Jacques-Louis David’s painting Oath of the Horatii (1784) seems to be the starting point for the gesture that became known as the Roman salute. The gesture and its identification with ancient Rome was advanced in other French neoclassic art. This was further elaborated upon in popular culture during the late 19th and early 20th centuries in plays and films that portrayed the salute as an ancient Roman custom. – Winkler (2009) p. 2
Hitler’s father Alois Hitler (born Aloys Schicklgruber June 7, 1837 – January 3, 1903) & Hitler’s mother Klara Hitler, born Klara Pölzl (August 12, 1860 – December 21, 1907) She was a devout Roman Catholic and went to church regularly.
Both are buried at Austrian village Leonding.

”Since in my free time I received singing lessons in the cloister at Lambach, I had excellent opportunity to intoxicate myself with the solemn splendor of the brilliant church festivals. It seemed to me perfectly natural to regard the abbot as the highest and most desirable ideal, just as my father regarded the village priest as his ideal.”

According to historian John Toland, Hitler had the Nazi law defining Jewishness written to exclude Jesus Christ and himself.
In 1933, the London Daily Mirror published a picture of a gravestone in a Jewish cemetery in Bucharest inscribed with some Hebrew characters and the name Adolf Hitler.
Hitler’s former lawyer, Hans Frank, claimed that Adolf told him in 1930 that one of his relatives was trying to blackmail him by threatening to reveal his alleged Jewish ancestry. Hitler asked Frank to find out the facts. Frank says he determined that at the time Maria Schicklgruber gave birth to Alois, she was working as a household cook in the town of Graz. Her employers were a Jewish family named Frankenberger, who had a 19-year-old son. The son, according to Frank, was Alois’s father and Hitler’s grandfather — which would make the man who inspired the Holocaust one-quarter Jewish.
A study had been conducted in which saliva samples were collected from 39 of Hitler’s known relatives to test their DNA origins and found, though inconclusively, that Hitler may have Jewish origins. The paper reported: “A chromosome called Haplogroup E1b1b1 which showed up in [the Hitler] samples is rare in Western Europe and is most commonly found in the Berbers of Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, as well as among Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews … Haplogroup E1b1b1, which accounts for approximately 18 to 20 per cent of Ashkenazi and 8.6 per cent to 30 per cent of Sephardic Y-chromosomes, appears to be one of the major founding lineages of the Jewish population.”
Jewish population.”
Hitler praying
Hitler said:
“It is of no matter whether or not the individual Jew is decent. He possesses certain characteristics given to him by nature, and he can never rid himself of those characteristics. The Jew is harmful to us … My feeling as a Christian leads me to be a fighter for my Lord and Savior. It leads me to the man who, at one time lonely and with only a few followers, recognized the Jews for what they were, and called on men to fight against them … As a Christian, I owe something to my own people.” Walker, WEMS, 474
He also remarked to one of his generals:
“I am now as before a Catholic and will always remain so.”
Hitler quashed thousands of lawsuits against the Catholic Church, exchanged multi-millions in various currencies with the Church, and established, with the full cooperation of the Church, a “rat line” via Switzerland and Italy where thousand of Nazi officers were given safe passage to a new life in North America and South America.
Vatican city is a sovereign state within the city of Rome. It became a state in 1929. Its size is only 110 acres, the smallest country in world. It’s the size of a typical small residential ranch in Texas.
And I tell you, you are Peter and on this rock I will build my church and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. Matthew 16:18
There are two security forces that protect the Vatican City State;
The Corps of Gendarmerie of Vatican City handles border control and criminal investigations.
And the Swiss Guard, trained in Switzerland, is the personal security force of the Pope. The Vatican’s gold and wealth is in Switzerland.

The last rites are the last prayers and ministrations given to many Catholics when possible shortly before death. The last rites go by various names and include various practices in different Catholic traditions. They may be administered to those awaiting execution, mortally injured, or terminally ill.
LAST RITES
(Writ of Upsilon)
The oil should be blessed beforehand with the Holy Spirit and Christ Force, either on the scene or in your own chapel.
Step 1: Sanctification of the Rite
O HOLY HOSTS ABOVE, I CALL UPON THEE AS A SERVANT OF JESUS CHRIST, TO SANCTIFY OUR ACTIONS THIS DAY IN PREPARATION FOR THE FULFILLMENT OF THE WILL OF GOD.
Step 2: Invocation
I CALL UPON THE GREAT ARCHANGEL RAPHAEL, MASTER OF AIR, TO OPEN THE WAY FOR THIS TO BE DONE. LET THE FIRE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT NOW DESCEND THAT THIS BEING MIGHT BE AWAKENED TO THE WORLD BEYOND AND THE LIFE OF EARTH, AND INFUSED WITH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
Step 3: Dedication of the Soul
O LORD JESUS CHRIST, MOST MERCIFUL, LORD OF EARTH WE ASK THAT YOU RECEIVE THIS CHILD INTO YOUR ARMS, THAT HE MIGHT PASS IN SAFETY FROM THIS CRISIS. AS THOU HAST TOLD US WITH INFINITE COMPASSION: “LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED: YE BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME. “IN MY FATHER’S HOUSE ARE MANY MANSIONS: IF IT WERE NOT SO, I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU. I GO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU. “AND IF I GO AND PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU, I WILL COME AGAIN, AND RECEIVE YOU UNTO MYSELF: THAT WHERE I AM, THERE YE MAY BE ALSO. AND WHITHER I GO YE KNOW, AND THE WAY YE KNOW.” John 14:1-4 SO LET IT BE DONE.
Step 4: Absolution and Purification
(If the person is conscious, accept his confession now.) BY THIS SIGN THOU ART ANOINTED WITH THE GRACE OF THE ATONEMENT OF JESUS CHRIST AND THOU ART ABSOLVED OF ALL PAST ERROR AND FREED TO TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THE WORLD HE HAS PREPARED FOR US. (As you say this prayer, make a X (cross) on his forehead with your thumb with olive oil. First make the vertical line from top to bottom, then the horizontal from left to right.)
Step 5: Prayer of Universal Thanksgiving
I WILL SING OF THE MERCIES OF THE LORD FOREVER: WITH MY MOUTH WILL I MAKE KNOWN THY FAITHFULNESS TO ALL GENERATIONS. FOR I HAVE SAID, MERCY SHALL BE BUILT UP FOREVER: THY FAITHFULNESS SHALT THOU ESTABLISH IN THE VERY HEAVENS. I HAVE MADE A COVENANT WITH MY CHOSEN, I HAVE SWORN UNTO DAVID MY SERVANT. THY SEED WILL I ESTABLISH FOREVER, AND BUILD UP THY THRONE TO ALL GENERATIONS. SELAH. AND THE HEAVENS SHALL PRAISE THY WONDERS, O LORD: THY FAITHFULNESS ALSO IN THE CONGREGATION OF THE SAINTS. FOR WHO IN THE HEAVEN CAN BE COMPARED UNTO THE LORD? WHO AMONG THE SONS OF THE MIGHTY CAN BE LIKENED UNTO THE LORD? GOD IS GREATLY TO BE FEARED IN THE ASSEMBLY OF THE SAINTS, AND TO BE HAD IN REVERENCE OF ALL THEM THAT ARE ABOUT HIM. Psalm 89:1-7
Step 6: Benediction
AND THUS DO I COMMEND THEE INTO THE ARMS OF OUR LORD OF EARTH, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, PRESERVER OF ALL MERCY AND REALITY, AND THE FATHER CREATOR. WE GIVE HIM GLORY AS WE GIVE YOU INTO HIS ARMS IN EVERLASTING PEACE, TO BE PREPARED TO RETURN INTO THE DENSER REALITY OF GOD THE FATHER, CREATOR OF ALL. AMEN, AMEN, AMEN.
The mourning period starts at 12 noon and goes until 3PM. During this time the Christian prays and lights candles and remains quiet. No meat is to be eaten. Some Christians fast all day.
On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb, Jesus’ disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover?” Mark 14:12
Naturally the (Word of God) Gospel of John states that the last meal was before the Passover festival had begun. The Gospel of John makes no explicit mention that the Last Supper was a Passover meal and presents the official Jewish Passover feast as beginning in the evening a few hours after the death of Jesus (special Sabbath starts at sundown).
It was just before the Passover Festival. John 13:1
Now it was the day of Preparation, and the next day was to be a special Sabbath. John 19:31
Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there. John 13:42
This states that the meal was the day before Passover (he dies on the time of the Passover lamb sacrifice chapter 19). Also at the meal no breaking of bread and no cup of wine symbolizing his blood poured out.
The priest, or Pastor, will dip his finger into the ashes, spread them in a cross pattern on the forehead, and say, “From dust you came and from dust you will return.”
The ashes are prepared by burning palm branches from the previous Palm Sunday.
“Ashes are equivalent to dust, and human flesh is composed of dust or clay, and when a human corpse decomposes, it returns to dust or ash.”
Then the Lord God formed a man[a] from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. Genesis 2:7
1By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.” Genesis 3:19
The Priest explanation; “On Ash Wednesday we are saying that we are sorry for our sins, and that we want to use the season of Lent to correct our faults, purify our hearts, control our desires and grow in holiness so we will be prepared to celebrate Easter with great joy”

WHAT ARE YOU NOT ALLOWED TO EAT ON ASH WEDNESDAY?
As far as the exact rules and practices of Lent, those have changed over the years. “In the early centuries fasting rules were strict, as they still are in Eastern churches,” notes Britannica.com. “One meal a day was allowed in the evening, and meat, fish, eggs, and butter were forbidden. The Eastern church also restricts the use of wine, oil, and dairy products. In the West, these fasting rules have gradually been relaxed. The strict law of fasting among Roman Catholics was dispensed with during World War II, and only Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are now kept as Lenten fast days.”
And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. – Matthew 6:7

When marrying a non Catholic the marriage must be performed in a Catholic Church. Any marriage performed by a non Catholic Clergy is not recognized by the Church as a valid marriage.
A Catholic must seek permission from the local bishop to marry a non-Catholic. If the person is a non-Catholic Christian, this permission is called a “permission to enter into a mixed marriage”,
The permission is called a “dispensation from disparity of cult” and is a condition for the validity of the marriage.
NO DIVORCE – In his preaching Jesus unequivocally taught the original meaning of the union of man and woman as the Creator willed it from the beginning permission given by Moses to divorce one’s wife was a concession to the hardness of hearts. The matrimonial union of man and woman is indissoluble: God himself has determined it ‘what therefore God has joined together, let no man put asunder’.
When marrying a non Catholic the Catholic Church requires that the children be baptized in a Catholic Church and brought up in the Catholic religion.
