Foundation of the Church
In Ad 325, the Roman Catholic Church was created by a pagan Roman emperor named Constantine. It was only superficially a Christian Church because Constantine was a practitioner of several religions and his behavior comes into question for a so called "Christian". He sent prisoners of war to the lions, committed wholesale acts of genocide in his campaigns in North Africa, and was known for his overbearing, egotistical, ruthless and self-righteous behavior. Constantine apparently viewed Christianity as just one of the many cults of his realm, and he seemed to practice them all, apparently with the same depth of commitment. He wasn't actually baptized until he was on his death bed
The First Nicean Council ( a council to agree upon a uniform church to represent Christendom which was split on whether Jesus should be conidered God or the son of God) was assembled by Constantine to work out the details of his new church. While it was made up of Christian elders from five major Christian centers (Rome, Athens, Alexandria, Jerusalem and Antioch), it also included elders of all the major Pagan religions of Rome. Bishops from the cults of Mithras, Tammuz, Oannes (Dagon), Ceres, Janus, Bacchus, Apollo, Osiris, Jupiter, and Constantine's own religion: Sol Invictus (the official sun god of the later Roman empire), were invited. It was Constantine's wish that all of the Pagan religions, then at odds with each other, creating unnecessary conflicts, be unified into one "Catholic" church. "Catholic" means universal.
The institution of the papacy was built on the doctrine of being the successors of St. Peter as Bishop of Rome, and the first bishop. History, however, does not show Peter to have been in Rome, or to have ever been a bishop, anywhere. The first bishop of Rome was listed as St. Linus. "Peter of Rome" took the place of the Pet-Roma, which played a major part in the Eleusinian Mysteries (Greek initiation ceremonies). The statue of Jupiter in Rome came to be worshipped as the image of Peter, with the claim that it always had been the image of Peter.
An effective unification of all of Rome's religions had to not only include the major deities of those religions, but it also had to place them in a position subordinate to the new "High-god", who was to pull them all together, and to grant him the higher authority. The names of the disciples, then, corresponded to the names of those deities. Matthew was Mithras, Thomas - Tammuz, Mark - Mars, John - Oannes, Peter - Jupiter, Paul - Apollo. Even the Virgin Mary was a variation on older myths. The name "Jesus Christ" was actually a contraction on "Iesus" and "Christos". Iesus was adapted from the Greek, which is the masculine form of the Greek goddes of healing, who was known as Ieso. The name Jesus was originally known and spoken as Iesus, which is Latin, the language of the Roman Empire. The Hebrew name is Yahshua. Understand that the language barrier was not the issue in the changing of the Hebrew name. If it was, then everyone that speaks English would know it as "Joshua," the English translation of Yahshua meaning "Yah is Salvation."
Also the use of crosses, as symbols, was almost non-existent before. This was generally regarded as a violation of the second commandment, which the biblical Christ and his original followers kept.
Exodus 20:4-6
You shall not make for yourself any graven image, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing loving kindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments."
The new religion was not the old paganism, but really a new creation. It was a true blend, made up of various beliefs of the new members of the old cults. They took something from one and another and formed the whole into Christianity;
In many places the pagan temples were turned into Christian churches. The services of worship increased in splendor but were less spiritual and hearty than those of former times. "The forms and ceremonies of paganism gradually crept into the worship. Some of the old heathen feasts became church festivals with change of name and worship."
Rome uses rags or bones of saints to commemorate their deified heroes, as did Babylon. Both also artificially multiplied many fake relics for profit.
The Sign of the Cross
The sign of the cross originated in Babylon as a grand charm before prayer which drew the initial of the name Tammuz, Tau, or T. This same T can be found on the garments of Catholic priests. The nuns of Catholicism wore it on their necklaces. Bacchus wore a headband covered with crosses. The Buddhists wear them today. The cross was considered a divine tree, the tree of the gods, the tree of life and knowledge, and the product of whatever is good and desirable.
The pope is addressed as "Your Holiness," and his slipper is often kissed. He holds the keys of Janus and Cybele (on his robe), Peter's keys to Heaven, although Peter was probably never in Rome. History has confused the Pagan statue of Jupiter with Peter. It is curious that the title of the high priest of Babylon was pronounced "Peter." He was the grand interpreter, Roma.
I encourage you to look into all these things for yourself.
