Funny, none of the Catholic gossip sites on "private revelations" mention this. However, an earlier "vision" in LaSalette has lots of apocolyptic forecasts. The Pope dismissed this late report, which came years later and was probably made up. I suspect the same thing here: too much "secrecy", and hardly any "spiritual" aspects. Sounds like a pious fraud.

Most "secrets" are not forecasts but warnings. One of the "secrets" of Fatima was a vision of hell. Another was that Russia would persecute Christians. But the secrets have little or nothing to do with the main messages, which are usually about the importance of prayer and repentance.

Of course, it's much more fun to discuss "visions" than to pray, fast, do the duties of our daily lives, and repent of our sins.

And The National Catholic Register and The Wanderer (for those who don't recognize the names, they are weekly Catholic newspapers) have had nothing about this, either.
