An alarming letter to the Holy Father

                                                                                                                                                        His Holiness

                                                                                                                                                       Benedict XVI

                                                                                                                                               Città del Vaticano

Your Holiness,

the news has spread around the world these days that on 15th January 2011 You are going to sign a decree of confirmation of a miracle that is to open the door to the beatification cause in the case of John Paul II. Some sources even mention beatification as early as April.

We regard this step as a tragic mistake of destructive nature which will have an impact on the whole Church, on the Catholic faith and on the salvation of many believers. We ask whether the alleged miracle of the healing of a religious sister is sufficient in the case of John Paul II?!

Besides his brave opposition to abortions and several other harmful aspects there were acts present in his life which contradict God’s revelation as well as the 2000-year tradition of the Christian faith. We mean the gesture in Assisi in the years 1986 and 2002 and many other syncretistic gestures during his journeys throughout the world. John Paul II never explained the gesture in Assisi and never pointed out the error and a serious sin of idolatry committed in the temples of the Catholic Church in Assisi with the participation of representatives of pagan religions.

From that time on, syncretism has started to spread as an avalanche in the whole Catholic Church. Subsequently, on many other occasions John Paul II acknowledged the syncretistic gesture in Assisi (idolatry, degradation of Christian faith to the same level with pagan religions). So, one cannot speak about a little mistake but about a concrete line which John Paul II promoted in the Church. Since then many syncretistic centres were established in the Catholic Church, e.g. Benedictine ashrams, Jesuit centre of Zen meditation or so-called Movement “Khrist Bhakta” in India founded by “Indian Missionary Society”. The gesture in Assisi is a serious dogmatic and pastoral error, far more serious than the error of Pope Honorius I who was excommunicated from the Church after his death.

Your Holiness, do not let Yourself be manipulated by the apostatical hierarchy into the confirmation of John Paul II’s beatification because thereby You practically approve of the apostatical spirit which has brought total decay of the saving faith in the Church. For these crimes a curse is coming upon the whole Europe and upon the whole Catholic world in the likeness of the world dictatorship built on antilaws and leading to the genocide of the mankind. 

Praying for You and asking for Your blessing
