Here is the organism. The tiara or Papal Egyptian blazon, which represents papal infallible authority, an indelible seal of the monarchical prerogatives of the political state of the Vatican, we see appearing in all the dioceses of the Catholic World. This seal and its meanings are significant in order for you to be able to distinguish the Episcopal or abatable miters, another insignia of authority, from the papal tiara. During the centuries, the Vatican has created a Science apart from heraldry, with all the combinations of architectural art, symbols and colors of the ecclesiastical vestments, etc... I recall in Seville my parochial insignias: the emblems, colors, shoes with silver buckles, bottoms, solideos, pluvial capes, roquetas of the fine linen and embroidered in the best factories with fine gold thread, etc. And I was only a parson (vicar) then. You many take for granted the many uniforms of Cathedral beneficiaries, canons, royal chaplains pages and thousands of liturgical wardrobes of the most fine fabrics of Arabia, of various colored silk for every day of the year (blue for Mary's Immaculate conception, December 8; red for the Holy spirit, etc). To continue, visit the cathedral museum or any other museum in the Vatican, basilicas, sanctuaries, etc, and you with your THE POWER OF THE VATICAN 5 own eyes will comprehend the prodigality of the finances, offerings and other money you offer to God to be distributed among the poor. I remember that in expo 92, which is celebrated in Seville, Spain, from the pavilion of the Vatican one could see the whole Museum of Art in gold, from monstrance's, chalices, , and liturgical instruments to unnecessary pectorals, crucifixes of the most fine silver, kilates in gold, etc. In my mind, I could not but recall the armed robbery and despoilment committed by the Catholic Church's death- and-blood plunderers, who called themselves the representatives of Christ's Church, upon their arrival to the Americas, destroying not only the natives cultures in blood and fire but also taking their patrimony. It was the moment of the Spanish Renascence and its ally the Spanish Pope Alexander VI, whose abominable lifestyle and Vatican corruption go to germinate the New World. The worst thing about these abuses was that they were done in the name of Christianity. And to confound and deceive, Americans were regularly chosen for the evangelization of the native people or tribes. Let the lector remember that the many cathedrals and all these sacred vases embossed with the most precious and appraised stones of the most renowned and famous European goldsmiths, silversmiths, artists and architects internationally, and the schools whose artworks, imagery, glass cases, alter pieces, retable, choral chairs, etc, were all part of the European, Spanish, Flemish, etc, Renaissance. When I have visited the Mexican Cathedrals and their museums in the Church of Santo Domingo, all in gold, I was amazed. I could not comprehend in the least how, being on the frontiers of the starving natives, they allowed them to die of famine, sicknesses, abandonment, etc. I could better 6 Monsenor Rafael Rodriguez Guillen comprehend where their offerings ended up; and how the missionaries sent to Mexico by the Vatican continue to rule and rob (by armed robbery) the riches and tithes belonging to the poor, wretched natives. If these Vatican thieves would dedicate themselves to distributing those riches to the native population, it would no doubt solve the problem. Mexico is still a country where millions of natives still live in extreme poverty, without being rescued by civilization. The Vatican's finances are easily known when, as this servant, one has dedicated his whole life to the investigation and auditing of her financial structure. The few times, I have been allowed to do any investigating on the administration of the Vatican and her dioceses, which I've been called to serve as a monsignor and member of the diocesan finance committees, what I found was very troubling. But the new democracies now open a horizon of hope of being able to properly inform the people, who pay their taxes for religious services, which are generally patronized and sponsored by the convents, seminaries, churches and priests, of how their offerings to God are being spent. They are infallible proofs of her formidable riches. THE POWER OF THE VATICAN 7 VATICANISTS AND CURATES EXPOSE THE VATICAN Now in the 20th century, as we approach the Third Millennium, historians of the Vatican and of the Catholic Curia have been able to tip the information outlets concerning the Vatican's finances, a subject very jealously guarded and prohibited to talk about (under penalty of excommunication). The new democracies and their scientific advances have made it possible to demand from the Vatican the aperture of her secret archives, to put the reality of the state of her finances on the carpet, and to show the world, including Catholic, where their offerings, which are collected in all the world, end up. A growing number of journalists, representing the news media, and who are commissioned and paid for the task, have made their residence in the Vatican, associated as specialists in Vatican affairs and, consequently, in her curia repercussions in the entire world. I insert their names and documented books in the biography at the end of this book.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See ADDRESS OF HIS HOLINESS JOHN PAUL II DURING THE CONSISTORY FOR THE CREATION OF FOURTEEN NEW CARDINALS Paul VI Hall 30 June 1979 Revered Brothers, We rejoice deeply that it has been granted to us to celebrate with you this Consistory, the first one since, by mysterious divine disposition, we were raised to Peter's See. It is a great event in the life of the Church. It is a question, indeed, of creating new Cardinals, who will then be part of the Sacred College, of those whom the Sovereign Pontiffs have as their main advisers and helpers in the government of the universal Church. Above all, according to the established norms, upon them falls the right and the duty to elect the Roman Pontiff, the successor of him whom Christ constituted the "lasting and visible source and foundation of the unity both of faith and of communion" (Constit. Lumen Gentium, 18). Although the number of those who are added to this College today is relatively small—as you know, there exist some limits with regard to the number of Cardinals—nevertheless also these Revered Brothers of ours, who are about to be enrolled in the Senate of the Roman Pontiff, if this term can be used, represent the universal Church in a certain way. 1. It is not without reason and significance that we have convened this chosen gathering today, at the end of the month of June. It is well known that our Predecessor, of unforgotten memory, Pope Paul VI, often gathered the Cardinals in his presence about this time and addressed very serious words to them, sometimes also for the nomination of new members of the Sacred College.

Tears flooding from his eyes, he said, “The Church has lost the right man for the right moment. We are very distressed. We are left frightened.” When Pope Paul VI died, little emotion had been expressed. But when John Paul I died, the entire city was up in arms. Men and women wept openly everywhere. When his body was shown, people passing it were heard to shout, “Who has done this to you? Who has murdered you?” Within two days, the public and the press were loudly demanding an autopsy. But the Vatican was determined that no autopsy be performed, for that might have revealed some- thing new about the cause of death.

Impreso en Colombia Printed in Colombia Sobre el autor El primer libro de David Yallop, titulado Para alentar a los otros, obligo al Gobierno británico a reabrir el caso de asesinato Craig/Bent-ley, que se había considerado resuelto y cerrado veinte años antes. El libro provocó un tumultuoso debate en la Cámara de los Lores, durante el cual lord Arran manifestó: Una de dos: o David Yallop es e! peor bribón que se ha escapado de la horca en toda la historia británica o en relación con este caso de asesinato sólo ha dicho la verdad, toda la verdad y nada más que la verdad. El libro, sumado a un documental escenificado para televisión con libreto del autor, terminó por convencer a mucha gente, desde el anterior lord canciller de Gran Bretaña, lord Gardiner, pasando por lord Arran y lord Goodman, hasta escritores como Arthur Koestler. Todos coincidieron en opinar que había ocurrido una gravísima injusticia. El segundo libro de Yallop, El día en que cesaron las risas, fue ampliamente aclamado a ambos lados del Atlántico y está considerado como la biografía definitiva y la rehabilitación póstuma del famoso actor de cine mudo Roscoe (Fatty) Arbuckle.

  • The Broken Cross: the Hidden Hand in the Vatican Piers Compton
    The Broken Cross: The Hidden Hand in the Vatican Piers Compton Part One What remains when Rome perishes? When Rome falls – the world. Virgil Byron. Its claims were monstrous. They passed beyond human reckoning. For it claimed to be the one divine and authoritative voice on earth; and it taught, gave judgment, and asserted, always in the same valid tone, confident that its message would outlive the transitory phenomena of doubt, change, and contradiction. It stood secure, an edifice of truth behind the ramparts of truth which defied the many and various attacks launched by its enemies. For it claimed a strength that was not of itself, a life-force and vigour imparted by a power that could not be found elsewhere; and because it could not be likened to any earthly thing it provoked fear, bewilderment, mockery, even hate. But through the centuries it never wavered; never abandoned one item of its stupendous inheritance; never allowed the smallest rent to appear in its much derided mantle of intolerance. It inspired devotion and admiration even in those who scorned its mental discipline. It rose above conjecture, likelihood, probability; for the Word by which it had been founded was also its guarantee of permanence. It provided the one answer to the immemorial question – what is truth? One of our essayists told1, as many of our schoolboys used to know, of its place in history; how it saw the beginning, as it was likely to see the end, of our worldly systems; and how, in time to come, a broken arch of London Bridge might furnish a foothold from which a traveller ‘could sketch the ruins of St.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See FUNERAL MASS FOR CARDINAL GIUSEPPE CAPRIO HOMILY OF HIS HOLINESS BENEDICT XVI Altar of the Chair, St Peter's Basilica Tuesday, 18 October 2005 "Do not let your hearts be troubled... I [am] going to prepare a place for you" (Jn 14: 1-2). The words of the Lord Jesus enlighten and comfort us, dear and venerable Brothers, at this time of sorrowful prayer as we gather round the mortal remains of the late Cardinal Giuseppe Caprio, to whom we are offering our last farewell. He left us last Saturday, at the end of a long earthly pilgrimage that led him from a little village in Irpinia to various parts of the world and especially here to Rome, to serve the Holy See for which he spent his life. In his testament we find the serene trust that Christ invites his disciples to make their own. At the very beginning the Cardinal wrote: "I thank the Most Blessed Trinity for having created and redeemed me and for causing me to be born into a family poor in material means but rich in Christian virtue, which, from the earliest years of my childhood, taught me to love God and to obey his holy law". "I thank the Most Blessed Trinity...". Do not these words sum up, as it were, a Christian's life? At the end of the earthly day, the soul recollects in an attitude of intimate and moved gratitude, recognizing everything as a gift and preparing for the definitive embrace with God-Love. This is the same sentiment as the intimate trust in the Lord mentioned in the first reading from the Book of Sirach: "You who fear the Lord, wait for his mercy..
