Sandy Hook Gunman Adam Lanza Worshiped the Devil

The Sandy Hook gunman worshiped the devil and  had an online page dedicated to Satan, a former classmate revealed, as his  childhood barber recalls Adam Lanza never spoke and would stare at the floor  every time he had his hair cut.

Lanza’s worshiping page had the word ‘Devil’  written in red, Gothic-style letters against a black background, Trevor L. Todd  told The National Enquirer, something which he said was ‘weird’ and ‘gave him  the chills’.

The FBI are trying to piece together his  smashed up hard drive to see if his online footprint will reveal any motive for  the killing, but they strongly believe he made use of devil-worshiping and  suicide sites and boasted of his murder plans on message forums…

War on Halloween

In Russia:

MOSCOW – While many in the U.S. bemoan what they see as a war on Christmas, in Russia a very different holiday is under attack: Halloween. Here some don’t see it as the holiday of tricks and treats, but as a sinister celebration that endangers children.

The latest salvo came from a group of Russian Orthodox Church leaders and a group of Cossacks, who are spearheading an effort to cancel Halloween celebrations in the region of Stavropol Krai, in southern Russia. A nearby region, Krasnodar Krai, recently prohibited celebrating the holiday in schools.

But why are the church and the Cossacks, the feared horseback defenders of the tsars, spooked by Halloween?

“I consider it absolutely unacceptable for certain reasons. Halloween celebrations have been imposed on us for 20 years, and we are perfectly aware of how it all looks: revelry, baboonish behavior and scoffing at death, and thus at the memory of our deceased loved ones, whom all of us certainly have” said Andrei Sakhno, a youth leader at the local diocese in Stavropol Krai, according to RIA Novosti.

The head of Stavropol city’s Cossack community agreed, saying “I believe this holiday must be banned.”

RIA Novosti also quotes the regional education ministry saying Halloween “contradicted the principle of secular education and could have a destructive impact on young people’s morals and mental health.”

The justification in Krasnodar Krai is similar. The Education Ministry there quoted unnamed psychiatrists saying the holiday “poses a great danger to children” and their mental health, suggesting it could make young people more likely to commit suicide.

Like Valentine’s Day, which has also been criticized as it has grown in popularity here in recent years, Halloween is a western holiday that was imported after the fall of the Soviet Union. While some Russians have embraced them, others fear them as foreign to the country’s culture.

In 2003, Moscow’s Education Department banned Halloween celebrations from the city’s schools, citing concerns about “rituals of Satanically oriented religious sects” and saying it promotes “the cult of death.”

 

Devilish ‘Energy Drink’ Blasphemes the Mass

In Poland, where things seem to have gotten way bad.

Edit: We got this from an organizer at Polish Facebook group Satanizm nie przejdzie – bojkot produktów Agros Nova, to ban satanic advertisement of an energy drink and its insult to the Mass in Poland of all places. It just goes to show you that things are getting bad all over.

Catholics, Christians, all believers in God! Poland is under an assault of corporate-sponsored satanism in the form of the “Demon Energy Drink” advertisement campaign. Our young are being corrupted with praises of demonic values and occult symbolism. We have to put an end to it! Our page promotes a boycott of all the grocery products of Agros-Nova, a company that makes “Demon Energy Drink” in Poland. The more likes we have, the bigger chance we have to be successful. I urge you to add your “like” to this page [called "Satanism shall not pass - boycott of Agros Nova products"], even if you are not from Poland. This is very important! Satan is attacking the last major Catholic country in Europe. We need to stand up and defend it!

We live in dark and evil days…

‘Face Of Satan’ Revealed in Renaissance Fresco

In the Huffington Post:

The devil‘s in the details, literally.

Art restorers working on one the most famous frescoes painted by Renaissance painter Giotto di Bondone in the Basillica of St. Francis in Assisi, Italy have uncovered an astounding hidden secret painted by the artist himself. According to Reuters, Giotto hid the face of the devil himself in a fresco.

The concept of hiding a figure in the clouds, according to the BBC, was previously thought to have first been implemented by Andrea Mantegna in the 15th century. Giotto’s fresco dates to the 13th century.

The figure, which is hard to see from the ground, is hidden in the cathedral’s fresco number 20 painted by Giotto. Sergio Fusetti, the chief restorer on the progect, told Reuters that the artist likely never wanted the devil to be prominently featured, and may have incorporated it in order “to have a bit of fun.” It’s also possible Giotto painted the face to spite someone he knew, portraying the person as the devil.

The basilica is located in the convent where St. Francis is buried, and, according to the BBC, was last restored after being severely damaged in a 1997 earthquake.

Girl Set Alight in ‘Satanic Ritual’

UPDATE:  Sadly Kirsty Theologo has died after having been burnt in satanic ritual. RIP.
Satan’s way:

The girls, one 18 and the other 16, were among eight youngsters who went to a koppie behind the Linmeyer pool in Johannesburg on Friday night.

According to Samantha Theologo, her 18-year-old sister Kirsty has 75 percent burns to her body from the waist up.

Doctors had told them, she said, that they were worried about her sister’s recovery because her lungs and throat were damaged.

Kirsty was scheduled to have surgery today.

Samantha said the group of five boys and three girls knew one another well and her sister would hang out with them often. One of the boys was a neighbour and one of the girls lived on the same street.

Kirsty Theologo , 18, of Joburg, had petrol poured over her by friends. She was then set alight in what appears to be a satanic ritual. Kirsty suffered 75 percent burns mostly above her waist.

Teenagers say the koppie is a well-known spot for youngsters to sit at weekends to look at the view and drink.

The Theologo family heard from the other victim – Kirsty’s friend, who is recovering in a private hospital – that the boys had decided that the two would be sacrificed in some sort of satanic ritual.

“We don’t know exactly what happened. We heard they were tied up, but we don’t know,” said Samantha.

The boys are said to have poured petrol over her sister and set her alight.

Her friend then tried to put out the flames, rolling Kirsty in the sand. In the process she was also burnt.

The rest of the group ran away, leaving the two girls to climb down the hill on their own.

“In the state she was in, my sister made sure they walked to safety,” said Samantha. “She walked all the way to Rosettenville – about 2km away.

“I wasn’t home, but my mom told me she found my sister in the bathroom washing her face. My mom said it was horrific.”

According to a medical source, speaking to The Star, sister newspaper of the Daily News, on condition of anonymity, the teenagers were driven to South Rand Hospital by their pastor, then transferred to other hospitals.

“It was impressive that they walked all that way in their condition.”

The source said a third girl told them that the boys cut her hand and held it over a Bible so that the blood could soak it, while Kirsty was burnt.

Provincial police spokeswoman Captain Pinky Tsingane said the girls were tied up and there was speculation the attack was a satanic ritual, but they still needed to investigate.

A case of attempted murder was opened.

By late yesterday, two boys, aged 19 and 21, had handed themselves in at the Booysens police station, said Tsingane.

Meanwhile, Kirsty’s family are extremely shocked.

“It’s horrible, it’s scary and just horrific what happened to my sister,” said Samantha.

“My mom is in a state and can’t talk. Friends are breaking down. Kirsty is in Grade 11 and is loved by so many people. This is a nightmare.”

Izabella Little, from the teenage advice forum Lifetalk, said Satanism was not spoken about.

A mother contacted her last year to seek advice after her teenage daughter was kidnapped in Cape Town and brought to a type of church where another teenager was murdered. She escaped, but was very traumatised.

Straight out of the pit of hell!

UPDATE: News 24 (as above)

Johannesburg – The young woman who was doused in petrol and set alight in a suspected satanic ritual in Linmeyer died on Friday morning, Johannesburg police said.

“Kirsty Theologo passed away due to her injuries,” Warrant Officer Lorraine Van Emmerik said.

The 18-year-old was in a coma at Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital with 75% burns to her body from her waist up. She died shortly after 04:00 on Friday.

Murder charge

Van Emmerik said one of the attempted murder charges against the four men who allegedly set Theologo and her friend alight would now be changed to murder.

The four appeared in the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday.

They are Lindon Wagner, 21, Robin Harwood, 18, Lester Moody, 18, and Jeremy King, 18.

Magistrate Lucas van der Schyff postponed the matter to November 1 for further investigation.

The young men would be held at the Booysens police station for DNA tests to be completed, public prosecutor Colleen Ryan said.

Theologo and her friend were among eight youngsters who reportedly went to a koppie behind the Linmeyer swimming pool in Julius Street last Friday night.

The two girls reportedly were tied up before they were set alight in what has been described as a Satanic ritual.

Moral Relativism Paves Way for Satanism

Glad someone is still saying it…

‘Jesus’ Hot Cross Buns?!

New Zealand churches upset over hot cross buns ‘like Jesus’…

The Telegraph (UK) reports on what these evil idiots have done:

A pizza company has caused outrage in New Zealand with billboards advertising hot cross buns accompanied by the slogan: “For a limited time. A bit like Jesus.” 

Instead of the traditional Christian cross, the buns bear an inverted pentagram, a design symbolic of Satanism.

The giant billboards, placed by the Hell Pizza company, have been plastered around Auckland, the country’s largest city.

Lloyd Ashton, a spokesman for New Zealand’s Anglican Church, condemned the advertising campaign as disgraceful.

“It’s disrespectful to what a lot of people hold very dear,” he said.

“They’ve dared here to take a clumsy poke at something that numbers of people hold sacred.”

Patrick Dunn, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Auckland, said: “I suppose in some ways they are acknowledging that Jesus was around for a limited time, but a number of people might decide to boycott Hell pizzas for a while and I will be one of them.”

Warren Powell, a director of the company, defended the campaign, saying: “I do not see how it could possibly be disrespectful to anyone’s religion.

“We may bring them back next year, and everyone’s saying that Jesus Christ is coming back one day,” he told the New Zealand Herald.

New Zealand’s Advertising Standards Authority confirmed it had received complaints about the billboards and would be investigating.

Hell Pizza, which operates outlets around New Zealand as well as a handful of stores in London, is no stranger to controversy.

In 2008 the firm was forced to apologise to the family of the late Sir Edmund Hillary after a Hallowe’en advertisement featured the skeletal remains of the Everest conqueror, along with those of the Queen Mother and the actor Heath Ledger, dancing on gravestones.

Buns stamped with a pentagons? Stupid. Using Jesus’ holy name? Blasphemous mockery! How very wicked the world has become.

Satanism through the Ages

The term Satanism represents a broad range of religions, world views, and literature that all look favourably on Satan or similar rebellious figures.

The Telegraph (UK) reports on the worship of this fiend:

Satan first appeared in the Hebrew Bible as an angel who challenged the religious faith of humans. In the Book of Job he is called “the Satan” (“the accuser”) and acted as the prosecutor in God’s court.

A character named Satan was described as the cosmic enemy of the Lord and tempter of Jesus within many of the Gospels of early Christians. He is the bringer of Armageddon and Apocalypse as featured within the Book of Revelation.

Christians and Muslims have portrayed Satan as an evil competitor to humans and Jesus, characterised as a fallen angel or demon ruling the Underworld.

The Christian church’s tendency to label all those who did not agree with it as agents of evil led to the persecution of numerous non-Christian groups, leading to the Crusades and witch-hunts and the Inquisition. It would also eventually lead to the destruction of many indigenous cultures, such as the Mayan civilisation, in the name of Christ.

Famous satanists over the ages include Gilles de Rais, a 15th century French nobleman, was tried and executed for the murders of hundreds of children in quasi-Satanic rituals.

The late 17th century campaign against alleged satanism known as the Poison Affair under Louis XIV, involved accusations of widespread poisonings, infanticide and forgery committed by an alleged satanic social network.

Modern Satanist groups fall into two major trends: Theistic Satanism, which venerates Satan as a supernatural deity, and Atheistic Satanism, which regards Satan as symbolic of purely certain human traits.

The Church of Satan, established in San Francisco in 1966, preaches the Nine Satanic Statements, which include “Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence”, “Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek” and “Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification”.

In 2004, the Royal Navy approved its first ever Satanist, despite opposition from Christians.

There is now a growing movement of theistic Satanists, who believe in and revere Satan as a deity.

One is the Temple of Set, which identifies the Christian Satan with the ancient Egyptian god Set.

In the 1980s, there were a series of alleged cases of Satanic ritual abuse in the United States, leading to moral panic but only a tiny number of crimes were recorded.

Those who walk in the light have no business with those who adore this murder, walk in darkness and dabble in the occult.
