OPEN INVITATION TO BURN TORTILLAS

This is to Catholics what a mail order doctorate is to a Fundamental Baptist preacher. For a small investment you can easily fake an apparition. Here is the "Father's" instruction:





In his book Discernment of Apparitions. Marian Apparitions Today. Why So Many?, by Fr. Edward D. O'Connor, C.S.C., (Queenship Publishing Company),

Fr. O'Connor states that: "Some people refuse to give any consideration whatsoever to a reported apparition until it has been officially approved. This is not the attitude which the Church asks of us, and it can deprive us of the graces brought by the apparition.

The Church normally waits a long time before issuing a pronouncement about a particular apparition, and about most of them it says nothing. If we refuse to pay any heed to one until it has been approved, the chances are we will never have that opportunity... Moreover, this would actually hinder the action of the Church, which looks especially at the fruits when evaluating such phenomenon.

If everyone waited for the Church to make a pronouncement, there would be no fruits, and in fact no occasion for the Church to make any judgment at all. If people had waited until the Church pronounced on Lourdes or Fatima, we would not have heard of either of them today. Respect for the pastoral thority of the bishop does not mean denying to lay people any judgment whatsoever, but giving to each the due measure of respect." pages 106-107
