IF YOU’RE in search of wild, off-the-wall Christian conspiracy theories look no further than LifeSiteNews which this week gave space to a deranged Catholic called John Horvat II, above, who declared that people not normally known for messing around with the occult are now in cahoots with evil spell-casters to destroy America.

Commenting on the recent protests over the death of George Floyd, Horvat – Vice President of the barmy American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property – reveals:

The left has used the occasion to bring together ecologists, socialists, feminists, LGBT activists, pro-abortion advocates, and others to push their false class struggle narratives upon the American public. Less known, however, is the involvement of darker forces. Satanists and witches were invoking evil powers to aid those participating in the violence.

The witches, he says:

Are part of a growing movement mixing politics and the occult. Numerous books of spells have been published since the 2016 elections advising occultist activists how to invoke the powers of darkness for political causes. Witches and satanists are appearing more often in public to push their agenda and display their scorn for God and His Law.

Such occult activism appears at odds with past leftist policies. The left used to follow a secular outlook that did not recognize spiritual powers of any kind. It always tried to keep politics and Christianity separate by labeling Christian action as superstitious. However, the left is now welcoming witches and occultists with their dark arts into the public square.

He then refers his readers to a Mashable report that says witches’ covens are actively engaged in hexing police, whom they accuse of brutality. They especially target those who are risking their lives to stop the riots. The witches also cast spells asking for protection for protesters that confront the police. Witch activists used their dark arts as cutting-edge weapons for those who want to engage in a more spiritual class warfare.

Horvat then points out that:

Religious Americans have no problem understanding the presence of the occult in this fight. If Christian prayers to God can affect events, then invocations to the devil also can have major consequences … This is why the involvement of witches in the protests is so troubling to those Christians who understand the full implications of dark magic.

Their action involves real forces that are dangerous and sinister. The Catholic Encyclopedia defines occultist magic as ‘the art of performing actions beyond the power of man with the aid of powers other than the Divine.’

When taken seriously, its practitioners expect and obtain the interference of demons or lost souls for evil ends. The Church admits that spirits other than God can interfere in events, although never without God’s permission. Prayers of exorcism aim to limit the devil’s action over individuals and situations.

In the present crisis, the last thing needed is occult involvement like the witch’s spells and incantations. This will only increase the chaos and conflict. Satan is the spirit of division and hatred. America now needs to turn to God to defeat the actions of Satan, who prowls about, seeking the ruin of souls and whole societies.

I’ll let Horvat into a little secret: Romania is said to be the witchcraft capital of Europe, and last year a YouTube video revealed that there had been a collaboration between a wizard in the US and anti-corruption witches in Romania to cast a spell on Trump.

It’s tempting to think that all the misfortunes that have lately dogged the sorry excuse for a President were the result of their spell-casting but the mundane reality is that he’s in deep doo-doo because of good old fashioned arrogance, incompetence and stupidity. He makes Dan Quayle, a former Vice President who couldn’t spell “potato”, look like an intellectual giant.

Update (20.6.20): Trump has suffered yet another humiliation. A federal judge has denied a Trump administration request to block former national security adviser John Bolton’s book from being published.

US District Judge Royce Lamberth wrote in an order released today (Saturday) that:

While Bolton’s unilateral conduct raises grave national security concerns, the government has not established that an injunction is an appropriate remedy.
