Once again your being sloppy. A bishop can say the sky is green in a letter, but that would not be an official finding unless the Bishop did it according to Congregation Doctrine of the Faith guidelines.

What I said above was an example. Your link http://www.newjerusalem.com/condemnation.html Neither has the word condemnation or condemned in it. Neither does it have the words supernatural or any of the words that coincide with a finding:

constat de supernaturalitate: the event is confirmed to be of supernatural origin

constat de non supernaturalitate: the event is confirmed to be of non-supernatural origin

non constat de supernaturalitate: the event is not confirmed to be of supernatural origin

Rather I suggest you are looking at blather and presuming from that.

Bishop Perić wrote a personal letter declaring his position to be that nothing supernatural was occurring in Međugorje. Archbishop Tarcisio Bertone, the Secretary to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith that was presided over at the time by Cardinal Ratzinger, wrote in a letter to the bishop of Saint-Denis de la Réunion that "what Bishop Perić said in his letter... is and remains his personal opinion." Thus, no one was to regard Bishop Perić's statement as an official Church declaration. The intent of Bertone's statement was to clarify that the authority to make official declarations about the status of Medjugorje now fell to the commission led by the Bosnian bishops' conference, which was still investigating the apparitions.

Most everyone who is knowledgeable on this subject knows that their was at least two commissions on Medjugorje that reached non-conclusive findings that I have explained to you before(is not a condemnation or approval). However, the Vatican found the Bishop of Mostar predjudiced against Medj. in his public statements and the Vatican intervened and pulled authority and is now doing its own official commission.

If the Bishop of Mostar and its commision had 'condemned' Medjugorje then it would be case closed and the Vatican would be left with little or no options.
