commerce besides money-lending. For this achievement, the Encyclopaedia honours Calvin with<br />
the statement, "Calvin blessed the Jews."<br />
In retrospect, Calvin is in can be seen as but one more <strong>of</strong> the Canaanite movements which have<br />
periodically swept across Europe, creating revolutionary plots which were then exported to other<br />
countries. It is no accident that with the advent <strong>of</strong> Calvin, Switzerland became the private banking<br />
center <strong>of</strong> the world, or that the successive revolutionary plots have been both hatched and financed<br />
from Switzerland. Even Lenin found a haven in Switzerland during the years <strong>of</strong> toiling over the<br />
techniques which would allow him to seize Russia from the Romanov family, which had ruled<br />
that nation for one thousand years. Calvinism's welcome exhortation to amass more money was<br />
counter-balanced from the outset by the fact that it was inaugurated as a brutal, tyrannical system<br />
which functioned on a basis <strong>of</strong> Oriental despotism, again revealing its Canaanite origins. <strong>The</strong><br />
people <strong>of</strong> Shem never believe in forcing anyone to do anything; this is a basis <strong>of</strong> their law; they<br />
believe that as a matter <strong>of</strong> natural instinct, people will always do the right thing. <strong>The</strong> Canaanites,<br />
on the other hand, always aware <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Curse</strong> on their people, and God's command to the children<br />
<strong>of</strong> Israel to exterminate them, realize that their survival depends on employing the most brutal<br />
measures. Calvinism ran true to form.<br />
In November, 1541, Calvin issued his Ecclesiastical Ordinances, a body <strong>of</strong> instructions which<br />
imposed absolute discipline on all citizens. Calvin's ordinances imposed the death penalty against<br />
any opponent; his leading critic, Jacques Gruet, was beheaded for blasphemy; another religious<br />
opponent, Michael Servetus, was burned at the stake. Other critics were tortured and beheaded.<br />
Calvin encouraged the burning <strong>of</strong> witches and ruthlessly enforced his ordinances, creating the<br />
most tyrannical and autocratic theocracy in Europe.<br />
<strong>The</strong> importation <strong>of</strong> Calvinism into England was calculated to drive a wedge between the Church<br />
and State. <strong>The</strong> traditional Church <strong>of</strong> England had as its titular head the King. Calvinism's divisive<br />
propaganda led to the triumph <strong>of</strong> Cromwell and the replacement <strong>of</strong> the Kings <strong>of</strong> the Stuart line<br />
by the House <strong>of</strong> Orange-Nassau. <strong>The</strong> first victim <strong>of</strong> this purge was King Charles I, who was<br />
beheaded by the conspirators. Details <strong>of</strong> the plot were published centuries later in Lord Alfred<br />
Douglas' publication "Plain English," September 3, 1921: "L. D. Van Valckert came into<br />
possession <strong>of</strong> the missing volumes <strong>of</strong> the records <strong>of</strong> the Synagogue <strong>of</strong> Mulheim, lost since the<br />
Napoleonic Wars, which were written in German. <strong>The</strong>se records have the entry, June 6, 1647,<br />
from O. C. to Ebenezer Pratt, 'In return for financial support will advocate admission <strong>of</strong> Jews to<br />
England; this, however, impossible while Charles living. Charles cannot be executed without<br />
trial, adequate grounds for which at present do not exist. <strong>The</strong>refore, advise that Charles be<br />
assassinated, but will have nothing to do with procuring an assassin, though willing to help in<br />
his escape.' <strong>The</strong> reply came from Pratt July 12, 1647, 'Will grant financial aid as soon as Charles<br />
removed, and Jews admitted. Assassination too dangerous. Charles should be given an<br />
opportunity to escape. His recapture will then make trial and execution possible. <strong>The</strong> support<br />
will be liberal, but useless to discuss terms until trial commences.' "<br />
Lord Alfred Douglas was subsequently imprisoned on a charge <strong>of</strong> having libeled Winston<br />
Churchill in his paper, a feat which most reasonable men would consider impossible.<br />
<strong>The</strong> plot proceeded as outlined by Pratt. On November 12, 1647, King Charles "escaped." He<br />
was recaptured, and 1t his subsequent trial, the House sat all night, December 5, 1648, finally<br />
agreeing that Charles would negotiate a settlement on terms laid down by them. This resulted in<br />
the famous Pryde's Purge. Cromwell, infuriated that the House had not passed sentence <strong>of</strong><br />
execution, dismissed all the members who had favored a settlement with Charles. <strong>The</strong> fifty<br />
members who remained were known as the "Rump Parliament." <strong>The</strong>y had usurped absolute<br />
power. <strong>The</strong>y then proclaimed a High Court <strong>of</strong> Justice on January 9, 1649. It was composed <strong>of</strong><br />
Levellers from Cromwell's Army. Manasseh ben Israel's 1gent in England, Isaac Dorislaus, drew<br />
up the indictment 1 9ainst King Charles. Manasseh ben Isreal, who transmitted the funds from<br />
Amsterdam for Cromwell's revolution, is dUbbed "Cromwell's English Intelligencer" by the<br />
