"The Syllabus of Errors, issued by pope Pius IX in 1864, is still in full force where the Roman Church can enforce its will. The hierarchy in the United States plays down this Syllabus, and for many years has conducted a subtle campaign designed to hide many of its distinctive doctrines and so to gain the favor of the American public. But here are its claims in plain language..Some of its most distinctive articles in their affirmative form are:

15. "No man is free to embrace and profess the religion that he believes is true, guided by the light of reason."

17. "Eternal salvation outside the true church of Christ is not even to be hoped for."

18. "Protestantism is not another and diversified form of the one true Christian religion in which it is possible to please God equally as in the Catholic Church."

42. "In legal conflict between Powers (Civil and Ecclesiastical) the Ecclesiastical Law prevails."

45. "The direction of Public Schools in which the youth of Christian states are brought up...neither can nor ought to be assumed by the Civil Authority alone."

48. "Catholics cannot approve of a system of education for youth apart from the Catholic faith, and disjoined from the authority of the Church."

55. "The Church ought to be in union with the State, and the State with the Church." p. 25.

 

The Syllabus of Errors " forms part of the ordination vows of every Catholic priest in the world." p 26.

With the majority of Supreme Court Justices being Catholic, and with the majority of Congress being either Roman Catholic or catholic (universal) rather than protest for our Constitutional Bill of Rights that protect our freedoms, we are only a crisis away from losing everything our founding fathers fought and died for.

Consider these words penned prophetically 120 years ago, (like Noah's warning).

"The whole system of religious principles and doctrines, which should form the foundation and framework of society, seems to be a tottering mass, ready to fall. Courts of justice are corrupt. Jurists are perverted and bribed. Dishonesty of every sort is found among those who administer the laws. The vilest criminals, when thrown into prison, are often made the recipients of gifts and attentions, as if they had attained an enviable distinction. Great publicity is given to their character and crimes. The press publishes the revolting details of crimes committed, thereby initiating others into the practice of fraud, robbery, and murder. The infatuation of vice, the wanton taking of life, the staggering increase of addiction and wickedness of every order and degree, should arouse all who fear God, to inquire what can be done to stay the tide of evil."
