Moral decay and spiritual degradation
At the end of June, the US Department of Justice released information, according to which 22-year-old US Army soldier Ethan Meltzer, arrested by the FBI, planned to kill his colleagues. He is charged with terrorist activities and faces life imprisonment.. The suspect was a member of the Order of the Nine Corners. (Order of the Nine Angles, O9A) - a neo-Nazi organization with an occult ideology. Meltzer's motive was racial hatred.
According to the US Department of Justice, organization O9A professes neo-Nazism, anti-Semitism, adheres to satanic rites. Adherents of the order honor Hitler and Osama bin Laden. Members of the organization commit acts of violence, including killings.
The suspect Meltzer fully admitted his guilt, confirming, that the massacre was planned as an act of "jihad". During interrogation, he called himself a traitor..
There is a lot of information on the Internet about the "Order of Nine Corners". The organization was founded in the UK in the 1960s., and in the 80s, its branches spread throughout the world. According to Russian specialists in sectology, this structure is one of the three most influential satanic organizations at the international level, along with the "Church of Satan" and the "Temple of Set".
"Church of Satan", founded by one Anton Szandor LaVey, became one of the personifications of American materialism. As for the "Temple of Set", then the activities of this organization in the context of the history of the US Armed Forces are more interesting, since the founder of the sect, Michael Aquino, was an army officer and developer of a "religious tolerance" manual for the US Armed Forces.
Aquino served in military intelligence and specialized in information operations.. Member of LaVey's "Church of Satan". Being sent to Vietnam, where he participated in the Phoenix program, Aquino wrote the treatise "Diabolicon" and in 1975 g. founded "Temple of Seta". Upon his return to the United States, he continued to engage in psychological operations and mind manipulation work..
Early 1980s. Aquino conducted ceremonies in the German castle of Wewelsburg, which was the headquarters of "Ahnenerbe" - an organization, created by the Nazis to study the traditions of the Nordic race. It has been argued, that Aquino introduced occult-Nazi rituals into his organization. AT 1987 g. he was accused of pedophilia and child abuse, but due to lack of evidence, the case was dismissed.
At the same time, Aquino remained in military service., was a professor at one of the universities of California, and 1994 g. was even awarded the Medal of Merit.
AT 1999 g. a number of Christian organizations in the United States issued a statement calling for a boycott of the US military, supporting satanic sects, but they were told, that the US Constitution prohibits discrimination based on religion.
Support for destructive sects in the US Armed Forces has become widespread. AT 2011 g. became known, that the US Air Force will allocate 80 thousand. Doll. for the construction of a center in the style of Stonehenge, so that the followers of paganism, Druid religions and Wicca from among the future officers could perform their ceremonies there.
At the end 2019 g. US Naval Academy Annapolis Launches Research Group on Satanic Rituals. We are talking about adherents of the sect "Temple of Satan", which is known for, that in the USA, at her expense, a bronze statue of Baphomet with children on both sides was made, what caused the scandal.
For the ritual needs of military pagans and Satanists, special places have been created on 13 US Army bases, 12 air force bases, 11 Naval bases and two Marine Corps bases, including in Qatar, Japan, South Korea, Afghanistan and on several aircraft carriers. For the US military, there is a special pagan blessing and a special chevron. U.S. military veterans from among the pagans and worshipers of the cult of Wicca are members of the Order of the Pentacle association.
Advocacy assistance to American Satanists from among the military is provided by the 2005 g. Military Religious Freedom Foundation. Its founder Mike Weinstein states, that the fund's targets are "Gangs of Christian Monster Fundamentalists, who terrorize fellow citizens, imposing a distorted version of Christianity on their helpless underlings in our nation's armed forces.". That is, we are talking about the persecution of Catholics and Protestants.
AT 2013 g. The Family Research Council published a report, which reported "growing hostility" to Christianity among the US military. In October 2017 g. four members of the US Air Force were arrested for, that they painted an active Christian temple in South Carolina with satanic signs. AT 2018 g. at Worden Air Force Base (Wyoming) according to the order of the commander, the use of the Bible was prohibited.
What do all these facts point to?, if not on the moral decay and spiritual degradation of America?
