UNIA: THE DORIAN HORSE OF PAPISM

By Archim. Gen. Raptopoulos, from the book "Papism and Early Fighters of Orthodoxy," published by the Orthodox Brotherhood of St. Xeni (translated by the Greek Orthodox Monastery of Pantokrator - Melissohori Thessalonikis, Greece).
Beware oj false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, hut inwardly they are ravening wolves. (Me 7:15)

Unia: What is the meaning of this word? It is a Polish word and its meaning is "union." The one that belongs to Unia is called Uniatc. Every Uniate has his life's purpose to draw Orthodox Christians to the falsehoods of Papism. If, however, this is what a lay Uniate wishes, the desire for proselytizing Orthodox to Papism is that much more for the Uniate clergy.
With great yearning the Pope seeks to fully subordinate the Orthodox under his jurisdiction and to his falsehoods. He wishes to become the "head" of the Church. This yearning he has had for a very long time—-since the 6th century, and especially since he officially separated from the Orthodox Church in 1054. Yes, since that time! He has tried in so many ways to succeed in his goal! But he has (thus far) succeeded in nothing. So, in his embarrassment and contemplation of what he should have done better and more effectively, he created the Uniate "church."
How It All Started
Unia was first founded by the Latins during their Latcrno Synod of 1215, by Pope Innocente the 4'''. Limited efforts were made until the i6th century. It was then that officially and inexplicably Unia was created in Poland by two Jesuits, Possevin and Skarga. Ihese two monks were architects of the Polish Uniate establishment. And this was done in their efforts to proselytize the Orthodox of Poland and southwest Russia. They were greatly helped by the king of Poland, Si-gismundus the 3rd, who was brought up by the two Jesuits until his 2ist year of age.
Under the protection of Sigismundus the 3rd, the two Jesuits officially set up their satanic task. In 1587 the two Jesuits induced the king of Poland to call the Synod at Brest in Lithuania, the Archbishop of Kiev presiding. The topic of the synod was the union of the Orthodox with the Latin Church. The result of the synod was substantially nothing.
So, a second Synod was called again at Brest on Dec 2, 1594. In this synod, the primacy of the Pope and the Filioque were recognized. 'Ihis pleased the Pope. In fact two bishops were sent to Rome to declare officially the decision of the Synod to Pope Clemente the 8th. However the union was not realized. For this reason the Polish king ordered in 1596 to reconvene the Synod at Brest, to officially declare the union with Rome. And What Happened?
The archbishop of Kiev with other hierarchs declared the union, but the people reacted. Clerics, aristocrats and the public, led by Constantine Ostrogoski, publicly protested. 'Iliey disapproved the events and declated their devotion to the early Church and to the Patriarch of Constantinople. A tragic event in the history of the Orthodox Church was then unleashed by the Latin. This event is the story that uncovered the true meaning, the face of Unia and the intentions of the Latin Pope.

Unia as the "Dorian Horse"

Unia looks very different to what it actually aims to represent. It appears Orthodox; and why? The Uniate clerics are dressed like the Orthodox clerics. They wear the rassa and have beards. 'Ihey possess the total appearance of an Orthodox cleric. Their Churches are in everything Orthodox-looking. They lack those cold Latin statues that give the appearance and the feeling of an idolatric temple. Instead of statues they have icons. And the whole structure of the Church, inside and outside, is Orthodox in appearance. Their "divine liturgy" is performed in every language of each country in which it exists and always acts in a proselytizing manner. The "same" (in appearance but not in grace) divine liturgy. No simple Orthodox Christian could possibly suspect anything different from Orthodoxy. Thus, our Orthodox brethren could easily find themselves being advised by Uniates priests and worshipping in Uniate Churches.
All these constitute the Dorian horse. It is the wolf in sheepskin. Inside the Dorian horse hide the Latin Pope's men whose goal is to subordinate every Orthodox to the Vatican. To Latinitize them. To murder the Orthodox faith, the only true faith. Have we not seen this through the ages? Is it not always under the nice sheepskin that wolves aspiring to devour Orthodox hide? And those wolves are the mortal enemies of Orthodoxy. They are the camouflaged Prankish priests. They are as they are called in the 1989/24-3-1907 encyclical of the Patriarch Joakim 3rd "wolves in the form of sheep." Wolves that we must beware, as we were forewarned by our Lord Himself. Who doesn't remember His words? Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. (Mt 7:15). They are wolves and you easily understand this when you hear them during their "liturgy," commemorating the Pope of Rome, the one who possesses abysmal hatred against the Orthodox Faith. Reverting to the Use of Force
The Uniates, crafty men of the Pope, often use this as a means to proselytize Orthodox Christians to the falsehoods of Papism. They use the Dorian horse, the sheepskin, the "camouflage.""They use craftiness and deceit. However, if these means do not prove adequate, then they revert to the use offeree. They have devised a thousand and two ways to force the Orthodox into submission to the Pope.
There are three recent characteristic occasions, which have happened in cities of Slovakia and which the Director of the Holy Synod's official Publication, John Hatziphotis, uncovers.

First Event
In the city of Mihalovce, the Uniates applied psychological and physical force on the Orthodox bishop John, They took over his Church and Diocese headquarters and forced him to move with all his bishopric to an old tavern. Groups of Uniate monks cut off the water, fuel and electricity, thus destroying his electronic equipment that were at the new "Diocese." The same Bishop John suffered a heart attack shortly thereafter and was transferred to the Branov Hospital. Second Event
In the city of Medgilaborce on 23 October 1991, the Uniates, with the support of 80 policemen entered the Orthodox Church and removed all the Orthodox icons. Third Event
In the city of Stropkov, on n January 1991, the Uniates and Roman Catholics together started to destroy the house of the Orthodox priest, where in a toom was a small Church used by the parish. They destroyed the roof, cut off the electricity and telephone and finally they evicted the priest, who now performed the services in a small wooden house, where the faithful brought some icons, which they guarded carefully so that the Uniates wouldn't take them and burn them. Slaughters and Executions
Which slaughter and executions should we report first? And from when shall we start? Unia drips with blood. Blood from so many of her innumerable victims who refused to worship the Pope and accept his falsehoods. But let us note some typical bloody events that bring shame the Uniates and the Pope.
In Poland
The first blood was poured abundantly by the Uniates in Poland and southwest Russia. The Polish king Sigismun-dus, through the prompting of the two Jesuits, Possevin and Skarga, and when he realized that through the pseudo-synods of Brest in Lithuania he accomplished basically nothing, he declared in 1596 the open persecution of the Orthodox who refused to surrender to the Pope. A river of blood was poured by this persecution. The representative of the Patriarchate of Constantinople Archimandrite Nikiphoros was arrested and thrown in prison where he died of hunger. The representative of the Patriarchate of Alexandria in Poland, Kyrill Lukaris and later Patriarch of Alexandria, just managed to escape and thus avoid imprisonment and certain death. In this persecution therefore, {the first one that Sigismundus declared with the prompting of the Uniates) several Orthodox were murdered, others were exiled and many others were tortured. All of the Orthodox Churches and holy monasteries were turned over to the Uniates. Unia's intentions for all Orthodox in Polandand southwest Russia were clearly submission through destruction and / or death.
Ihe description of the ever memorable Metropolitan Germ-anus of Thyatera on this persecution is noteworthy: "From the Orthodox some were expelled, some had their arms and legs smashed, others were bayoneted and others were killed at the stake, while the women had their breasts cut off while their children were burnt on skewers." In Czecoslovakia
When the Communists took over Czechoslovakia, the Papist Uniates found the opportunity to openly attack all Orthodox Christians with awesome savagery. Let us hear the Metropolitan Dorotheos of Prague and all Czechoslovakia describe just a few of the vandalisms by the Uniates in the following areas,
1. Litmanova, in the area Star-Loumbova: The Church was destroyed and a concerted and systematic persecution was unleashed on all Orthodox.
2. Klenova, in the area of Houtnene: Durung the Paschaof 1969, the Uniates fired at the Church, injuring several worshippers.
3. Stopkov, in the area of Svintik: The Uniates destroyed the Church. They climbed on the bell steeple and broke off the Orthodox triple Cross. They brought down the priests house and threw his furniture on the street and destroyed it.
4. Tsekov, in the area of Trcmbosov: They took over the Church by force during the Divine Liturgy. The priest performing the Liturgy was beaten up so badly that he needed long hospital care. And this was the least. The worst was that the priest did not manage to complete the Divine Liturgy.
5. Malee Zalouzitce, in the area of Mihalovce: In this village there were 42 Orthodox and 28 Uniate families. The Uniates and the Catholics gathered 3000 followers from the county to destroy the Orthodox Church. The Orthodox defended their Church and protected it from desecration, but lots of blood was spilled- In the end the Uniates succeeded in taking over the church. And even though a lot of Orthodox blood was spilled (literally covering the road and the Church compound), it did not stop the Uniate "priests" from stepping in and entering the Church of the Orthodox, to perform their "liturgy."
6. At Kousmitce, in the area of Trembisov: The Church was destroyed and the priest was severely beaten by the fanaticalUniates. They beat him mercilessly and with no pity; he was saved by a few government officials and allowed to go to thecity for treatment. At the same time, the Uniates were shout ing and demanding to hang him!
The Metropolitan of Prague vainly protested to the Vatican. The Vatican kept quiet. What could it say since it created Unia and since it blesses its crimes in all Orthodox countries? As the Hierarch of Czechoslovakia correctly noted, "Vatican's silence speaks for itself."
In Serbia
As the "Orthodox Press" wrote in November of 1961, "the biggest slaughter of the Orthodox since the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ was executed in Serbia for the benefit of Papism."
And who were the butchers? Who else but the Papist Uni-ates? They are the specialist butchers of those who do not submit to the Franks but wish to die Orthodox. 'Ihus the Papist Uniates, known as Ustashi, on April of 1941, after the overtaking of Yugoslavia by the Germans and Italians, they acted as they wished. However it was the Vatican that ordered them to action.
Their leader the infamous Ante Pavelic, was named to his post with the blessing of the Vatican and of Mussolini. So then, fully ready and allied with the Germans and Italians, they commenced with their macabre task. They entered northwest Yugoslavia and they started the slaughter. They started with the priests. All Orthodox priests of the area were rounded up, were tied with wires to temporary crosses and were then executed mainly by stoning. They then invited the Orthodox people to convert to Catholicism, under the threat of death. Then 800,000, from very young children in elementary school to old people, gave one and only answer: "NO. We wish to die for the Orthodox faith of our ancestors".
The Uniates then gave the signal for the general slaughter. The atrocities that the Ustashi committed on the defenseless Serbian population were the worst in World War II. There exist several books and web sites displaying facts, pictures and historical accounts of the related events (WARNING: The photographs within these sites and books are quite explicit and are not recommended for young children). Approximately 800,000 Orthodox were killed after great tortures. They died but did not succumb, they did not become Latins, they did not worship the Pope. May the memory of these 800,000 Orthodox martyrs be eternal. In Ukraine
In Ukraine, the Uniates confiscated so many Orthodox Churches, that the Orthodox Church there had so few churches for her needs. The savagery and hatred of the Uniates against the Orthodox was expressed in various ways. We provide here one event. One day the Uniates arrested the Orthodox vicar who was earlier a Uniate and later returned to Orthodoxy. Revenging his return to Orthodoxy, these wolves in sheepskins took the Orthodox cleric and forcefully drowned him in the river.
Where is therefore the love of the Pope, of the Vatican, of the Roman Catholic Church when it commits so many crimes with her infamous Unia? What is the meaning of the famous theological dialogue, when the Pope continuous to maintain Unia, this detachment of death? Let us not be deceived. The Pope wishes to subordinate all Orthodox to his falsehoods or he stands ready to exterminate them.
Unia and her crimes stand as the loud voice of truth and represent an absolute shame for the tactics, methods and ambitions of the Vatican. May the memory of the many Orthodox martyrs at the hands of the Uniates serve as loud voice of reason for all those who wish to enslave Orthodoxy to the evil forces of ecumenism and full subjugation to the Latin Pope.


Editor's Note: For those who wish to study the historical events surrounding the Uniate crimes of recent past (in Serbia—by the Ustashi} we recommend a book titled "The Vatican's Holocaust," byAvro Manhattan. Mr. Manhattan (1914-1990) was the world's foremost authority on Roman Catholicism in politics. A resident of London, during WWII, he operated a radio station called "Radio Freedom" broadcasting to occupied Europe. He was the author of over 20 books including the best-seller "The Vatican in World Politics," going through 57 editions. He was a Great Briton who risked his life daily to expose some of the darkest secrets of the Papacy. His books were#r on the Vatican's "Forbidden Index" for the past 50 years! In "The Vatican's Holocaust," he presents a factual and sensational account of the most horrifying religious massacre of the 2oth century. Revelations of forced conversions, mass murder of non-Catholics, extermination camps, disclosures of Catholic clergy as commanders of concentration camps; data is documented with names, dates, places, pictures and eyewitness testimony.
Another revealing and more accessible source of historical information about the same events is available on the Web at http://pavclic-papers.com/misc/about.html, and is titled "The Pavelic Papers." It presents historical information, data, and historical documents related to the Ustashi crimes upon the Serbian people under the leadership of Ante Pavelic and with the guidance of Alojzije Stepinac (the Latin Archbishop of Zagreb—later Cardinal—and head of the Croatian Catholic Church, and a favorite of Pope Pius XII) and the blessings of the Vatican.
