Here is the very very sad truth - indeed the Parkinson's may lead to some degree of mental impairment.I am not compentant to judge the Pope's mental health as I am not a doctor, nor am I in his presense to see what the reality is.
But I do know this much: what it is like to be kept by one's "Jailer's". After hospitalization for a life-threatening circumstance, I was in a nursing home for a few months.....now I am way too young to be a resident, but it was a valuable lesson. Now I know how he feels. You are totally at your captor's mercy. You have no freedom. Your very health and diet can be altered against you will. You could be "snuffed" without a second thought, should that be desired. It is that ugly - and that simple.
Please realize for a moment that diet has a lot to do with health, metal aclarity, and lucidity. Play with someone's diet enough, and you render them susceptable to suggestion - you can even make them into a puppet if desired. There is also the very real symdrome in such circumstances where one can "identify" with one's captors - establishing seeming freidnliness, as a means to survival.
Dont' believe me? Read up on it - the books are out there. In a nursing home they want the residents dumb, quiet, compliant. Need I say more?
Even so with His Holiness. The Vatican is riddled with moles, apostates, and mental defectives. Modernists who have a vested interest in seeing an agenda advanced.
I realize that there are some who will not believe or acept this. So be it. But JPII has never been in control of the Vatican...never.....not even in 1978 when his reign began. Now in his infirmity and dotage he is very clearly not in control.......and is being controlled.
His enemies know that they cannot do away with him - not just yet, as he is under the special protection of Mary. But they will do all in their power (and have) to thwart any good he might wish to do, and to disobey, twist, and obfuscate his words. Or to put words in his mouth, which are not his own.
"when you are young you will dress yourself and go where you will - bug when you are old you will stretch forth your hands, and another will dress you and lead you where you will not go"......words of Christ to St. Peter.
Remember - the words of Scripture exist both in and out of time......and have meaning both in the time in which they were written, and in a future tense. Think about it....."when you are old" can refer to a man's dotage.....and at the same time can refer to Peter as symbolic of all Popes......and of the end of the line.
