"The Vatican's spokesperson for the event, Archbishop Rino Fisichella, the president of the Pontifical Council for the New Evangelization, called the event "unique...for its genre and for the fact that it is being displayed for the first time on such a significant backdrop." (LifeSite News) "These illuminations will present images inspired of Mercy, of humanity, of the natural world, and of climate changes," he said. "Fisichella said that the light show on the Vatican is meant to link Pope Francis' environment encyclical Laudato si' with the United Nations Climate Change Conference (Cop21) currently underway in Paris. The Vatican has shown strong support for the conference. Having the show conclude the opening Year of Mercy celebrations also links the pope's message about "mercy" to fighting "climate change." "St. Peter's 'climate change' light show and its prototype held in New York last August are bizarrely connected to pagan occultism. "The shows director Travis Threlkel, founder and creative director of Obscura, said in an August interview when discussing the New York version of the show that was projected onto the Empire State Building, that pagan deities were specifically incorporated into the presentation. He said the show included the greek pagan goddess Gaia, a Greek Mother Earth who has been appropriated by worshipers of nature, along with Aya, a Babylonian mother goddess associated with the rising sun and with sexual love. "It was at the New York show's end that startling images of the faces of various pagan goddesses were projected onto the building. Predominantly displayed was an image of Kali, the Hindu goddess of death and destruction. Kali, who was depicted with a long blood red tongue and whose name means "the black one," promised wealth to those who satiated her lust for blood by human sacrifice. Daily human sacrifices of young children were offered on her altars in India until 200 years ago. She has since been culturally appropriated by New Age spirituality as a kind of Mother Earth goddess. "Pagan goddesses resurrected in full digital life for our times got nothing on "Android" Andrew Jones:
"Android" Andrew Jones, the artist behind the image, said at that time that he wanted to depict Mother Earth in her "fiercest form" to draw attention to what might happen if people ignored the implications of climate change. (LifeSite News) "The Vatican show included artwork and computer-generated designs by Jones, but it is unknown at this time what artwork was featured. "Jones, one of the world's foremost digital painters and projection artists, specializes in portraying terrifying images of Greek, Roman and Eastern pagan deities. He said in an interview last month that he turns to these gods and goddesses by means of "psychedelic substances" (mind altering drugs) so that he can portray them accurately. He said the "deities" are "actively involved" in guiding his hand as he makes the work."Better to blame someone else for talent in digital and projection artwork.
"These [drugs] are tools that grant portals and access into different realms that I still haven't fully been able to grasp or say that I have uncovered all of their meanings. ... They have evolved my ability to ... discover new and interesting combinations of energy and matter. Some have ... shown me greater nightmares than I could ever depict or wish to imagine ever again." (LifeSite News) "These spirits and the deities that [the images] represent [in India, Greece, etc.] are actively involved, enrolled, and contributing to humans reinventing the visual vernacular of these beings as time and technology evolves," he said. "Jones said that good art connects the viewer to something "mystical." He said in a 2010 video interview that a good reaction to his art happens when people "throw up, or urinate themselves, or [release] any sort of bodily excrement." (Emphasis CFP's)"What Jones meant by the release of "any sort of bodily excrement" would only go over the heads of children. Meanwhile, as UN delegates were failing to save the world from a man-made global warming that doesn't exist, the loved ones of the 14 San Bernardino innocents butchered by an Islamic terrorism many world leaders, including President Barack Obama, claim doesn't exist, were heartbreakingly burying their dead. Tragically the only reality for the global warming/climate change cult is the digital one that can be projected onto walls in 3D.
