Vatican Doctors Photo of Benedict's Praise for Francis

By The Associated Press
VATICAN CITY — The Vatican admitted Wednesday that it altered a photo sent to the media of a letter from retired Pope Benedict XVI about Pope Francis. The manipulation changed the meaning of the image in a way that violated photojournalist industry standards.
The Vatican's communications office released the photo of the letter on Monday on the eve of Francis' five-year anniversary. The letter was cited by Monsignor Dario Vigano, chief of communications, to rebut critics of Francis who question his theological and philosophical heft and say he represents a rupture from Benedict's doctrine-minded papacy.
In the part of the letter that is legible in the photo, Benedict praised a new volume of books on the theology of Francis as evidence of the "foolish prejudice" of his critics. The book project, Benedict wrote, "helps to see the interior continuity between the two pontificates, with all the differences in style and temperament."
The Vatican admitted to The Associated Press on Wednesday that it blurred the two final lines of the first page where Benedict begins to explain that he didn't actually read the books in question. He wrote that he cannot contribute a theological assessment of Francis as requested by Vigano because he has other projects to do.

I found myself running to warn my adult children that this was about to happen, and there were only precious few moments to prepare. By the time I had arrived at the home where they were visiting their friends to warn them, until the events happened, was only minutes, literally. We as believers were protected, but the devastation was massive. I asked Father this morning as soon as I woke up if He wanted to speak to this. He has given me many warnings like this to post, and He has been so merciful in warning us to prepare, first and foremost spiritually, then physically as we are led. I wondered if He is going to continue to warn, because He has already given us so much, but because of my position as a watchman, He reminded me to continue to warn until He tells me...

Prominent Swiss Newspaper: “Why does [Francis] not simply issue a denial?” Prominent Swiss Newspaper: “Why does [Francis] not simply issue a denial?” To avoid being caught in lies and incriminating himself. Benedict wouldn’t be allowed to speak. Recall the report that he handed to Francis over 5 years ago, and nothing has come of it. Buried in the secret archives, or burned, most likely. SWITZERLAND, August 31, 2018 ( LifeSiteNews ) – One of the most prominent German-speaking daily newspapers in Switzerland is calling upon Pope Francis and Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI to come out with some clarifications concerning the Viganò report. About Pope Francis, the journalist asks: “Why does he not simply issue a denial?” Michael Meier, writing for the national newspaper Tages-Anzeiger from Zurich, Switzerland, reports in an August 30 article on the Viganò claim that Pope Francis had been informed about the McCarrick scandal but still made the predatory prelate one ...
