“Marian apparitions in Medjugorje “

Anytime I see this treated as an approved apparition I have doubts about the groups loyalty to the magesterium. It has been condemned by the Bishop who is the only one who can give approval that an apparition is indeed supernatural and is not contradictory to the Catholic faith.

The movie that is cited in the OP, “Catholicism: Crisis of Faith” has been proven to be filled with errors and outright lies.

‘loyalty to the magicsterical’ is part of the idolatry.

God alone deserves our loyalty of that level.

It seems that most every time you guys state a Catholic position, it is only a small portion of the actual position...Why is that???

As we saw in the 1998 Vatican CDF statement on Medjugorje, the present local bishop's personal stance against Medjugorje is not the official position of the Church, and therefore it is most legitimate for a member of the Church to have personal belief in Medjugorje's authenticity until the Church completes its final evaluation. This permission is granted by the authoritative teaching of the Holy See and the former Yugoslavian Bishops' 1991 statement. This permission to personally believe in Medjugorje would of course include any of the Franciscan priests in Medjugorje who choose to give their own personal assent to the apparitions.
