Pope Thaller Cannonizes Roger Fabus, St. Roger Fabus
Decisive Action
03-12-2004, 07:05
The Pope of the Mississippian Roman Catholic Church, Herman Von Thaller I, has declared, "We hereby declare, that in accordance with the will of the Lord Jesus Christ, we declare Roger Fabus to be a saint and a prophet sent by God."
Currently Roger Fabus has a book of his predictions/prophecies that he started writing from age 13 on, when he claims a single voice commanded him, "Write" and what to write. At first he did nothing, thinking it was his imagination playing tricks. But then a force from all around his body pressed down on him and commanded, "Write!" and so he did write.
He has predicted various things, from the dates of birth of future children, the height and weight of his future children at their births. Important dates of future battles, the future map of the Federation, and other important dates.
As the Pope said, "From this day forward, Roger shall be referred to as St. Fabus."

Ooc- Yeah, sorry, you don't know what you're talking about. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Christ was God made man. Go to church or read your bible. Just don't listen to the Pope.

"This is Joseph Mladic of the White Peoples Radio and Television Network. The Czar, Saint Roger Fabus, is beginning to work, under the instruction of the Lord God, on a new Gospel, the Gospel according to Roger, which will be placed in all Mississippian Roman Catholic Bibles. For the record though, the Czar is Russian Orthodox."

OOC: I'm not a religious guy, and I'm certainly not Catholic by any stretch of the imagination, but from what I've read, I'm pretty sure that the requirements for Canonisation (in the Roman Catholic Religion, not sure about Anglican/Protestant, Eastern Orthodox, etc) include:
- Being Dead
- At least three Church-recognised "Miracles" from the person up for Canonisation
- The founding of their own Religious Order during their lifetime
The Imperial Intelligence Service would be happy to help out with the first requirement ;), but the others might require some work...
"Now, I may not be a man of the cloth, but I can definetly say that Roger is not a saint. The policies that he and his government pursue are definetly NOT what the Lord Jesus would want us to do.
Fabus, I challenge you to answer these questions.
Does Jesus advocate killing others?
Does Jesus believe all men are equal?
Does Jesus believe that the Jews have a right to exist? (Oh, yes, HE WAS A JEW!)
And, finally, does Jesus advocate murdering others who don't profess unswerving loyalty to your government?

And on the eighth day God created stupidity and it was manifest. It manifested in every nation under any Domain but in Mississippi it manifested itself wholly. And then God was pleased for the forces of Satan were weakened such.

"Christ stated that many unbelievers and sinners will be killed by the army of his faithful in the end times, as will demons and beasts. So yes to the first question."
"Christ never made statements about the equality of all men, for we are not all equal in the eyes of God."
"John 8:44, Jesus to the Jews, "Ye are of your father the devil", how then could Christ be part of this group of people? His father is God, not Satan."
"Render on to Ceasar, that which is Ceasar's, yes, loyalty to the government is commanded."
"I hope that helps you."

28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?" 29 "The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: `Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' 31 The second is this: `Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." 32 "Well said, teacher," the man replied. "You are right in saying that God is one and there is no other but him. 33 To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices." 34 When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." And from then on no one dared ask him any more questions.

A message from Cardinal James Kliptnock of the Roman Catholic Church of Risban.
"This is wrong. Ahem. Quotes:
My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires. [James 1:19-20]
Love thy neighbors as thyself.
DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU.
Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, they have their reward. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth.
If anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also; and if anyone would sue you and take your coat, let him have your cloak as well; and if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Mt 5:39b-41
These are merely a few! And it if pure Christian FACT that Jesus was Jew! His apostles were Jews, His mother was a Jew, He was a Jew. He celebrated Jewish holidays and went through Jewish rituals. Christianity did not come around until after the Christ was dead!
This is an outrage against Christians! You twist around Christ's words and teaching just as Satan did. The Catholic Church of Risban calls for the excommunication of Roger Fabus- the AntiChrist!"
Personal note from Alexander Perkins, Minister of Foreign Affairs for Risban.
"Emperor Scorpius wishes to let Roger Fabus know that he does not openly support Cardinal Kliptnock, but does not disagree with him either. The Emperor wishes to make it known that Risban is not planning any type of military action against your nation."

John 8:44 EXACT "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer in the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar and father of it."
Just though I'd finish that. Jesus said that after being accused of a sin. He was born a Jew. And was sent ot be the Mesiah of the Jews to regain their Home Land. Which is why Moses led the Hebrews from Egypt. Jesus never intended to start Christianity but to et the Jews know he had come to give them back their land, but the Romans ruled Jerusalem and didn't like anyone speaking out against their Pagan Beliefs

Yes, I believe that is what it is, except I do not believe you need your own religious order. Besides, without the Jewish faith, Christianity would never of existed (the Old Testament is, of course, the Hebrew texts). To me, this sounds like a way to glorify this nation's leader, and I'm sure he had a hand in it, and I don't mean religious

I don't really see why people are getting so worked up... I mean in order to recognise this each nation would need to recognise Decisive Action as having the Pope, which most nations don't concider to be the case. Many nations have claimed Popes in Nationstates, but the one I'm sticking with personally is the Pope in Holy Vatican See, a nation which RPs the Vatican in Nationstates and has probably one of the most recognised Pope in NS.
Seeing as the religion only really allows for one "Pope" all others are not part of our religion and as such don't count in our view. I suppose you could concider it an insult to your religion for another person claiming to be Pope to make someone a Saint, but mostly the Iuthian religious community are ignoring the claims and assuming it's a completely different religion all together.

Finally, someone who realises that these stinking mammals are little more than weak creatures! Creatures which smell ridiculously awful, I might add.

Creation
One momant saw the Cannonization of Roger Fabus, Czar of Decisive Action.
But this moment in itself was too much. Watching the sin of Mississippi unfolding to new heights, to new qualities of desperate heresy and evil, of lies and sin, The Lord decided that it was time to end it.
And another moment saw a bright light, a thunder beyond thunder, a choir of Seraphim descended upon Mississippi, and their song was beautiful to those of good intentions and true believes, and it was a plague, a turture to those of evil intentions, to those who denied their coloured brethren their most basic rights.
And as they sang their song of perfect beauty and symmetry, as a light as pure as the sun itself shined upon those lands, cursed by its rulers, yet blessed by the holy presence of the Seraphim, its brightness not hurting the eyes of those seein it, its perfection touching, raising everything to a new level of perfection and understanding, the song formed words as the Seraphim spoke the truth.
They sang about the ways with which Roger Fabus and Herman Von Thaller had attempted to corrupt the hearts of their people. They sang about the truth, the truth that The Lord loves all of his children, equally, regardless of gender or colour, or any other differences, even religion, between them. They sang about this, and many other things, and they sang a song about how the people of Mississippi would have to rise, to punish those who had seduced, betrayed them, to end evil and to eventually, finally follow the true path, the path of enlightment, the path of pure beauty, the path the Seraphim were showing to them.
And everyone, be it men, women, or children, black or white people, christians jews, everyone in Mississippi heard the song, and the Seraphim knew that they would understand.
That they would change.
And many tears were wept, many truths were told, many lies uncovered.
And in this moment of perfect beauty and absolute truth, the world, or at least Mississippi, changed.
And at last, they spoke, no, sang the final words.
You, people of Fabus, and those who helped him, repent, for your punishment will be severe, yet, even you, corrupted by darkness, by satan, as you are, shall find salvation in The Lord's infinite love, and you shall be forgiven, when the time has come.
Your ways have come to an end, and the future shall bea bright one. A future of the people, a future without you.
And as they sang this words, eternal beauty for those of pure intentions, cruel pain for those with evil in their hearts, they left the lands, lands just blessed by them, lands that would now once again be lands of beauty and perfection, as the Seraphim took them from those who missused them, and gave them to those who would treasure and love them, to create paradise on earth.
