Why does your skepticism not surprise me in the least. I get the vibe from you that you're like Vincent Price's character in "A Song of Bernadette". Or perhaps Dostoevsky's Grand Inquisitor. What messy "message" are you referring to?

[sinkspur]

the many "messages" pronounced in the early years by the mouths of the so-called "seers", especially those that praised the disobedience of some Franciscan priests in Mostar, and berated the local bishop who conscientiously abided by Canon law, that belittled the highest decisions of the Church regarding the administration of the diocese,

This is from The Bishop of Mostar, May, 2004. It is the local bishop who determines whether apparitions are genuine, and two bishops have said they are not.

Lots and lots of people are skeptical of Medjugorje. With Fatima and the other apparitions there was a period of time, specific to the apparition and then the appearances ceased. This hasn't happened with Medjugorje and the seers apparently can conjure the Blessed Mother up when they are on the road i.e. England, the US. You also have to take a look at what these children are doing as adults, how do they live?
