Jesus taught his followers that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven. Yet by the fall of Rome, the church was becoming rich beyond measure.

"Da qualche tempo sto scartabellando nuovi documenti riservati, intercettazioni delle procure italiane e straniere, atti di commissioni internazionali. Sto incontrando preti e monsignori che mi raccontano che, oltre agli scandali economici, non sono finiti nemmeno quelli sessuali. Che gli abusi sui più piccoli non sono affatto un fenomeno superato, e che nei primi tre anni di pontificato di Bergoglio sono arrivate alla Congregazione per la dottrina della fede 1200 denunce di molestie 'verosimili' su ragazzini e ragazzine di mezzo mondo."

"Les Figures du Tarot". Roys, Reynes, Cavaliers et Valets sont les quatre Figures (ou Honneurs) du jeu de Tarot. Tous les autres jeux existants n'en comportent que deux ou trois. Si, à la table de jeu, les quatre Honneurs sont hiérarchisés comme une sorte de famille où le Valet serait le cadet, le Cavalier l'aîné, et le couple royal les parents, il en va tout autrement de leur interprétation dans le Tarot initiatique.

Thomas Paine's The Age of Reason; Being an Investigation of True and Fabulous Theology, published in three parts from 1794, was a best seller in America, where it caused a short-lived deistic revival. Promoting a creator-God while advocating reason in the place of revelation, Paine’s controversial pamphlet caused his native British audience, fearing the results of the French Revolution, to receive it with more hostility than their American counterparts.

This extraordinary document represents a new form of historical research and straightens out many open questions and misinterpretations. It takes the form of direct dialogues between a modern researcher and a member of the Qumran Essene community.

The average Christian in America does not know what his own religion teaches, nor does he care. He may call himself “Christian”, but he lives his life exactly as he wishes, making no attempt to conform his conduct to the commands and tenets of his religion.
