Blessed Vatican
Like some baby-boomers, I had read regarding the Virgin Mary's Fatima Prophecies. So when 1960 rolled around, I was very disappointed when the Vatican refused to release the famous Third Secret of Fatima. By the time the Third Secret was at long last freed in 2000, I had been a practicing civil rights attorney for more than twenty years and had sued government officials, federal judges and even a sitting U.S. President. This experience had shown me how high rating officials in bureaucracies use stonewalling, disinformation, tampering and retaliation to preserve and advertize their own mystery agendas. Even if you're not a fan of the Virgin Mary, you'd be hard-pressed not to recognize that the Vatican has routinely used these and other proficiencies to thwart messages the Virgin Mary had has been reported to have given for the duration of the Modern Marian Era. It started out in 1846 when Mary appeared to two shepherd children at La Salette, near the French Alps. After the local bishop and Vatican approved the apparition, Melanie Calvat, one of the seers, disclosed a mystery given to her by the Virgin in a book she wrote in 1879. Because Melanie's book chastised the apostasy in the Catholic Church, and anticipated foes of Christ would abolish civil and canon law, the Vatican flip-flopped and banned the book. All copies were ordered destroyed.1 Both the tone and content of the letters the Vatican had written in their attempts to keep Melanie Calvat from publicly sharing the Secret of La Salette reminded me of a letter I received from the U.S. Attorney in San Francisco. Written in response to my allegations of fraud and failures in the Reagan Administration's enforcement of civil rights laws, it merely read, "These cases are over. There is not one thing further to be done in them. Close your file." La Salette was not the only time the Roman Curia has tried to put a muzzle on the Mother of God. It had done so with the Fatima's Third Secret as well. So urgent was Our Lady's message contained in it, the Vatican dispatched an envoy with a copy to President Kennedy, Soviet leader Nikita Krushchev and British Prime Minister Harold MacMillan. As a result, a treaty was signed by almost 200 nations which banned nuclear testing in the air, on land and on sea.2 Although it was Our Lady's clear aim the Third Secret be revealed to the public in 1960, the Vatican failed to do so until 2000. Even now, there is a little army of clergy, writers, forensic experts and members of the faithful who contend the Vatican's version does not line up factually or logically with what is known in regards to the Secret. They believe that like the La Salette Secret, it holds a chastisement of Church leaders and warns of future attacks on civil rights and cannon law. This sent me on a mission to learn all I could with regards to the secrecy surrounding the Virgin Mary. I ran into her primary apparition in the United States was reported to have been made to George Washington at Valley Forge, in 1777. An account of the event was published in The National Tribune and discussed more not so long ago by acclaimed Marian expert Janice T. Connell. 3 It seemed very revealing that I couldn't recall having been taught this in history classes or ever reading when it comes to it in any religious literature. The next case I came upon occurred in 1949, when Mary Ann Van Hoof, a housewife in Necedah, Wisconsin, reported visits from the Virgin Mary. When an approximated 100,000 pilgrims flocked to her little farm, the local bishop declared the visions to be untrue and prohibited worship there. When Mrs. Van Hoof and her followers continued their worship, they were placed beneath interdiction.4 I also read in the December 9, 1974, issue of The New York Times in regards to reported apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary at Bayside New York. After the local bishop banned worship at the site, seer Veronica Lueken and her followers at last moved to a permanent shrine near Shea Stadium. After an investigation, the bishop ruled the apparitions lacked authenticity and were contrary to church teachings.5 The La Salette and Bayside apparitions had various things in common. They were the initial public apparitions in the United States. They cautioned of secrecy and wrongdoing by Church and government officials centered around money, information, civil rights and education. Both also involved retaliation versus the seers and sham, self-serving investigations by Church officials. In an undertake to test my theory that the Virgin's messages have been suppressed, I requested a copy of the Bayside investigation determinations from Nicholas DiMarzio, Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn. To my amazement, the Bayside apparitions had been disapproved without any input or consultations with Veronica Lueken, or her numerous followers. 1 Beevers, John, The Sun Her Mantle, The Newman Press, 1954, page 90.

How some other "Holy relics" are faked by the vatican to con persons into joining there sect? Among the Roman Catholic Church's most highly venerated relics have been pieces of the "true Cross". So some of these were scattered all around Europe and other constituents of the world that Calvin once said that if all pieces were assembled together, they would form a good ship-load; yet the Cross of Christ was carried by one individual! Are we to believe that these pieces miraculously multiplied as when Jesus blessed the loaves and fishes? Such was apparently the faith of St. Paulinus who spoke of "the reintegration of the Cross", i.e. that it "never grew littler in size, no matter how a good deal of pieces were isolated from it"! [The Catholic Encyclopaedia, Vol. 4, p. 524] Watch for reliquaries that incorporate "sand" that turns to "blood" once a year (or whenever it's taken out and given a good shake). Totally fake. The Shroud of Turyn appears to be fake, but there's a good deal of controversy because the stitching seems to be of the style applied back in the early ADs. |
