00:00.000 --> 00:06.780
Hey YouTube, this is Run to Christ and
this is Studies in the Spirituality of

00:06.780 --> 00:12.220
Jesuits and the title, Saint Ignatius of
Loyola and the Jews.

00:32.810 --> 00:36.990
Now, just to give you a little bit of
background before we get into this.

00:37.270 --> 00:42.070
My video of the other day, if you didn't
see it, is Superior General of the Jesuit

00:42.070 --> 00:46.690
Order Ignatius of Loyola is a Crypto Jew,
debunked.

00:47.570 --> 00:52.370
Now, this video has come under a little
bit of fire from people who would rather

00:52.370 --> 00:57.310
believe their own conspiracy theories than
actual historical facts.

00:58.330 --> 01:04.330
Now, Loyola was not a Crypto Jew,
it is literally impossible for that to be

01:04.330 --> 01:09.090
true, based on the genetics of the
Basques.

01:09.630 --> 01:13.950
Loyola was a Basque and they were
genetically isolated for thousands of

01:13.950 --> 01:14.350
years.

01:15.210 --> 01:21.890
They did not intermingle and as we peruse
this book, Loyola and the Jews,

01:22.050 --> 01:26.470
you're going to see just how seriously the
Spaniards took that.

01:27.310 --> 01:32.750
So, it starts here, this is just a little
foreword and this is where it gets into

01:32.750 --> 01:33.330
it.

01:33.750 --> 01:35.570
Historical context in Spain.

01:36.290 --> 01:40.650
The Jews of Spain endured a long history
of oppression and subjugation,

01:41.530 --> 01:48.130
beginning with the Council of Elvira in
306, which forbade close relations of

01:48.130 --> 01:49.230
Christians and Jews.

01:50.010 --> 01:55.210
In their meeting in southern Spain,
the council fathers decreed, if any cleric

01:55.210 --> 02:00.270
or one of the faithful takes a meal with
Jews, they are ordered to abstain from

02:00.270 --> 02:00.810
communion.

02:01.530 --> 02:06.890
This restriction was mild, however,
compared with those enacted in Visigothic

02:06.890 --> 02:14.710
Spain under King Sisebut in 613,
who presented Jews with the ultimatum of

02:14.710 --> 02:16.290
baptism or exile.

02:16.590 --> 02:20.990
Many fled the country, but many more were
converted before Sisebut died.

02:21.730 --> 02:26.310
A general discriminatory policy against
Jews continued for many years,

02:27.110 --> 02:32.410
with the 5th through 17th councils of
Toledo containing some sort of legislation

02:32.410 --> 02:33.110
against them.

02:34.070 --> 02:38.630
Jews were gradually stripped of rights,
and humiliating and painful punishments,

02:39.230 --> 02:43.810
like flogging or pulling out of hair,
were inflicted for misdemeanors.

02:44.250 --> 02:50.230
Under King Rechiswinth in 653,
all Jews were forced to sign a placitum,

02:50.570 --> 02:53.950
a lengthy oath which made the practice of
Judaism impossible.

02:54.710 --> 02:58.770
Violations of the oath would result in
death by fire or stone.

02:59.870 --> 03:04.170
So the Jews in early years were
persecuted, and they went 400 years under

03:04.170 --> 03:04.950
Muslim rule.

03:05.550 --> 03:09.030
The Jews flourished more than ever before,
they enjoyed a time of prosperity,

03:09.290 --> 03:13.590
creativity, and achieved great strides in
poetry and rabbinic literature,

03:13.990 --> 03:15.550
medicine and philosophy.

03:16.010 --> 03:21.210
So successful was this period that the
latter half became known as the Golden Era

03:21.210 --> 03:22.710
of the Jews in Spain.

03:23.190 --> 03:28.050
So what happened next is a fanatical
Alamohades and their ultimatum,

03:28.430 --> 03:34.470
Islam or death, many Jews fled north to
Christian Spain, where the Reconquista was

03:34.470 --> 03:35.910
making its slow progress.

03:39.330 --> 03:45.990
A succession of humanist kings in
Christian Spain from the 11th to 14th

03:45.990 --> 03:51.390
centuries showered the Jews with honours
and favours because of their economic and

03:51.390 --> 03:52.410
creative abilities.

03:53.230 --> 04:02.770
Ferdinand I of Castile, in 1027-1065,
granted the Jews equal rights with

04:02.770 --> 04:05.950
Christians and even gave them important
positions in his court.

04:06.650 --> 04:12.290
This is the beginning of what is known as
the era of Papal Court Jews.

04:14.090 --> 04:21.430
The Jews were given high positions in the
courts next to kings so that they could

04:21.430 --> 04:25.730
mediate between the Pope and the King when
it came to finances.

04:27.470 --> 04:30.110
Now this is still happening today.

04:30.570 --> 04:36.850
This is why later on the Rothschilds and
families such as that, this is how they

04:36.850 --> 04:37.610
gained power.

04:38.770 --> 04:43.590
The Rothschilds are called the Guardians
of the Papal Treasury.

04:44.090 --> 04:48.150
As you can see here, this is the Jewish
encyclopedia.

04:49.350 --> 04:54.450
Okay, the Rothschilds are Jewish so this
is them recording their own history and

04:54.450 --> 04:55.610
it's from their own mouths.

04:56.510 --> 05:01.930
It is a somewhat curious sequel to the
attempt to set up a Catholic competitor to

05:01.930 --> 05:08.610
the Rothschilds that at the present time
the latter are the Guardians of the Papal

05:08.610 --> 05:09.010
Treasure.

05:10.230 --> 05:14.730
So the Rothschilds are the Catholic Church
accountants basically.

05:16.070 --> 05:21.830
Okay, the papacy is the one in control,
not the Rothschilds.

05:22.090 --> 05:25.970
As we can see in the next sentence,
of recent years the Rothschilds have

05:25.970 --> 05:29.910
consistently refused to have anything to
do with loans to Russia.

05:31.070 --> 05:34.010
This is because they had a long-standing
family grudge.

05:34.350 --> 05:39.730
But after they became the Guardians of the
Papal Treasure, loans to Russia went out.

05:40.030 --> 05:42.150
Now this happened in 1893.

05:42.610 --> 05:46.330
But the Jews are in high positions in
Europe.

05:46.590 --> 05:48.990
That's why they were called Papal Court
Jews.

05:49.370 --> 05:57.130
They were appointed by the Pope to act as
go-betweens amongst kings and the papacy.

05:57.950 --> 06:02.290
Continuing in Loyola and the Jews,
Jewish prestige and power were especially

06:02.290 --> 06:05.650
evident in the court of Toledo,
the capital of Castile.

06:06.170 --> 06:10.950
And among the nobles, no king was without
a Jewish minister, counselor or physician.

06:10.950 --> 06:16.750
Assuming control of court finances,
Jews also lent money and collected taxes.

06:17.630 --> 06:20.110
Envy of their success mounted over the
years.

06:20.890 --> 06:27.150
However, to such a fever pitch that in
1391, 4,000 Jews were killed in Seville.

06:27.890 --> 06:31.950
Carnage spread throughout Spain,
sweeping through 70 Jewish communities,

06:32.250 --> 06:37.270
until in the end, some 50,000 Jews were
dead and many more had been baptized.

06:38.190 --> 06:41.690
In some districts, not a single Jew was
left.

06:42.110 --> 06:47.490
So the presence of this large number of
newly baptized Jews, or conversos as they

06:47.490 --> 06:52.030
were called, would to a large extent
determine the future of Jews in Spain.

06:52.710 --> 06:57.490
The church saw the Jews as a threat to the
conversos and the state saw them as a

06:57.490 --> 07:00.590
hindrance to the unification of
Christendom.

07:00.790 --> 07:04.390
Moreover, not all of the conversos had
truly become Christians.

07:04.750 --> 07:10.030
Many adhered outwardly to Christianity,
but in varying degrees continued secretly

07:10.030 --> 07:11.290
to practice Judaism.

07:11.790 --> 07:17.010
This is where we get the term Crypto-Jew,
which just means hidden Jew.

07:17.630 --> 07:20.630
By 1492, not one Jew remained in Spain.

07:21.050 --> 07:25.010
It cites the establishment of the
Inquisition, segregation of Jews into

07:25.010 --> 07:31.390
separate quarters, and expulsion of the
Jews from Andalusia as steps were taken,

07:31.570 --> 07:34.390
but still, the conversos problem remained.

07:35.170 --> 07:40.110
The decree states, we have been informed
by the Inquisitors and by other persons,

07:40.610 --> 07:44.430
that the mingling of Jews with Christians
leads to the worst evils.

07:45.270 --> 07:49.150
The Jews try their best to seduce
Christians and their children,

07:49.550 --> 07:53.550
bringing them books of Jewish prayers and
telling them of the days of the Jewish

07:53.550 --> 07:54.050
holidays.

07:54.810 --> 07:59.390
So, over the years, as sentiment against
the Jews grew, the distinction between

07:59.390 --> 08:04.430
these groups became blurred, and that
between converted and non-converted Jews

08:04.430 --> 08:05.410
seemed to disappear.

08:05.850 --> 08:10.590
Their bad blood, malis angere,
many thought made all the Jews,

08:10.890 --> 08:14.510
all the Jews, whether converted or not,
evil and perverse.

08:14.510 --> 08:22.690
Now, this is genetic racism at its finest,
and it was perpetrated by the Catholic

08:22.690 --> 08:23.130
Church.

08:23.850 --> 08:28.510
And everybody who was Catholic,
especially in Spain, that's what they

08:28.510 --> 08:28.950
believed.

08:29.450 --> 08:35.050
Because the Spanish, as you're about to
find out, had a really big deal about

08:35.050 --> 08:37.330
blood and who you were related to.

08:38.230 --> 08:45.750
Eventually, it continues to say,
limpieza de sangre, purity of blood was a

08:45.750 --> 08:46.630
major concern.

08:46.970 --> 08:48.030
Purity of blood?

08:48.190 --> 08:48.750
I see.

08:49.270 --> 08:53.810
So that's rather like how Adolf Hitler
used to think, wasn't it?

08:54.290 --> 08:56.490
Purity of the Aryan race?

08:57.390 --> 08:57.610
Yeah?

08:57.770 --> 09:00.170
The purity of blood was a major concern.

09:00.770 --> 09:06.290
So they didn't want to have relations with
the Jews because of their bad blood.

09:07.330 --> 09:09.990
The bad blood made them evil and perverse.

09:10.410 --> 09:12.290
This is just pure out and out racism.

09:12.910 --> 09:17.470
Judaism had not become only a religious
problem, but an ethnic one as well.

09:17.870 --> 09:24.070
It was in this context that Ignatius of
Loyola, the seventh son of an old Basque

09:24.070 --> 09:32.490
family, an old Basque family, the Onaz of
Loyola, hardly one year before the edict

09:32.490 --> 09:36.710
of expulsion was signed, so he cannot be a
Jew.

09:37.690 --> 09:43.550
It's just impossible because the genetic
test done in 2015 proves that they had the

09:43.550 --> 09:46.090
same bloodline for thousands of years.

09:46.670 --> 09:47.750
So it goes on.

09:48.310 --> 09:51.750
He probably met no Jews during his
childhood in Spain.

09:52.390 --> 09:55.350
The first mention of any kind of
connection that he might have had with

09:55.350 --> 10:01.410
Jews or Jewish Christians does not occur
until he was interrogated by the

10:01.410 --> 10:04.030
Inquisition soon after his conversion.

10:04.390 --> 10:09.050
Here perhaps is his early attitude towards
Jewish Christians revealed.

10:09.230 --> 10:14.110
So Ignatius, while at Alcala studying and
giving the spiritual exercises,

10:14.530 --> 10:18.250
Ignatius was investigated three times by
the Inquisition.

10:19.210 --> 10:23.830
You would think that if the Inquisition
investigated him three times for being

10:23.830 --> 10:26.670
possibly a Cryptal Jew that they would
have found out.

10:27.950 --> 10:32.610
The reason he was investigated three times
is he and his companions attracted much

10:32.610 --> 10:37.870
attention by their youth, their apostolic
activity, and the manner of their dress.

10:38.310 --> 10:42.130
That got the attention of the Inquisition
and they wondered who they were.

10:42.610 --> 10:46.650
So the first two incidents were minor
compared with the third which resulted in

10:46.650 --> 10:50.290
a jail sentence of 42 days for Ignatius.

10:50.790 --> 10:56.350
After Ignatius had been in jail for 17
days, the Vicar Figueroa finally

10:56.350 --> 10:57.230
questioned him.

10:57.850 --> 11:03.530
Polanco and his Vita Ignatia Laioli
records the interrogation as follows.

11:04.530 --> 11:09.010
When after the time described,
the Vicar Figueroa came to question him

11:09.010 --> 11:13.990
and among other things asked him if he
recommended observance of the Sabbath,

11:14.350 --> 11:20.810
that is Saturday, he replied, Ignatius
replied, For Saturdays I recommend special

11:20.810 --> 11:25.650
devotion to our Lady and I know of no
other observances for Saturday.

11:26.510 --> 11:29.970
Moreover in my country there are no Jews.

11:30.550 --> 11:37.510
So how can he be a Jew if there's no Jews
in the country and for the past hundreds

11:37.510 --> 11:38.890
of years they've been persecuted.

11:39.410 --> 11:44.850
There's a purity of blood act signed into
law which by the way was only taken out of

11:44.850 --> 11:46.690
law in the 20th century.

11:47.190 --> 11:52.230
Doubtful of Ignatius origins Figueroa had
dared to ask in veiled terms if his

11:52.230 --> 11:57.570
suspect were not indeed a converso who
remained faithful to the Jewish devotions.

11:58.190 --> 12:02.650
Although it is difficult to say precisely
what Ignatius intended by his response,

12:03.310 --> 12:08.850
it would not be entirely unlikely that his
answer to Vicar Figueroa indicates that

12:08.850 --> 12:15.790
the Basque from Loyola in the province
of... I don't even know how to pronounce

12:15.790 --> 12:16.210
that...

12:16.210 --> 12:17.050
Guapizcua?

12:17.250 --> 12:17.810
I don't know.

12:17.810 --> 12:18.530
Guipuzcoa.

12:19.250 --> 12:21.530
Found the suggestion offensive.

12:22.090 --> 12:27.010
This would certainly be in keeping with
the attitude of Moes Guipucoans who

12:27.010 --> 12:31.570
boasted that no Jew was even allowed to
remain overnight in their province.

12:32.230 --> 12:38.170
Perhaps Ignatius too shared the sentiments
of his fellow Guipucoans who assumed a

12:38.170 --> 12:42.430
superior stand to even old Christians from
other Spanish provinces.

12:43.250 --> 12:48.690
So his whole region and where he's from
they were basically racist towards the

12:48.690 --> 12:49.010
Jews.

12:49.330 --> 12:52.530
They weren't even allowed to stay there
overnight in the province.

12:53.730 --> 13:00.430
And some people would like me to believe
that Ignatius Loyola was a crypto-Jew and

13:00.430 --> 13:09.150
that somewhere in his Spanish noble racist
family, the Onaz of Loyola, somewhere they

13:09.150 --> 13:14.010
married a Murano and had babies.

13:14.630 --> 13:15.550
It's just not true.

13:15.910 --> 13:22.510
But that brings me to the final point I
would like to make and that is that I

13:22.510 --> 13:28.330
realise that Jews are involved in the
evils in this world but that does not mean

13:28.330 --> 13:31.650
that all Jews should be painted with the
same brush.

13:32.070 --> 13:39.410
If those opponents who want me to believe
that Loyola was a crypto-Jew, if they had

13:39.410 --> 13:44.470
done any research into the subject rather
than just believing what they heard on the

13:44.470 --> 13:50.550
internet, they would have known how to
cast doubt on my entire video because all

13:50.550 --> 13:59.250
these people need is just a mere sniff of
a Jew, the mere vapour of a Jew and it's

13:59.250 --> 14:04.650
all conspiracy and they're in on it and
they probably have a bank account with

14:04.650 --> 14:07.670
Rothschild and such and such and so on.

14:08.210 --> 14:09.590
This is how bad it's getting.

14:09.830 --> 14:15.950
The same kind of hostility towards the
Jews that has been around for thousands of

14:15.950 --> 14:22.070
years is re-emerging today, now,
with this whole attitude of blame it on

14:22.070 --> 14:25.090
the Jews, it's the Jews who are doing all
the evils in the world.

14:25.610 --> 14:30.710
Not until his years of study at the
University of Paris did Ignatius' more

14:30.710 --> 14:33.970
mature attitude become gradually
recognisable.

14:34.590 --> 14:41.730
There he met Diego Leonis, a young man who
had heard so much about Ignatius that

14:41.730 --> 14:47.730
after finishing his studies at Alcala in
1532, he went to meet him in Paris.

14:48.150 --> 14:52.790
Diego, whose father was a new Christian,
came from a well-to-do family.

14:53.750 --> 14:59.290
Though his Christian faith descended from
three generations, Diego, because of his

14:59.290 --> 15:04.030
great-grandfather's Jewish origin,
was still considered a Jew.

15:04.290 --> 15:09.850
So this information about Diego Leonis
will no doubt get the conspiracy theorists

15:09.850 --> 15:17.270
who want to blame everything on the Jews,
saying, see, see, the Jesuits were Jews.

15:18.210 --> 15:22.210
Yeah, but that's not true, that was only
one guy, Diego Leonis, right?

15:22.630 --> 15:26.490
And if you guys had known this,
you would have brought it up already.

15:27.290 --> 15:33.930
Diego Leonis ended up becoming the second
Superior General after Ignatius Loyola

15:33.930 --> 15:34.410
died.

15:34.950 --> 15:40.130
So what then, are we to think that the
Jesuits were Jews because of this?

15:40.810 --> 15:41.770
I think not.

15:42.450 --> 15:48.950
Because even though Ignatius Loyola was
favourable towards the Jews, the Pope

15:48.950 --> 15:55.050
eventually enacted a papal bill which
Ignatius did not object to.

15:55.970 --> 15:57.650
And the papal bill that I'm talking about.

15:57.650 --> 16:00.030
So the Bill Cum Nime Absurdum.

16:00.330 --> 16:05.250
Until 1555, Ignatius had dealt only with
Jews who wished to convert.

16:05.410 --> 16:11.630
The issue of the Bill Cum Nime Absurdum,
with its unparalleled restrictions on the

16:11.630 --> 16:16.510
Jews of Rome, provides us with the
opportunity to see Ignatius' attitude

16:16.510 --> 16:20.210
towards Jews who had no intention of
converting.

16:20.370 --> 16:26.950
Issued in 1555 by Pope Paul IV,
the papal document mirrors what many 16th

16:26.950 --> 16:29.730
century theologians had to say about the
Jews.

16:30.670 --> 16:31.850
You can pause it and read it.

16:32.210 --> 16:37.310
So the Bill continues that, bearing in
mind all these things, the Roman Church

16:37.310 --> 16:42.550
nevertheless tolerates Jews in the witness
of the true Christian faith, but that as

16:42.550 --> 16:45.730
long as they persist in their errors,
they will remain servants and the

16:45.730 --> 16:47.930
Christians will be the only free people.

16:48.470 --> 16:54.450
To overcome the evil power the Jews were
gaining, the Holy See instituted measures

16:54.450 --> 16:56.510
of unprecedented harshness.

16:57.230 --> 17:02.570
The first of these was the establishment,
for the first time in Rome and other papal

17:02.570 --> 17:06.230
cities, of obligatory Jewish quarters.

17:06.930 --> 17:13.210
After more than 1500 years of continuous
residence in Rome, the Jews were to live

17:13.210 --> 17:17.130
in a ghetto with only one gate to enter
by.

17:17.130 --> 17:22.610
That's right folks, the Holy Roman Empire
was the one that started the Jewish

17:22.610 --> 17:23.270
ghettos.

17:24.210 --> 17:25.590
It did not come by the Nazis.

17:26.450 --> 17:28.070
It was the Holy Roman Empire.

17:28.350 --> 17:33.190
Speaking of Nazis though, there was one
famous Jew that lived in a German ghetto,

17:33.410 --> 17:37.830
a Holy Roman Empire Jewish ghetto,
and that was Mayor D.

17:38.030 --> 17:38.590
Rothschild.

17:38.790 --> 17:43.130
It goes on to say, all synagogues except
one in each city were to be destroyed,

17:43.510 --> 17:49.390
and all Jews were to wear badges to
indicate their Jewishness, and Ignatius

17:49.390 --> 17:51.270
Loyola went along with this.

17:52.050 --> 17:56.230
For the first time, papal policy was aimed
primarily at converting Jews to

17:56.230 --> 18:00.270
Christianity, whereas in the past there
was only a vague expectation that the Jews

18:00.270 --> 18:01.810
would eventually be converted.

18:02.350 --> 18:06.230
So it goes on to say, the Jews are
tolerated to the end that they may be

18:06.230 --> 18:06.890
converted.

18:08.390 --> 18:09.130
So Fr.

18:09.690 --> 18:14.290
Giacomo Martina has traced the thinking
behind the bull to a long line of Catholic

18:14.290 --> 18:19.770
theologians who, beginning with Augustine,
developed a theological foundation for

18:19.770 --> 18:25.690
anti-Jewish sentiment, using St. Paul's
example of the Old Testament figures of

18:25.690 --> 18:34.310
Jacob, Esau, Sabaoth and Agar,
using Romans 9.13 and Galatians 4.22-31 to

18:34.310 --> 18:37.530
show Christianity's superiority over
Judaism.

18:38.290 --> 18:42.490
Augustine added a more temporal
interpretation to Paul's doctrine.

18:43.550 --> 18:48.350
The Jews, like Esau, have lost their
birthright and must now serve their

18:48.350 --> 18:49.430
younger brother Jacob.

18:51.190 --> 18:57.710
So it's the Catholic Church that came up
with replacement theology and it's they

18:57.710 --> 19:02.410
who first claimed that they've lost their
birthright and they tried to use scripture

19:02.410 --> 19:03.910
to defend it.

19:04.110 --> 19:09.710
So in 1555 and for many years afterward,
the Pope, as head of the government of the

19:09.710 --> 19:16.790
papal states, quite openly violated the
equality and human dignity of the Jews and

19:16.790 --> 19:18.990
precisely for religious reasons.

19:20.170 --> 19:25.550
When the Bill was published, Ignatius sent
copies of it far and wide with

19:25.550 --> 19:30.730
instructions to pass them around to other
Jesuit houses after they had been read.

19:31.450 --> 19:36.650
In this way, he not only helped promulgate
the Bill, but he seems to have agreed with

19:36.650 --> 19:36.830
it.

19:37.250 --> 19:42.570
In a letter to the rectors of Jesuit
colleges, he comments that the Bill contra

19:42.570 --> 19:49.310
Los Judios against the Jews is very
necessary in those lands where they are

19:49.310 --> 19:53.630
permitted to live, which also suggests
that he thought the Jews were somehow

19:53.630 --> 19:58.750
foreigners in a country they had occupied
longer than the Christians, which seems to

19:58.750 --> 20:05.050
be a common theme amongst modern
conspiracy theorists, that Jews are

20:05.050 --> 20:10.030
somehow foreigners in a country they had
occupied longer than Palestinians,

20:10.590 --> 20:11.170
for example.

20:11.990 --> 20:16.710
And we'll get to history of Israel and
Palestine in a future video.

20:17.190 --> 20:21.170
But what's apparent here is the agreement
with this unjust Bill.

20:22.030 --> 20:24.730
Ignatius was guilty of the blindness of
his time.

20:25.050 --> 20:31.350
You see, when it comes to the end of the
day, the Jesuits serve the Pope.

20:31.770 --> 20:36.310
It goes on to say it should come as no
surprise that Ignatius did indeed approve

20:36.310 --> 20:36.910
of the Bill.

20:37.350 --> 20:41.530
A hopeless victim of the blindness of his
peers, while he seemed to have agreed with

20:41.530 --> 20:48.230
the Bill and the establishment of the
ghetto, showing a religious anti-Judaism,

20:48.770 --> 20:53.890
he in no way shared what he called the
temperament of his fellow Spaniards,

20:54.750 --> 20:57.970
a phobia and dislike for all Jews,
converted or not.

20:58.270 --> 21:02.590
If we distinguish between race and
religion, we find that although Ignatius

21:02.590 --> 21:07.230
shared the strong feelings against the
Jewish religion and all who practiced it,

21:07.690 --> 21:12.510
he clearly transcended his age and his
open-mindedness towards the Jews as a race

21:12.510 --> 21:13.010
of people.

21:13.510 --> 21:18.510
So there were some Jesuits that were Jews,
but they were not crypto-Jews.

21:18.630 --> 21:21.190
It was well known that these people were
new Christians.

21:21.530 --> 21:25.550
They did not practice Judaism,
because if they did, they would have been

21:25.550 --> 21:29.630
treated like how Rome treated Jews who
refused to convert.

21:30.270 --> 21:32.830
They would have been killed or expelled
from the land.

21:34.890 --> 21:39.750
And Loyola was in favour of that,
to protect the one true faith.

21:39.970 --> 21:41.050
What happened next?

21:42.010 --> 21:46.570
Does this give ammo to fire at the Jewish
New World Order?

21:47.010 --> 21:49.010
Well, it would certainly seem that way.

21:49.730 --> 21:53.330
But let's not get ahead of ourselves,
because there's still a lot of history

21:53.330 --> 22:01.110
that follows the appointment of a Jew,
or at least by ancestry, Diego Lienes to

22:01.110 --> 22:02.130
the Superior General.

22:02.550 --> 22:06.390
What happened after that, however,
should be taken note of.

22:06.790 --> 22:07.630
Here we go...

22:07.630 --> 22:12.850
The press for restrictive legislation did
not stop at the death of the first

22:12.850 --> 22:14.230
general, Loyola.

22:14.670 --> 22:19.390
Even in the time of Lienes, the second
Superior General of the Jesuits,

22:19.890 --> 22:25.210
who was himself of Jewish blood,
there were renewed attempts to restrict

22:25.210 --> 22:27.830
admission of new Christians to the
society.

22:28.890 --> 22:34.130
The third general, Francis Boroggia,
also endured and resisted the same

22:34.130 --> 22:40.010
harangue as Ignatius from advocates in
Spain of the purity of blood.

22:41.130 --> 22:46.930
But it was not until the time of the fifth
general, Claudio Aquaviva, that those who

22:46.930 --> 22:50.310
sought to exclude anyone from Jewish
lineage finally won out.

22:50.310 --> 22:57.270
In 1592, Aquaviva wrote to the Provincials
of Spain, that's the Jesuits, ordering

22:57.270 --> 23:00.910
them not to receive new Christians into
the society.

23:01.510 --> 23:08.090
The final blow to the Ignatian attitude of
openness came in 1593 at the fifth general

23:08.090 --> 23:12.050
congregation, that's where they decide the
Superior General.

23:12.710 --> 23:17.950
With the passage of its decree 52,
no one of Jewish or Muslim backgrounds

23:17.950 --> 23:20.090
could ever enter the society.

23:20.370 --> 23:23.890
Further, not even the general could
dispense from this impediment.

23:24.290 --> 23:29.150
The characteristic outlook of the Spanish
elite had finally won out.

23:29.610 --> 23:34.570
The matter was again raised in the sixth
general congregation in 1608, and the

23:34.570 --> 23:40.230
decree was mitigated to exclude only those
whose Christianity could not be traced to

23:40.230 --> 23:41.230
five generations.

23:42.570 --> 23:46.470
This impediment was commonly called the
impediment of origin.

23:46.950 --> 23:52.910
These rules stood unchanged until the
general congregation in 1928, a time which

23:52.910 --> 23:57.850
we can now see the first effective
beginnings of the desire for adaptation to

23:57.850 --> 24:04.370
modern circumstances, which produced the
Vatican Council too, and with it has

24:04.370 --> 24:05.470
become so strong.

24:06.370 --> 24:11.990
In a similar fashion, the impediment of
origin remained unchanged from 1593 until

24:11.990 --> 24:18.430
well into our 20th century, it was 1946 to
be exact, as we see here.

24:19.690 --> 24:25.230
The general congregation, convened in
1946, as soon as possible after the close

24:25.230 --> 24:28.270
of World War II, abrogated the impediment
of origin.

24:29.070 --> 24:36.150
So you can see that from 1593 to 1946,
no Jew or Muslim was allowed in the

24:36.150 --> 24:36.630
Jesuits.

24:36.630 --> 24:43.050
There was only a few of them originally,
and they were not Crypto-Jews.

24:43.190 --> 24:45.570
It was well known that they were Jews,
they were not hidden.

24:45.890 --> 24:54.510
So this, I feel, goes a long way to
debunking any notion that Zionist Jews

24:54.510 --> 24:57.350
created the Jesuits.

24:57.890 --> 25:01.950
The Jesuits wanted to convert Jews and
kill anyone that didn't.
