Jack Chick is a good source for some amusement. Alberto Romero Rivera was just one of them. You left out John Todd, supposed ex Grand Druid high Priest, and Dr. Rebecca Brown MD. i really hope that somebody in the Christian Community (either or both Catholic and Protestant), does a book on all of these theories.I'll admit it was first at Jack Chick that I heard about Alberto Romero. At first I thought that he was a made up character for their comic "Crusaders" series, but after some research, I have found that he was a real person.
Weather or not Alberto Romero was wacky, I don't know. My research has shown that he did exist, he did tour various colleges and churches, and that he did talk out in regards to a "Black Pope" as being the real power behind the Catholic Church.

From the article:
Martin: .... You dedicated the book to four Roman Catholics who, Im sure, no one has ever heard of: Charles Chiniquy, Jeremiah Crowley, Emmett McLaughlin, and Alberto Rivera. Why them?
Phelps: Because those Roman Catholic men were priests; they left the priesthood and told the truth about what was really happening. And all four of them, except one, I think Emmett McLaughlin, paid with their life. Chiniquy was the great exposer of the Jesuit assassination of President Lincoln, when he wrote his masterpiece Fifty Years In The Church Of Rome in 1886. He proves that Lincoln was assassinated by the Jesuits, and that it was covered-up by our government at the time.

I just took a look at the website and found red flags...the idea of the priest at his mothers death bed getting in contact with the Pope for some special blessing or whatever is ridiculous. It would be extremely difficult for a Bishop to get such an action for his own mother, and it just wouldn't be done as the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick(Extreme Unction) would be done. The whole story seemed contrived to fit an agenda. There will always be religious hucksters...even in the New Testament someone wanted to buy powers from the Apostles...nothing new.
