Hmmm the afterlife, that is a very good question. To be totally honest im not sure where i stand with the idea of an afterlife. I prefer not to say there is or there isnt due to the fact i have no experiance in the area nor do i know either statment to be true. I prefer to keep an open mind and aim not to focus on the Beginning or end, but on the journet between.

Im sorry i personally dont know the answer to that one, however i have looked up the subject and this is what i have found : Parchment 1 - There are badly aligned letters, these form an odd sentence in French, in English it reads: ‘To King Dagobert II and to Sion belongs this treasure and he is there dead [or ‘it is death’]. Many researchers doubt that the parchments that Sauniere found has ever existed. Had builders not witnessed Sauniere finding the parchments under the alter stone in 1887, the story would have been written off as a great hoax. But one of the undeniable facts of this case is, Sauniere spent an extravagant amount of money, the thing is though, where did he get it from? There are many possibilities, many of them are far-fetched, but there are a number of possibilities that stand up to serious scrutiny. Parchment 2 - This parchment contains 128 superfluous letters, they have been translated and read: ‘shepherdess no temptation to which poussin Teniers hold the key peace 681 with the cross and this horse of god I reach this demon guardian at midday blue apples. Theory 1 The best known of these theories is that of the ‘sacred bloodline’. It was originally proposed in a BBC documentary film, by Henry Lincoln, the theory is based on the assumption that Jesus did not die on the cross, but was administered a drug while on the cross to make it appear as if he had died. Jesus was then taken down from the cross, by his followers, and taken to a safe place. (Simon of Cyrene, is a popular candidate, that takes Jesus’ place on the cross, in another version of the theory.) According to this theory, Jesus married Mary Magdalene, had a son, and left Palestine, for the relative safety of south-west France. His decedents were said to have married into the Merovingian dynasty. The mysterious royal family that was accredited with magical powers. When Jesus died in AD 74, he was buried in the south of France, and his remains were eventually hidden in the Rennes area. In the book, The Tomb of God, Richard Andrews and Paul Schellenbeger, name the burial place of Jesus as the west side of Mount Cardou, which is just to the south of Rennes. If Berenger Sauniere did discover the whereabouts of and existence of Jesus’s remains, then he would have had a powerful bargaining tool, with which to blackmail to church with. While the Merovingian king, Dagobert II, is mentioned in one of the parchments, there is no other evidence that is convincing enough to persuade the church that the resurrection did not happen, and this is the reason why the theory the that Sauniere was blackmailing the church falls apart, he would have had very little bargaining power with which to use to against the church. Theory 2 Another theory suggests that the wealth came from blackmailing the wealthy parishioners. The evidence for this theory comes from their attitudes towards him and their characters, in particular two bishops of Carcassonne. One of them, bishop Billard, had a laissez-faire approach to the happenings at Rennes, and he did not mind Sauniere. But Billard was replaced in 1902 by bishop Beasejour, he wanted to know where Sauniere had got the money from, and he demanded an answer of Sauniere. The answer came back as ‘I have wealthy penitents!’ The problem with this theory is that Sauniere would have needed a great deal of penitents, that had a large amount of money, because Sauniere spent such a large amount continuously, it is more likely that the reply was meant to mean mind your own business. Theory 3 Another theory for Sauniere’s riches was that the parchments contained the location of a secret horde of treasure. Many researches agree that they could have been treasure maps, but the dissension comes from what was the treasure, and who hid it? The main contender of the treasure’s original owner is the Cathars, a religious sect that flourished in and around the Rennes area until the late 13th Century. The Cathars were also known as the Albigensians, and they believed that the world was the creation of the Devil. They were persecuted and nearly wiped out by the Catholic Church during this time (13th Century) and they made a last stand in a mountaintop fortress on the slopes of Montsegur, that was located in southwest France. Just before the Catholics overwhelmed them, four mountaineers escaped from the stronghold by night, they were carrying what they later called ‘the treasures of their faith, pecuniam infinitam’ which translates as unlimited money. One question that is now asked is ‘did Sauniere discover the secret hiding place of the lost Cathar treasure?’ and if so, what was it? Dr Arthur Guirdham, who is a leading authority on Catharism, thinks that the treasure was some sort of esoteric knowledge, a nd that the mountaineers had hidden books about the area of Rennes. If this was the case, what did the books contain? Could the Cathars unlimited money have been the philosophers stone - the knowledge of how to make ordinary metals into gold? There is a little evidence that Sauniere had an interest in alchemy, the forerunner of chemistry. Just inside the church there are a strange group of statues, they were placed there by Sauniere during the restoration. At the base of the statues is the demon Asmodeus, the guardian of forbidden treasure, above his head is a bowl of holy water, and above this are carvings of two salamanders, creature that are myth and lived in fire. Above the salamanders are four angels, that are beings of air or spirit. They are making the sign of the cross. Earth, Water, Fire and Air are also symbols of alchemical theory. Could these all be hints that Sauniere’s wealth was the result of alchemy? We will never know for sure. _______________ The greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his life by altering his attitudes of mind. William James (1842 - 1910) |

On June 1, 1885, the French village of Rennes-le-Château received a new parish priest: Bérenger Saunière. He wanted to restore the church. In 1891, Sauniere started renovations during which he found four parchments. Two of these parchments are said to have comprised genealogies. The two remaining documents had apparently been composed in the 1789s by one of Sauniere's predecessors, the Abbé Antoine Bigou. These parchments comprise a sequence of ingenious ciphers or codes. Some of them are fantastically complex. Realizing he had stumbled on something of consequence he brought his discovery to the bishop of Carcassonne. Sauniere was then sent to Paris to present himself and the parchments to certain ecclesiastical authorities. Between 1885 and 1891 Saunière's income averaged in francs the equivalent of six pounds sterling per year. After 1891, he was able to extract vast amounts of monies from the Church which was spent on unusual interior church designs that prominently featured unusually dark interpretations of Christ's crucifixion. What was it about the coded parchment that allowed the curé to spend up big for rest of his life? |

hmmm now from what i remember: In the middle of 1885 sometime i think July ( i could be wrong).Bérenger Saunière has just been ordained as a priest and has arrived to take office in the village of Rennes-le-Château in France. He approached his church for the first time only to discover it was almost a complete ruin. The roof was all but missing and when it rained, water would pour through the gaping holes, much of it falling upon the altar itself. The windows were boarded up to prevent even more damage occurring to the stained glass from the violent storms. The presbytery was literally uninhabitable. It was not the start he had hoped for and it is clear to imagine why he must have felt that the religious establishment seemed to be looking down on him with some degree of contempt. Towards the end of 1885 the State elections were taking place in Rennes-le-Château, Bérenger Saunière, began campaigning for the people to cast their votes against the Republican party. This was from a man who had barely set foot in his own church. Unfortunately for Saunière the Republicans won the elections and obviously bitter at a priest who had actively encouraged the electorate to vote against them, went out of their way to seek retribution. He was promptly denounced to the authorities of the region for inciting public disorder and trying to influence the electoral system. As a result the authorities ordered that his salary should be withheld. Saunière approached his Bishop, who on seeing the difficulty he was in, immediately gave him 200 Francs and appointed him as a professor where he remained for about a year, the date on which his suspension was lifted. He returned to Rennes-le-Château and took up where he had left off........ Thats as much as i really remember....erm am i close? _______________ The greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his life by altering his attitudes of mind.

Jaiko, what did Berenger Sauniere find at Rennes-Le-Chateau that enabled him to blackmail the Catholic church in 1885? |
