SOPHIA
This is the Venus of Willendorf
This is Sophia, the 'Goddess of Wisdom'
These are the so called ‘Roman Catholic Womenpriests’
What do the Paleolithic "Venus", the occult Sophia and these ‘Catholic’ priestesses have in common?
The Venus of Willendorf was a fertility object and perhaps a symbol for some earth goddess cult. She is similar to the Gaia figure from Greek mythology.
Sophia is the feminine goddess of Wisdom. Sophia is found in Gnosticism, Theosophy and in pagan religions with goddess worship. Sophia is referred to as the feminine image of God; Goddess-Mother of the Universe; the fallen creator of earth, water, fire, and air; Wisdom in the Proverbs; or Holy Spirit. (sic)
To be sure the paddling sisterhood will strike on a boat somewhere again. It would be a mistake to think of these events as mere manifestations of feminist ambition. The ultimate goal is the Goddess --> earth, wind, fire, air, and water --> Paganism! The Venus of Willendorf is trying to reinvent the Catholic Church!
It’s hard to believe, but the Women’s “Ordination” Conferences seems to pursue this same objective:
In Dublin there were four altars to earth, water, fire, and air. The conference opened with a welcome dance: participants with arms linked danced around the hall chanting, “Earth my body, water my blood, fire my spirit….” Instead of mass the program listed “eucharist” (in lower case). With incense, beating drums, earthenware chalices, bread and grape juice?
In Ottawa one keynote speaker was Rosemary Ruether, author of Integrating Ecofeminism and Goddesses and the Divine Feminine. Diane Watts’s workshop was titled “Erotic Justice: Commitment to Personal and Global Transformation” Quote “Trinity is mother, Lord within us”; “best experience of God is in mutual sexual relationships”; Christian teaching “is frozen into frigidity by fear of sex.”; “We need gays and lesbians – it is ‘a unique way, the creative energy of God.’” The Sunday morning opening prayer: “We pray for the stripping away of the calcified rituals and rigid legalism. We pray for a truly eucharistic church, for table fellowship where equal disciples break together the Word and the Bread, and raise the cup of Thanksgiving.” It ended with, “Come, Sophia Wisdom, fill the hearts of your faithful and renew the face of the earth. Amen.” Source
