France's Education Minister: "We Must Replace the Catholic Church with a Republican Religion"

Eponymous Flower ^ | July 2, 2013

[NYer]

Vincent Peillon, born in 1960, acting in his anti-Catholic delirium, as if he had just been sent from a lodge to a revolutionary tribunal during the French Revolution, is a Jew, a member of the Socialist Party and Freemason. His mother is from the Alsace rabbi family Blum, his grandfather was Leon Blum. His uncle, Etienne-Emile Baulieu (actually Etienne Blum), is one of the inventors of the abortion pill RU486.

Sounds like his Jewish heritage is just that. Like CINOs, these are not practicing Jews.

[DownInFlames]

Outlaw all religions except state approved. Where have I seen that before.

[Repulican Donkey]

The frogs tried this once in 1789. Didn’t work then, won’t work now.

[vladimir998]

I hope it won’t work, but the Church was a lot stronger then.

[HiTech RedNeck]

This is going to go over like a lead balloon. A state doesn’t have anything going for it like God does. It is not a credible object of belief.

[BlackElk]

That makes me prouder than ever to be a Catholic.

[GenXteacher]

A republic based on human reason...hmm...that didn’t last long the first time they tried it...

And they say Catholics carry a lot of baggage.

[Del Rapier]

Men didn’t invent religion,they entered into a relationship with a higher being and wrote a set of beliefs based on this whether God wanted them to or not.

Finding a common “God” for people and actually reaching out to him and learning from him,are 2 very different things and the former will just lead to a lot of dissatisfied people.

Also if he is the minister of education,then he might want to uh learn his history.I doubt he is going to try to create an artificial religion but the people after the French revolution did just that...abolished the Church and replaced it with an obscure cult.

Mind you if he is referring to that,not only is he very original but he is another socialist who seems to think a failed experiment that wrecked people’s lives,is something to be proud of.

You know, in Israel it's the chrstians who vote Communist (and belong to the Grand Orient de la France).

[MSF BU]

Is that so? Why?

[markomalley]

Gee, maybe they could change the calendar around, too!

[Zionist Conspirator]

Is that so? Why?

Yes, it's so. For years and years the Arab chrstians of Nazareth kept that city under a Communist mayor.

Like Jews in chrstendom, chrstians in the moslem Middle East are vulnerable to alienation, which leads to both utopian universalism and the need to prove one's loyalty to the culture one feels alienated from (ie, liberal Jews' placing the Bill of Rights above Torah, Arab chrstians being more anti-Israel and more PLO than Arab moslems).

Contrary to the apparently ineradicable fantasy that exists in the minds of so many people (and always has), Communism is not "Zionist." From the very beginning of the Bolshevik Revolution Zionism was outlawed in Communist Russia (the only exception being a few years in the late Forties when the Communist bloc temporarily supported the creation of Israel as part of the then party line against the British Empire). Even in Israel, all the Communist parties--even those made up of Jews--were anti-Zionist, including the original "Palestine Communist Party." You know . . . Jewish Communists settling in Israel to fight Zionism doesn't exactly make a lot of sense.

Thanks NYer.

[rmlew]

I hate communist of Jewish descent. They hate Judaism, but they invite untermenschen to see them as Jews.

[Berosus]

What is he squawking about? France has been Catholic in name only for a long time. Will he bring back the Committee for Public Safety, too?

[SunkenCiv]

Maybe they need to go back to ten-day weeks as well. :’)

[MSF BU]

Interesting. Well, in this country I see so many supposed “Christians” who champion sodomy and abortion, this should not come as a surprise. Still it does. I would have thought Christians in Israel would have amounted to a more conservative element.

[Old Yeller]

That makes me prouder than ever to be a Catholic.

Suit yourself. I prefer being a humble follower of Christ.
