Another Socci Bombshell on November 27

by Chris Ferrara

Fatima Perspectives #1253

In my column of November 15 I noted the opinion of Monsignor Nicola Bux, no less than a former consultant to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith under Benedict XVI, that it would be useful to “examine the ‘juridical validity’ of Pope Benedict’s XVI’s resignation and ‘whether it is full or partial.’” This was Bux’s suggestion for addressing “problems that today seem insurmountable to us.’” Meaning the problems of a pontificate that seems to be devoted to undermining the constant teaching of the Church in several areas, flatly contradicting even the teaching of both Benedict and John Paul II.  How does one explain such a Pope given the promises of Christ concerning the indefectibility of His Church?

Now, after months of almost total silence concerning this Pope, Antonio Socci emerges with a new book entitled “The Secret of Benedict XVI: Why He is Still Pope” to be released on November 27 by Italy’s Rizzoli publishing house.  As Socci explains: “The Church is going through the most serious crisis in her history.  Why?  What really happened in 2013?  And what type of ‘renunciation’ is that of Benedict XVI? Why does he call himself ‘pope emeritus’? What is his current mysterious mission?”

Rizzoli’s promotional blurb offers a tantalizing hint of the contents, suggesting that this will not be a mere rehash of the arguments that some, including Socci himself, have previously advanced for the invalidity of Benedict’s curiously worded resignation:

“The author conjectures that that there could be supernatural events at the origin of his [Benedict’s] decision. Then there is the deciphering of an ancient prophecy concerning Benedict XVI and finally a new revelation which arrives from Fatima. That regards not only the Church, but the whole world.”

Wow! Sounds like a very exciting book!

My mom looked it up and so far it is only available on Amazon in Italian.  Please God the English version comes quickly.

As soon as it's released there will be reviews online that should reveal the gist of Socci's thesis. Maybe even excerpts. They will probably be in Italian, but there will be Google translations available and soon after better ones. Sounds absolutely fascinating.
