THE DAUGHTERS OF THE DEVIL (part one of two)

 

According to history, as taught in the west, Christopher Columbus discovered America in 1492.  The logic of this is illusive because we know that no European  people would accept that, the Aztecs, the Maya, the Inca or any of the Original Tribes of this land, had discovered Europe, if they were to have sailed to a populated Europe and established a history that gave them credit for discovering it.  We are taught, though, that Columbus came to a land that was already occupied; and, the history is written to say that he discovered that land?  Though much can be written of how ridiculous that really is, I will have to do that in a future writing, because it would seem that the people that were here when he got here were the ones who had discovered this land..  The issue at hand here is the document called the MANIFEST DESTINY, the sperm for the birth of one of the devil’s daughters.

The ideas contained in the Manifest Destiny are rooted in the (approximate) 579 writings of several popes in what is commonly called Papal Bulls, but their collective doctrine is the Doctrine of Discovery, which is the source of Manifest Destiny. The term Manifest Destiny was coined in 1845 by Newspaper columnist, John O’ Sullivan, in his article “Annexation” written for the July–August 1845 issue of the Democratic Review.  The Manifest Destiny is the thinking that promoted, and justified, the wanton slaughter of the original tribes such as, the Aztecs; the Maya; and the Incas of the land; they claimed Columbus to have discovered.  The connection was begun 40 years prior to Columbus’ voyage.  Pope Nicholas decreed a Papal Bull regarding King Alfonso V of Portugal.  It was titled:  Romanus Pontifex.  Its contents were that all non-Christians anywhere in the world were enemies to the Church and should be warred upon.  These wars included colonizing defeated nations and taking all rights to their lands and the natural resources of the lands.

King Alfonso, following the directions of Pope Nicholas, captured the defeated Saracens, pagans and Muslims, confiscated their land and property.  The Portuguese following this papal decree expanded the arm of the church by colonizing the western coast of Africa and trafficking African slaves, all in the name if Christ. This is the attitude of Columbus in his voyages.  By the original


Tribes of this land were not being Christian, he was authorized by the Papal Bull of Pope Nicholas to judge their lands as “discovered” and take them.  Upon his return he was given more authority by the Inter Cetera which was the Papal Bull

issued by Pope Alexander VI in 1493, granted Spain the right to ownership of the lands which Columbus “discovered”.

In the process of all of this “discovering” and conquering, some of the most uncivilized and inhuman acts of genocide was inflicted upon the original inhabitants of the lands now being taken, by claiming these lands to have been discovered by Columbus.  Behind all of this was the authority allotted to the invaders by the Papal Bull decrees of the church.  These documents were referred to and recited as justification for the inhuman slaughter of the original tribes and the brutal colonization of their lands.  Based on these Christian writings, which even included, as in the “Law of Nations”, that Christian Nations had a biblical established divine right to establish their rule and use for themselves of the lands of all non-Christians.

This religious attitude of establishing full authority of the people and land of non-Christians was enacted into American law in 1823 as the legal act to totally deprive the original people of this land any rights over themselves or their land.

America was established based on the idea that the invaders had a God-given right to this land and that those who had been living on it for generations were to be removed or slaughtered and it was all justified according to the Christian doctrines and beliefs.

A little over a hundred years later that same process would be fulfilled with different documents and a different religion.

Modern Zionism began in 1561 when Yasef Nasi advocated the resettlement of the Jewish people from the lands of Tiberias and Safed to the lands of Palestine.
