  The Vatican Deception

  Putting aside religious beliefs for a moment, this is a deep and thorough investigation into an institution showing how its members can undermine its best intentions. The conflict of whether or not to follow the instructions of an apparition of Mary from 100 years ago is contested from within and after a century we are still trying to figure out why there is such dissension among the ranks over what seems to be a core belief of the institution. Paul Stark's exhaustive research excellently illuminates this crisis, but unfortunately, cannot offer a resolution. Perhaps if the executive branch of the Vatican watch this film, they will be able to come together one way or another.

  It sickens me that Canadian theatres are showing such trash. Father Nicholas Gruner was a well-known anti-Semite and belonged to the Society of Saint Pius X. The members of Society of Saint Pius X are radical traditionalists that spew hatred towards Jewish people, as well as many other groups of people. The last thing the world needs right now are more people spreading hate!!!!

  I attended the premier in Toronto and was truly looking forward to it. However, I was sadly disappointed, not so much with this subject ( essentially Fr. Gruner, whom I knew personally) but truly disappointed with the lack of understanding and insight into this entire period in Church history and the implications for the faithful by the producer the director and by the onstage presenter.The question period after the showing was very, very difficult to watch and listen to. It was apparent that though the producers had spent 7 years working on this documentary they truly failed to understand what is really at stake here not only for Catholics but for all people.The producers truly need to speak to someone that has an understanding of the history of this entire period in the Catholic Church.They need to understand the historical significance of the date October 13 ( not just as the final apparition of Our Lady of Fatima in 1917 wherein the dancing of the sun was witnessed by over 70,000 people on site and thousands at a distance from the actual site) prior to these events. Oct 13, 1884, is the date of the vision experienced by Pope Leo XIII following his morning mass wherein those present at the mass saw the pope virtually collapse.After these events (that took place exactly 33 years prior to the events of Oct 13, 2017, 33 years is significant given that Jesus was physically on earth for 33 years.) So what is the vision of Pope Leo XIII and why is it related to the events of Fatima?After Mass on Oct 13, 1884, Pope Leo XIII heard voices coming from the general vicinity of the tabernacle. He understood these voices to be the voices of Our Lord Jesus Christ and Satan.The demon boasted that if he was to be given 100 years he could destroy the "Catholic Church". In addition to time, he required additional power "a greater influence over those who give themselves to my service".Our Lord Jesus Christ, reportedly replied: "you will be given the time and the power".It was up

  I am in awe of the moviemaker for having an incredible amount of patience, dedication and commitment to this project. Just from that standpoint alone, I highly recommend that everyone goes to watch this movie. The documentary is incredibly well researched, thought-out and is simply pointing out the facts. I was not familiar with this topic before I went to watch the movie and came out with much more understanding and knowledge on the topic. I have immense respect for this documentary and all the behind-the-scenes efforts it must have taken to get it out for the public to see. I hope everyone goes out to see it. Beautifully written and directed. The subject is heavy and intense and you can sense the writer's passion in every shot of this documentary. Excellent work!

  I've been aware of the Fatima prophecies for many years now, and about the problems in the church and the warnings about them. This documentary validates all of it with impressive detail and structure. Obviously well researched. My wife and I are still talking about it even days after we saw it. I hope this film will be seen by everyone.

  There are some disturbing things going on in the Vatican that are explained in this film. The news is not pleasant, but I'd rather be aware of it. Thanks to the makers of this doc for helping us to understand!
