Secular techno feudalism is what Templars and Vatican will be up against, imo.
Will we get new type of ecclesia feudalism instead, and how it will look like?
Average European peasant in medieval times was asked to work on Church properties about 2 week a year, and was given in exchange enough food to sustain him and his family for a year.
How much more time English, French, German, Polish or Hungarian peasant for that matter had to work on their lords land to fulfill quota, get food , shelter and protection in exchange?
Historians agree that many times more than on Church land.
This was most likely the biggest rift in medieval societies. Church for most of part was fair, secular land owners for most part were not, since they were chiefly operated by greed.
Hence efforts of so called religious reformations throughout of centuries of Christendom always had a component of separating people from their fruits of labor, or forcing them to work for free, starting with Cathars and ending recently with rat race of prosperity Gospel.
So technocrats are preparing Terafab chip factory as our new currency and new Fort Knox.
What will Templars prepare in opposition to this rise of the Mineral Man?
Will it be continuation of their alliance with City of London and Rothschilds or something entirely different?
They brought us maps of new world, and geographical discoveries, what else they have uncovered from the old scrolls in Holly Land and Constantinople?.
Is it time to share with humanity these discoveries.? Are we mature enough to handle it?.

Hi Elizabeth… Yes I would offer my own God Hiistory and Dialectic as Scarmoge pointed out. There are “holes” in the work but it is as comprehensive as a semester course meeting 9hours a week could make it. You asked about Holy Cross, and I am wondering which Holy Cross you’re talking about? If you’re talking about the main seminary for the Greek Archdiocese of North and South America, I have not been in any situation to maintain any knowledge of that institution in almost 35 years. All I know is that Holy Cross has kept my translation and introduction of St. Phoios’ Mystagogy of the Holy Spirit in print, and that is quite some time as I did that as my master’s thesis decades ago. That’s about all I know about Holy Cross. I have to say almost the same for St. Vladimir’s and St. Tikhon’s and have no knowledge of what is going on at Jordanville. If you’re referring to any Roman Catholic seminary of the same name then I’m afraid I’m even less useful as I have not known much about the state of Roman seminaries in America since the death of Cardinal O’Connor many years ago. I was informed about 30-35 years ago by someone within Cardinal O’Connor’s inner circle that he regarded virtually all Roman seminaries, even back then, as primarily unsound. So my answer as far as Holy Cross goes has to be a big “I don’t know.”
