Pope Francis honors Japanese martyrs and celebrates Mass in Nagasaki

No doubt he will be in Hawaii a few days from now on December 7 to bless the innocents killed in the sneak attack at Pearl Harbor.

 

[Likkmee]

If so,I hope everyone who goes to Hail Maria this weekend drops an extra couple bucks in the cracker plate. Hawaii is expensive !

 

[Blackrook]

God, please bless Pope Francis and please let him into heaven when his life's work is done.

-----
"This land has experienced, as few countries have, the destructive power of which we humans are capable," the pope said in his homily. "Nagasaki bears in its soul a wound difficult to heal, a scar born of the incomprehensible suffering endured by so many innocent victims of wars past and those of the present, when a third World War is being waged piecemeal."

Pope Francis asked the region's Catholics to pray for those in other parts of the world who are suffering the effects of war today and to bear witness to Jesus' kingdom, which is one of "truth and justice, of holiness and grace, of love and peace."

The charred, eyeless head of a Marian statue that survived the destruction of Nagasaki's cathedral in 1945 stood near the altar. The pope venerated it with incense as the Mass began.

Hawaii was annexed in 1898 from the USA. It came to foreign infiltration with US-citizens. I guess, because of this infiltration became Hawaii in 1959 a state of the USA. With other short words: The USA stole the land of the Hawaiians in a similar way, how "you" stole the lands of the red indian nations. Strange "moral" in this time of history (racist colonialism). But indeed everyone accepts normally the decisions of such wars and robberies - although this had a lot to do with justice - but a lot to do with social darwinism and wrong elites.

When the USA moved their pacific fleet to Hawaii (Pearl Harbor) the Japanese had every right to feel threatened from the USA. It was totally clear, that the USA liked to minimize the influence of the Japanese in Hawaii (lots of Japanese lived there) and that the USA liked to dominate from this save position all countries around the Pacific. So "you" was practically in war a long time before Japan attacked your Pacific fleet in Pearl Harbor. The US-soldiers in Hawaii were perhaps innocent - not as soldiers but as human beings - nevertheless the country USA was not innocent in this situation; the USA was only unsuspecting. The behavior of the USA in Pearl Harbor was so strange, that lots of theories exist about the idea that the US-American government was happy about the killed soldiers of Hawaii, because this meant the citizens of the USA had agreed to go in war.

The European world and the Asian world has by the way today very big problems with the lonely decision of Donald Trump to cancel the Intermediate-range nuclear forces treaty, which was made from Mikhail Gorbachev and Ronald Reagan. It would had been thousand times better to make China also to a member of this treaty. The nuclear threat level grew worldwide, because of this wrong politics of the USA, which had happened without consultation and against the will of all serios allies of the USA.

By the way: US-Catholics are good enough to die for the USA in wars - but they are not good enough to be president of the USA. In the history of the USA only 3 years from 243 years (~1.25%) a Catholic was president of the USA. I would say you are very effective in supressing "minorities" and in finding a very special form of moral.

It was just simple a "himmelschreiende Ungerechtigkeit" - a glaring injustice - what you did do with the inhabitants of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It was a very heavy crime, what you did do there. That's it! A damned nuclear mass-murder. A crime against life itselve. A crime against god.

Pope Francis (Bishop of Rome) should have celebrated Mass in Hiroshima.

Pope Francis honors Japanese martyrs and celebrates Mass in Nagasaki

About 3,500 American servicemembers were killed in the Pearl Harbor attack, which was an attack on a military base and an attack that FDR had provoked, wanted, and knew was coming. Around 100,000 Japanese were killed in the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, which, by the way, had the largest Christian population of any city in Japan.

 

[ChemEngineer]

The Japanese martyrs aren't the people who died in bombing of Nagasaki during WWII.

America didn't start the war, cowboy. Japan did, but only AFTER they invaded China and bayoneted civilian men, women, and children by the hundreds of thousands. Only AFTER they kidnapped Korean women and made sex slaves of them. Then they invaded the Philippines and bayoneted more civilians there and elsewhere.
They bayoneted and shot American POWs. Civilians on Okinawa committed suicide by the thousands rather than see America take over their homeland.

Then long before Nagasaki, America firebombed one Japanese city after another, killing many more civilians than died in Nagasaki. Still the Japanese fought on, refusing to surrender.

Are you getting this? NO? I didn't think so.

I'll pull up the Potsdam Declaration for you to read and think about.


Proclamation Defining Terms for Japanese Surrender
Issued, at Potsdam, July 26, 1945

1. We-the President of the United States, the President of the National Government of the Republic of China, and the Prime Minister of Great Britain, representing the hundreds of millions of our countrymen, have conferred and agree that Japan shall be given an opportunity to end this war.
2. The prodigious land, sea and air forces of the United States, the British Empire and of China, many times reinforced by their armies and air fleets from the west, are poised to strike the final blows upon Japan. This military power is sustained and inspired by the determination of all the Allied Nations to prosecute the war against Japan until she ceases to resist.
3. The result of the futile and senseless German resistance to the might of the aroused free peoples of the world stands forth in awful clarity as an example to the people of Japan. The might that now converges on Japan is immeasurably greater than that which, when applied to the resisting Nazis, necessarily laid waste to the lands, the industry and the method of life of the whole German people. The full application of our military power, backed by our resolve, will mean the inevitable and complete destruction of the Japanese armed forces and just as inevitably the utter devastation of the Japanese homeland.
4. The time has come for Japan to decide whether she will continue to be controlled by those self-willed militaristic advisers whose unintelligent calculations have brought the Empire of Japan to the threshold of annihilation, or whether she will follow the path of reason.
5. Following are our terms. We will not deviate from them. There are no alternatives. We shall brook no delay.
6. There must be eliminated for all time the authority and influence of those who have deceived and misled the people of Japan into embarking on world conquest, for we insist that a new order of peace, security and justice will be impossible until irresponsible militarism is driven from the world.
7. Until such a new order is established and until there is convincing proof that Japan's war-making power is destroyed, points in Japanese territory to be designated by the Allies shall be occupied to secure the achievement of the basic objectives we are here setting forth.
8. The terms of the Cairo Declaration shall be carried out and Japanese sovereignty shall be limited to the islands of Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, Shikoku and such minor islands as we determine.
9. The Japanese military forces, after being completely disarmed, shall be permitted to return to their homes with the opportunity to lead peaceful and productive lives.
10. We do not intend that the Japanese shall be enslaved as a race or destroyed as a nation, but stern justice shall be meted out to all war criminals, including those who have visited cruelties upon our prisoners. The Japanese Government shall remove all obstacles to the revival and strengthening of democratic tendencies among the Japanese people. Freedom of speech, of religion, and of thought, as well as respect for the fundamental human rights shall be established.
11. Japan shall be permitted to maintain such industries as will sustain her economy and permit the exaction of just reparations in kind, but not those which would enable her to re-arm for war. To this end, access to, as distinguished from control of, raw materials shall be permitted. Eventual Japanese participation in world trade relations shall be permitted.
12. The occupying forces of the Allies shall be withdrawn from Japan as soon as these objectives have been accomplished and there has been established in accordance with the freely expressed will of the Japanese people a peacefully inclined and responsible government.
13. We call upon the government of Japan to proclaim now the unconditional surrender of all Japanese armed forces, and to provide proper and adequate assurances of their good faith in such action. The alternative for Japan is prompt and utter destruction. (Emphasis added)

STILL they refused to surrender.

THEN Hiroshima was bombed. Guess what? STILL they refused to surrender.
It was estimated that the invasion of Japan would kill 10,000,000 Japanese and 1,700,000 Americans.
Maybe you preferred that instead.

P.S. What do you think of the 50,000,000 or so innocent unborn babies murdered in the U.S. to date, on the perjured testimony of Norma McCorvey, who lied that she had been raped?

Document these outrageous claims or apologize for your outrageous mendacity.

Did the Chinese peasants likewise "provoke" the invasion by the Japanese armed forces?
Did they "provoke" their bayoneting hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians?
Explain how on God's earth.
Did the Korean comfort women "provoke" Japan into their sex slavery?
Explain how on God's earth.

Explain to someone else because I never want to read anything you ever write again.
This nonsense you write is more than any thinking person should have to bear. My Ignore List just grew by you.
ciao brutto

And I thought the USA had and has problems, because Germany and Japan lost world war 2 part A and P, while the USA and their allies wan world 2.

 

[fncceo]

The Japanese martyrs were 26 Japanese and Portuguese Catholics who were crucified by Japanese officials in 1587.

The repression of Catholics forced xtian worship to go underground for many centuries.

At the time, Nagasaki was the only place in Japan where foreigners could live and conduct trade.

You think it is "anti-American" that the USA murdered the people of Nagasaki? So who were the anti-Americans, who destroyed the moral of your country with this cruel act of deepest barbarism?
