In 1940 French statesman Baron DePonnat stated: “Roman Catholicism was born in blood, has wallowed in blood, has quenched its thirst in blood, and it is in letters of blood that its true history is written.” Indeed, the history of Papal Rome has been one of brutal torture, rape, butchery, slaughter, and mass murder! The below list provides but a small sampling of Papal Rome’s bloody history:

1. 1096 – Roman Catholic Crusaders slaughter half the Jews of Worms, Germany.

2. 1098 – Roman Catholic Crusaders slaughter almost all of the inhabitants of the city of Antioch.

3. 1099 – Roman Catholic Crusaders massacre 70,000 Muslims and Jews when they capture Jerusalem.

4. 1208-1226 (the Albigensian Crusades in southern France) – On July 22, 1209 Roman Catholic “Crusaders” slaughter the citizens (approx. 20,000) of Beziers, France (both Bible-believing Albigensian Christians and Catholics). By the time the Roman Catholic armies finish these “crusades”, almost the entire population of southern France (mostly Albigensian Christians) has been exterminated. (During six centuries of Papal Inquisition – starting in the 13^th century – up to 50 MILLION people are murdered!)

5. 1236 – Roman Catholic Crusaders slaughter Jews in the Anjou and Poitou regions of western France. (The Catholic Crusaders trample to death under their horses’ hoofs 3000 Jews who refuse baptism.)

6. 1243 – Roman Catholic mobs burn alive all Jews in Belitz, Germany (near Berlin).

7. 1298 – Roman Catholic mobs burn alive at the stake all Jews in Rottingen, Germany.

8. April 26, 1343 – Roman Catholic mobs burn to death all Jews in Germersheim, Germany.

9. 1348-1349 – The Roman Catholic Church blames the Jews for the “Black Death” (probably the bubonic plague). Author Dave Hunt tells us: “Accused of causing the ‘Black Death’, Jews were rounded up [Ed.: by Roman Catholic mobs] and hanged, burned, and drowned by the thousands in revenge.”

10. 1389 – Roman Catholic mobs murder 3000 Jews in Prague when they refuse to be baptized.

11. 1481-1483 – Roman Catholic authorities – at the direction of Roman Catholic Inquisitors – burn at the stake at least 2000 persons during the first two years of the Spanish Inquisition.

12. 1540-1570 – Roman Catholic armies butcher at least 900,000 Bible-believing Waldensian Christians (men, women, elderly, and children) during this 30-year period.

13. 1550-1560 – Roman Catholic troops slaughter at least 250,000 Dutch Protestants via torture, hanging, and burning during this ten-year period.

14. 1553-1558 – Roman Catholic Queen Mary I of England (a.k.a. “Bloody Mary”) attempts to bring England back under the yoke of Papal tyranny. During her evil reign, approximately 200 men and women are burned to death at the stake. Her victims include bishops, scholars, and other Protestant leaders.

15. 1572 – French Roman Catholic soldiers begin killing Protestants in Paris on the night of August 24, 1572 (the St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre). The soldiers kill at least 10,000 Protestants during the first three days. At least 8000 more Protestants are killed as the slaughter spreads to the countryside.

16. 1618-1648 – The Thirty Years’ War takes place. (This bloody religious war is planned, instigated, and orchestrated by the Roman Catholic Jesuit Order and its agents in an attempt to exterminate all Protestants in Europe.) In many parts of central Europe, up to half the population dies!

17. 1641-1649 – Eight years of Jesuit-instigated Roman Catholic butchery of Irish Protestants claims the lives of at least 100,000 Protestant men, women, and children.

18. 1685 – French Roman Catholic soldiers butcher approximately 500,000 French Protestants (Huguenots) on the orders of Roman Catholic King Louis XIV of France.

19. Approx. 1938 to 1945 – Roman Catholic dictators, such as Adolf Hitler, Monsignor Tiso, etc., slaughter approximately six MILLION Jews in Europe just prior to and during World War II.

20. 1941-1945 – The Roman Catholic Ustashi in the Fascist state of Croatia butcher up to one MILLION Serb Orthodox Christians. Roman Catholic killer squads are often led by Franciscan priests, monks, and friars. This genocide is choreographed by two Jesuit prelates: Aloysius Stepinac and Ivan Saric.
