  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

So I just read a book called AA-1025. Has anyone else read it?

It's quite interesting although not proven to be what it claims to be.

Here's the book description from Aquinisandmore.....

In the 1960's, a French Catholic nurse, Marie Carre, attended an auto-crash victim who was brought into her hospital in a city she purposely does not name. The man lingered there near death for a few hours and then died. He had no identification on him, but he had a briefcase in which there was a set of quasi-biographical notes. She kept these notes and read them, and because of their extraordinary content, decided to publish them. The result is this little book, AA-1025-The Memoirs of an Anti Apostle, about a Communist who purposely entered the Catholic priesthood (along with many, many others) with the intent to subvert and destroy the Church from within.
This little book, his strange yet fascinating and illuminating set of biographical notes, tells of his commission to enter the priesthood, his various experiences in the seminary, and the means and methods he used and promoted to help effect from within the auto-dissolution of the Catholic Church.

Absorbing and compelling reading from beginning to end, The Memoirs of an Anti Apostle is must reading for every Catholic today and for all who would understand just what has happened to undermine the Catholic Church since the 1960's. No one will read this book without a profound assent that something just like what is described here must surely have happened on a wide scale in order to have dis-rupted the life of the Catholic Church so dramatically.

It's a very interesting book, shocking if it's true.

Never heard of it - but it sounds interesting.

I don't usually believe conspiracy theories. I don't feel the Communists are/were subtle enough to try to dismantle Catholicism from within, but you never know.

I believe that a number of people entered the priesthood and religious orders in that period with a desire, not to follow the teachings of the magesterium, but to change and subvert them. But whether it was a conspiracy is another matter.

I also usually avoid conspiracy theories. The book was given to me to critique. It's sad to read in some ways as the infiltrator "played" on the priest's in confession by going in and telling them exactly what he was doing, knowing that they couldn't do anything to him. There were some beautiful moments as well when his "girlfriend" who was catholic wrote to beg him to stop his deception. She later entered the Carmelites.

Well many feared Masons would destroy the Church from within (many popes warned against them and current Catholics believe there is nothing to fear), and I certainly believe they have been trying and still are.
The interesting thing in this book is how he wanted to change terminology and embrace all religions so that nothing was "too Catholic". If there is truth to this story he was in a seminary in Canada in the 40's and spoke of the work he had wanted to do through the council. It goes so far as to say that Vatican II didn't work out as they had hoped by some mysterious suppression of their goals but that they would still work to undermine the Church through the "Spirit of the Council". Sadly much of what the book talks about has happened although not all of it.

I think there is greater danger to the Church from the strength of the ever pervasive secular culture, and it's dominance of a mass media never before seen on such a grand and seductive scale. The voice of the Church is absolutely drowned out by it's din.
And that was the plan of the MAsons and leftists from the beginning.
