Quotations about the Jesuits
This is the continuation of The Jesuit Order – The Society of Jesus – By Darryl Eberhart
IV. Quotations about the Jesuits
(Of a general nature; sometimes with my amplification [enclosed in brackets] added within the quote, and/or my comments added following the quote):
“The Company [Ed.: i.e., the Jesuits], which went forth to restore Catholicism, became at length the corrupter of all morality…” – Andrew Steinmetz (“History of the Jesuits”; 1848)
“The JESUITS dominate the Vatican.” – Abbé Fremont
“The organization of the [Ed.: Roman Catholic] Hierarchy is a complete military despotism, of which the Pope is the ostensible [Ed.: i.e., apparent; seeming] head; but of which, the Black Pope [Ed.: i.e., the Superior General of the JESUIT ORDER], is the real head. The Black Pope is the head of the order of the JESUITS, and is called a General [Ed.: more specifically, the Superior General]. He not only has command of his own order, but [Ed.: also] directs and controls the general policy of the [Ed.: Roman Catholic] Church. He [Ed.: i.e., the Black Pope, the JESUIT General] is the power behind the throne, and is the real potential head of the Hierarchy. The whole machine is under the strictest rules of military discipline. The whole thought and will of this machine, to plan, propose and execute, is found in its head. There is no independence of thought, or of action, in its subordinate parts. Implicit and unquestioning obedience [Ed.: i.e., blind obedience] to the orders of superiors in authority, is the sworn duty of the priesthood of every grade…” – U.S. Army Brigadier General Thomas M. Harris (“Rome’s Responsibility for the Assassination of Abraham Lincoln”; 1897; Page 29)
“The JESUITS are a military organization, not a religious order. Their chief is a general of an army, not the mere father abbot of a monastery. And the aim of this organization is power – power in its most despotic exercise – absolute power, universal power, power to control the world by the volition of a single man [Ed.: i.e., the General of the JESUITS]. JESUITISM is the most absolute of despotisms: and at the same time the greatest and most enormous of abuses…
The [Ed.: Superior] General of the JESUITS insists on being master, sovereign, over the sovereign. Wherever the JESUITS are admitted they will be masters, cost what it may… Every act, every crime, however atrocious, is a meritorious work, if committed for the interest of the Society of the JESUITS, or by the order [Ed.: i.e., at the command] of the [Ed.: JESUIT] General.” – Napoleon I, emperor of France (a.k.a. Napoleon Bonaparte; born-died: 1769-1821)
“The JESUIT ORDER is an association of highly organized warrior priests. They are politicians first and foremost and have been expelled from virtually every country they have had the opportunity to corrupt and destroy. Their modus operandi is political and educational infiltration and subversion and the fomenting of wars and revolutions in order to weaken and mold the target country into submissive pliability, to then be used to carry out their purpose of global ecclesiastically backed dictatorship. The United States is no exception to this.” – C.T. Wilcox (“The Transformation of the Republic: The Origins of the Religious Hi-Jacking of the American Government and the Truth Behind the Assassination of Abraham Lincoln”; 2005; p 8)
“Indeed, for two centuries, all the French kings, from Henry III to Louis XV, would confess to JESUITS. All German emperors after the early seventeenth century would confess to JESUITS, too. JESUITS would take the confessions of all Dukes of Bavaria after 1579, most rulers of Poland and Portugal, the Spanish kings in the eighteenth century, and James II of England [Ed.: king of England: 1685-88].
The sacrament of confession kept JESUIT information channels loaded with vital state secrets. It also furnished the Society [Ed.: of Jesus – i.e., the JESUIT ORDER] an ideal vehicle for influencing political action.” – F. Tupper Saussy (“Rulers of Evil: Useful Knowledge About Governing Bodies”; 2001 First HarperCollins Edition; Pages 63, 64)
“Above all things, JESUITS are ‘confessors’. Their services unto the royalty were urged as a ‘need’, as they became assigned to hear the confessions of the aristocrats, emperors, kings, queens, princes, princesses, [Ed.: “royal”] mistresses, those in every level of government – they all revealed their secret plans, their intimate sins, their inner-most thoughts, as their lives became virtually an open book to the JESUITS. [Ed.: What an intelligence-gathering system!]
…Through various means of diplomacy, JESUITS worked their way into offices of State, climbing up to be the counselors of kings, and shaping the policy of nations. But it was ‘religion’ and its sacred duties of hearing the confessions of their penitents, and being their religious ‘wise’ guides, that was the key to their success. Without the ‘need’ of a religious confessor, the history of the JESUITS may have been quite different. And the JESUITS made very sure that it was they who filled that need as confessors [Ed.: especially to the rich and power elite] instead of the other orders of priests, by providing a most attractive policy of leniency as an enticement for their penitents.” – John Daniel (“The Grand Design Exposed”; 1999; Pages 67, 68)
“The JESUITS function like the Papacy’s secret worldwide police. They are very secretive and go to great lengths to keep their operations secret. They tell no one that they are JESUITS. To all outside appearances, they appear as normal people.” – Bill Hughes (“The Secret Terrorists”; 2002; Pages 9, 10)
“There was no disguise they (the JESUITS) could not assume, and therefore, there was no place into which they could not penetrate. They could enter unheard the closet of the Monarch, or the Cabinet of the Statesman. They could sit unseen in Convocation or General Assembly, and mingle unsuspected in the deliberations and debates.
There was no tongue they could not speak, and no creed they could not profess, and thus there was no people among whom they might not sojourn, and no Church whose membership they might not enter and whose functions they might not discharge. The could execrate [Ed.: i.e., sharply denounce] the Pope with the Lutheran, and swear the Solemn League with the [Ed.: Scottish] Covenanter.” – J.A. Wylie (“The History of Protestantism”; Vol. 2; Page 412)
“The JESUIT dresses in all garbs, speaks all languages, knows all customs, [Ed.: and] can blend into any situation or set of circumstances. He is present everywhere although not always recognizable. The JESUITS in recent days have been to the forefront of Liberation Theology and have been prominent in revolutionary activity from Poland to the Philippines, from South America to South Africa.” (Quote from the Preface to the 1997 Edition of “The Jesuits in History” by Hector Macpherson)
“The term ‘JESUIT’ has become synonymous with terms like deceit, chicanery, infiltration, intrigue, subversion…many organized JESUITS have been justly described as treacherous, traitorous workers, seducing many in the service of the Roman Pontiff [Ed.: i.e., the pope] away from national allegiance…” – J.E.C. Shepherd (“The Babington Plot”; 1987; p 9) “The JESUIT ORDER, therefore, stands before us as the embodiment of a system which aims at temporal political domination through temporal political means, embellished by religion, which assigns to the head of the [Ed.: Roman] Catholic religion – the Roman Pope – the role of a temporal overlord, and under shelter of the Pope-King, and using him as an instrument [Ed.: i.e., a tool], desires itself the domination over the whole world.” – Count von Hoensbroech (German nobleman and ex-Jesuit; “Fourteen Years a Jesuit”; 1911)
“…If you trace up Masonry, through all its Orders, till you come to the grand tip-top, head Mason of the World, you will discover that the dread individual and the Chief of the Society of Jesus [Ed.: i.e., the JESUIT General] are one and the same person.” – James Parton (American historian)
“Both Freemasonry and the Society of Jesus [Ed.: i.e., the JESUIT ORDER] are (a) humanist religious orders, (b) secretive, (c) fraternal, (d) socially conscientious and politically active… Both [Ed.: of these] orders (e) hold Tradition, Reason, and Experience in equal if not greater esteem than the [Ed.: Holy] Bible, (f) employ carefully structured programs of Gnostic visualization to achieve an everincreasing knowledge of the ‘divine’, (g) condone ‘the end justifies the means’, and (h) require absolute obedience, secured by blood oath, to a hierarchy of superiors culminating in the Jesuit [Ed.: Superior] General…” – F. Tupper Saussy (“Rulers of Evil: Useful Knowledge About Governing Bodies”; 2001 First HarperCollins Edition; p 121)
“The Rothschilds were JESUITS who used their Jewish background as a façade to cover their sinister activities. The JESUITS, working through Rothschild and [Ed.: financier Nicholas] Biddle, sought to gain control of the banking system of the United States.” – Bill Hughes (“The Secret Terrorists”; 2002; Page 24)
“Aware that the Rothschilds are an important Jewish family, I looked them up in [Ed.: the] Encyclopedia Judaica and discovered that they bear the title ‘Guardians of the Vatican Treasury’… The appointment of Rothschild gave the BLACK PAPACY [Ed.: i.e., the hierarchy of the JESUIT ORDER] absolute financial privacy and secrecy. Who would ever search a family of orthodox Jews for the key to the wealth of the Roman Catholic Church?” – F. Tupper Saussy (“Rulers of Evil”; 2001 First HarperCollins Edition; Page 160)
“The JESUIT ORDER has very effectively used traitorous Jews as their agents to carry out awful crimes against humanity. So many things have been done by Jews who were being used by the JESUITS. [Ed.: The Bolshevik reign of terror in Russia in the early 20th century is a good example. Most of the Jews in the Soviet Politburo were murdered after being used by the Jesuits.] When the whistle is blown and someone cries foul, the Jew is left holding the bag and is blamed, while the JESUIT ORDER walks away clean. This has been the case time after time through the last 400 years.” – Bill Hughes (“The Enemy Unmasked”; 1st Edition, 2004; p 32)
“Through the school systems, where the Society of Jesus [Ed.: i.e., the Jesuit Order] concentrates so much of its energies, the JESUITS have been enabled time and time again to infiltrate governments with the premise that what is good for the Vatican is good for any and all nations of the earth… Particularly is this obvious in the civil services; in newspaper editorials; state and foreign departments of Canada, Britain, the United States, and indeed all nations where JESUITISM has been granted a free hand in their order of ‘Separate Schools’, or the right to supervise and control the public schools.” – J.E.C. Shepherd (“The Babington Plot”; Wittenburg Publications, Toronto, Canada; 1987; Page 17)
“For over 200 years, the goal [Ed.: of the JESUITS] has been the complete destruction of the United States Constitution.
…In the religious arena, the goal of the JESUITS is to wipe out any trace of Protestantism and other religions, and to restore worldwide domination by the pope.” – Bill Hughes (“The Secret Terrorists”; 2002; Page 138)
“The JESUITS…are simply the Romish army for the earthly sovereignty of the world in the future, with the Pontiff [Ed.: i.e., pope] of Rome for emperor…that’s their ideal… It is simple lust of power, of filthy earthly gain, of domination – something like a universal serfdom with them [Ed.: i.e., the JESUITS] as masters – that’s all they stand for. They don’t even believe in God perhaps.” – Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-1881; Russian novelist) (Statement made in 1880)
“The JESUITS have a long, sordid, murderous, and twisted history, as many writers on them have shown. Malachi Martin and Peter McDonough, two modern Roman Catholic writers, have both written long tomes on the JESUITS. As Martin demonstrates, the JESUITS have been at the forefront of the war to make the world a Roman Catholic dominion.” – Dr. Ronald Cooke (“The Jesuit Kulturkampf in the United States”; 2008; Page 17)
“My history of the JESUITS is not eloquently written, but it is supported by unquestionable authorities, [Ed.: and] is very particular and very horrible. Their restoration [Ed.: i.e., the Jesuits’ reinstatement as a religious order by Pope Pius VII in 1814] is indeed a step toward darkness, cruelty, perfidy, despotism, [Ed.: and] death. …I do not like the appearance of the JESUITS. If ever there was a body of men who merited eternal damnation on earth and in hell, it is this Society of Loyola’s [Ed.: i.e., the JESUIT ORDER].” – John Adams (1735-1826; 2nd President of the United States) [Ed.: This quote is taken from a letter written by John Adams to Thomas Jefferson in 1816.]
“…The JESUITS are the only religious order in the Church of Rome…which has lain under the ban of the [Ed.: “White”] Pope, or which has been expelled from any country because of its interference in politics. Hence we may expect to find that to obtain political power forms a main feature in the plans of the Society [Ed.: of Jesus – i.e., the JESUIT ORDER].” – M.F. Cusack (Ex-nun of Kenmore; author of the book “The Black Pope”; 1896)
“The JESUITS, at one time, were so evil that they were actually suppressed by the pope of Rome. The Roman Catholic kings of Europe began to turn against the JESUITS who were working in their kingdoms to foment revolution. They began to expel the JESUITS from their kingdoms. These were Roman Catholic kings, and yet they wanted the JESUITS out of their countries. The pressure began to mount all over Europe on the papacy to do something to rein in the evil influence of the JESUITS.” – Dr. Ronald Cooke (“The Jesuit Kulturkampf in the United States”; 2008; Page 20)
“The JESUITS didn’t mind various [Ed.: Roman] Catholic versions of the Bible – they themselves made the Douay-Rheims. But they hated one Bible with a bloodthirsty passion: THE KING JAMES BIBLE [Ed.: emphasis in original]! They vowed to destroy it!” – David W. Daniels (“Did The Catholic Church Give Us The Bible?”; 2005; Page 111)
“The JESUITS have executed deeds of regicide many times over – assassination being, next to poisoning, the most favored method of choice. Volumes of such JESUIT crimes could easily be compiled, ad nauseam. History reveals that in almost every instance, the real cause of seditions, tumults, revolutions and disorder in France, Spain and Portugal was to be found with the JESUITS!” – P.D. Stuart (“CODEWORD BARBELON: Danger in the Vatican: The Sons of Loyola and Their Plans for World Dominion…”; Lux-Verbi Books, London; 2008; Page 56)
“The favorite policy of the JESUITS [is] that of assassination.” – U.S. Army Brigadier General Thomas M. Harris; “Rome’s Responsibility for the Assassination of Abraham Lincoln”; 1897; Page 19)
“I would remind you of Webster’s definition of a JESUIT: ‘a designer, an intriguer’. If the Church of Rome prevailed, the pope would be the universal king. …The JESUITS are here [Ed.: in America] to plot and scheme and, if possible, take from us the noble heritage of our civil and religious freedom. The rules of the JESUIT ORDER justify theft, licentiousness, lying, false-witness bearing, suicide, and the murder of parents and other relatives. The greatest crimes in history committed against individuals and nations have been committed by the JESUITS. …Wherever JESUITS are [Ed.: found], they have the torch to burn, the sword to slay, [Ed.: and] the inquisition to torture. They are the enemies of [Ed.: Bible-believing] Christianity. They live for conquest, fortune and glory.” – B.C. Oggel (American clergyman)
“…Wherever a totalitarian movement erupts, whether Communist or Nazi, a JESUIT can be found in the role of ‘advisor’ or leader; in [Ed.: Communist] Cuba Fr. Armando Llorente and in Argentina the neo-Nazis are led by Fr. Menvieille.” – Emanuel M. Josephson (American physician and historian; 1968)
“The presence of the JESUITS in any country, Romanist or Protestant, is likely to breed social disturbance.” – Henry Palmerston (1784-1865; British statesman & prime minister)
“The [Ed.: British] East India Company was a major subsidizer of the JESUIT mission to Beijing [Ed.: China]. The JESUITS, in turn, interceded with oriental monarchs to secure lucrative commercial favors for the company, including monopolies on tea, spices, saltpeter (for explosives), silks, and the world’s opium trade. Indeed…the [Ed.: British East India] Company appears to owe its very existence to the Society of Jesus [Ed.: i.e., the JESUITS].” – F. Tupper Saussy (“Rulers of Evil”; 2001 First HARPERCOLLINS Edition; Page 167)
“All these things cause the Father-General [Ed.: of the JESUITS] to be feared by the Pope and sovereigns… A sovereign who is not their [Ed.: the JESUITS’] friend will sooner or later experience their vengeance.” – Luigi Desanctis (Official Censor of the Inquisition)
“There is a Masonic Propaganda group, number two…known as the ‘P-2 Club’, with its headquarters being in Rome. …The P-2 Club is a propaganda society of the world’s elite which includes high-ranking Roman Catholic prelates and, of course, JESUITS.” – John Daniel (“The Grand Design Exposed”; 1999; Page 169)
“The Society of Jesus [Ed.: i.e., the Jesuit Order] is the enemy of man. The whole human race should unite for its overthrow. …For there is no alternative between its [Ed.: i.e., the Jesuit Order’s] total extirpation, and the absolute corruption and degradation of mankind.” – Robert J. Breckinridge (Pastor; author)
“There can be no shadow of doubt that the JESUITS and the Anglo-Romanist party in Britain have gained great influence over the Cable Services, Press Agencies, B.B.C., and chief newspapers of Great Britain…” – Albert Close (“Jesuit Plots from Elizabethan to Modern Times”; Page 169) [Ed.: The same thing (i.e., a JESUIT takeover of the press, the media, and the publishing industry) has also happened here in the USA!]
“[Ed.: The JESUITS] are the deadly enemies of civil and religious liberty. Nothing that stands in their way can become so sacred as to escape their vengeance…
Because of this, a sense of both duty and security demands that the history and character of this skilled and powerful adversary [Ed.: i.e., the JESUIT ORDER]…should be understood; as also [Ed.: should be understood] the causes which have led to the expulsion of the JESUITS from every country in Europe, the public odium which has rested upon them for many years, their long continued disturbance of the peace of nations, and the final suppression and abolition of their society [Ed.: in 1773] by one of the best and most enlightened of the popes [Ed.: i.e., Pope Clement XIV].” – R.W. Thompson (Ex-Secretary, American Navy) [Ed.: The Jesuit Order was reinstated – restored – as a Roman Catholic order by Pope Pius VII in 1814.]
“But we recognize in the Roman Catholic priesthood, and the JESUIT brotherhood, two distinct political organizations, united in purpose and using religion as a mask for political purpose, as they always have done in all ages and countries.” – J. Wayne Laurens (American historian; author of the book “The Crisis: Or, the Enemies of America Unmasked”)
“It is my opinion that if the liberties of this country – the United States of America – are destroyed, it will be by the subtlety of the Roman Catholic JESUIT priests, for they are the most crafty, dangerous enemies to civil and religious liberty. They have instigated most of the wars of Europe.” – Marquis de Lafayette (1757-1834; French statesman and general; served in the Continental Army under General George Washington)
“The JESUITS arrived in North America with the early French settlers in Canada. They have been at work ever since to overthrow Protestantism in North America. Canada – in many ways – is already gone; and the United States is following close behind.” – Dr. Ronald Cooke (“The Jesuit Kulturkampf in the United States”; 2008; Page 22)
“Today they [Ed.: i.e., the JESUITS] are stronger in the United States than they ever were in any of the countries of Europe which expelled them as a menace to the government.” – Jeremiah J. Crowley (Irishman; ex-priest in the Roman Catholic Church; author of the book “Romanism: Menace to the Nation”) (Statement made in 1912)
“The present cultural struggle in the United States is JESUIT-inspired, and is obviously helping to Romanize [Ed.: i.e., to make Roman Catholic] rather than ‘Christianize’ this country.” – Dr. Ronald Cooke (“The Jesuit Kulturkampf in the United States”; 2008; Page 12)
“…The Protestants of earlier times looked upon the JESUITS as the greatest opponents of truth and righteousness that the world has ever seen.
…Whereas the Protestant evangelicals of the present time…[Ed.: do not] know anything about the long history of the JESUITS, who since their inception have had one main goal in view: the destruction of everything connected to the Protestant Reformation.” – Dr. Ronald Cooke (“The Jesuit Kulturkampf in the United States”; 2008; Page 20)
“This society [Ed.: i.e., the JESUIT ORDER] which has dared to appropriate to itself the Name, which is above every Name, by calling itself ‘The Order [Ed.: or, Society] of Jesus’ deserved rather from the nature of its doctrines and from the work it has done in the world to be called the Order of Satan.” – McKinley Ash (“The Antichrist”; Page 81)
