Anyone ever see this one-evil.org/index.asp ? I've seen nuttiness and delusion, but that has to be the most off the wall I've come across yet.

I notice it is anti-semitic as well as anti-Catholic, and the author identifies himself as a gnostic and claims the true Christian gnostic revelation (and the true Islamic ditto) were suppressed by Jewish Sadducee conspirators. Seems like bog-standard Marcionism to me, and the Jew-Jesuit equation was fairly common in certain Protestant and "German Christian" esoteric circles, especially in the C19. There's a limit to the originality of these nuts (though I must confess the prominence given to Uthman bin Affan, the third Sunni Caliph, on the list of evil men, surprises me. OTOH he is a major villain for Shia Islam, and Shiiism has certain gnostic tendencies such as the idea that Mohammed made a secret revelation to Fatima and Ali as well as a public revelation in the Koran, so perhaps it's not so surprising. Himmler as a Jesuit is not unknown among nuts either - after all, Himmler modelled certain features of the SS on the Jesuits as he imagined them. St Francis of Assisi as an Elder of Zion is a new one on me, but once you believe in the Elders of Zion at all St Francis as an archfiend is not such a big leap. I regret I failed to investigate exactly why "St Vlad Tepes" got placed so high on the blacklist. Life is too short for this, or for the minutiae of the Dimond Brothers or the Westboro Baptist Church. It's a pity John J Reilly is dead - this is just the sort of thing that intrigued him: www.johnreilly.info/

I thought it took the Judaeo-Masonic conspiracy in a whole new direction with Fr Joseph Stalin SJ and Heinrich Himmler SJ. I thought no one went in for the great Jesuit conspiracy anymore.

Kingsley Amis once wrote a novel in which the Reformation had never happened, and the Inquisition was still up and running in 1970s Europe with Michael Foot and Tony Benn as Chief Inquisitors, and Fr. Heinrich and Fr Lavrenti [Beria] recalled as particularly distinguished past-practitioners. Harold Wilson was Pope.
