It is wrong to judge as 'bad' everything that comes from the Jesuit order. One of the examples of the bright and honest scholar among the members of this much ciriticized order is French historian and classical philologist Jean Hardouin (1646-1729). He was publisher and commentator of the classical writers. He collected, as well, documents from all the church councils, up to 1714. He is generally renown for his 'peculiar' theory that some works of the classical literature were, as matter of fact, falsified.
What Russian historian Anatoly Fomenko writes on Hardouin in his controversial book „History – Fiction or Science?“ This: „Hardouin had claimed that Christ and his apostles, if they existed at all, must have read their sermons in Latin. He was convinced that the Greek translations of the New and the Old Testament date from a much later epoch then the church presumes. He had named St. Augustine among the fraudolent Christian classics and didn't trust the veracity of his works. He had also mentioned falsification of nearly all the „ancient“ coins, works of art, stone carvings, and particularly, the documents of the all Ecoumenical Councils that have preceded Council of Trident (1545-1563).
The reaction of Hardouin's contemporaries to his iconoclasm is of as great an interest to us as his criticism of historical sources. Hardouin naturally got criticized, but usually sotto voce, which leaves one with impression that the critics themselves were well aware that the publication of the apocryphal works had been the norm relatively recently. Even his most vehemnt opponents acknowledged that Hardouin's academic eminence and his highest authority in scientific world made it unnecessary to seek for cheap publicity of a nihilist or to amuse himself with disclosures that irritated ecclesiastical and scientific circles alike. Only deep conviction about the veracity of the critical approach to chronology and historiography could have made Hardouin dare to oppose the entire canonical science and theology.“
What has happened after Hardouin's death in 1729 is, that most of the „ancient“ sources that he had exposed have been „rehabilitated“ and once again taken seriously, as historical science.
What seems oddish, is that features of Jean Harduin quite resemble William Morgan's and William Lyne's. Is it possible that Hardouin is their earlier incarnation?
WRITINGS OF 'PISO FAMILY'
David Icke in his book „The Biggest Secret“ at length cites Abelard Reuchlin, and his book „The True Authorship of the New Testament“(1979). And that seemed a plausible explanation of the real truth behind the Bible. But, only for a couple of years, because - then appeared the book „History – Fiction or Science?“, from which is evident that not only writing of Bible has been forged, but – the whole goddamn history of the 1st millenium A.D. According to Fomenko, in XVI and XVII c. it was simply 'invented' and them 'inserted' thousand years of history, which he proved at length in his voluminous work.
However, not all written by Reuchlin is to be dismissed. In his second book, named „Piso's Further Writings“ we could have already surmised that something is wrong with writings, works by praised 'ancient' authors, philosophers, historians and others. He cites as forged (although ascribing them all to members of Piso family instead to medieval monks) or, if we use scientific term, pseudo-epigraphical, - works by Aristotle, Plutarch, Claudius Ptolemy, Diogenes Laertus and some other authors
