BOOK
REVIEW: 'THE PAPAL BILLIONS'
BY TONY BUSHBY
by
Kentroversy
The
fifth book in the religion
series by Australian author
Tony Bushby focuses on
the financial corruption
of the Vatican, which
has been substantial and
much worse than I had
ever imagined.
The
fifth book in Tony Bushby's
'Truth Behind the Christian
Religion' series is his
hardest hitting book yet.
THE PAPAL BILLIONS which
was published in February
2008, reveals the sordid
details of Vatican corruption.
What Bushby covered in
his first four books in
his series -- THE BIBLE
FRAUD, THE SECRET IN THE
BIBLE, THE CRUCIFIXION
OF TRUTH, and THE TWIN
DECEPTION -- covered details
of the Biblical texts
and the theology of the
Christian religion itself.
Having read all four of
these books, I can honestly
say that that these four
books, in their exact
1,303 pages, have sufficiently
crucified the mythology
of the Christian religion,
just as the wholly mythological
'Jesus Christ' was himself
said to be crucified 2000+
years ago.
In
THE PAPAL BILLIONS, Bushby
uncovers the Vatican corruption
that had been previously
rumored for many years
in conspiracy research
circles, but no one seemed
to want to numerate and
expose -- for fear of
reprisal, perhaps? The
Catholic Church is so
money-centric that it
became personally offensive
to me, particularly two
incidents, which in their
culmination lead to my
leaving the Church altogether
upon the event of my eighteenth
birthday.
What
happened was that I received
a box of weekly tithing
donation envelopes in
the mail from my local
parish priest, Father
Pat. He had sent me a
birthday gift, I thought,
rather naively. It, at
first, seemed to be a
nice gesture. That was,
until I actually opened
the box, and saw what
was inside. When I saw
what was actually inside
the box, I immediately
phoned Father Pat, explaining
that I had recently entered
college earlier that fall,
and I wasn't making enough
money at my part-time
job to donate/tithe of
my salary to the Church,
which obviously didn't
need my money anyway.
The
opulence and and beauty
of Church properties attested
to and reinforced the
fact that they would have
clearly survived WITHOUT
my money!! This incident
lead to an argument between
myself and Father Pat
-- which I found to be
repugnant and highly distasteful,
that I ended up leaving
the Church altogether
-- leaving to pursue my
own path of spiritual
growth -- which empowered
me and gave me a true
sense of purpose, instead
of the Church training
me to become afraid of
death and their vengeful
creator, whom they deign
to call their own GOD.
The
second incident came a
few years later, and was
far more distasteful than
the incident described
immediately above. What
happened was this:
An
aunt of my girlfriend
at the time, a nice young
woman named Kim, had been
extremely ill and had
a serious operation and
almost died. As a result,
she was in the hospital
and convalescing at home
for over four months of
the year 1985, with some
of that time spent in
I.C.U. near death. I had
met this woman and was
told about the following
experience at a holiday
Christmas party that I
attended with my girlfriend
Kim. The aunt had shown
me an INVOICE which she
was sent by her priest,
in the amount of her weekly
donation, multiplied over
the four months that she
was absent from weekly
mass. The line item on
this INVOICE stated that
she was being billed for
something called PEW RENTAL.
And, at the bottom of
the INVOICE were the following
words:
"The
FULL AMOUNT must be paid
within 30 days, or 1.5%
interest will be assessed
per month, not to exceed
an 18% annual interest
rate.
I
simply could NOT believe
that they had the audacity
to send something like
this to a woman who nearly
died just a little while
earlier! Unbelievable!
This
aunt was incensed, and
furious with her priest,
whom she called immediately
upon opening the envelope,
and reading the invoice
inside. She ended up getting
into a bit of an argument
with her priest, who she
said became quite belligerent
and argumentative with
her, even in her deteriorated
condition. To make a long
story short, this aunt
of my girlfriend Kim ended
up leaving the Church
before she hung up the
telephone on the day she
spoke with her priest
about the insulting INVOICE
he had been responsible
for sending her. I applauded
her decision to do do,
and I told her so right
on the spot!
I
held this INVOICE in my
hands, and if I had not
done so, I might never
have believed this woman's
story. My only regret
was that I was never able
to secure a photocopy
of this document for my
own research files. This
was 1985, before the ubiquity
of the personal computer,
where I would have been
able to easily get a photocopy
for my records. Hearing
this story of my girlfriend's
aunt helped me to feel
that I made the right
decision about leaving
the Catholic Church for
good -- and I have never
looked back in anger.
The
corruption of the Catholic
Church is the reason why
it has become the most
valuable institution of
any kind on the entire
planet -- and it is literally
worth TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS
-- in spite of their claims
of budget deficits and
and other financial shortfalls
-- especially in the collection
of members' weekly donations.
The Popes; such as John
Paul I, John Paul II,
and the current Pope Benedict
XVI -- have been among
some of the wealthiest
men to have ever held
the office of Pope --
as revealed by the Banco
Ambrosiano scandal, where
'GOD'S BANKER,' Roberto
Calvi, was found murdered
and hanging from beneath
Blackfriar's Bridge on
June 17, 1982. Calvi,
incidentally, was a member
of the ultra-secretive
P2 Freemason's Lodge,
also known as Propaganda
Due [i.e., P2]. Bushby
also uncovers the truth
behind the mysterious
33-day reign of Pope John
Paul I, in 1978. It has
been suggested by many
besides Bushby that John
Paul I was murdered via
poisoning because of his
threats to expose the
emerging scandal with
Banco Ambrosiano and the
Vatican Bank. As with
Roberto Calvi, there is
heavy freemasonic symbolism
in the 33 days that John
Paul I was allowed to
live, after becoming Pope
-- suggesting that Freemasons
were either involved in,
carried out, or had planned
the murder itself.
This
brave man, John Paul I,
lost his life because
he threatened to clean
up the corruption that
had infested the Vatican
financial circle, a problem
that has yet to be resolved
-- and may never be.
Bushby
also reveals intimate
details of the financial
corruption, which has
been greatly aided by
the Church's tax-exempt
status, which has allowed
the Church to quickly
exponentiate its' wealth
rather quickly, over a
short period of time.
The Jesuits are another
face of the corruption
that plagues the public
image of the Church. Known
as GOD'S ARMY and other
such appellations -- the
Jesuits, through their
agents and their leader,
who is ominously known
as 'The Black Pope,' are
perhaps the singlemost
corrupt sub-group of all
intimately associated
with the Vatican itself.
They have had their hands
in many horrible historical
events -- such as the
JFK assassination, and
many other similar events
of enormous consequence
on the world stage. Even
today, the Jesuit Order
(aka - The Society of
Jesus) has their meddling
hands in many corrupt
criminal enterprises,
as well as acting as the
enforcement police force
charged with protecting
the Vatican and its' agents
in any way possible.
Bushby's
tremendous attention to
detail is apparent in
this book, just as it
was with his first four
books in this series.
His use of copious reference
materials shows up in
the twenty page bibliography
at the back of the book
-- which contains more
than 500 books, bible
encyclopedias, research
reports, and articles
-- all on the matters
covered within the book
related to Vatican corruption.
This
book is about 50% of the
length of the other four
books of this series,
and this may be due to
the myriad problems in
locating proper reference
material to research and
write the book.
Finally,
I cannot imagine that
either the Vatican or
the Catholic Church is
very happy or pleased
with the work of Aussie
author Tony Bushby. His
earth-shattering revelations
have caused many tens
of thousands of his readers
to question the validity
of their spiritual and
religious Christian faith.
Their belief in a man-created
myth known as 'Jesus Christ'
is now on extremely shaky
ground because of this.
Based upon the Solar myth
known as Astrotheology
-- where Christ is known
as "The Sun of God,'
instead of 'The Son of
God.' As a matter of fact,
in one of his pervious
books in this series,
Bushby informs us that
one of the apocryphal
Church documents is known
as 'The Gospel of Jesus
Christ the Sun.'
This
book also covers the following
issues:
• Investments in
War Industries
• Insider trading
in gold bullion
• Fraud and illicit
transactions in the Vatican
Bank
• Counterfeit securities
conspiracies in partnership
with the Mafia
• Secret Swiss bank
accounts
• Clandestine off-shore
Company structures
If
any interested reader
wishes to better inform
themselves on the matters
of Vatican corruption,
I would highly recommend
that they pick up a copy
of this new book by Tony
Bushby, which will do
just that -- better inform
them of the behind-the-scenes
corruption of the wealthiest
institution on the entire
face of the earth.
