  • The Occult Undercurrents of the European Union
    The Occult Undercurrents of the European Union The subject that has been headline news in all the papers and television in the UK for some time is – the European Referendum. Oh no! You cry, not more of that! It is, however, not just a political or economic issue, about massive immigration or European laws against our own, or even our sovereignty which is extremely important; for if we stay in Europe we can say goodbye to our democracy which has been our standard since the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215! Do we really want to be a small ‘one twenty-eighth’ of the EU and ‘in thrall’ to unelected European bureaucrats? Valid reasons to ponder on are below, and these are facts that will not emerge from the lips of any ‘Remain’ or ‘Brexit’ proponent because the real reason we ought to leave is not political or economic, but spiritual! Whilst the politicians are boring everyone rigid with their tales of gloom and doom and instilling fear into those susceptible, it seems that they have no idea whatsoever of the true nature of the European beast, and yet she has shown us her true colours since her inception. The European beast has a spiritual heart disguised by its policy making powers. The Treaty of Rome, an international agreement, which brought into being the European Union, was signed on 25 th of March 1957 by Belgium, France, Luxemburg, Italy, the Netherlands and West Germany. Notice that it was called the ‘Treaty of Rome’ this is important, for, in short, the European Union demonstrates rebellion against God in more than one way, and is a revival of the old Holy Roman Empire.

The question, however, remains as to what extent this report- ed scepticism truly reflects people’s opinions and feelings about Europe. We all consider it normal to cross borders within Europe, often while using the same money, as well as to take part in exchange programmes, invest in enterprises across Europe and appeal to European institutions if national regulations, for example, do not meet our expectations.

Origin of the design for the European flag Fifty years after its adoption by the Council of Europe, there is still some doubt about the exact origin of the design for the European flag. It would appear from two internal Council of Europe memos in late 1953 and January 1954 that the proposal for a circle of ‘fifteen’ gold stars on a blue background was made in September 1951 by Hanno F. Konopath from the Hamburg branch of the Europa-Union, and was placed fourth of the 12 designs selected(251).
