ROMAN CONGREGATION DECREES PROHIBITING CERTAIN WORKS
RELATIVE TO
MESSAGES ATTRIBUTED TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY AT LA SALETTE
Including: "Rome Will Lose The Faith And Become The Seat Of Antichrist"
CLARIFICATION: To circumvent any misunderstanding - I wish to
advise that I concur with the Bishop of Grenoble's decision regarding the apparition of the Blessed
Virgin Mary at La Salette in 1846, that the apparition is "worthy of belief." The intent of these
articles is to demonstrate that a) the "message" and/or "secret" of La Salette does NOT form an
integral part of the Bishop's (and Church's) approval, and b) that the "message" and/or "secret" (which
has the BVM say that "Rome will lose the Faith...etc.") is an 1879 corruption of the recorded 1851
"message", and c) that the corrupted 1879 "message" and/or "secret" has been condemned by the
Church - culminating with being placed on the Index of Forbidden Books - the Imprimatur in 1879
of the Bishop of Lecce notwithstanding!

DECRETUM
CIRCA VULGO DICTUM "SECRET DE LA SALETTE"
Ad Supremae huius Congregationis notitiam pervenit quosdam non
deesse, etiam ex ecclesiastico coetu, qui, posthabitis responsionibus ac
decisionibus ipsius S. Congregationis, per libros, opuscula atque articulos
in foliis periodicis editos, sive subscriptos sive sine nomine, de
sic dicto Secret de la Salette, de diversis ipsius formis, nec non de eius
praesentibus aut futuris temporibus accommodatione disserere ac
pertractare pergunt; idque non modo absque Ordinariorum licentia, verum
etiam contra ipsorum vetitum. Ut hi abusus qui verae pietati officiunt,
et ecclesiasticam auctoritatem magnopere laedunt, cohibeantur, eadem
Sacra Congregatio mandat omnibus fidelibus cuiuscumque regionis ne
sub quovis praetextu vel quavis forma, nempe per libros, opuscula aut
articulos sive subscriptos sive sine nomine, vel alio quovis modo, de
memorato subiecto disserant aut pertractent. Quicumque vero hoc
Sancti Officii praeceptum violaverint, si sint sacerdotes, priventur omni,
quam forte habeant, dignitate et per Ordinarium loci ab audiendis
sacramentalibus confessionibus et a missa celebranda suspendantur:
et si sint laici ad Sacramenta non admittantur donee resipiscant.
Utrique insuper subiaceant sanctionibus latis tum a Leone PP. XIII per
Constitutionem Officiorum ac munerum contra eos qui libros de rebus
religiosis tractantes sine legitima Superiorum licentia publicant, cum
ab Urbano VIII per decretum Sanctissimus Dominus Noster datum die
13 martii 1625 contra eos qui assertas revelationes sine Ordinariorum
licentia vulgant. Hoc autem decretum devotionem non vetat erga
Beatissimam Virginem sub titulo Reconciliatricis vulgo de la Salette
nuncupatam.
Datum Romae, ex Aedibus Sancti 0fficii, die 21 decembris 1915.

THE SUPREME SACRED CONGREGATION OF THE HOLY OFFICE
GIVES A DECREE
CONCERNING THE COMMONLY CALLED "SECRET OF LA SALETTE."
It has come to the attention of this Supreme Congregation that certain ones
are not lacking, even from among the ecclesiastic assemblage who, responses
and decisions of this Holy Congregation itself having been disregarded, do
proceed to discuss and examine through books, small works and articles
edited in periodicals, whether signed or without a name, concerning the
so-called Secret of La Salette, its diverse forms and its relevance to present
and future times; and, this not only without permission of the Ordinaries,
but, also against their ban.
So that these abuses which oppose true piety and greatly wound ecclesiastical
authority might be curbed, the same Sacred Congregation orders all the faithful
of any region not to discuss or investigate under any pretext, neither through
books, or little works or articles, whether signed or unsigned, or in any other
way of any kind, about the mentioned subject. Whoever, indeed, violates this
precept of the Holy Office, if they are priests, are deprived of all dignity
and suspended by the local ordinary from hearing sacramental confessions and
from offering Mass: and, if they are lay people, they are not permitted to the
sacraments until they repent.
Moreover, let people be subject to the sanctions given both by Pope Leo XIII
through the Constitution of the offices and responsibilities against those who
publish books dealing with religious things without legitimate permission of
superiors and by Urban VIII through the decree "Sanctissimus Dominus Noster"
given on 13th March 1625 against those who publish asserted revelations without
the permission of ordinaries. However, this decree does not forbid devotion
towards the Blessed Virgin under the title of Reconciliatrix commonly of La
Salette.
Given at Rome on 21st December, 1915.
