When Paulo Sesto Beato? (1998) was published, the book was sent to every single Italian bishop. None of them acknowledged receipt; none challenged any of Don Villa’s claims.

Here is the book:

Paul VI Beatified?

And what did Francis do?

At closing Mass for the Synod Pope Francis beatifies Paul VI

All of the post-Vatican II popes will be canonized (with probably the exception of JPI). This way Vatican II is canonized by NewChurch.

What follows is an excerpt from the preface in the book, “Paul VI Beatified?”

It perfectly describes Pope Francis, also.

“Paul VI was always an enigma to all, as Pope John XXIII him- self observed. But today, after his death, I believe that can no longer be said, in light of the fact that in his numerous writings, speeches and actions, the figure of Paul VI is clear of any ambiguity. Even if proving this point is not so easy or simple, since he was a very com- plex character, both when speaking of his “preferences”, by way of suggestions and insinuations, and also for his jumping abruptly from one idea to another, and when he opted for Tradition, but then im- mediately preferred “novelty”; the whole thing in a language that was often very inaccurate.”
