Wielgus acknowledged Friday that he did have contact with the secret service, but he said that documents indicating he collaborated were written by the secret police and reflected their account of events, not the truth.
The allegations first surfaced in the right-wing Gazeta
Polska weekly, two weeks after the Vatican appointed him archbishop of Warsaw. Wielgus initially denied any collaboration.
Wielgus, who had been bishop of Plock since 1999, said Friday that he was leaving his fate in the hands of the pope: "With full humility, I declare to the Holy Father that I will submit to each of his decisions."

AA-1025 suddenly sounds less like a work of crackpot conspiracy theory fiction.

AA-1025 suddenly sounds less like a work of crackpot conspiracy theory fiction. "AA-1025. Memoirs of a Communist injured in an auto accident in France; he died in the hospital a few hours later. The nurse who attended him kept his journals, read them and published them as AA-1025. He had become a Catholic priest to subvert the Church from within. Describes his methods & plans. Says there were many more like him. Very enlightening! 156 pgs, PB"
Whether that book is fiction or not hardily matters. It might as well be fact, because it's a fact that just like the human body, all that is good is perpetually bombarded by that which seeks to infiltrate and make ill.
There is no substitute for eternal vigilance.
