Subject: The conclusion of your Pontificate
Pax vobis, my dear brother in Christ!
Acknowledging our respective
responsibilities before the Throne of God and our abysmal limitations
as fallen men, it is my desire to candidly share with you our profound
concern regarding the current state of your Pontificate.
We take such liberty justified by circumstances similar to those St.
Paul was faced with ca. 1,950 years ago and which are recorded in his
Letter to the Galatians (1).
The contribution of your Pontificate to the Catholic Faith and the
World at large through the years 1994/95 has been unparalleled in
history. Unfortunately, just as our Lord Jesus Christ warned your
predecessor (2), you have been lead to where you
do not want to go.
Allowing to be lead to where you do not want to go is seriously
undermining the past achievements of your Pontificate.
The scandal caused by allowing the falsehood of the alleged third part
of the Secret of Fátima (3)
to be read in your presence, has caused worldwide consternation and the
loss of your credibility amongst many of the Portuguese faithful.
The scandal caused by the indecision regarding the Cardinals,
Archbishops and Bishops involved in the cover up of the sexual abuse of
children (4) -
a crime which Our Lord Jesus Christ clearly identified and for which He
issued a most severe warning (5) - has cast a
crippling doubt upon the quality of the current leadership of the
Church.
The scandal caused by the Beatification and Canonization of José María
Escrivá (6), has been the proverbial last straw
which broke the camel's back.
Raising to the altars a man who, under the cover of a hollow piety,
cleverly taught that man may serve God and Mammon simultaneously (7); a teaching which is in
total contradiction with the most basic tenets of Christian Doctrine (8),
has now cast doubts on the holiness of the many Saints venerated by the
Catholic Church as well as
in your ability to act for the pleasure of God and not of man. (9)(10)
Thus, dearest brother, in order to protect from further erosion what is
left of the great legacy of your Pontificate we entreat you, in the
Name of God, to withdraw from the Chair of Peter and remain,
for what
is left of your temporal life, in seclusion until such time when you
will be called by events to act in fulfillment of the remaining
prophecies relative to your person.
Let us keep each other in mutual prayer seeking that the Mercy of God,
which we do not deserve but humbly accept, come to the rescue of the
admirable fruits of your Pontificate.
At His service, thus at yours, I remain simply....

NOTES
(1) Galatians 2: 11-14
"And
when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face because he
clearly was wrong. For, until some people came from James, he used to
eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he began to draw back and
separated himself, because he was afraid of the circumcised. And the
rest of the Jews (also) acted hypocritically along with him, with the
result that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy. But when
I saw that they were not on the right road in line with the truth of
the Gospel, I said to Cephas in front of all, 'If you, though a Jew,
are living like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the
Gentiles to live like Jews?'"
(2) John 21:18
"Amen,
amen, I say to you, when you were younger, you used to dress
yourself and go where you wanted; but when you grow old, you will
stretch out your hand, and someone else will dress you and lead you
where you do not want to go"
(3) Third
Part of the Secret of Fátima - In Conclusion - Part II
(4) Child
Sexual Abuse is far
worse than Abortion
(5) Matthew 18: 6-7
"Whoever
causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it
would be better for him to have a great millstone hung around his neck
and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Woe to the world because of
things that cause sin! Such things must come, but woe to the one
through whom they come!"
(6) His unromanticized original name.
(7) No one can simultaneously
serve Mammon and also God - Exposing the Fallacy of the Opus Dei and
others
(8) Matthew 6: 24
"No one can serve two masters.
He will either hate one and love the
other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God
and mammon."
(9) 2003 - After our
initial
defense of John Paul II, we cannot endorse his post-1994 Papacy
(10) 1 Thessalonias 2:4
"But
as we were judged worthy by God to be entrusted with the Gospel,
that is how we speak, not as trying to please human beings, but rather
God, Who judges our hearts."
