NOTR - Jesuits, Loyalty & Treason - 8.9.16

Today's Show: JESUITS, LOYALTY & TREASON

Chris discusses more on the history of the Jesuit Order and how they are known for feigning loyalty towards others the most, right before carrying out the worst sort of treason.  According to 19th century historian, J.A. Wylie, when the Jesuits "have some special villainy in hand ... they make the loudest professions of amity and goodwill."  Historic examples include the Babington Plot, the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre and the Gunpowder Plot of 1605.

NOTR - Jesuits, Press & Pulpit - 8.8.16

Today's Show: JESUITS, PRESS & PULPIT

Chris discusses more of the history of the Jesuit Order and their influence over mass media in centuries past.   19th century historian, J.A. Wylie wrote that the two institutions that the order seeks to control are the press and the pulpit.  His description of their working in the newspapers of the United Kingdom back in 1881 sounds very similar to elements we are able to recognize in Western media today.   Also discussed is Wylie's commentary on their influence in Protestant and Evangelical churches throughout history.
