and special guests John Vennari, editor of Catholic
Family News, and Coralie Graham, editor
of The Fatima Crusader, discuss the

Summary: Is the Third
Secret of Fatima completely contained within
the 4-page document released by the Vatican
on June
26, 2000 or has it been written down as
two distinct documents? Read the evidence presented
in this article which clearly supports the existence
of a second document, and judge for yourself.
Summary: Italian journalist
Solideo Paolini reports in detail on his meetings
with Archbishop Capovilla, former personal Secretary
of Pope John XXIII, in which Mr. Paolini obtained
the crucial testimony of the Archbishop that
there are two texts of the Third
Secret.
Summary: In response to an
alleged denial by Archbishop Capovilla of his
explosive testimony previously given to Italian
journalist Solideo Paolini — with explicit
permission given to publish — concerning
the existence of a yet-to-be disclosed part
of the Third
Secret of Fatima, Dr. Paolini makes several
observations regarding this “denial”,
first published in a women’s lifestyle
and fashion magazine and coming ten months after
the widespread publication of the Archbishop’s
original declaration.

Expert: Antonio
Socci(Italian journalist and
author of Il Quarto Segreto di Fatima [“The
Fourth Secret of Fatima”] published
in Italy in November 2006).
Summary: Is Antonio Socci,
author of Il Quarto Segreto di Fatima (“The
Fourth Secret of Fatima”) published in
Italy in November 2006, falsely accusing Vatican
Secretary of StateCardinal
Bertone of deliberately hiding part of the Third
Secret? Is he a “liar” or “someone
who consciously lies”? Or has Cardinal
Bertone, Vatican Secretary of State, used his
book L’Ultima Veggente di Fatima (“The
Last Visionary of Fatima”) and the authority
of his office to further cover up the truth
regarding the Third Secret and to silence his
opposition?
Expert: Antonio
Socci(Italian journalist and author
of Il Quarto Segreto di Fatima [“The
Fourth Secret of Fatima”] published in
Italy in November 2006).
Summary: Porta
a Porta(“Door to Door”, one
of Italy’s most popular television shows,
which has provided a forum for both Italian and
world celebrities of all stripes) handed Vatican
Secretary of StateCardinal
Bertone a gift-wrapped opportunity to quash
his critics — especially Italian journalist
Antonio Socci, one of Italy’s most respected
Catholic intellectuals. However, on this program
Bertone failed to address a single one of
Socci’s contentions made in The Fourth
Secret of Fatima, thus conceding Socci’s
entire case that a part of the Third
Secret still has not been released by the Vatican.
As a Catholic journalist, Mr. Socci is seeking
the truth; but one might be led to wonder: What
are the motives for the Cardinal’s strange
behavior?
Summary: An interview Italian
journalist Solideo Paolini had with Archbishop
Capovilla, former personal secretary to Pope John
XXIII, in July 2006 may have been the catalyst
for the ensuing confrontation between Vatican
Secretary of StateCardinal
Bertone and Antonio
Socci, author of Il Quarto Segreto di Fatima (“The
Fourth Secret of Fatima”) published in November
2006. When asked if there were two texts regarding
the Third
Secret, the Archbishop responded “Precisely
so.” The Cardinal’s book, L’Ultima
Veggente di Fatima (“The Last Visionary
of Fatima”), published in May 2007, did not
refute this comment nor any of Socci’s other
evidence demonstrating that Bertone’s handling
of the alleged “release” of the Third
Secret in June 2000 was a cover-up.
Summary: This article chronicles
the controversy concerning whether the Third
Secret of Fatima had been fully revealed on June
26, 2000 — from the release of Antonio
Socci’s book The Fourth Secret of
Fatima, published in Italy in November 2006,
to the physical assault by Vatican bodyguards of
Socci and another Italian journalist, whose research
leads them to conclude that there is still a part
of the Third Secret yet to be released, at a September
2007 event in Rome, in which Vatican
Secretary of StateCardinal
Bertone conducted a formal presentation of
his book The Last Visionary of Fatima which
propounds the entire Third Secret has been revealed. Antonio
Socci, an acclaimed Italian journalist and
television personality, originally sided with the
Vatican’s interpretation of the Third Secret;
but upon closer investigation of this matter the
evidence led him to the conclusion that there is
more to the Third Secret than what the Vatican
has released.
Summary: In a time when those
who argue that the Third
Secret of Fatima was not entirely released
on June
26, 2000 are viewed as “extremists, alarmists,
with nary a worthwhile argument to make”,
it is now a very momentous time because help from
a most unlikely source has come concerning this
controversy. Antonio
Socci — acclaimed Italian journalist,
television personality, personal friend of Vatican
Secretary of StateCardinal
Bertone and author of Il Quarto Segreto
di Fatima (“The Fourth Secret of Fatima”)
published in November 2006 — originally sided
with the Vatican’s interpretation of the
Third Secret and set out to write a book to disprove
the claims of traditional Fatima devotees that
the Third Secret was not fully divulged. However,
after an extensive investigation of the evidence,
he concluded that there does exist two texts of
the Third Secret, one of which has yet to be revealed
to the world.

reproduced text from The Message
of Fatima in which Cardinal
Bertone declares: "The decision of His
Holiness Pope John Paul II to make public the
third part of the 'secret' of Fatima brings
to an end a period of history marked by tragic
human lust for power and evil ..." This
ludicrous assertion prompted Catholics to ask
why the Vatican had not ended the period of
tragic human lust for power and evil by revealing
the vision of "the
Bishop dressed in white" back in 1960,
when Our Lady wished it to be revealed.

Cardinal
Bertone's Last
Visionary of Fatima purports to be an answer
to Socci's book, but fails to address any of
his points, while making new disclosures that
are devastating to Bertone's claim that he has
revealed the entire Third Secret.
After
appearing on television to display the text
of the vision of "the Bishop
dressed in white," Bertone attends an
event headlined as "The whole truth and
nothing but the truth" — an ironic
commentary on the doubts surrounding his purported
disclosure of the entire Third Secret.
