I was looking up Pope Jean Paul II because a few years ago there was a book written about him by a man who said he whipped himself with a leather belt regularly. Slawamir Oder is the man's name, he is apparently a Vatican insider who was in charge of gathering evidence of his saintliness so he could be canonized by the Catholic church. [Why He Is a Saint: The Life and Faith of Pope John Paul II and the Case for Canonization, Slawamir Oder]
Someone at my non-denominational Christian church was questioning a book I recommended she read, The Two Babylons, which is about idolatry and pagan practices adopted by the Roman Catholic church. I mentioned that he whipped himself with a leather belt, it was in the news (around January 2010). She doubted me, but I trust my memory, and came to the library today to look it up on the internet.
She seems to think it's a rumor, or reported by unreliable news agencies. There is a big scandal over Hilary Clinton's campaign manager, and his brother and friends reported to be involved in a pedophile ring. This scandal was relegated to the arena of "fake news", total unprovable lies. Even though apparently the guy (John Podesta) admitted to it. Wikileaks had gotten copies of his emails and published them, and it was about Spirit Cooking, which is just common code for Sex with Children. The man's friend (Jaime Enfante) owns a New York Pizzeria that advertises the game of ping pong is available for children to play with, it's oriented toward entertaining children and parents. There were all kinds of weird photos posted by "friends" of the restaurant, really weird stuff not appropriate for children or anyone.
The major news agencies called it "fake news" and beat it down. I think that is what is making her suspicious, she did not believe that Pope Jean Paul II did that. I am finding all the news is reported by legitimate news agencies, and I think it is true. The book that made this claim was put out to support his sainthood, the Catholic church supported it.
My point about this is that it is a continuation of the pagan practice of bloodletting (though in this case there was pain & maybe bruising, but not blood), and also in the Catholic Church there was bloodletting to add to Christ's blood, as though we needed this for salvation. THIS SELF ABUSE IS AN ADDICTION, DISTURBED PEOPLE CUT THEMSELVES AND DO THINGS LIKE THAT. This is more my point, finally. Lol, late and I have to go.
