That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.

> a worldwide directive about infiltrating the Catholic Church, while in
> the early 1950s, Mrs. Bella Dodd was also providing detailed
> explanations of the Communist subversion of the Church. Speaking as a
> former high-ranking official of the American Communist Party, Mrs. Dodd
> said: "In the 1930s we put eleven hundred men into the priesthood in
> order to destroy the Church from within."
>
> The idea was for these men to be ordained and progress to positions of
> influence and authority as Monsignors and Bishops. A dozen years before
> Vatican II she stated: "Right now they are in the highest places in the
> Church," where they were working to bring about change in order to
> weaken the Church's effectiveness against Communism. She also said that
> these changes would be so drastic that "you will not recognise the
> Catholic Church."
>
> Dodd gave voluminous testimony on Communist infiltration of Church and
> State before the House UnAmerican Activities Committee in the 1950s. In
> a lecture at Fordham University during that time, Dodd unveiled what
> would seem to be an uncanny prophecy of future chaos in the Church. The
> lecture was attended by a monk whose account of the talk is presented in
> Christian Order:
>
> I listened to that woman for four hours and she had my hair standing on
> end. Everything she said has been fulfilled to the letter. You would

> was merely exposing the step-by-step battle plan of Communist subversion
> of the Catholic Church. She explained that of all the world's religions,
> the Catholic Church was the only one feared by the Communists, for it
> was its only effective opponent.
>
> The whole idea was to destroy, not the institution of the Church, but
> rather the Faith of the people, and even use the institution of the
> Church, if possible, to destroy the Faith through the promotion of a
> pseudo-religion: something that resembled Catholicism but was not the
> real thing. Once the Faith was destroyed, she explained that there would
> be a guilt complex introduced into the Church ... to label the "Church
> of the past" as being oppressive, authoritarian, full of prejudices,
> arrogant in claiming to be the sole possessor of truth, and responsible
> for the divisions of religious bodies throughout the centuries. This
> would be necessary in order to shame Church leaders into an "openness to
> the world," and to a more flexible attitude toward all religions and
> philosophies. The Communists would then exploit this openness in order
> to undermine the Church.
