Cardinal Puljic , However , Recognizes ThAt The Phenomenon Has 'Pastoral Significance,' Because 'The Medjugorje Phenomenon Is Not Just Gathering Steadfast From Bosnia...

For thirty years, a small group of "visionaries" have claimed the Blessed Virgin Mary has appeared twice each month in the city of Medjugorje, on the southwestern edge of Bosnia and Herzegovina.Many of holiday makers come here attempting to find some Medjugorje hotel where they stay sometimes two weeks. While the purported apparitions have attracted an estimated 30,000,000 pilgrims since they began on June twenty-four, 1981, two successive bishops of the diocese of Mostar-Duvno, in which Medjugorje lies, have ruled the phenomenon is not confirmed to be of mystical origin (non constat de supernaturalitate) and have attempted to limit pilgrimages to the site. Their judgment has been supported by the Bishops ' Meeting of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which issued an official statement in April 1991 that Vinko Cardinal Puljic, the archbishop of Sarajevo, recalled in Nov 2009 when he declared that "The doctrinal issue of the Medjugorje phenomenon is resolved."

Cardinal Puljic nevertheless , acknowledges the phenomenon has "pastoral significance," because "The Medjugorje phenomenon is not only gathering trustworthy from Bosnia, but from every part of the world, and in places where folk gather to offer prayers God gives his blessing." That doesn't imply the alleged apparitions are real but simply that sensible bishops need to deal with the effects of the purported apparitions in a pastoral demeanour.

Their attempts to do so nevertheless , have repeatedly been complicated by forces from outside of the area who think the alleged apparitions to be real. His Excellency Ratko Peric, the current bishop of Mostar-Duvno, highlighted one such case on January 2, 2010, when he released a statement regarding a visit by Austrian cardinal Christoph Schnborn to Medjugorje.

And now, another respected voice has weighed in : Fr. Gabriele Amorth, often called "the Vatican's exorcist."

Dad Amorth has received much publicity since his publication in 1999 of An Exorcist Tells His Story (compare prices) and its 2002 follow up, An Exorcist : More Stories (compare prices). An exorcist for the diocese of Rome (not technically , "the Vatican's exorcist"), Dad Amorth seems a really holy and brave man. His actions as an exorcist place him on the front lines of the spiritual battle with the forces of heinousness and that remains true even if he has, occasionally, exaggerated the amount of exorcisms he has performed. (Pa Amorth makes a claim to have performed 70,000 exorcisms between 1986 and 2010, or roughly 8 each day, 7 days per week, 365 days a year.)

What his actions as an exorcist do not do nevertheless , is give him a special understanding of what is or isn't occurring at Medjugorje, let alone a special expertise to communicate about it, far less the right authority to make pronouncements on the authenticity of the apparitions.

That authority lies, as it mostly has, with the local bishop, and his judgment remains the canonical statement on the events at Medjugorje, unless and till the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Religion, which convened a special commission in March 2010 to look at the purported apparitions, pronounces otherwise.

Put simply, anything Father Amorth says about Medjugorje has as much weight as anything I'd say about it. He may accept that the local bishop is wrong in his judgment, but the Church announces it's the local bishop, and not Dad Amorth or I, who's got the authority to make that judgment.

And the Church does so for excellent reasons : Catholics who start distrusting / mistrusting the Church and trusting instead in the declarations of personal revelation are treading on extremely perilous ground. And that ground, alas, is ground that Father Amorth knows all too wellwhich makes his comments all the more out of place, and so disturbing as reported tagza.com.

Excerpt: The German Peasants' War, or the Deutscher Bauernkrieg in German, was a widespread popular revolt in the German-speaking areas of Central Europe, 15241526. At its height in the spring and summer of 1525, the conflict involved an estimated 300,000 peasants: contemporary estimates put the dead at 100,000. It consisted, like the preceding Bundschuh movement and the Hussite Wars, of a series of both economic and religious revolts in which peasants, town-dwellers and nobles participated. In mounting their insurrection, peasants faced several basic problems. The democratic nature of their organization complicated their military organization. They were further frustrated by lack of such important resources as artillery and cavalry. Most of them had little, if any, military experience and their resources were insufficient for them to hire mercenaries who did. Their opposition, on the other hand, had experienced military leaders and deep pockets with which to fund military operations against them. Despite the obstacles, the German Peasants' War was Europe's largest and most widespread popular uprising prior to the French Revolution of 1789. It involved townspeople, rural dwellers and aristocrats; it incorporated rhetoric from the emerging religious reform movement, through which the peasants sought legitimation. The war broke out in separate insurrections, beginning in the southwestern part of what is now Germany and neighboring Alsace, and spread in subsequent insurrections to the central and eastern areas of Germany and present-day Austria. After the uprising in Germany was suppressed, it flared briefly in several of the Swiss Cantons. In historiography, the German Peasants' War also formed the basis of Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx's concept of ... More:
