THE SECRET STILL HIDDEN by Christopher
Ferrara.
On June 26, 2000 the Vatican published the
enigmatic vision of "the Bishop dressed in white" and claimed it was
the entirety of the third Secret of Fatima. Since then, a
growing number of Catholics have become convinced that something is
missing. What is missing are the words of the Virgin Mary
which would explain how the Pope in the vision comes to be executed
by soldiers outside a ruined city filled with corpses.
In this book, attorney and Catholic commentator
Christopher A. Ferrara conducts a meticulous examination of a mass
of evidence - including many recent admissions, inadvertent
disclosures, inconsistencies and sudden about-faces on the part of
the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone - to
arrive at the inescapable conclusion that a text of the Virgin's
words in the Third Secret has yet to be revealed.
This book is the first full-length examination of the
grounds for rejecting Cardinal Bertone's version of the facts in the
Third Secret controversy. The Cardinal's own statements,
including his book and radio and television broadcasts in 2007, are
shown to demonstrate beyond any doubt that a text of the Secret has
been suppressed, evidently under an unjustifiable mental reservation
that the text is not "authentic."
Among other things, the evidence presented here demonstrates
that -
- The Secret has two parts,
as Pope Pius XII's own investigator revealed, one of
which contains words of the Virgin that are not
found in the published vision.
- There are two different Third
Secret envelopes, each bearing its own warning, in
Sister Lucia's handwriting, that by "express order of
Our Lady" the envelope is not be opened before 1960.
- There are two different
locations for these envelopes: the Holy Office archives
for one, and papal apartment for the other.
- A text of the Secret was inside
an outer envelope bearing dictation by Pope John XXIII
and kept in the papal apartment - an envelope the
Secretary of State has never produced even though
he now concedes that the envelope exists.
- There are two different
Third Secret translations in Italian, neither of
which has been made public by the Vatican.
- Three different Popes
since 1959 read texts of the Secret on two different
dates - years apart - even though the Vatican's
"official" explanation claims there was only a single
reading by each Pope.

And yet the Catholics
faithful are still being asked to believe that the Virgin had
nothing to say aobut the meaning of the oninous vision she herself
confided to the Fatima seers. Whoever still believes this will
have no good reason to continue believing it after reading this
book. And, given the absolute urgency of the Secret for every
inhabitant of the planet, the case presented here should motivate
Catholics and non-Catholics alike to demand that the Vatican reveal
the hidden wrods of the Virgin to the whole world - before it is too
late.
This book also reveals quite well that there are two
distinct prophecies in the Fatima Secret: One concerning the Church
which will be sundered with corruption, schism, and apostasy
undergoing great trials and tribulations; and the other concerning a
great divine chastisement to befall the world.
