Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book shows that the practices of the Roman Catholic Church are a revival of ancient pagan traditions, and argues that within the faith many pagan rituals, ceremonies, and beliefs are still openly practiced, all while being clearly denounced by the early church itself. The author seeks to illustrate how the Catholic Church is rooted in pre-Christian paganism through a thorough examination of relevant historical customs, comparing similarities between the rituals of the Catholic Church with those of ancient pagan faiths. The author highlights the use of incense, holy water, lamps and candles, votive offerings, images, chapels on the wayside and hilltops, processions, and miracles in both Catholic and Pagan worship. They further examine the dire consequences of pagan practices being incorporated into Christianity and the inherent contradictions between its rituals and the values of true Christianity as imparted by Christ and the early apostles. Overall, this book provides a deep dive into the history and practices of the Catholic Church, highlighting its pagan origins and demonstrating how many of its traditions and beliefs conflict with the teachings of early Christianity.
