THE TOWER OF BABYLON WAS DESTROYED AND APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN ERECTED IN STRASBOURG, FRANCE FOR THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT. The Design Of The Building Suggests That It Is To Be Destroyed Once A One World Government Has Been Instituted. Whatever the case, it appears that what has been predicted the Bible is happening before our very eyes.

 From Money Circus January 21, 2024:

The European Commission is unelected; its bureaucrats and commissioners are appointed. As legislatures and political parties become less representative, a growing chorus is worrying that the people will see no reason to obey.

The kommissars therefore ponder if the best way to stop opposition is to ban it.

The EC president Ursula von der Leyen told the World Economic Forum that “for the global business community, the top concern for the next two years is not conflict or climate. It is disinformation and misinformation.”

As the European Commission is run by corporations and bureaucrats — the Parliament is purely advisory, largely toothless — she was telling the truth when she said she spoke for “the global business community.”

European Members of Parliament (MEPs) last week voted 349 to 254 to keep the Commission’s contracts with Pfizer and other Covid-19 “vaccine” companies a secret, successfully blocking public access to vital data regarding the EU’s dealings with shady Big Pharma enterprises.

It is little surprise that the European Parliament building in Strasbourg is redolent of the Tower of Babel, whose construction God confounded by making the people speak different languages. Does that hint at the power dynamics desired by the owner investors?


From Giovanni "Johnny" Cirucci:

The Bible records that, from the beginning of mankind’s existence, he has rebelled against God.  In fact, many stories recount people’s attempts to distance themselves from the true Creator in act of defiance.  The Tower of Babel was on of the first examples of such behavior as written in Genesis 11:1-4.

Now the whole world had one language and a common speech.  As people moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar and settled there.

They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.”  They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar.  Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.” ~ Genesis 11:1-4 – NIV

Before God intervened by confusing their languages and scattering the people across the Earth as depicted in Genesis 11:5-9, people were worshiping Bel (Baal), the god of Babylon under the control and influence of Nimrod.  It was clear to the Lord that whenever people get together in apparent harmony in the name of world peace without the King of kings, Jesus Christ, immediate plans to overthrown Him would follow.

The superstate known as the European Union (EU) seems to have plans to accomplish what its ancestors could not do with the Tower of Babel.  This time backed up by the fourth beast, the Vatican, and its soldiers, the Jesuit Order.  The idea the European States should unite in order to avoid conflict between themselves is a product of Hegelian dialect as the major wars are known to be manipulated in accordance with the will of the elites.

The New Tower of Babel

The EU is currently composed by 28 member states that agreed to form a political-economic that aims the free circulation of people, goods, services, and capital.  Nevertheless, its Parliament building in the city of Strasbourg, France stroke the attention of many who saw eerie similarity with the Tower of Babel depicted by artist Pieter Bruegel.  The unfinished portion at the top of the Parliament building is explained in metaphoric terms related to the ongoing transformation of the European culture. However, the resemblance is so evident that even Jesuit trained and Roman-Catholic raised Glenn Beck had to point it out.

eu-babel

many-tongues-one-voiceThis fact can’t be denied as one examines the official EU poster once put out to promote the EU Parliament.  Apparently, its Luciferian references were so blatant that it was withdrawn thanks to Christian’s protests.

The tower in the center is a clear depiction of Bruegel’s Tower of Babel, which makes nearly impossible to deny where their inspiration for this enterprise came from.  At the top of the tower, it’s possible to see 11 upside down stars, or pentagrams.  This symbolism is oftentimes used by dark occultist in order to conjure up the powers of evil.  Moreover, the motto read at the bottom right corner which reads “Europe: many tongues, one voice” is a clear allusion to the confusion of tongues promoted by God.  However, the statement makes clear that despite the apparent differences in language and costumes, the members of the European Union think and act as one voice. The elite ambition to exalt themselves above the Lord and finally finish Nimrod’s work was never extinguished and it’s as strong as ever before.

Catholic Roots of the EU

The founding fathers of the European Union project, which started out in 1952 as the European Coal and Steel Community, were known to be devout Catholics and as a consequence were greatly influenced by the Encyclicals put out by Popes Leo XIII and Pius XI. Catholic historian Alan Fimister affirms that on his interview to Zenit.

The first European Community was the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) from which the other communities developed. These were eventually merged into the European Community and then placed within the larger framework of the European Union, which now includes intergovernmental cooperation on security and foreign affairs as well as the “communitarian” supranational tasks of the original community.

The political leaders who founded the ECSC were overwhelmingly Catholic: Robert Schuman was intensely loyal to the faith and affirmed publicly that papal encyclicals “define Catholic doctrine and bind in conscience” Konrad Adenauer and Alcide de Gaspari were also particularly important. The coal and steel plan was drawn up by an official, Jean Monnet, who became the first man to hold the office which is now called President of the Commission. He was not a committed Catholic but the essential architecture for the institutions was already being advocated by Schuman before Monnet came to him with his own project.

Adenauer and de Gaspari were both strongly influenced by Leo XIII’s teaching and its intellectual legacy. Schuman was directly influenced by Maritain’s conception of supranational democracy as the foundation for a New Christendom. “Europe,” said Schuman, is “the establishment of a generalized democracy in the Christian sense of the word.” ~ Interview of Catholic historian Alan Fimister to Zenit

Konrad Adenauer would be one of the six European leaders that agreed to the Treaty of Rome of 1957 that eventually helped solidify the creation of the EU.  Five of the six signatories went from the Capitoline Hill to the Vatican for a Papal blessing.  Interestingly, the document signed that day was blank.

thomas-aquinasThomas Aquinas, a famous Catholic philosopher and theologian, greatly influenced the work of Pope Leo XIII and his many Encyclicals on social justice.  Thomism as a philosophical school that teaches among other things that the possession of things in common is the natural law which enforces the socialist idea of communal possessions.  In his Summa Theologica, Aquinas lays down the Vatican’s communist agenda of wealth redistribution and social justice.

Community of goods is ascribed to the natural law, not that the natural law dictates that all things should be possessed in common and that nothing should be possessed as one’s own: but because the division of possessions is not according to the natural law, but rather arose from human agreement which belongs to positive law, as stated above (II-II:57:3). Hence the ownership of possessions is not contrary to the natural law, but an addition thereto devised by human reason. ~ Summa Theologica1

Pope Leo XIII went on to write the Encyclical Rerum Novarum, which to this date is seen as one of the most influential Vatican document on social justice.  The document and himself were heavily influenced by Jesuit scholar Luigi Taparelli.  In fact, Taparelli is claimed to have coined the term “social justice” and Rerum Novarum clearly channels his socialist ideas with terms such as “proletarian” and phrases like “…the spirit of revolutionary change…”.

Exactly 40 years later, Pope Pius XI issued the encyclical Quadragesimo anno that covered the ethical implications of the social and economic order.  Similar to Rerum Novarum, Jesuit theologians such as German social philosophers Gustav Gundlach and Königswinterer Kreis contributed with the document formulation . Roman Catholic theologian and sociologist Oswald von Nell-Breuning was also critical in the encyclical drafting.

For the most part, Quadragesimo anno reiterates and salutes Pope’s Leo XIII encyclical as an instrumental tool that legitimated an effective influence of the Church over government affairs. The following quote from Quadragesimo anno reaffirmed that Roman Catholic principles had in fact permeated secular venues without being noticed.

Under the guidance and in light of Leo’s encyclical was thus evolved a truly Christian social science, which continues to be fostered and enriched daily by the tireless labours of those picked men whom we have named the auxiliaries of the Church…The doctrine of Rerum Novarum began little by little to penetrate among those who, being outside Catholic unity, do not recognize the authority of the Church; and these Catholic principles of sociology gradually became part of the intellectual heritage of the whole human race…Thus too, we rejoice that the Catholic truths proclaimed so vigorously by our illustrious Predecessor [Leo XIII in 1891’s Rerum Novarum], are advanced and advocated not merely in non-Catholic books and journals, but frequently also in legislative assemblies and in courts of justice. ~ Pius XI2

Oswald von Nell-Breuning, who also was a Jesuit, developed the principle of subsidiarity which plays a key role in the political interplay between the EU governing body and its members.  In short, it guarantees every member state is able to take actions to achieve its objectives. However, whenever it’s not possible the EU may interfere for the good of all.

Ultimately, these teachings would form the basis for the Jesuit created doctrine of Communism and it first application in their reduction settlements in South America. From there, it would be used again in countries like Russia and China via revolutionary Jesuit educated Karl Marx and Jesuit priest Joseph Stalin. Professor Walter J. Veith has a great teaching on Roman Catholic social justice.


“Founding Fathers”

In the same way as the American experiment, the EU has its own founding fathers.  However, while the former nation was constructed based on protestant ideology the later was a Vatican bastion since its inception. Most of the founders were Roman Catholic themselves and/or Jesuit trained.

eu-founding-fathers

The Roman Catholic faith of founding fathers like Konrad Adenauer, Alcide de Gasperi, and Robert Schuman was credited as the inspiration for creating the EU.  Pope John Paul II not only exalted the aforementioned founder, but also provided interesting information on what happened before the Treaty of Paris was signed.

Dear friends, in these days in which you are reflecting on Europe, it is natural to recall that among the principal promotors of the reunification of this continent were men inspired by profound Christian faith, like Adenauer, De Gasperi and Schuman.  How can we underestimate, for example, the fact that, in 1951, before beginning the delicate negotiations which would lead to the adoption of the Treaty of Paris, they wished to meet in a Benedictine monastery on the Rhine for meditation and prayer?3

The Roman Catholic Church started the process of canonization of both Robert Schuman and Alcide de Gasperi.  Schuman is backed by Polish Catholics that seem more careful of his candidacy than the Vatican itself.  If any of the processes goes through, it will be the first time a secular political leader is elevated to sainthood.  This only reflects the priceless contributions these men gave to the Vatican-Jesuit plans in Europe.

Marian Flag

The European flag, designed and adopted in the 1950s, is composed of 12 golden stars forming a circle on a blue background.  One of its designers is a German artist called Arsène Heitz.  He’s is a devout Roman Catholic and member of the Order of the Miraculous Medal, whose followers believe they can obtain special grace by wearing the medal of the Virgin Mary.  Paul Lévy, the other flag designer, was a Belgian of Jewish descendant that vowed to convert to Christianity if he survived the War.  Rather, he became a Roman Catholic.

The speculations involving Marian influence in the flag design were confirmed in an interview Heitz gave to Lourdes magazine and  in a testimony of a Catholic priest called Pierre Caillon at the time when meeting Heitz.

Secondly, it is worth noting the testimony of Father Pierre Caillon, who refers to a meeting with Arsène Heitz.  Caillon tells of having met the former Council of Europe employee by chance in August 1987 at Lisieux in front of the Carmelite monastery.  It was Heitz who stopped him and declared ‘I was the one who designed the European flag.  I suddenly had the idea of putting the 12 stars of the Miraculous Medal of the Rue du Bac on a blue field.  My proposal was adopted unanimously on 8 December 1955, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception.  I am telling you this, Father, because you are wearing the little blue cross of the Blue Army of Our Lady of Fatima’(272) .4

eu-marian-flag

The official explanation for the flag given by the Council of Europe in 1955 explains that the stars represent the European people united together.  The twelve stars are a symbol of completeness and perfection.  In fact, the number 12 is referenced in the Bible many times with strong connotations.

The Meaning of Numbers: The Number 12

Twelve can be found in 187 places in God’s word. Revelation alone has 22 occurrences of the number. The meaning of 12, which is considered a perfect number, is that it symbolizes God’s power and authority, as well as serving as a perfect governmental foundation. It can also symbolize completeness or the nation of Israel as a whole. For example, Jacob (Israel) had twelve sons, each of which represented a tribe begun by a prince, for 12 princes total. Ishmael, who was born to Abraham through Hagar, also had twelve princes.

God specified that twelve unleavened cakes of bread be placed every week in the temple with frankincense next to each of the two piles that were to be made. The priests were commanded to change the bread every Sabbath day (Leviticus 24).

Christ called and choose twelve men to bear witness to what he did and to spread the good news of the gospel to the entire world. After he was raised from the dead, Jesus told the eleven disciples (Judas had killed himself) that God had given him ALL power and authority in both earth and heaven (God’s divine authority – Matthew 28:18).

Twelve thousand from each tribe of Israel (144,000 total) will receive salvation during the end time’s Great Tribulation (Revelation 7). Another set of 144,000 (12 x 12,000) will be taken from earth in order to serve and follow the Lamb of God (Revelation 14:1 – 5). Christ’s bride in Revelation 12, the church, wears a crown containing twelve stars.

New Jerusalem, which is made in heaven and brought to the earth by God himself, contains 12 gates made of pearl which are each manned by an angel. Over each gate will be one of the names of Israel’s twelve tribes. The walls are 144 cubits high (12 multiplied by itself – Revelation 21:16 – 17), with the city itself being 12,000 furlongs square.5

Indeed, numerology is a key component in the Jesuit World Order machinations.  Boldly proclaiming their union as complete and perfect is a direct affront to the Lord and His Law.  Professor Javier Paredes from the University of Alcala Spain talks about another “coincidence” regarding numbers and dates.

“However, in Heitz’s soul the words of the Apocalypse were very present: ‘A great sign appeared in the Heavens: a Woman clothed with the sun and with the moon at her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.’ And, perhaps without realizing it, the delegates of the European Ministers officially adopted the design proposed by Heitz on the feast of Our Lady: December 8, 1955,” explained Prof.  Paredes.  “That’s a lot of coincidences, so henceforth it should not be difficult for us to discover in the folds of the Europeans’ flag the smile and affection of Our Mother, the Queen of Europe, ready to lend a hand in that great challenge that St.  Peter’s successor has proposed to us: to re-Christianize the Old Continent with the example of our lives and the testimony of our words.”6

Perhaps the term re-Christianize should be rewritten as counter-reform which better reflects the real  plans of the Jesuit Order.  It’s interesting to note that the city of Alcala in Spain was one of the favorite places of Ignatius Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus.

We are all Jesuits

It was with this bold statement that the former president of the European Council, Herman van Rompuy, was quoted by the Dutch Catholic newspaper: the ‘Katholiek Nieuwsblad’.  Dutch political analyst Derk Jan Eppink noticed well the similarities between the EU and Jesuit methodologies.

francis-with-eu-leadership

Listening to Van Rompuy, you will instantly notice the similarities of the Jesuits with Europe.  Jesuits formed the vanguard of the Catholic Church, like the European elite is the vanguard of the European integration.  Both portray themselves as ‘the elite’, elevated above the ordinary people.  Their methods are very similar.  A sophisticated lie or purposeful deception is allowed when framed in the interest of the greater goal.  A barely contained cynicism typifies the attitude toward the normal citizen, the ignorant fool, who within a democracy needs to be protected from himself.  The Catholic and European elites work through inner circles.  The rest is prose.  Van Rompuy, Barroso, Monti and Rajoy are frequent visitors at papal audiences.7

Once one starts to investigate some of the people who occupy the highest offices in the EU, it’s clear that Rompuy is being truthful and accurate.

  • French politician and Roman Catholic Jacques Delors was president of the European Commission from 1985 to 1995. Wikipedia in French states he went to the Lycée Blaise-Pascal, listed as a former Jesuit school.  He also taught at the Ecole Nationale d’Administration (ENA) founded by Michel Debré. Debré himself studied at the Lycée Louis-le-Grand, “The Jesuit College of Paris”.  It would be plausible that Delors came in contact with the Jesuits either during his secondary education or during the time he was at ENA;
  • Luxembourg politician Jacques Santer, also Roman Catholic, was the European Commission President from 1995 to 1999. He graduated from the Athénée de Luxembourg, a Jesuit high school;
  • Italian Roman Catholic, economist and politician Romano Prodi was the European Commission President from 1999 to 2004. He was thoroughly involved with Goldman Sachs, which was quoted by Pope Benedict XVI as doing the “work of God”.  Prodi became a teaching assistant for Beniamino Andreatta, an Italian economist and politician.  Andreatta studied at the Liceo Classico Giovanni Prati in Trento, which is run by the Jesuits.  It’s conceivable that Andreatta would pass his Jesuit training on to one of his collaborators, Prodi;
  • Roman Catholic Portuguese Jose Manuel Barroso was the European Commission President from 2004 to 2014. Currently, Barroso works for Goldman Sachs International.  He did PhD research at Jesuit Georgetown University.  He also has a degree for the same institution on Leadership Seminar;
  • Roman Catholic, Belgian politician Herman Van Rompuy was the first president of the European Council from 2010 to 2014. Rompuy attended St John Berchmans College in Brussels, which is Jesuit secondary school.  Later on, he worked as a lecturer at the Lessius Hogeschool, a Catholic college named after Jesuit Leonard Lessius;
  • Donald Tusk is Roman Catholic, Polish politician that has been the president of the European Council since 2014. Tusk was an active organizer and supporter of the Solidarity Trade Union in Poland, a movement that was greatly influenced by the Catholic social teaching.  He wrote his M.A.  thesis under professor Roman Wapiński advisory at the University of Gdańsk.  Wapiński received his Doctor honoris cause from the University of Wrocław, which was early converted into a Jesuit school and an important instrument of the Counter-Reformation;
  • Jean-Claude Juncker is a Roman Catholic, Luxembourgish politician that has been the president of the European Commission since 2014. Juncker has been a strong proponent of open border policies even to the extreme of menacing to fine countries that are not welcoming to refugees.  Juncker was also implicated in tax avoidance scams in his home country.  He attended the Lycée Michel-Rodange in Luxembourg to finish his secondary education.  The first director of Juncker’s high-school came, Pierre Goedert, was a professor in the Lycée de Garçons in Luxembourg, which was an annex of the Athénée de Luxembourg.  The Athénée is known for being a Jesuit institution.  Moreover, Juncker’s Lycée Michel-Rodange and the Jesuit Athénée de Luxembourg belong to the same campus, the so called Campus Geesseknäppchen. Both schools are very close to each other which makes it not difficult for Juncker obtain his Jesuit education during that period.

jean-claude-junckerBrexit: The Latest Deception

Many believed the result of June 2016 Referendum that voted for the withdraw of the UK from the EU was a great blow to the globalists and their New World Order.  Brexit was also taken as a protestant response to the Roman/Vatican tradition of centralization of power.  It’s interesting to note that some Catholics believe that the reason the EU is falling apart is because it became godless and, for that reason, needs to come back to its Catholic roots.  Similarly to the researchers who claim that only recently the Vatican is being taken by malignant forces, people hold to the idea that only now the EU has turned away from God.  In reality, it has always been this way and it was planned to be like this.

Nevertheless, there are always those skeptical enough that prefer to analyze the situation without being influenced by the media.  One of them is Professor Veith who again has a great take on Brexit in light of Bible prophecy.

It’s very important not to forget that the British crown belongs to Rome and the Pope since king John (1167-1216) gave Concession of England and Ireland to Pope Innocent III.  This was done as the king wanted to have a lift on his excommunication and the interdict placed on the churches of England following a quarrel with the Pope over choosing a new archbishop of Canterbury.  King John ended up capitulating to the Pope as he was facing pressure from invasions and revolts of his own people.  As a result of king John’s surrender to the Vatican, Pope Innocent III declared the Magna Carta just signed by the king as invalid.

King John broke the terms of this charter by signing the Magna Carta on June 15, 1215.  Remember; the penalty for breaking the 1213 agreement was the loss of the Crown (right to the kingdom) to the Pope and his Roman Church.  It says so quite plainly.  To formally and lawfully take the Crown from the royal monarchs of England by an act of declaration, on August 24, 1215, Pope Innocent III annulled the Magna Carta; later in the year, he placed an Interdict (prohibition) on the entire British empire.  From that time until today, the English monarchy and the entire British Crown belonged to the Pope. ~ Khondakar Golam Mowla, The Judgment Against Imperialism, Fascism and Racism Against Caliphate and Islam volume 2 (AuthorHouse, 2008)

prince-john-gives-crown-to-papal-legate

From that time on, the British Crown belonged legally to the Pope.  Bearing that in mind, it’s reasonable to think that any major decision taken by the British government or the Queen has to have the approval of the Vatican.  Including, of course, Brexit.  It’s also critical to point out that, as Vatican City and Washington DC, the city of London is a sovereign state.  It has its own territory, flag, police and role, which in the case of the City of London is to be the financial center of the world.  The former mayor of the City of London, Boris Johnson, was in favor of Brexit while the Prime Minister David Cameron was not.  Despite that, Cameron was the one who called for a referendum, which result only brought him trouble.

Following Cameron’s resignation, Theresa May assumed as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.  If Hillary Clinton is elected the 45th president of the United States, three of the most powerful nations of the world will be controlled by women: Angela Merkel in Germany, Theresa May in UK, and Hillary Clinton in the US.  This corroborates what the prophet Isaiah foresaw for our future when men are not strong and ethical enough to take the lead.

Youths oppress my people, women rule over them.  My people, your guides lead you astray; they turn you from the path. ~ Isaiah 3:12

Theresa May’s first statement as Prime Minister echoes the Catholic social justice doctrine.

That means fighting against the burning injustice that, if you’re born poor, you will die on average 9 years earlier than others.  If you’re black, you’re treated more harshly by the criminal justice system than if you’re white.  If you’re a white, working-class boy, you’re less likely than anybody else in Britain to go to university.  If you’re at a state school, you’re less likely to reach the top professions than if you’re educated privately.  If you’re a woman, you will earn less than a man.  If you suffer from mental health problems, there’s not enough help to hand.  If you’re young, you’ll find it harder than ever before to own your own home. ~ Theresa May’s First Statement as Prime Minister, July 13, 2016

johnson-and-cameronCould it be only a theater between Johnson and Cameron? The mainstream media has depicted them as rivals, although is more probable both politicians were working together to achieve the same goal.  It’s unarguably that both are insiders when it comes to the Jesuit World Order.  David Cameron has even attended secret meetings of the Billdeberg Group, a secretive gathering of the most powerful men in the world founded by the Jesuit Józef Hieronim Retinger.  Perhaps the Great Britain had to leave the EU in order for the City of London to separate from Europe and occupy its position alongside the Vatican and the Washington DC as a sovereign state subjected only to the Crown, which means subjected to the Pope.  This would better fit the Scriptures with the Vatican as the beast in Revelation 17:12-13.

The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast.  13 They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast. ~ Revelation 17:12-13

The European Union is just one more of the Vatican’s monstrous enterprises that mainly seeks to dominate and subjugate the European citizen back to Rome.  The cunning Jesuit tactic of problem-reaction-solution has convinced many that in order to avoid conflict, it’s necessary to come together.  What the common person does not realize is that these conflicts were all engineered at the first place.  Ultimately, any gathering of states or institutions that do not have Christ in its core is at best, useless and at worst, dangerous.  Once detected, it’s pernicious plans must be exposed and combated.  The rulers of this world know their time is short as they are moving relentlessly to accomplish their goals.  Advancements in science and technology combined with centuries of Jesuit indoctrination provide the today’s elite with an unprecedented power to enslave humanity.  However, the Lord is sovereign and He’s allowing everything that is taking place.  Let’s see how high they build their tower this time before it succumbs to ruins.

Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against his anointed, saying,
“Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles.”
The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
“I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.”
I will proclaim the Lord’s decree: He said to me, “You are my son; today I have become your father.
Ask me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.
You will break them with a rod of iron; you will dash them to pieces like pottery.”
Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth.
Serve the Lord with fear and celebrate his rule with trembling.
Kiss his son, or he will be angry and your way will lead to your destruction, for his wrath can flare up in a moment.  Blessed are all who take refuge in him. ~ Psalm 2

Tony Blair: Rome’s Agent In London

Tony Blair, former Prime Minister of the UK from 1997 to 2007, was educated at St. John’s College, a Counter-Reformation Institution.  Blair only converted to Catholicism in 2007, soon after leaving office, giving the impression he took the decision once out of the spotlight.  His wife, practising Roman Catholic Cherie Blaire, had much to do with his choice.  She is known for her feminist ideologies, even giving a lecture at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas in Rome entitled The Church and Women’s Rights: time for a fresh perspective?  In 2006, Blaire signed the EU’s new Constitutional Treaty in Rome under a massive statue of Pope Innocent X only to underscore once more who really is in control.
