A recent letter to the General Secretary of the USCCB has been
made public in which the Apostolic Nuncio, writing at the request of the
Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, reminds that
clerics AND faithful may not participate in "meetings, conferences or public
celebrations during which the credibility of such 'apparitions [at
Medjugorje]' would be taken for granted." The CDF is still investigating
aspects of the alleged apparitions, which are controversial for a number of
reasons (including frequency of alleged apparitions, promised healings &
signs which never materialized, 'road show' apparitions, money-making
aspects, contradictions/lies, disobedience, troubling messages, etc.). Past
examinations of the alleged apparitions have found nothing of a supernatural
origin.
"I am sure that Our Lady does not appear. No
miracles. The 'Messages' cannot be of our Virgin. They are the fruit of a
fabrication, fraud and disobedience to the Church. It is about big money and
personal interest too." (Michael Davies quoting Monsignor Zanic, bishop of
Mostar-Duvno)
