rladlof, next you're going to tell us, that it was a small article buried in the back of the rag.

@Zero G, can't say I have... conspiracy theory?

Does the ressurection of Jesus matter? If you believe in his teachings, do you really need him to be the son of God? What if Jesus slipped into a comma on the cross and he revived three days later, would that render his revelations to us impotent or would they remain important?

In God's Name has been at the top of the bestseller lists all over the world. It contains some of the most explosive and dramatic revelations ever published about the internal affairs of the Vatican.

During the late evening of September 28th or the early morning of September 29th, 1978, Pope John Paul 1, Albino Luciani, known as the smiling Pope, died only thirty-three days after his election.

David Yallop began his investigations into his death at the request of certain individuals resident in Vatican City who were disturbed by a cover-up of the true circumstances surrounding the discovery of the Pope's body. It is his conviction that murder was the fate of Albino Luciani and he presents this evidence in this enthralling book.

Over three years continual and exhaustive research, David Yallop uncovered a chain of corruption that linked leading figures in financial, political, criminal and clerical circles around the world in a conspiracy of awesome proportions. To this day the central questions raised in In God's Name remain unanswered. A new updated edition containing additional evidence is now available. From David Yallop's webite

@Zero G. was that the basis for the sub plot in Godfather III? Sounds similar.

@Gerald, we can only hope that the Catholic church will once again return to its roots as small groups meeting in backrooms and basements, as you prophesize, but that seems overly optimistic.

Greetings, Thom

Just in case you don't have enough to do as it is, here's something else.

Glen Beck is on His own crank about the Founding Fathers. He blows His gas about their history, and the history of their times. He presumes to know what they thought.

We need a Beck watch, that will square away His loads the next day.

If not you Thom, someone else attending to this board.

A small cloud of folks working togather perhaps.

I'm remiss. I should hee meself over to Media Maters, and see if theye're already on it.

Happy trails, folks.

@Zero G. if you've commented on it before, I probably missed it (or more likely forgot). But yeah the story of Godfather III sounds like they were using that concept. Interesting, until you mentioned this here, I always kinda' figured that Godfather III was just involving the RC church because of its prominence in Italy. I'll have to delve deeper into this book and its suppositions.
