Summary: Curiously obscure booklet by prominent Roman Catholic author
Comment: A straightforward and informative booklet, written by a conservative Roman Catholic scholar in good standing who has elsewhere written extensively, with Imprimatur, to encourage the study of mystic phenomena.

The subtitle is "What Rome Really Said." To the extent that Rome (in the sense of its entire hierarchy) has said anything at all this booklet is accurately titled. After reading the presentation, however, one must also note with sobriety that equally important is what Rome has apparently not said. Of course, a variety of conclusions can certainly be based on this curious state of affairs. The same is also true of search results in the vast official Vatican.va site, where an inquiry for "Medjugorje" will surprisingly yield -- absolutely nothing. Contrast this with the abundant references to Fatima and Lourdes on Vatican.va, and it is difficult to avoid wondering how an earnest pilgrim, ostensibly dedicated to the imitation of Christ and faithful to the Magisterium, could allow the never ending river of messages from Medjugorje to become life's central preoccupation. Those who consider these matters worthy of sober reflection may find "Twenty Questions About Medjugorje" of interest.

Although this book's listing frequently states that the title is currently unavailable, the booklet's actual availability can be independently verified simply by contacting Pangaeus Press...

Summary: Needed information. Great to read.
Comment: If you're attracted to the mystic elements of the Church, you need to read this book (but first read KOJ's big book on Apparitions). I knew there was something uncomfortable about the so-called Marian appariations at Medjugorje. Here's the real story...how Rome feels as well as a brief overview of what constitues an apparition that is "worthy of belief" (there's very few of them). Great book, easy to read, informative.
