion and unregulated greed. 
They, Big Money and Corporations, control the media and they want to confuse us.   Presently they seem to be interchanging two terms Religious Freedom or Religious Liberty looking for the perfect final sell, marketing term, to push this new culture war idea. Power is the name of the game - not Religion - freedom and liberty are merely just add-on chump words I believe. Think about it, especially the next time the media throws these mind game words/terms at you.
The big money boys and politicos did the same thing with the terms Climate Change vs. Global Warming.  I am still confused. Not really, but it took a long time for me to focus on the heart of the problem.  Now it is too late I fear regarding that likely doomsday scenario. Whatever.
Am waiting to see what official title Tim Dolan finally chooses for this new emergency profits for the Health Care Industrial Complex ad hoc committee and at what point in the 2012 election produces that final term as a code word for non-truth. This new USCCB committee - on Religious Safety (my term) was recently formed.


Follow the money.


Lori was not testifying about religion.  He actually was mostly testifying about medical procedures in front of Rep. Franks of Arizona, a freakin Evan Mecham appointee, hack toadie - Racist Evan Mecham, such a failed Arizona Governor that even the Rednecks cheered when they impeached his sorry ass out of Phoenix - for Christ’s sake! - and Trent Franks, oil man and shill for a half dozen money laundering non-profit right wing political think tanks and ignorance enabling culture war agenda groups.

Back to Lori, Bishop in the Health Insurance Headquarter Capital of the Universe / Connecticut…follow the money?
Anybody notice how some Prostate screening tests are being discounted recently by Federal Committees and will soon disappear or how women “don’t need” so many Mammograms as announced by Federal Committees­ etc.?  Follow the money.
Follow the money.  Indict some, many more “pro-life” crooks, religious and secular, under R.I.C.O. laws. 
Have a nice day.
